Welcome to the Declare Order Podcast where you will learn to "Declutter Like a Pro!"

I am Leslie, your host, and I am the owner of a professional organizing business called, "Declare Order Professional Organizing," where I help people get unstuck – right in the middle of their mess!

I know a lot of people out there resolve to "get organized" and listening to this special bundle of 6 episodes will help you do just that – as if you had a professional organizer right in your pocket! In each successive 10-15 minute episode You will learn to declutter like a pro.

I am a member of the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals, known as NAPO, and serve on the board for NAPO’s Chicago Chapter. You are listening to the fifth of six episodes, recorded as a bundle in honor of NAPO’s “Get Organized and Be Productive Month,” also known as, GO MONTH, occurring each January.

Episode 1: DO Set Goals for your organizing project
Episode 2: DO Make a Plan of Attack
Episode 3: Phase 1 - sort and organize
Episode 4: Phase 2 - containerize and test drive
Episode 5: Phase 3 - the details
Episode 6: DO Maintain your organized spaces

In this episode, I provide you with tips for Phase 3 of your organizing projects. As you listen, you can think about how you would finalize the details in your space! I encourage you to:

1. Consider what types of items are "living" in the space in order to determine what to purchase.
2. Consider how often you are accessing it to determine how durable it needs to be.
3. Consider the overall design and look of the space.

These steps will allow you to fine tune the results for your organizing projects in each Target Area! Please visit my website, www.declareorder.com for more information!
