I've just signed another lease on my apartment...the apartment I've lived in for five years. </p> <p>I move the furniture every six months. The second bedroom/den/storage room has never gelled. My bedroom is...iffy. The living room feels really busy.</p> <p>Since I picked up my dad's tv this summer, and a number of my parents' belongings, the place has felt a bit out of balance - and at least one closet is nearly useless.</p> <p>I know which of my things I love and which I could part with; I've just never found a layout for the apartment that suits me. I don't want (and can't afford) an interior decorator. Organization may be a problem, but not much of one - bills are paid on time, I know where to find extra post-its (for example), I can find my books.</p> <p>It's true that I have more "stuff" than apartment, although I'm working on it. </p> <p>I could use some help, and am willing to pay for it - but I'm not sure what I'm looking for. Someone to help me position the things I love, and get rid of the things I don't. Anyone know what that's called? </p> http://unclutterer.com/discuss/topic/hiring-a-professional-organizer#post-19 Fri, 13 Nov 2009 10:38:32 +0000 Brian Kieffer 19@http://unclutterer.com/discuss/ <p>Have you ever hired a professional organizer? Did it help? Were you able to come up with new organizing strategies or make some difficult uncluttering decisions that you might not have made on your own? </p>
