Spring Cleaning
Spring is nearly here, and you’d love to take steps toward a fresh start—but you can barely see your feet through all the junk on your floor. And no, just picking everything up and throwing it in the closet will not make it go away. Never fear, Purpose in Place can help clear the way to a more organized life. Local duo Haike Tremblay and Sherry Halvorson are professional organizers who can bring their talents to any setting, from kids’ rooms to professional offices. With everything in its place, you’ll finally have time to think about other things besides "where’s my stapler?"

I just wanted to thank you for taking me shopping in my closet. It was so much fun and exciting to see that with the few items I had you were able to create several different outfits. It's also a good feeling to get rid of those things that really aren't flattering or don't fit well. The list of key pieces I should look for on my next shopping trip is also very helpful. So again, thank you for a wonderful time and for saving me money. Now I can look and feel great with what I already have!!

I am absolutely thrilled with the two day wardrobe/closet makeover! Day one was spent shopping since I already knew that I was in desperate need of new clothes for work (I work in an office). Everything that I purchased was perfect and I did not return one single item. I am the queen of returns, so that is quite an accomplishment! You really have an eye for picking out just the right pieces. Day two was spent organizing my closet including sorting, saving, discarding and best of all… putting outfits together. I was amazed at how many different outfits you created with the new clothes as well as with what I already owned. I didn’t know that some of my old clothes (and accessories) could look so good by simply combining them in different ways. Also, the transition from office to weekend is easy with all of the ideas you’ve given me. Thank you for being so motivating and positive. Your energy and sense of humor made it fun and easy. I had a great time and I got so much more accomplished in two days than I ever could have on my own. I look and feel great (and so does my closet)... thanks to you!

Thank you so much for helping us make our cluttered bedroom into the relaxing retreat we really wanted. Your organizing and design ideas were great and they helped us to keep our room functioning without hassle while keeping our needs in mind. I had a great time working with you and would highly recommend Purpose in Place Professional Organizing to anyone looking for help and motivation.

I would recommend hiring Purpose in Place Professional Organizing to everyone frustrated by too much stuff. Haike and Sherry really listen when assessing the space and make sure all your needs are met. They helped me get a picture of what I wanted and then created a plan for achieving it. They even gave me some great pointers on creating routines to keep the space organized. I’m delighted by the results, the education I got, and the fun we had!

Thank you for taking on my room and helping me turn it into a fabulously organized office and craft room. All of your organizing ideas were very helpful. Now everything truly has a purpose and a place. If anyone is looking for some motivation or inspiration Purpose in Place is who I would highly recommend.

Dear Haike and Sherry,

My daughter is spontaneously doing a happy dance in the office...
singing "I love the office" as I start to write this. That almost says it all. I just spent an hour working at my desk and, yes, I do love the new outlook. Changing the position of the desk in the room really does make a big difference. I probably would have left it the way it was for 10 yrs if you hadn't changed it. You took a lot of effort to make my home office more functional and more beautiful for my daughter and me. We love it! Thank you so much. I look forward to recommending you. Also my husband is envious of my new space and now he wants you to come back to organize his office too!

Last month when I moved I had Purpose in Place organize my kitchen. While I was dealing with the moving truck and trying to figure out where all the furniture and boxes needed to go, my kitchen was being organized from top to bottom. I truly feel that setting up a kitchen is the most stressful part of a move so I was pleasantly surprised with the amazing results. All the boxes were emptied and flattened, the dishes were washed and put away, the drawers and cupboards were all utilized to the best capacity and the pantry was well stocked. I have moved many times in my life but this time was definitely the easiest of them all thanks to Purpose in Place Professional Organizing.
