I bid from Southern California, and my daughter picked up for me in Seattle.

I have to admit I was pretty high maintenance. But they got me through it. I buy through CT here in Southern California. I've always had a great experience and it's nice to see that even though I was working with an office of the organization thousands of miles away, we still created the same great memories. Thank you all very much!

Entering the beautifully decorated living room (I'm still getting compliments on it) and a bed ready to sleep in on moving day brought me to happy tears. We were trying to move when my husband suddenly passed away. Next Step Transitions was my savior. They listened and understood what I needed to make a new, tiny, perfect home. They closed up the 2300 sq ft home of 20 years and set up the perfect 600 sq ft apartment for me. I'm astonished daily that there is nothing I need that's not at hand. Next Step Transition is the best decision ever.

Like little angels, they arrived on a Monday and carefully packed up my father's artwork, furniture, kitchenware, and clothing. Christy measured and drew a perfect floor plan. Tuesday, the movers arrived and Next Step oversaw the whole move.

Imagine his delight to find his furniture arranged, his artwork carefully placed, and his clothing folded and tucked away. It was magic! When the final bill arrived, it was $1000 under Christy's estimate. I highly recommend this company.

Brief overview:…read more Melinda is wonderful. She is thoughtful in her approach with great ideas about organization and a strong work ethic. My life has changed dramatically for the better after my time with her. Organization is well worth it and getting support makes it easier and quicker. We organized my entire apartment from Kitchen to my under the bed storage! My experience has continued past my time with Melinda and I've been able to use her expertise to start organizing my garage. If you're on the fence about getting an organizer to help you, get off the fence. I feel worlds better about my space and the organization is sustainable and will increase my home experience for years to come A bit longer of a review for those of you who want to understand the full experience I had with Melinda. Some facts, I live in less than 550 sq/ft with multiple cats. I'm not inclined to hoarding but definitely keep stuff. I'm handy and more than capable of doing organization. I am not capable of doing organization well, which became super apparent after my experience with Melinda. The process: - It starts with a phone call but I didn't know how long to book Melinda to complete the work. After a discussion and video call, she recommended 20 hours, which I scheduled. I'd be lying if I didn't look around after booking and think, "is 20 hours too much?? How could it take that long." But Melinda's pricing can account for this problem. More importantly, we didn't need to because it took just shy of that much time! She nailed it. - The first day we got everything out and purged...and purged...and sorted...and assessed. It was awesome. Melinda isn't pushy and presents the stuff you have in a neutral manner asking questions about it's use and need (or even emotional attachment). - Throughout the day, she sends stuff to purchase for organization. It's all optional and up to you. None of it was overly expensive though your space will likely determine the need for purchases. I went a bit all out and it cost me about $400 in shelves/cubbies and other items. Most were individually fairly priced and some I upgraded. I chose to spend another $200 on items after we were done. Ever single penny was worth it and there are ways to do it cheaper or more extravagant. - Day 2 was more purging while the organization starts. Her systems were discussed with me before anything started and Melinda geared the process towards what works For me! She quickly adapted to organizing different areas of the home - The final day finished up the organization followed by a discussion of what was left to do. At this point, I made the decision to stop at the agreed upon 20 hours but could have scheduled her for another 3 hours but I didn't have the things I needed to be productive. One last plug: Before booking Melinda, I found myself thinking that organizing my home and garage was something I could do myself. It seemed easy, something I would get to, something on the list for a rainy day. That attitude lasted for 3 years and the organization wasn't done. In 3 days, my world changed and I instantly wondered how different my life would have been in the previous years had I hired Melinda back when I moved in. The suggestion: If you're thinking about organization (you are because you've read this far) stop thinking about it and just do it. And if you do it, you won't be unsatisfied by Melinda.

Melinda is willing to dig in and work with you to make something overwhelming feel lighter. I highly recommend her.

They have a studio space upstairs and a display room + shop downstairs. They have a smaller selection, but great to see options that are from a local small business vs. a big box store. Price ranges are anywhere from $500+ for small furniture pieces and up. Home decor and accessories like candles, frames and art are reasonable, boutique pricing as expected. Love that they have a parking lot as well. I'll definitely keep them in mind for when I'm ready to do some true interior designing.

It's a beautifully-decorated shop, and the customer service lady (I didn't get her name) was super friendly and very welcoming to my husband and I. We didn't need any interior design services at this time, but we had an uplifting browse, and we bought a couple of nice-smelling candles, along with a wick-trimmer. Stopping in to this lovely little shop made our day better. I see here on the yelp page for this business that this business was established in 2014, however, when I asked the customer service lady when they'd opened, she told me that they'd opened in February of this year! I thought that was gutsy because I hadn't known this business existed before today, so I got the mistaken impression that the business was brand new. Perhaps she meant that this particular location opened in February 2021. In any case, I wish them all the luck, and I thank them for bringing a cheerful and uplifting experience to my day today! I would definitely go back if I was in the area.
