She dug right in and had signs for "Recycle", "Shred", "Charity", "Garage Sale" and a garbage bag. We did one room at a time. She would prop a box on top of another so that I didn't have to bend over so far to go through it. So thoughtful and caring of me and my things. After going through rooms, closets, attic our home now feels calmer, cleaner and more organized. I have let go of a lot of anxiety over having so much stuff. I highly recommend Tidy Butterfly! So worth it!

We initially tried a closet system from a big box store but due to the unique shape and size of our closet it didn't work well for us.

We had been talking about redoing our closet for awhile. We did a quote from the container store(…read moreminimum 7k) and thought the cost of a decent closet was only to be a dream. Until we got a flyer in the mail for closets by design. It said 40% off and free install, we thought for sure the quote would be just high but it was a free quote so why not? They were able to give us exactly what we wanted! I was VERY particular and poor Tom stayed with my vision no matter how off the wall it was or now many small tweeks I made. Before, we said our closet just didn't look like it belonged in our custom home....now it fits perfectly! With Military discount and the flyer it and even my upgraded rods, it came in fully installed just under $2,500. We only had one hiccup the whole way and it was corrected within an hour. I highly recommend Tom Brown and Closets By Design

I have used nearly every service Staging 2 Sell it provides and am equally impressed with all…read more The most recent was staging the home I had lived in for 36 years. It sold to a family that toured it the second day after it was listed and offered $2,500 over listing price! Prior to this, they assisted me in moving to my "forever home" this fall. They helped me decide what items I should move and suggested where to place them for maximum impact. They did some painting and made suggestions on the person that laid flooring and engaged the movers being there during the actual move instructing the movers where to place items. The move was flawless and almost painless! After that they went with us to help select several pieces of furniture and were here two months later when it was delivered. I was very impressed with them when customers approached them at the furniture store and asked them questions. Without hesitation they said what they believed. During the last five years and before these experiences, I had them for three consultations in addition to having them stage three "flippers". With the flippers, they looked at them in their original conditions and made suggestions on what to do to enhance their appearance, flow, and value. They always make economical suggestions and I firmly believe they have saved me more money than what their services have cost. They listen and encourage my input. I can not praise them adequately enough. I look forward to more experiences with them! Norma Walker
