“Annie has done wonders in organising our home. Not only our home feels more tidy and spacious, it has also had really positive impact on us. Annie created a reading corner for my toddler, so instead of being overwhelmed by clutter and toys, he now readily reaches for his books because he can see them all clearly. No longer do I buy double of things because I couldn’t find the old one, because Annie has helped us establish storage systems that means things are easy to find and keep track of. Before Annie has come in to declutter for us, I have often wondered if we need a bigger house and more space, but now things are more organised I think our house is plenty big enough and I don’t feel overwhelmed anymore and it is much easier to keep on top of things.
Annie was also amazing to work with. I had a newborn at the time we were declutterring, and she was really flexible and did all the hard work whilst I was looking after my newborn. She is extremely professional and hardworking. She also never pressured me to get rid of anything, and work patiently with me to work out storage for things I want to keep. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants a declutter, or is feeling overwhelmed by stuff. Worth every penny.”
“Where do I even begin? From start to finish Annie really did 'declutter with delight!' We first had a consultation where Annie asked what my vision for the spaces were (living room & kitchen). She then went away and did lots of research on storage solutions- giving ideas for differing price ranges, and from there wrote a detailed document about our plan! When Annie arrived it was a delight! She quickly got to work on taking everything out so I could actually see what I had (lots of lovely things and memories I'd forgotten about!) And grouped them into sections which was helpful so I could see how much I had of different things (who knew I had so many wooden chopsticks!) I was then able to to through everything and decide what to keep, sell and donate. I didnt feel pressured to get rid of anything, Annie gave me some helpful tips and posed questions about items to help me decide! It felt so therapeutic to sort through everything- we've lived in our small flat for 8 years, accumulated a lot of things from my inlaws when they moved abroad and have a 4 month old baby so things have really piled up and needed a good sort out! Annie gave me the time (and manpower!) to actually do it! I am SO happy with the end result! With the fab new storage solutions, Annie not only made everything LOOK great but it is now also actually practical and usable! I know what I've got and where everything is (thank you label machine!) My husband now has no excuse not to put things in the right place! I would highly recommend Annie to help organise your home, she really listened to my brief and helped me decide how I wanted the space to look - she's so friendly and open it was easy chatting with her about the plan! Thank you Annie for decluttering my house with delight- you really do live up to your name! 💛 "
“I would really recommend 'Declutter with Delight': Annie was professional, very easy to talk to and really worked with me, listening to my requests, making good suggestions when I wasn't sure whether to keep certain items. Annie struck a great balance: I never felt forced into getting rid of anything, yet she encouraged me to get rid of things that no longer served me. Annie had some great ideas and storage solutions that I didn't even know existed but make such a big difference to the aesthetics and functionality of certain spaces.
My wardrobe is now so much more functional, efficient, and much nicer to look at. Everything has its place and is easy to find, and I definitely wear more variety now: I open it and don't just reach for the same few outfits, but because everything is displayed and organised nicely, and I know it all fits/ I like it, I weirdly feel like I have more choices, even though I actually got rid of several bin bags of stuff! It feels good too that at Annie's suggestion, we donated anything I no longer wanted to charity so that hopefully they will get reused and not wasted.
Annie was very patient and understanding: I thought the more sentimental items might be hard to go through, but she listened to their stories and never judged when I decided to keep items that perhaps others wouldn't. She understands that items can come with memories and meanings behind them. There were a few things I decided to get rid of that I wondered if I'd miss but I haven't regretted anything at all. I will definitely be booking future sessions with Annie to look at other areas of my home."
"Annie converted our unused conservatory into a wonderful playroom for our boys. This was an unused space in our house where we stored everything that didn’t have a home. Annie was patient and kind and I never felt that I had to throw anything away that I didn’t want to part with. Annie has brought calm and order to that space. My children now spend hours playing with different toys that might never have been unpacked.
Annie is wonderful at what she does and I would recommend her to anyone. You will not regret booking her to declutter and order your home. Annie will take away the stress of organising and sorting and the whole process was actually fun!"
“We can't thank Annie enough for all her help in clearing and organising the long neglected spare room of our house that we were feeling completely overwhelmed by. In just a couple of days, Annie helped us go through and clear the space, organising everything for us and creating new systems to help us stay on top of things. Working with Annie was an amazing experience, she approached the job with so much understanding, compassion, and an enormous amount of hard work! We now have an organised space that we are turning into a new bedroom for our son, and amazingly helpful storage systems in our office that are working wonders for our family. We honestly can't recommend working with Annie enough - thank you!!!”
“I asked Annie to come and help me with my bedroom, particularly my wardrobe after it had become a bit of a depression pit (clothes mountain was threatening to avalanche onto my bed). She was kind, calm and non-judgemental with my needs and her communication was clear and easy to understand. She worked closely with me beforehand as I'm on a tight budget so we came up with some cheaper storage solutions and temporary fixes until I could implement her solutions at a later date. With her help we managed to reduce my overflowing clothes pile to a point where it all fits into my wardrobe (with space to spare!) and a few drawers in my new kallax unit (I'd just like to add that she's an expert at making IKEA furniture too!). I now actually have floor space in my room, can see all my items of clothing and have rediscovered t-shirts and other items that I thought I had lost! Overall, I managed to donate 8 black bin liners of clothing that I don't wear anymore, and bin a further 6 black bags of rubbish. Thank you so much Annie, I'll be forever grateful for your help and kindness.”
“We had Annie from Declutter With Delight in our home to help us finally sort our bedroom out after trying and failing to do it ourselves so many times.
Having someone in your personal space is quite a daunting thought. From the moment Annie arrived, all anxieties were gone as she was so friendly and professional. At no point did I feel forced to part with anything I didn’t want to get rid of, and found as time went on, there were more items that I could live without. Our bedroom was always sort of a ‘dumping ground’, and I was jealous of the type of people who had a clear bedroom and had everything organised.
My partner and I had tried, but we found we would get rid of things and then not know where to put the items we’d kept. We would start and end up making more mess!
Thanks to Annie, everything now has a home, and not any old home – a home where it makes sense! Different clothing items are together, and we have sorted out items to pack away for other seasons or celebrations. I can now go into my wardrobe and get out an outfit, rather than hunting around on my floordrobe – or my exercise bike/clothes hanger!
Annie is the perfect person to help you declutter your home, as she is calm, understanding, professional, and empathetic.
We thoroughly enjoyed having Annie in our home and wouldn’t hesitate to invite her back. We now have a tidy, peaceful and calm bedroom thanks to her. PLEASE COME AND SORT OUT THE REST!”
“I had Annie come and declutter my walk in wardrobe in October. I found the lead up to my session (such as WhatsApp support, advice and storage suggestions) easy - I felt Annie had all bases covered and so I didn’t need to worry about things too much. It was so helpful to be able to sort through things, have a complete mess by the end of all the sorting- step away to deal with baby etc and come back to it all beautifully organised. I would have loved to stay and maybe discuss a couple of the choices more but Annie was more than happy to talk me through her logic when I arrived back and suggest how I might want to change things up! It was absolutely brilliant! You’re AMAZING! I would definitely recommend Declutter with Delight to other people.”
