Moving Boxes Everywhere, Now What....

The fastest way to bring back normalcy after a move is in re-creating our nest and yet it takes us months sometimes to finish unpacking moving boxes and hanging artwork on the walls.

Below are a few things to consider:

  • Clutter: Try to put away your belongings as you unpack moving boxes instead of creating messy piles.
  • If possible, gather all your accessories in a room until you are ready to display them.
  • Create a finished corner as soon as possible: a table with a vase of fresh flowers, a made up bed. This will give you a sense of accomplishment and will soothe your eyes.
  • Give a new life to your furniture, accessories and artwork. Move them around! A lamp that was in the living room in your previous home might look great in your new bedroom.
  • Still overwhelmed with moving boxes after a few months? you might consider contacting the local chapter of NAPO (the National Association of Professional Organizers) to get you totally unpacked.
Do you have a specific question or need help moving in?
