Before & After - Professional Organisers

Hey there!

Lately I get a lot of questions on whether I still pursue my organising work since I do not post consistently on social media and the answer is "YES, absolutely"!

I'm still helping clients and providing workshops on demand since the beginning of 2021. I am extremely lucky to have the best clients and projects and I do not plan to stop working.

Organising has been and will always be part of who I am and I am passionate to share the benefits resulting from it with you! ☑️📦💥

Before & After - Professional Organisers updated their phone number.

Our first group workshop on organising is happening on 05.02.2022 (Saturday) at 3pm!

I am so excited to share with you some useful and practical tips on how you can start your organising journey and actually remain organised.

I'll do that in a cosy informal setting at home with some yummy treats and drinks 🥂🧁.

Can't wait to see you there 🤍🤍

New year, new us, right? 😀

I am very excited to share with you that I am working on a series of organising workshops for corporate clients.

My main goal for 2022 is to share the amazing benefits decluttering and organising can have on the various aspects of our lives. One of these important aspects is of course our work and workplace environment.

As always, stay tuned and I'll keep you posted 🤍🤍

Dear friends,

The time has come to wish you nice holidays as I'm planning on taking the week off for some much needed quality time with family and friends.

May you spend the festive period as you planned it and enjoy some rest, if possible.

I can't wait to be back to my projects with you next year as I have amazing new things planned.

🎉🥂🎁💝🎄🎅⛄

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT ❗️📣📣📣

Our eGift Card is now available on www.beforeafter.lu

If you are struggling to come up with an original (and sustainable) Christmas gift idea this year we got you covered! Now you have the chance to offer the gift of organising to a loved one. 🎁🎉

My previous work with clients has shown that organising and decluttering your physical space can give you a powerful sense of relief and boost your confidence to tackle other areas of your life.

Today I want to talk to you about one of the services I offer: STAGING!

Staging becomes important when you'd like to present your home in the best possible way (for instance when you are planning to sell it or rent it out).

For me staging can be done in different ways but my focus is on decluttering, organising, styling and in general making the best out of the existing space so others can appreciate it too! As with my other projects, I always aim to use budget-friendly and sustainable solutions! 🤍🤍

Last but not least, I work with a professional photographer who can capture the transformation and ensure you have high quality pictures which can be used for your real estate project.

Hi there! I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to some of you who started following recently. For me it is also important to connect with the ones who have been following my organising journey for a while - thank you for your never ending support 🙏

In the spirit of friendship and getting to know you even better, why don't you introduce yourself in the comments and tell me how what you do 🤍🤍

I'd like to start the weekend with a lot of positivity and invite you to take a look at this amazing closet transformation (swipe for Before & After) 🤍🤍!

It is time for our first GIVEAWAY!

Today is a really special day for Before & After as we have launched exactly 6 months ago!

So much has happened in half a year. We have had so many transformation projects, met amazing people and received so much support from this community.

For this special occasion, we would like to offer a free 1hour consultation (either virtual or in person) where we can talk about a specific project you have in mind or just provide general tips on how to tackle your own organising journey.

Participation is easy:
1. Like this post
2. Tag a buddy or two (or more 😜) who like organising
*Participation is not limited to Luxembourg

The winner will be announced on Sunday evening 🤍🤍

People often tell me - "I do not know where to begin, how can I become more organised?"

While there isn't one magic fix, after working with clients for a while now and perfecting my method, I have documented my 10 tips which always help!

Remember, nothing is impossible and asking for help with organising is the first steps towards a complete transformation of your physical and inner space 🤍🤍

I wish you a great weekend ahead!

To me re-organising a space is the first step towards internal change and development. A seemingly simple action yet so powerful!

However, a mindset shift can only happen if you are getting organised with a clear goal in mind 🤍🤍

I believe that no closet is impossible to organise! We can always find a solution even if your closet seems too small or you think the dimensions are non-standard.

Indeed, the pictured closet was unusually deep and also had to accommodate both of my clients (👫) but this just made the organising session even more fun!

Some extra preparation was needed to find the best organising products and materials (we decided to use temporary tags for the boxes before dedicating to a final style) 🤍🤍

I hope you all find your this week! 🤍🤍

The transformation of this children's room was among some of the most challenging projects we have had so far but also really close to my heart 🤍🤍

This is so not only because of the beautiful result after our work but also because of the impact it made for the whole family 🤍🤍

I truly love what I do, I hope you enjoy swiping to see the difference 🙌➡️

Good organisation is something which can immediately improve your quality of life. Luckily, everyone can become organised given the right tools,system and motivation! 🤍🤍

Working with a professional organiser is about creating a system which works for you and your lifestyle! It is also about receiving a helping hand when you really need it. Last but not least, it is about honesty and lack of judgment. 🤍🤍

I wish you a happy and organised week ahead! 🤍🤍

Today I was preparing some custom orders 📦📦📦🚚🚚🚚

🤍🤍The tray is handcrafted by a Bulgarian artist from upcycled newspaper. Her method is to roll newspaper cuts into tubes, cover them with a layer of paint/lacquer and weave them into beautiful creations.

🤍🤍The white blanket is handmade by my mother with a lot of love and care.

As you know, selling these decorative items is not my main activity (organising is) but I love to be able to support talented women who create beautiful items in a sustainable way so I'll keep offering the option to place custom orders!

Another useful organising tip from us in collaboration with Marco Kasel - RE/MAX !

Professional Organising - Quick Tip #3 In this video, Siyana shares some tips about finding homes for the objects in your home.

Keeping it short and sweet this week for you guys! 🤍🤍 It is all about simplicity and focus on the important things in life!

When I organise with clients I always aim to bring the best out of their spaces and create visually pleasing focal points.

The lovely vintage drawer on the picture was almost completely covered with clutter and an old unused TV.

We removed the TV, clutter and completely changed the function of the space. Now this is a practical beauty station, which even features a nice picture, which the family had for a while and never had the chance to hang 🤍🤍

There's a rule I apply to all my work no matter how big or small the project is. I make sure things have a designated place. As simple as it sounds, it just makes organising so much easier!

People often ask - what if I forget where the "home" of item X is? An easy trick would be to keep similar items together. If this does not work - labelling is your friend 🤍🤍

Have a lovely week ahead 🤍🤍

Library transformation 🤍🤍 (swipe for "before" pictures)

The lovely book-loving couple we helped during one of our projects was really struggling to maintain an orderly library. Books were scattered around the house and there was no distinction between "his" and "hers".

After discussing at length their reading habits and preferences, we managed to create a simple yet efficient system that works for both in such a limited space!

When I am about to buy something I always take a moment for reality check - do I really need this item? Is there a similar item which I already have at home? The answer to the second question is often "yes"...

I also try to visualize the potential purchase in my home and as part of my routine. Would I really use it? If I'm not sure how to make it work with the rest of my possessions, I simply move on...

Last but not least, am I really loving it? Is it going to make me extremely happy to have it? If the honest answer here is "yes", I'd say - treat yourself!

So satisfied with this Before & After 🤍🤍

I worked together with my lovely client through 2 large wardrobes and large amounts of accumulated clothing. The aim was to make her closet room practical and enjoyable and even to add a little bit of extra glam (check out the Before & After upcycled baskets we used)!

This transformation took us a whole day but it was so worth it!

You do not know how to start organising your home?

Short interview with Siyana from and Marco Kasel - RE/MAX to share practical advice and tips!

Stay tuned for the next episodes! 😉

Professional Organising - Quick Tip #1 In this video, Siyana Petrova gives a couple of quick tips to help you get started with your organising project.

We wish you a great start of this special week 🇱🇺 🤍🤍!

One way that is sure to boost your mood and improve your daily routine is organising (no negative side effects)!

Yesterday I met with the lovely Carmen for a closet organising session. I knew this would be quite the challenge as I know Carmen is really interested in home organisation and has an eye for detail!

Together we 1) reviewed all her cosmetics, clothes, shoes, purses and accessories 2) decided on what to be kept/sold/donated/recycled 3) found a practical and easy to maintain organising system which matches her habits and lifestyle and 4) last but not least, we gave the room a little extra glamour 🤍🤍

This "little" afternoon project took about 4 hours to conclude and left everyone feeling very satisfied. We cannot wait to tackle the next rooms 😜

Before & After

Children's room - part 1 (swipe for the "before" pictures)

For this project we started by creating a library for our little clients as they turned out to be avid readers 🤍🤍 We wanted to make the library the centerpiece of the room and it worked beautifully

Caught in the middle of the organising fun! I know I look very serious 🙈 but I absolutely enjoy the process and always get so excited when the clients can't recognise their transformed spaces 😃🤍

Starting small is better than not starting at all! Especially when it comes to organising and parting with items you don't need 🤍🤍 One small step will lead you to another and before you know it, a new healthy habit would be part of your routine 🤍🤍

Besides being beautiful, eco-friendly and upcycled, our storage products are also extremely practical for your organising purposes and come in different sizes, shapes and colours.

If you don't find whatever you are looking for, don't worry - you can place an order and we will make it for you.

This one and many more will be available as of week at the Female Founders Pop-Up (121 rue d'Alzette)! We can't get wait to see you there 🤍🤍

Behind the scenes shot during our interview with Marco Kasel - RE/MAX We were exchanging some interesting thoughts on organising and moving 🤍🤍Stay tuned💡

Behind the scenes of a video shooting for an invterview I'll be posting soon about an exciting new service here in Luxembourg. Stay tuned!

We hope you start the new week as excited as we are for our upcoming projects 🤍🤍

Our buzzword for this week is ! We want to remind you that short and uncomplicated tidying & decluttering rituals performed frequently can positively impact your home and daily habits 🤍🤍

Before being able to dedicate yourself to the decluttering and/or organising process, you need to ensure you can have a dedicated timeslot during which you can focus on the task at hand.

An idea could be to ask a family member or a friend to stay with your kid(s) or walk your pet while you tackle your space. This can save you a lot of time and stress and the outcome is driving worth it.

As always, the secret to having this special timeslot is planning well in advance and following through with the plan 🤍🤍

up

Although today it is a Monday, it is also a public holiday. Be kind to yourself, reflect on what really matters and have a lovely start of the week 🤍🤍

These gorgeous look even better on the Before & After mint tray.

The tray has been handcrafted with love using upcycled newspaper 🤍🤍 That's right - newspaper!

Soon we will be able to share more about our new line of upcycled products, which promote our pilosophy of using renewable materials and encouraging the circular economy.

We strongly believe it is never too late to start and completely change your home and as a consequence - your life! 🤍🤍 Let us help you with that 🤍🤍

In line with our mission of sustainability, we believe that many household items you already own can be upcycled/repurposed to serve as smart storage solutions, which can save a lot of space and money. 🤍🤍

However, when some storage items need to be purchased, we are very happy when we get asked by our clients to establish a plastic-free organising system. 🤍🤍

Glass, metal, wooden and rattan containers/items/units are all a great way to do that. 🤍🤍

So many options are available both online and in the stores in your area – we are happy to give you our opinion and suggestions.🤍🤍
