Closet Organization With Gordmans

I first heard about Marie Kondo, a Japanese organizing consultant, a few years ago when reading one of my favorite blogger’s book reviews. I was curious… but I didn’t give in to decluttering. When her show, Tidying Up, came out on Netflix, I did a poll on Instagram to see if I should watch… you guys said yes!

I think Marie is a little crazy, but her methods were needed in one place in my house: my closet organization. When Gordmans reached out to me to collaborate on a post about home organization, I knew exactly what I needed to do!

When I moved into my home, the master bedroom closet had a plastic shelving system. I removed that and my dad built me custom shelves/racks, specifically for what I had. I didn’t keep the shelves very organized, though…

Before:

Marie taught me that nostalgia is not your friend. I can honestly say I don’t own anything more than two years old (aside from my beloved Tri Delt attire – haha). A lot of this has to do with my past and my minimization mindset (more on that here), but it felt good to go through everything and not procrastinate cleaning.

When I headed to the Gordmans in Fremont, I found everything I needed to tidy up my closet. It needed some breathing room, so I grabbed baskets, bins, and my favorite – velvet hangers. I snagged a letter board because my closet needed a joyful message 😉

After:

This refresh makes me want to keep things uncluttered from now on! There is a definite difference for a minimal spend. Gordmans is an off-price retailer. Off-price retailers buy excess inventory from department and specialty stores, then sell it at greatly reduced prices. For shoppers, that means exceptional deals on designer and name brand fashion and home décor. I can’t believe I was able to transform my closet with a few key items and the art of decluttering.

Have you done the KonMari Method on any rooms in your house? I’d love to hear!

This print I partnered with @mapiful to create not only features my favorite city, but reminds me of how things have changed... just 5 years ago I was working my very first post-grad job in #Chicago and now we’re living in a pandemic, #WFH world. Where were you 5 years ago? Crazy times. Right now you can get 20% off when you buy a print + frame at #mapiful! Such a fun holiday gift! Look back a few posts for another print inspiration! #mapifulfamily #framedmap #map #chicagomap #partnership

I’ve had so much fun partnering to design my #Chicago and #Lincoln prints. I love this little corner of my office. I’m thankful it’s inviting, especially after a long holiday weekend!

  • Keeping date nights going during this pandemic has been interesting, especially when your bf is a nurse! Last night we enjoyed dinner at Leadbelly (seriously, SO COVID-friendly & the same owners as my fave place Toast in #LNK) and the Season of Lights in Turner Park at @midtowncrossing! Thank you so much for having us, Midtown! It was a much needed little getaway into Omaha, followed by driving around and seeing more lights. We loved: -132nd & Larimore, which has a few houses set up to radio stations -132nd & Hamilton - Linden Estates Area - which blew me away
  • Two months ago, I tested positive for COVID-19 and during that quarantine period I did a whooooleeee lot of binge-watching. Whether you’re in my situation or you’re just quarantining before you see family for the holidays, I put together an important guide on the blog: Everything I watched in quarantine, ranked from worst-best. #quarantinewatchlist #whattowatch #nebraskablogger
  • 200!! Happy to kick off 2021 with a big @onepeloton milestone! I’ve been loving the #bikethatgoesnowhere for almost 2 years and finally hit this goal. Big thanks to @robinnyc for the back-to-back rides today! I’ve never stuck with a fitness program this long and could go on and on about Peloton. If you’re on the fence, GO FOR IT! I’m sharing my favorite rides and recommendations after completing 200 on the blog today.
