Organization For Mind, Body, & Decor

An organized home is more than just aesthetically pleasing — it’s beneficial for your well-being. Wendy Rossier, owner of NEAT Method Jersey Shore, shares her expertise on how to achieve an organized, stylish home this holiday season — from chaos to calm.

The secret is out, having an organized home is good for you! In fact, according to the National Institute for Health in a study conducted by Sandra J. E. Langeslag for the University of Missouri, organization elicits pleasant feelings and decreases anxiety. These findings have been corroborated in several studies. However, if, like working out — do it cause it’s good for you — still isn’t quite enough to motivate you to whip your house into shape, there’s an emerging niche in home organization that, while not new, is surging in popularity. It involves using organization as part of your home’s décor to bring beauty to functionality. Leading this movement is NEAT Method. So, sure, organizing your home will still be good for you, but it will also look amazing. 

“When hiring our NEAT Method team, we are committed to making sure the aesthetics of spaces are organized in a beautiful way. Also, we design and implement customized solutions that are not only effective but sustainable,” says Wendy Rossier, Owner of NEAT Method Jersey Shore. 

As part designer and part organizer, NEAT Method has allowed Wendy to combine two of her passions: décor and organization. “After dedicating 25 years to financial work at Pfizer, I have spent the past decade pursuing my passion for curated luxury living spaces, which ultimately brought me to NEAT Method,” Wendy says. She currently has several high-profile clients who keep her team very busy. However, Wendy graciously made some time for New Jersey Lifestyle Magazine. As we head into the holidays, she has some tips for getting your home to look and function at its best before the holiday madness takes over, or as NEAT Method puts it — from chaos to calm. 

Wendy’s Holiday Organization Tips: 

Tip #1: Edit Before You Deck the Halls

Before bringing out any decorations, take a moment to edit your space. Go through each room and remove items you no longer use or need. Consider donating or selling items that are in good condition. This not only creates physical space but also helps clear your mind, making room for holiday decor.

Tip #2: Prepare and Organize the Guest Room 

If you're expecting guests, take the time to organize the guest room. Clear out any unnecessary items, freshen up bedding, and ensure there's adequate space for luggage. Consider adding a small bin with toiletries, snacks, phone chargers, and a welcoming note to make your guests feel at home. 

Tip #3: Designate a 'Holiday Zone' 

Set up a specific area in your home for holiday preparations. This could be in a spare bedroom, a closet, or a section of your kitchen. Use organizing solutions to store wrapping supplies, holiday cards, and gifts. This way, everything you need is easily accessible, reducing clutter in other areas of your home. 

Tip #4: Simplify Your Décor 

While it's tempting to go all out with decorations, consider simplifying your approach. Choose a few key pieces that resonate with you and create a cohesive look. This not only saves time but also makes it easier to set up and take down decorations after the holidays. 

Tip #5: Stock Up on Essentials 

Make a list of essential items you'll need during the holidays, such as extra napkins, candles, and non-perishable foods. Stock up ahead of time to avoid last-minute trips to the store, which can add to your stress.
