- Clean out and organize not just the rooms themselves, but organization spaces such as closets, shelves, drawers, and bookshelves.
- Learn how to properly use organization equipment, such as bins, drawer organizers, storage bins, food storage containers, lids, and baskets.
The Private Balanced Home Community
(BONUS – Priceless). Provides a community that you can go to whenever you need a place where you…
- Seek inspiration and ideas from others
- Receive support and motivation from others
- Share your successes and see the successes of others as we all work towards finding balance and clarity in our homes.
- Can ask questions and let me know what you may still need help with so that I can continue to cater the course to your needs
What Do People Have To Say About My Organization Course?
“This course was instrumental in helping me organize my space as well as my time. As a busy mom, I have a better grasp on what my days need to include so that I can enjoy my family rather than spend my time spinning my wheels cleaning up after everyone.”
“The Balanced Home Course helped me to be the “professional organizer” for my family! Simple steps to follow, check lists, printable labels, suggestions and worksheets will keep you on track to successfully maintain your own balanced home.”
“I am pretty sure I have solved more issues with the seven layers and clarity tool than I have in 6 months of therapy!! I think this course is going to help much more than my home. Thanks Amy!!!!”
When I realized I had been overcomplicating the idea of organization, that simplifying was a key component, then things really started to fall into place!”

This is a super centerpiece. I’m eager to see how to build the box but appreciate the suggestion of the planter as an immediate solution.
Thanks Suzanne. Hoping to have the box tutorial on the site here soon!
I can’t wait to learn how to build one of these boxes!!
This Post couldn’t have come at a better time! I’ve been looking high and low at all the craft stores for a container exactly like this. I have a very handy husband with lots of leftover wood so I’m not sure why I didn’t think to build one! Thanks so much!!
Wow! lovely thanksgiving table centerpiece.
Perfectly simple yet elegant — just like you! I agree with Acacia’s comment that a low centerpiece is preferable to a big, elaborate confection around which you can’t see. Lovely!
awww…seriously that comment just made my day! Thank you so much! I agree. Big centerpieces can be pretty but make it hard to see around when trying to chat with your table mates.
Great stuff! love you’re projects!
Thanks so much for the sweet comment! I always appreciate it :)
I love it! It is perfect!
Beautiful! I’ve been wanting to make one! I’m looking forward to some EASY directions. I think I will put my boys to work on this one! Thanks for posting! Happy Fall!
What are the dimensions of the box?
Cute centerpiece!
The dimensions of the box are 31.5 inches long x 7 inches wide x 3.5 inches tall. I just posted the wood box tutorial and you can find all of the dimensions and instructions in more detail here: http://www.theidearoom.net/2012/11/build-your-own-wooden-box.html
This would also be cute for a Christmas table centerpiece! It would be a great gift for friends and family. I’m looking forward to your step by step directions! Thanks for posting your cute creation!
Thanks Denise! As you guessed…I do have a Christmas version I am sharing next week :)
Since it’s a three day weekend, I would like to purchase the wood to make the wood box on Saturday. Can you please tell me the dimensions of the wood box. What kind of wood and stain do you recommend?
Thanks,
Denice
