What better time to get organized than Spring?!?  So lets step back away from the clutter and refocus on what needs to stay and what needs to go!  If your budget allows, you may want to hire a professional organizer to revamp your closest, office space or any area that needs a new vision!  For those who don’t feel they need to spend money to do that, we’ve combined a few tips that just might make your life a little more organized!

1.)  Choose One Room And Start There! 

Take one drawer, one cabinet, or one pile of papers per day. You’ll  have a sense of accomplishment with little effort and still be making progress!

2.)  Sort Things By Functionality!

Put tea cups near the tea pot, the mirror near the jewelry and mail on your desk. Don’t just straighten papers that are lying around. Put them where they belong: keep it or trash it!

3.) Organizing Means Eliminating!

If you don’t like the way you look in certain clothes, out they should go! If  you can’t decide, put them aside for six month and then choose whether to keep them, toss them, or donate them to charity…remember: quality vs. quantity!

4.) Take Back Control!

We can get overwhelmed when things pile up, so create a time slot every day to spend a few minutes organizing. Your papers, your thoughts, your mail all need to be dealt with on a daily basis. This tip will help you gain momentum in other areas of your life too!

Try these helpful tips and you’ll soon be on your way to living clutter free!

Post Holiday Shopping TIP ( 4 of 5 )

Post holiday tea time = YOU time!

Post holiday tea time = YOU time!

Congratulations, you did it!  You made it through the “holidaze”…the long lines, piles of wrapping paper, oodles of bows and enough tinsel to go to the moon and back…whew! So, we couldn’t let any more time go before we addressed the POST effects of the holidays and our 4th tip in our holiday shopping series!

With January marking one of the slowest months for retail sales, this can be a huge plus for you! Now if you’re already all shopped out, don’t dispair…it’s a fantastic opportunity to think about upcoming birthdays or events you’ll need a little gift for, and many of these amazing deals can be found online in the comfort of your own home.  Last minute purchases add up and often end up costing us more than if we had planned ahead, trust us, we’ve SO been there!  There are also better times to purchase certain items: winter wear is priced best towards the end of January, as are electronics, new automobiles and furniture! As for us, we started early with our Holiday sale this year and will go far and long to bring you high-end jewelry collections at savings of up to 85% off retail through February!

 In addition, we will include a jewelry bag with each purchase to keep your items dust free and organized!

Stay posted for our 5th Holiday Shopping TIP coming next week!

{Compartmentalized}

The humble tea-cup, either in porcelain, ceramic or glass, in most cases is not a multipurpose item.  Most people think of it simply as a holder of  hot beverages that we drink from.  Since we’re all about multipurpose pieces, mixing and matching, we wanted to show you a few ideas that we’ve come across that might be fun to try!  We love the antique china tea cups to organize and compartmentalize little accessory items such as rings, small earrings and even for little, easily misplaced items such as safety pins and extra earring backings…we’d love to hear if you give it a try!

In any drawer, antique china tea cups works as a charming and whimiscal storage area along your bed, in your dresser or closet…

Small cups and dishes placed on your bedside table keep everything at arms reach!

Little tea cups hold a multitude of things…you can find these and other unique holders at antique shops and estate sales!

All Hallow’s Eve!

Autumn D.I.Y. Ideas!

Day by day, it’s starting to feel a little more like Fall!  The leaves are ever so slowly starting to change, the drug stores are carrying bags of sugared sweet treats for Hallows’ Eve, and pumpkin recipes are popping up everywhere! So in the spirit of Autumn, we wanted to bring you a few D.I.Y. ideas for the home!  They’re easy to do, and we think you’ll be pleased with the results…are you up for the challenge?

Let us know how they turn out!

XO ~ Tresors De Luxe! www.tresorsdeluxe.com

Dip miniature apples into melted, buttery caramel and carefully insert a twig into the stem for an adorable mini treat!

Fill candle holders with assorted nut varieties…acorns, walnuts and almonds for a unique candle light display!

Filled quinoa mini pumpkins are festive and add a special touch to your holiday table!

Dried twigs, leaves and bunches of orange, yellow and brown flowers add a special touch to your fireplace mantle!

Carve the inside out of the apple of your choice and fill with hot apple cider ~ a cinnamon stick adds a nice touch when entertaining!

Stencil carved pumpkins! Print out designs that tickle your fancy, carve out designs with the proper tools and you’ll be surprised how charming they look when lit!

{ WINDOWS into your SOUL }

As the saying goes “The eyes are the windows of the soul.” We  have to agree, afterall who’s going to disagree with Ralph Waldo Emerson, as he so thoughtfully puts it, “The eyes indicate the antiquity of the soul.” We wanted to dedicate this post in his memory and to bring a few “soulful” images to life…

Have a treasure filled Saturday!
