Embrace Your Space Organizing & Design

Very helpful and nice ideas. Pleasant and organized.

My single car garage was an embarrassing mess of boxes, paint cans, old chairs, canvasses, power tools, you name it, clogging up shelves and all walkable space. Finding what I needed involved crawling over precarious piles and then blindly reaching into dusty chaos. Hiring Jill was like bringing in a harmony angel. She carefully worked with me to empty out my garage, parse through unneeded and outdated items and then rearrange material in categories on shelves and in see-​through containers. After just two sessions with Jill, my garage is transformed. I can now not only walk around with ease, I can find what I need in a flash… and I can even park my Subaru inside — a true miracle indeed. Jill is a joy to work with, always moving toward her vision of blissful, elegant feng shui.

Jill came out and gave me a free estimate and let me know what she could or couldn’t do. She was so friendly and professional. It was like she was already a trusted friend and just fit right in with our family and made everyone feel so at ease. She let me know from stop to finish what she would be doing, what we needed to complete the job and approximately how long it would take. She was very respectful before throwing anything out. She took things we weren’t keeping away for us. I really enjoyed my time with her. She made it fun. I was so relieved when she finished. My garage looks so nice and now I have an oasis to do my crafts in. I have had poor health, and she made sure I was comfortable and then included me every step of the way in the decision making. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. She was worth every penny I was charged. Thank you Jill!

MY CHI REALLY NEEDED AN OVERHAUL!
My house needed serious help: with twin boys, 2 jobs, a small house and moving my business office to my home: it was utter chaos. Just walking in the door made my blood pressure rise. I wanted my home to be an oasis for me and my boys.
It took me several months to get up the courage to invite Jill, a professional organizer recommended to me by a friend, into this mayhem. Jill is so positive and great at turning lemons into lemonade. I never once felt embarrassed by my clutter.
She was able to transform my twin sons’ room into a soothing and comforting space by reconfiguring an under-​utilized closet and removing furniture that wasn’t being used any longer. In addition, she reconfigured my living room in the same visit by moving my existing pieces around to open up the space for my family and friends. My living room actually looks bigger. This all happened in just 4 hours, well worth the time and money. And she works on weekends!
Being on a tight budget (isn’t everyone?), I was anxious that an organizer would want me to get rid of a lot of my hand me down pieces that I currently have, but Jill was great at re-​using pieces in different parts of the house: my out of pocket expense was minimal, and it made all the difference.
Our latest project, has been turning my spare «dump» room into my office and craft room. This allowed me to get it all off of my dining room table, so my family could eat our meals together again without being glued to the TV.
Why did I hesitate so long? I kept thinking «I just need to do this myself.» I kept buying organizational books that I never read. Much like a personal coach, I have found it essential to have Jill here with me setting up a system, using her Feng Shui skills and decorating-​know-​how to create a space that I love and desire to maintain. For the price of a manicure/​pedicure with much more lasting results.

Jill is a godsend! She is patient, efficient, kind, and I never felt embarrassed about my clutter. Reasonably priced, and has many resources for reselling valuable items.
I will absolutely be calling Jill again in the future.

I’ve worked with Jill Viglione for several years. She’s truly versatile in the kinds of organizational issues she works with. Over the years she’s helped with taxes, prepared my house for sale, organized all the rooms in my new home, and helped choose furniture and home products that work in my small condo. My house sold in 24 hours and would not have without Jill’s help.
Jill is especially talented working with those who are spatially impaired (like me). Rather than imposing a standard organizational system, Jill identified my strengths and developed a system that works for me. I can now find my clothes, paperwork, kitchen supplies. I’m a knitter and have considerable yarn. Jill figured out a way to sort yarn so it is accessible. Some people may have no trouble with finding things but I used to spend hours looking for a specific item.
I work with Jill regularly and she helps keep me on task. The most important aspect of Jill’s work is that she loves my dog even though she is often beaten up by my girl’s violent tail.

Extraordinary. Professional. Knowledgeable… and friendly.
As a small business owner looking for guidance in both home AND office organization, design and flow, I can’t tell you how fortunate I am to have found Jill Viglione, founder and owner of Embrace Your Space Organizing and Design.
As nervous as I was about having someone walk in and provide custom consulting about my work space and home (oh dear, would she reprimand me for sloppy files? Notice dust bunnies?) I was immediately put at ease. Jill is not only highly-​trained and very good at what she does, she is warm, easy-​going, and has zero judgment about what you have — and haven’t — done in organizing your home, office or whatever space. She makes you instantly comfortable, and works swiftly to assess what YOU need, then designs creative, cost and time-​effective solutions that will work so well with your life. She’s also a treasure trove of nifty ideas, time-​saving tricks, and great resources to get anything you may need.
It is clear Embrace Your Space’s owner loves her work, and is so good at it. I am thrilled I had the chance to work with her, and am looking forward to future projects.
PS, in case you were wondering, I asked her to help design a combination office, guest area AND art studio. Which she did, brilliantly. She left me with a terrific move-​forward plan, zero pressure for any additional consulting work, and a great go-​to list of resources so I can purchase anything I needed and not break open my piggybank.
