"We have worked with Emily for the last 5 years on several projects and she has been instrumental in getting us through some really difficult moments. Throughout the years she has helped us organize several rooms in our house and she organizes our garage annually to make sure we keep it clean and organized.  She also helped us completely move out/move-in my mother and my mother-in-law from their big homes into their retirement homes.  I can’t imagine what we would have done without Emily during those big moves.  I highly recommend Emily.  She’s thoughtful, very easy to work with, and professional"

Move management and Organization: garage

"My husband found Emily when we were looking for a house.  We had walked into a house, and both of us immediately fell in love with it.  The house had good bones, but more than anything we loved the way it was staged.  While extremely nice, the house had a warmth and a feeling of comfort that resonated us.  We ended up buying another house, but I wanted to find out who the interior designer was for the house we had seen previously.  He found that Emily Fawcett had staged the house.  After calling her, he found out that she not only did staging for houses on the market, but also had experience and expertise in professional organizing”

“Emily is exceptional at what she does! She is professional and gave me honest yet gentle advice. She was there there for the entire process which was helpful to me as I had difficulty letting go of things. We spent 2 days going thru a very big closet and my closet was immaculate by the end. My closet is still completely organized 2 years later.  I cannot recommend her more highly.”

Organizing: closet refresh and reorganization

"When I first reached out to Emily, I was anxious and apprehensive about reaching out for help.  After our first consultation, Emily quickly proposed a plan to get me better organized.  I began to see that her skill set of helping others like me were valuable.  Her homework assignments have helped me develop a routine for clearing out mail piles and decluttering effectively.  Now it’s my regular practice.  In addition, she has great skills in adding design to your home. Lastly, she made it affordable for me, and I must say it was worth it!  That was important to me.

"I truly do not know what I would have done this year without Emily.  She is the consummate professional - she keeps meticulous records of her plans and activities, and has very clear communication with her clients all the way through the process.  You never have to guess what is happening - she will always call, text, or email what the plan is, what is happening, and how it went.  Pay structure is transparent and there are no surprises - other than when things are less than expected because she has negotiated a better price on a service.  She is a pleasure to work with - very easy going - and is part designer, part organizer, and part therapist".

Move management

“I have never used a professional organizer in my life, nor did I think that I ever would need this type of service. My mind quickly changed when I found out that the escrow on our new house was closing in 30 days. Wow - this was not what I had been expecting. I have an extremely busy job, and was not able to schedule any time off of work with this short notice. We had lived in our house for 20 years, had children...and the thought of packing and moving in 30 days, while working and being a wife and mother, was absolutely overwhelming. I did not even know where to begin. I will always be grateful to my husband who saw my stress level escalating, and made the first call to Emily.

At our first meeting, Emily came totally prepared, with notebook and a pricing list in hand. We talked over plans A, B and C. Plan A, the most comprehensive, included help to organize us with a purge of our belongings, hire movers, pack, and be in control of the move to the new house on moving day. She also included tips on packing, as well as unpacking our "3 day boxes" on moving day - those things needed to get you through the first 3 days after the move.

On the day of the move, Emily was in charge. We left our old house for work and school on Wednesday morning, and came home to our "new" house Wednesday night. All furniture was moved and placed where we had previously agreed. "3 Day Boxes" were unpacked. Food was in the fridge. Sheets were on the bed. Clothes were hanging in the closet - a new "built in" closet that she helped to design, hired the vendor, and negotiated the best price. Our house was totally set up and livable - and Emily had done it all. I was so thankful for her.”

“As we were preparing to move and list the house for sale, Emily transformed our home with such grace, sensitivity and speed that I found myself regretfully questioning, 'why didn't I do this earlier so that I could enjoy all the benefits of a beautifully organized home!?' The energy of our home was transformed and you felt physically lighter walking through every room even the pantry! She was such a pleasure to work with, always cheerful and positive and thinking one -step ahead of the process. She works so swiftly yet calmly that you feel like she literally bends time. We sold our home on the first day! “

Realtor support and Organizing

“I was blessed to be able to move in with my mother and take care of her for the last seven years of her life.  Along with that blessing came the job of cleaning out her garage, filled with stuff, which hadn’t been used as a garage in over 60 years! I was overwhelmed just opening the door when along came an Angel named Emily Fawcett. We started with 3 big boxes Donate, Keep or Throw Away. Within a short period, Emily recommended a hauling service with two wonderful hard workers that was reasonably priced. Emily not only knew how to organize, but she knew how to do the job most efficiently in the quickest amount of time. She is trustworthy, caring, and professional.”

Downsizing

“My father broke his hip, and needed to move from his long term rental home in another town to come live with us. Again, notice was short, and I had no time off work. I called on Emily to help me with this move. She came to Newport several times, and together we went through my fathers 70 years worth of accumulated "stuff". She arranged for the donation truck and the trash hauler to come to the house, negotiating with both of them for the best price. She cleared out our garage from our own move, organizing and labeling drawers and cabinets, so we would have room for my fathers items.

I cannot recommend Emily more highly. She has not only earned my complete trust, but my complete respect as well. I did not know what to expect from a professional organizer - Emily has been above and beyond anything I could have ever imagined. I cannot express her value to me and my family, and am very proud to recommend her and her tremendous service to all.”

Downsizing

“I hired Emily to help me organize my pantry when we moved into our new house. When we started, it looked like a crazy mess and my family couldn’t find anything! When Emily arrived, she insisted on taking EVERYTHING out of the pantry so she could get a good look at all my food and take inventory. We then took a quick trip to the Container Store to find mini shelves and helpful storage items. When we got home, I let her get to work. When she was done, I didn’t even recognize my pantry. Everything was organized and labeled and I could actually see everything in the pantry. I HIGHLY recommend Emily for any organizing task. She is a master at what she does!”

“Emily is a miracle worker. She made my Client very happy. She saved the day and without her (the sale) never would have happened.”

“A senior client of mine who was recently widowed, was struggling with making the difficult decision to downsize to a smaller home. The overwhelming thought of moving and parting with sentimental items was too much for her to process. Emily was empathetic to my clients needs and was amazing in her ability to clearly communicate and effectively put a plan in place that worked for everyone. I highly recommend her services”
