Emily Santos / Founder
Your home should support the life you actually live — and it can be both functional and beautiful.
​
Hi, I'm Emily, a home organizer and interior decorator in Seattle, and that belief is at the heart of everything I do at Essential Organizing LLC.
​
I work with everyone from busy families to retirees to create homes that are organized around what matters to them, decorated to reflect who they are, and designed to keep up with real life. Whether you're starting with a cluttered closet or a room that needs a refresh — or both — I'm here to help.

Organizing Services for Your Seattle Home
Life pulls us in all sorts of directions, and clutter has a way of piling up. Whether you are trying to tame an overflowing closet, want to simplify your kitchen, or want help downsizing, hiring a professional organizer can make all the difference. I have provided home organizing services to clients throughout the Seattle area and can save you time and create space for what matters to you.
I believe that an organized home is about creating simple and effective systems that work with your life and feel natural to you and your family—not about chasing perfection. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by clutter and are ready to make a change, Essential Organizing is here to help you feel relaxed and organized in your home.
Personalized Interior Decorating Services
I also offer personalized interior decorating services that match your style and fit your budget. While many interior decorators have project minimums, I offer packages that can fit a variety of budget ranges. Whether you want a new couch, help selecting paint colors, or completely redecorating your living room, I'll make sure your home looks and feels like you.

​
You can combine Essential Organizing’s interior decorating services with our organizing services for a thorough home refresh. That means, as we collaborate to identify items that may no longer fit your lifestyle, we can work together to create a space that works for you and matches your unique style without wasting time or money.
