I was feeling a lot of stress. I had several piles of mail on my kitchen counter, a lot of it unopened, that had been sitting there for some time and I knew I needed to address it and find a way to sort it and file it.
I called on Steve Adams from Creative Space Organizing and within a 2 session period, we went through all the mail, sorted it, purged a lot of it and created new updated files to which I could place important documents for reference. I had papers in that pile I needed for my taxes, and with Steve’s help I was able to round up everything I needed for my accountant. That was a huge relief.
Having that paper there was like a weight and a continual reminder that I needed to address it. Now it is gone and I have my counter space back. Steve helped make space in my filing cabinets and to have the most pertinent and most recent files and paperwork where I could retrieve it on demand. He helped create a system that I can easily adhere to. I plan on having Steve return to assist in organizing my clothes closets and the remainder of my filing cabinets. Thanks so much!

In just a few hours Steve helped me turn a pile of clutter into a cozy and inviting reading nook. He did so with humor and practicality, even helping me go through those boxes of possessions that had an emotional charge. Just taking care of one little corner of my room helped turn it into a more livable space. I would have him back any day to help me tackle the rest of my apartment.

Steve has worked for me in a freelance capacity for the past 9 years and over that time I have enjoyed his positive presence he brings to the work place, a great sense of humor and a consistently focused work ethic. He is willing to work for last minute calls, including late night event strikes. He works well with other employees, creating a sense of camaraderie and connection and works hard to complete the projects and tasks in a timely manner, and do what it takes to get the job completed.
He has helped me organize my warehouse space, by offering suggestions and helping with creating systems so the many events we produce can go off more effortlessly. His keen eye for flow has helped me create greater order in the warehouse.
He recently helped me with a large inventory sale and he staged the sale and the items in a very pleasing and enticing manner that helped me sell the majority of my stock. It took a big burden off of me and gave me the time to sell without worrying about that end of the event.
I have been really lucky and thankful to have Steve’s great attitude, work ethic, organizing skills and support these many years. I know he will be a great asset to anyone who hires him for their work or home organizational needs.

Steve’s bright, competent and hard working capabilities have helped me run an event and floral division of Northern California’s largest prop and tenting company. I can give him the specifics for any event and, with his skill, speed and creative agility, I know that he will deliver what I need as promised to the client. He works great with other employees and has such a positive and upbeat demeanor, it is a pleasure being around him.
Steve has helped me and my assistant with keeping the event’s organized and arriving to their destination on time and in perfect condition. He facilitates keeping the work space clean, organized and managing the tools we use so they are easily located for other’s use.
He recently helped me in my home. I gave birth a year ago and have been busy raising my daughter and working. As a working mother, I find it challenging to keep order in my home where space is at a premium. With the barrage of baby gifts and clothing I received, they had become piled high in the living room along with assorted magazines on my coffee table and a large stack of mail that I didn’t want to deal with. Steve eagerly pulled all the mail out and we began sorting, purging and filing. I was thrilled to see my entry table surface again and to have important bills and documents I could easily and quickly locate. We purged the magazines and sorted all the baby’s clothing into clear bins marked by ages up to 4T! These went to the garage and I had a great part of my living room back. My dining table had become a catchall for clothing and purses and these things were sorted and put where they belonged and I had yet another clear surface to enjoy and use.
Steve has a natural finesse and ability to assess an organizing dilemma and arrive at great, workable solutions. I was initially embarrassed to have him see the state my house was in. Yet, with a gracious and non judgmental attitude, I quickly gave in to his organizing skills and am so glad I did.

I have worked with Steve for the past 4 years, as he has freelanced for my company, Branch Out Floral and Event Design. Steve brings a warmth, enthusiasm, excitement and joyful spirit to the workplace that helps keep others motivated and inspired. He works hard to execute the client’s vision and does what it takes to get the job done with humor and grace. He works with me, listening and following the directives I give so I can satisfy the demands of the coordinator and client.
A couple years back, I shared a warehouse space with another floral company, so space was tight. Steve organized the shelving units and the items we used so that we could access them easily and have greater flow in the storage area. This space had previously grown so unruly that it was hard to get to needed props and containers. With Steve’s system, we could all reach what we needed when we needed it, and when items came back to the warehouse, we could return them to their designated homes.
I also had a large project of purging and sorting through the belongings of several relatives I had inherited and kept for years. Steve helped me make short order of what to let go of and what to keep. I felt so relieved and unburdened by letting go of so much stuff. I donated these items so others could benefit from these unused things. I kept just a few special items and gained a lot of space for my business.
I know Steve’s organizational skills would benefit any client who used his services. I am certain he could assess a situation and create a variety of wonderful and workable solutions.
