Mummas, we get it: life is a constant juggle and your home is a mess. Even before 8am you’ve dressed multiple little people, hung a load of laundry, made lunches, packed school bags, and harried the kids into the car. You spend all day tidying and yet your home still looks like a bomb’s hit it. Well, we have found your golden ticket: Carmen Strong.

Carmen is a local mum to two young children and she’s also an incredible stylist and homemaker. Her Insta feed is so beautiful (read: stylish, polished, and organised) that she has 60,000 followers! Where Mary Poppins is the ultimate nanny, Carmen is the ultimate homemaker, and people around the world follow her to get tips on everything from styling a home-office space to how best to organise a pantry.

Carmen’s home-organisation Insta feed became so popular this year that she decided to take her tips from general to personalised. AND, lucky for us Coasties, Carmen is local, so she can visit you in person in your home and sort out your individual pain points! How’s that for awesome bespoke servicing. Ooo yeah, I can feel the booty dances happening!

Here’s how it works…. Think about the aspects of your home that are a headache and always a mess – is it your bulging pantry? Is it your laundry? Is it your wardrobe? Carmen will check them out and then give you really practical and easy solutions to fix it.

In-Home Orgnisation Consultation

If you want to treat yourself this Christmas then seriously consider investing in the Little Strong Home In-Home Organisation Consultation – we promise you won’t regret it! Completely tailored to you and your home, this bespoke package will not only help you to unwind as we approach the holidays (yes please!), but it will also leave you feeling clear-headed and ready to tackle 2022 like a boss.

Here’s how it works:

  • You’ll get an initial questionnaire sent to you which will help Carmen to better understand what space you would like to focus on (one space per consultation).
  • A suitable consultation time will then be arranged.  
  • During the consultation, you’ll discuss pain points and how these challenges can be overcome.
  • Carmen will create a plan for you on how to organise the space and she’ll propvide you with a shopping list of exactly what to purchase and where from (all within your budget and style brief).
  • Carmen will create a sketched floor plan/mood board to help you visualise your new space. 
  • You’ll come away with an action plan on how to execute your project with confidence!

When: Lead times are usually between 2-4 weeks (contact Carmen if urgent).
Inclusions: See above list | $300.
Contact: Call Carmen on 0448 822 760 or email [email protected].

Here are some more examples of how she can work her magic and help you:

+ Pantry Edit: Do you look in your pantry and think, “Where are the bandaids?”, “Where is the maple syrup?” Do you have 5 half-used bottles of baby panadol and 3 open packets of dissociated coconut? Carmen will give you a step-by-step guide on how to start and finish organising your pantry and everything in between, including videos of how to. She’ll even throw in a $10 Luxe Labels voucher that you can spend on customised vinyl labels + advice on budgeting, labelling and maintaining your new TIDY pantry!

+ Virtual Home Organisation Consultation: This virtual consultation package allows you to access Carmen’s organisational prowess from anywhere in the world! It works in the same way as the In-Home Consultation, only virtually – and it’s just 60 minutes long so perfect if you’re a working parent and want to squeeze it into your lunch break!

+ Mood Board: Get a real feel for just how expertly organised and stylish an area in your home can be with Carmen’s uniquely tailored mood board.
