Thank you for such an AMAZING workshop. The members are still chatting about how informative and helpful it was. We were all so impressed with your knowledge and loved the tips. I just put the drawer separators in and love it. Next I am onto changing my hangers in my walk in closet. You are a true professional and deserve much success in your life.
