“When I first started my SparkJoy sessions with Katrina, I was in a major state of change in my life, moving houses and clearing out my mum’s home. I had fallen into a state of overwhelm, disorganisation and inertia, and it honestly seemed a surmountable task!

But that changed from the moment that I met Katrina, a positive, calm, kind, friendly person who then guided me through so many difficult decisions. Not only was the process efficient and I was always amazed by how much we got done each session - but we also had fun! Surprisingly satisfying and joyful to beautifully organise closets and drawers!

I already knew I wanted to be less weighed down by needless possessions; she showed me how to make positive and intentional decisions about what to keep and to have a place for everything. Not only did Katrina help me get to a place of order in my living space, but also I feel as though I learned a new way of day to day living through the Kon Mari method. Even packing for frequent travelling has become quick and organised, so I have more time to do the things I love.
Thanks Katrina!”

“You have to experience it to really understand the power of this method and Katrina’s work.

I love working with Katrina and think she is magic!”

“I want to express my gratitude for the amazing decluttering job Katrina helped me with. Her efforts have made my life so much easier and more organised. Working with Katrina was truly enjoyable, and I appreciate her professionalism and dedication to creating a harmonious living space. Thank you once again for your exceptional work Katrina.”

“Katrina was such a delight to work with and a true professional. Katrina helped me with decluttering my wardrobe and the mountain of clothes I had acquired over the years. I loved that the process had some meaning and her knowledge on storage solutions and how I used the space was invaluable. I still after 3 years use the methods she taught me not only in my wardrobe but also around my home.

Thank you Katrina for helping me spread joy in my home. ✨🌸”

“I can’t thank Katrina enough for the time she dedicated to helping me. When I first reached out to her I had this constant frustration that I couldn’t find the things that I needed and was always trying to remember where I’d left things last. I think the KonMari process was eye opening in allowing me to see how much stuff I’d accumulated and letting go of things that no longer served a need for me. Katrina was so thoughtful in organising everything so I could joy check it and also in helping me find workable solutions for the things I wanted to keep. She is such a positive, professional and kind person, I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. She’s done absolute wonders to my space and I feel like she’s given me some headspace back as well! Can’t thank her enough. Highly recommend.”

“We’ve been working with Spark Joy for the past 3 years and it’s been a life changing experience.
Katrina helped us when we first moved into our new house and she was truly remarkable. She will be back soon and we can’t wait to have her back.
She is pragmatic and energetic, she makes daunting tasks manageable and takes the terror out of knowing where to start. We appreciate Katrina’s help, she makes our life so much easier.
I highly recommend Katrina and her services.”

“Like a lot of people I had always thought of books as precious and things you kept for life. I also had carried them through various houses and amassed far more around the house than I realised. Katrina helped me see these books in a different way by considering each and every book rather than all of them as a whole. With no pressure to part with them, she helped me clear out the ones that were no longer useful like 9 various A-Zs and road maps! There were also those that whilst I needed them once or twice, and had once loved, I was unlikely to read again.

Without Katrina’s help I would have spent far too long perusing the books and then feeling bad for clearing them out and my shelves would still be packed! A few months later and I haven’t missed anything. My whole family can now see what we have and we’re able to enjoy those items. Katrina has helped me take on this approach with the rest of my house and is joining me for the parts of the journey when the hill seems too steep on my own. We all have those areas!”

“A wonderful experience to work with Katrina. A professional result that has given me so much pleasure and received many complements for visitors.”

“I have had the most incredible experience thanks to Katrina. Yes, she taught me the principles of The KonMari Method®, but more than that she helped adjust it to suit me, my business and my home.”

“Katrina came to my home to help me start my KonMari® journey by helping me to sort through my wardrobe and declutter. She then helped to arrange the clothes and other items in a way that has enabled me to be able to see more clearly what I have and amazingly I now find they are actually more comfortable to wear when stored neatly! A friend has since commented that they didn’t think I’d have time to arrange my clothes so neatly, but I actually find it saves me time as I now know where everything is in my wardrobe - no more frantic rummaging for a pair of socks - I can clearly see them all when I open my drawer!

I had read the Marie Kondo book a few years ago but had failed to get going with the process. Katrina was just what I needed! She has a calm and straightforward approach. She understands the process well and helped to gently guide and keep me focused. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Katrina.”

“I have followed Katrina for a while on Instagram having stopped and started my tidying journey on my own.

My husband booked a session with Katrina as a gift for my birthday! Having worked through some categories on my own Katrina spent the day with me in getting my children’s room sorted into a clear space for them to enjoy and see what toys they had to play with and avoid the overwhelm. Katrina offered some great tips throughout our day and my girls were so excited to see their clear room they immediately started to play together. They have even now started to discard the toys that no longer spark joy for them and their room has remained tidy!

I wouldn’t have any doubt in recommending Katrina to help you and I hope to work with her again soon in order to complete all the categories.”

“I previously had a miss match of cheap tacky plastics mixed with precious family heirlooms and I had once lost a valuable earing because it was poorly stored. Now I can see my favourites at a glance every day, I change my jewellery more often because alternatives are in sight and I have piece of mind knowing where the valuable ones are.”

“Since my kitchen has been done I’ve been inspired to actually take pride in it and clear up straight away rather than just create a pile of dishes.

Few things had a proper home and storage was stuffed full of useless stuff. Now that more space has been made putting things away is much easier and having a clear kitchen is so satisfying.”

“I work from a studio at home which I had previously shared with my husband. I called upon Katrina’s services to help me sort and review our joint book collection of over 400 books. I wanted the studio space to look attractive and creative, but still had to house both my art references books and my husband’s many business text books.

Katrina was an inspiration and worked incrediably hard. She was patient in allowing me to review each book and consider it’s worth and if each was still needed. The result was the most amazing colour rainbow of books, which made my creative space a complete joy. I have had so many comments from customers and family about how great the book shelves look.”

“Toys: a single word, but it’s implication was ‘overwhelm’ to me. Katrina totally transformed my perception of them. Now they’re beautifully stored! Incredible.”

“Katrina is beyond amazing. She helped me declutter and create a neat, organised system. She’s super quick, efficient, resourceful and kind. Highly recommended.”

“I’m still so happy with how Katrina’s organised my wardrobe. I went to a vintage fair this weekend and was restrained, only buying two things – I think that’s down to her influence. The session is something I still talk to friends and family about and can’t recommend it enough. ”

“My favourite cupboard is our art cupboard: as I run a childcare business our arts and crafts are vast, so our supplies are just as vast. Each thing has it’s own little space beautifully and clearly labelled. This means that nothing unnecessarily kept or bought.”

“The minute Katrina stepped into my home, I knew I was in good hands. I have read Marie Kondo’s book so I (thought) I knew roughly what to expect until Katrina turned up with her kind aura & smiley face.

Katrina brought another level of efficiency, the extra support mentally and physically which is hugely needed but often something we don’t always prioritise.

We started off in my bedroom and worked our way around the flat. Everything feels soooo much lighter after the tidying. This feeling is priceless. ♥️

I’m pleased to say, my brother saw an amazing transformation and started tidying his room weeks after which is a huge achievement! Katrina is Godsent, I highly recommend working with her! Thank you Katrina!”

“I had read the ‘Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up’ and loved the concept but struggled to find the time and motivation to start my journey. However Katrina changed that for me completely in just two evenings.

We went through my entire wardrobe (and some of my husband’s!) and it was amazing. I had never managed to clear out my clothes properly before and was worried about how I would feel getting rid of things, but I actually loved it. Katrina made the whole process so easy and enjoyable, taking the time to explain the method to me and really making me think about what I had in my wardrobe and if it sparked joy.

My sessions with Katrina completely changed how I think about my possessions and now I open my wardrobe and am happy to see all the clothes inside, and find it much easier to find an outfit I feel good in. I am now working hard to apply the KonMari Method® to the whole of our house and life. It’s taking some time due to me having two small boys but my sessions with Katrina were a definite catalyst and inspired me to apply the method to other areas. Friends and family have noticed a difference in our home.

I would thoroughly recommend working with Katrina and the KonMari Method® to transform your home and life. ”

“I am starting to have more time to myself than facing endless chores and I feel happier for it. We’ve still some more categories to tackle some I feel confident to do myself and some I just find overwhelming and don’t know where to begin so Katrina will be guiding me through it. I’ve come to the conclusion that the KonMari Method® is like staying fit, it’s not just a crash diet or mega clear out, it’s a change in your way of life and it’s definitely beneficial.

Katrina is the perfect consultant for this process she is patient and understanding when I’m being indecisive yet firm and able to offer solutions when needed.

Just sorting through the laundry cupboard highlighted too many duplicates and sheets that no longer fit the size beds we have. Now I have an efficient amount of spares ready to be used when sheets and towels need changing.”

“I couldn’t believe that I found 7 bottles of deodorant stashed all over the house! They’re now all in one place, and I wont need to buy any for half a year!”

“Recently I had to dress in business wear for the first time since we redid my cupboard. I was actually excited knowing exactly what I was going to wear and where each item was stored. I don’t normally ever get excited about getting dressed; to me it’s just a practical thing. But today I definitely found joy in my clothes and cupboard beautifully organised. ”

“Having these books stored so nicely really makes such a difference to the atmosphere of the room. Bedtime is supposed to be calm and relaxing, not a chaotic mess!”

“I could buy the book, learn the principles and try apply them. But with Katrina holding my hand and guiding me through the process my home has become one great big JOY to live in. Katrina - you are my hero. Thank you so much.”

“I hate Tupperware, it’s so messy. Not anymore ~ I adore my kitchen Tupperware cupboard. The rainbow ordering puts a smile on my face every day when unpacking the dishwasher. It’s the simple pleasures.”

“For my husband and I, our biggest arguments stem from a single cupboard. The order that spices and herbs are stored in has to make sense for the people using them. Searching for the right way to store them was always difficult, but with Katrina’s help, they are now ordered in a way which works for the both of us.”

“I have loads of children’s books for the childcare I provide. They were everywhere! They are now organised, categorised and easily accessible according to the themes I teach by.”

“I was dreading tackling my sentimental cards, letters and daughter’s artwork. I had boxes of it! Katrina and I did my spark joy checks with each item and after really valuing each one; I was able to keep the very special items. It was much easier than I expected.”

“My day with Katrina was a total revelation. It was scary how much stuff I had, but by the end of our session I had chucked out loads and re-organised what was left into some kind of extremely satisfying order. I highly recommend you look into Katrina’s services and the KonMari Method®, it’s a game changer!”

“Katrina has transformed my wardrobe. I can now see what clothes I have and it makes it so much easier to manage. We got rid of 7 bin bags, which were all donated to charity so I was able to help a good cause at the same time. It has also stopped me from buying duplicate outfits as I can see what I already have. Katrina was a pleasure to work with and I look forward to her transforming other areas of my home. Everyone I show the photos to are extremely jealous of my lit up shoe closet! I would thoroughly recommend Katrina.”

“I no longer used many of these lotions and they were scattered everywhere, in my bed room and in two bathrooms. I’d never had a clear out of them and so they space that has been made is brilliant. I now only have what I use to hand and also came across some forgotten useful bottles. Out of date medicines have been replaced and we are fully stocked for medical issues.”

“My clothes are now all visible and I wear so much more than just what was at the top of the washing pile.

I had 30 pair of black tights! I had no idea until we gathered them all together so now I have a sensible collection of 7. ‘Seasonal’ clothes have been rescued from the suitcase, under the bed or in the loft eves and are now stored in my wardrobe so I can see them.

I used to hesitate buying new things because I couldn’t remember if I already had something similar or if the new item would match other clothes of mine.
It’s clear to see now what I have and if I actually need to buy anything new. Before I got carried away throwing things out, only keeping items that sparked joy, we discussed functional items that enable my work or going for muddy dog walks which are activities that do spark joy, so the old clumpy trainers stayed and when I open the draw and see them they make me smile.”

“I was worried about the dreaded kitchen cupboards. We thought we’d need more storage since the day we moved in. No, the items just needed some organising - it’s now practically stored and functional. We love it!”

“Thank you Katrina for coming to help me. I now know how to start tidying and look forward to the rest of my journey. ”

“What an extraordinary experience. I have just returned from taking NINE large bags of clothes (and a few shoes and ties!) to be recycled. I feel lighter than air, and I keep opening my sock drawer just to admire the contents.”
