At a time of year when everyone is focused on "things," it's important to remember that often the gift of your time and skills or simply arranging to take care of something that needs to be done, makes the the best Christmas present. These aren't sexy or glamorous but we're sure the recipient will appreciate them.Help clean something out. Through our organizing business, Simple Moves, we've found two of the hardest places for people to tackle are closets and garages.

Every Christmas I create a gift basket for my family gift exchange full of my favorite just-the-right-thing finds. The goal is to keep the cost around $50.00. This year I thought it would be fun to share some of the contents of my baskets.  Read more >

About Me: 

My name is Nancy Giehl and I live in Boulder, Colorado. I've been married almost 30 years. My three kids are in college. I own a small business, Simple Moves, that helps people organize, downsize and settle in after moving, with my fabulous partner, Joan. We published our first book, Organize Pack Move! Strategies and Money-Saving Ideas to Simplify Your Move in October 2009.

While Joan and I haul stuff out of people's homes we constantly discuss what things are working and not working in our lives. We've found that as our kids are leaving, and parents aging, things that worked for us before aren't working now. The more we talked about it the more we thought there have to be thousands of women out there just like us. In November  2009 Joan and I launched our blog, Just the Right Things - Practical, cool stuff and ideas for women who are switching gears. Come check us out!
