Initial Consultation
We want to get you to know YOU. During your initial consultation, we will discuss your needs + vision, take measurements, and discuss timelines and budgets. Please don't clean the space before we come; it is helpful to see it as-is.
The Process
Working with a professional can significantly enhance your mental and emotional well-being. Our compassionate team is dedicated to supporting you through every step of the process:
Step 1
Declutter & Strategize
We believe that decluttering is not about getting rid of everything, but about finding what's essential to you and your lifestyle. Our process involves understanding what you own, your relationship to it, and how you use it, so we can make supportive about what stays and goes.
Step 2
Organize & Systemize
Are you tired of buying more bins and baskets without seeing any improvement in your home organization? We understand that a system is you really need. Our team specializes in creating and implementing solutions and systems that are tailored to your lifestyle and space.
Step 3

Meet Heidi
I'm Heidi Sawyer, the founder and lead organizer at Makes Sense.
My passion for home organization and beautiful design has been with me since childhood. I also co-own a residential painting company (Sawyer's Painting) here in Spokane, Washington, and run a coaching business with my husband and fellow coach, Ryan. With over seven years as a mindset and neuro coach with IHP Coaching, I've empowered many women to overcome mental and emotional barriers to live their desired lives.
As a mother, I understand the importance of creating systems that everyone in the household can easily follow to maintain a tidy and organized space. Home organization is more than just stylish containers; it involves decluttering, breaking through emotional attachments to our belongings, and learning to make confident, empowered decisions. Starting with your physical space can create more room for what truly matters.
I am dedicated to assisting women in creating a peaceful and manageable home, allowing them to cherish motherhood and pursue their passions. In addition to organizational services, I continue to coach women on deeper mental and emotional tools at IHP Coaching. Let's work together to transform your home and life
