I’m Darice Heyns, born and raised in South Africa and now living in Lake Oswego for over 22 years.

I originally came to America to work as an occupational therapist and decided a few years ago to transfer my skills and love for organizing, to becoming a professional home organizer.

I started ORDE because I wanted to combine my skills as and occupational therapist with my passion for organizing and style, using my abilities to create spaces with are both functional and stylish.

My mission as a luxury home organizers to not only assist clients with decluttering and organizing, but to take it a step further and create a home that clients are excited to return to every day.

I achieve this by using a 3 step method:

Eliminate Clutter - Establish Order - Elevate Surroundings.

Have you ever entered the lobby of a 5 star hotel and just felt miserable? Of course not! You probably felt a number of positive emotions as you entered that warm, inviting and aesthetically pleasing space.

What if you could recreate that feeling when you walked into your own home?

Our homes are where we spend the majority of our time and the vast majority of our money, so why would we not make the beautification of our homes a priority?

There are many wonderful home organizers who help their clients declutter and organize their homes. I take it a step further and curate a space that is elegant, inspiring and a joy to come home to. A home where you feel inspired to take every day living up a notch or two by incorporating some of the elements that make upscale hotels, places we yearn visit.

I do this by helping my clients declutter and only keep what truly reflects their style. I then organize the home in a way that is practical and manageable but also stylish and beautiful.

Next is the cherry on the top where we elevate living to another level by adding special elements and establishing lifestyle management tasks to enable clients to feel like a special guest in their own homes.
