Partners in Design with Easy Life Organizing
By McDaniels Kitchens and Bath|Events
We continued our Partners in Design event series in April with Amanda Liford of Easy Life Organizing. Our Partners in Design events are a highlight of our monthly calendar at McDaniels Kitchen and Bath where we get to welcome a new design partner to our Lansing, MI showroom to tell us about their business or organization. These popular events are fun and educational!

What is Partners in Design?
McDaniels Partners in Design event series offers us a unique opportunity to bring a new local business or organization to our Lansing, MI showroom each month. These local businesses and organizations join us to share their experience, business journey, products, services, and volunteering opportunities with our participants. Each month, we welcome a new design partner, which means every month is an opportunity to learn about a new business or organization in our local area. We are amazed at the variety of businesses and organizations that make our corner of the world one-of-a-kind.
Our April Design Partner: Easy Life Organizing
Our April design partner was Amanda Liford of Easy Life Organizing. Amanda has a passion for order, is a master at managing clutter, and excels at getting (and staying) organized. She is a Certified Home Organizer and has spoken at a variety of seminars and conferences. Her mission through her company is to craft unique solutions that transform overwhelming spaces into living spaces. We were inspired by her organization tips and insights, and inspired to get to work on organizing our own homes and lives!

What Happened at Our April Event?
Amanda joined us in our Lansing, MI showroom on April 15, 2025, for an afternoon of education and fun. We had a great session with Amanda, where she told us about her background and certification as a home organizer. She shared with us her quick wins for organizing and how to avoid discussion fatigue when planning for home organizing. Amanda also told us about her favorite project, which is organizing the garage.
She also shared with our participants how they help customers to avoid becoming overwhelmed with the organizational process, or a remodel, or just for a home organization project. She offered great tips on how to keep your home organized for families with multiple people, kids, different layouts, and more. Her company is constantly developing new formats to help customers with their organizing needs, such as packing and unpacking for customers who are moving.
It was a great, interactive presentation. One of our guests, Pat, even won the prize draw, receiving an entire box of organizing tools!
