WELCOME TO VIVA ORGANIZING!
HELPING YOU GET FROM CLUTTER TO CALM
ORGANIZING DOESN'T HAVE TO BE A CHORE. YOU JUST NEED A SYSTEM THAT WORKS FOR YOUR LIFESTYLE.
HOME OFFICE & PAPERWORK
A cluttered home office space makes it hard to be productive. It’s easy to lose focus and feel overwhelmed. Viva Organizing will help you create an organized space that fits your work style.
It’s also challenging to maintain the sheer volume of paper that enters our homes. The world is not paperless yet! Everyday bills, financial statements, schoolwork, home projects, insurance papers, medical records, legal documents, taxes, estate plans … All of it can pile up fast and feel overwhelming.
We’ll help you create a filing system that makes sense to you and is easy to maintain. This will clear the backlog of paper that may be in piles and boxes or on desktops. We’ll advise on what to keep, scan, shred, backup, save to the cloud, or save on a hard drive.
And we know it’s not always possible to keep up, so we can return monthly or quarterly if you need us.
An organized workspace will give you the fresh start you need to be more efficient!
WINE COLLECTIONS
Are you ready to digitize your wine collection?
A digital tracking system is essential for small and large wine collections. A spreadsheet can be used to catalog your wines but keeping it up to date is tedious and time-consuming. Let us organize and digitize your wine collection using a wine inventory application.
We’ll select the appropriate application for your needs and input all your bottles. We can also assign a unique bar code and label for each bottle. Using the digital wine inventory application, you’ll be able to quickly access your list of wines from a phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop. You’ll be able to sort by variables including vintage, producer, varietal, region, purchase date, drink-by-date, and others.
The application includes a scanner that makes it easy to add or delete bottles. When it’s time to add or delete a bottle, simply scan the bar code or the label on the bottle and an image of the bottle will come up on your screen. Click add or consume and include any notes you want for the wine. It’s that easy to maintain!
Digitizing your wine collection will help you make new purchases strategically, avoid missing “Drink by” dates and most importantly, you’ll have more time to enjoy your wine!

COLLECTIBLES
Have you recently inherited a collection of items and are unsure of their value or provenance? Or are you thinking about downsizing by selling some of the items you no longer use or enjoy?
Figuring out an item’s worth, deciding if you should sell it, and then how to price it can be frustrating. We work with you to find out how to get the most value for your treasures. You may have china, sterling silver, crystal, vases, figurines, coin collections, stamp collections, jewelry, sports memorabilia, or other valuables.
Once we have determined the value of your items, we’ll advise you about resale options including consignment, auction houses, internet stores, or other venues.
If you have items that may be worth something, but you are unsure what to do next, our Collectibles Advisor will be happy to guide you to the solution.

MEET JOAN CROOK, MBA
I started Viva Organizing because I have always enjoyed organizing. Growing up I collected coins, stamps, butterflies, insects, shells, and depression glass … and all my collections were beautifully arranged!
I’ve had previous careers in high-tech market research, non-profit agency management, and higher education contracts and grants. My experience includes organizing people, paper, numbers, and things! Viva Organizing is a perfect fit for my passion to help people promote simplicity and calm in their lives through organization.
My team and I are here to help you organize your home office, paperwork, and/or wine collection. We can also assist you in evaluating your collectibles. You will be amazed at the joy an uncluttered environment brings. Contact us today!
