CBR Life Designs has been serving clients since 2017. We specialize in helping people declutter their homes and lives using the Swedish concept of Death Cleaning as our foundation. This approach enables you to live with intention while leaving a positive legacy for your family and friends—one filled with blessings rather than burdens.
None of us live forever; when your time comes, you can only take your knowledge and experiences with you. We focus on organizing your belongings, paperwork, digital files, memorabilia, and more. We aim to create peace of mind for you, allowing you to enjoy the rest of your years without leaving any questions or burdens for your loved ones.
What legacy will you leave behind?
Declutter To Leave a Legacy…
Using the principles of Swedish Death Cleaning, we will guide you step by step through the process of decluttering your home and your life. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions about your belongings and your estate, allowing you to focus on living your best life without leaving burdens for your family to manage after you're gone.
Declutter To Design…
Creating a functional and beautiful design in a cluttered space can be quite challenging. Let us assist you in decluttering your area to make room for the peace and beauty you deserve in your life. We will apply the principles of Swedish Death Cleaning while also designing functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces for you to enjoy once the downsizing process is complete.
What is Swedish Death Cleaning?
The term "Swedish Death Cleaning" may sound morbid, but it is not! This practice comes from the cultural norms of the Swedish people, who believe they should manage their belongings and estate planning before they pass away. This way, their family members are not overwhelmed after their death. Margareta Magnusson introduced this concept to the world in her 2017 book, “The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning.”
Swedish Death Cleaning is a decluttering form reflecting love for your family and yourself. It encourages intentional living and the idea of surrounding yourself with only those things that bring you joy, ultimately helping to create a meaningful legacy. The items you leave behind tell a story about who you were in life. What story do you want to tell?
In this process, we tackle the following:
- All belongings
- Collections
- Memorabilia
- Digital files
- Paperwork
- How do you decide what to keep and how to organize items for estate planning?
- Intentional living to curate a unique legacy
- Planning for the distribution of your belongings after you are gone.
- Beautifying your space in intentional and functional ways
