Gifts We Use: About Me

Journey to a clutter free house and life

About the author

My name is Ferly Tangonan and I am a wife and mommy to a 3 year old boy. Before becoming Wife and Mommy, I worked in various fields of business. My work experience ranges from administration, guest service, web site maintenance, and business planning to name a few. Today I am a homemaker and blogger hoping my gifts can bless others.

My gifts and passions include organizing space and time {in a non-scifi sort of way}, maximizing the beauty and efficiency in all that I do, and encouraging others by my words and my example.

About the blog

I have real messes in my house, but it wasn't always this way. I mentioned before, I adore organizing, but sometimes life and motherhood get ahead of sorting and filing. That's what happened in my case. I got busy being a mom and trying to survive, leaving me little time and energy to do what I love. Then I discovered something that lit a fire under me and got me energized to begin again...blogs!

My goal for this blog is to inspire you to make positive change in your home and life. This blog was born out of the inspiration I have gained from other blogs on organizing and design, but at my real life, average Jane level. In this first year of blogging, my focus will be on no-cost and low-cost organizing, technology, and my adventures in blogging.
