In this heartfelt and deeply practical session of our Woven Loft Masterclass Series, we sat down with Rohini, the founder of Organize with Ease, a mom, entrepreneur, and the driving force behind countless beautifully organized homes across India. With years of experience and her signature system that’s helped thousands, Rohini shared her tried-and-tested wisdom on how to simplify, streamline, and truly live in our spaces — especially when life (and toys!) feel overwhelming.
Modern Homes, Real Challenges
We kicked off by addressing the realities of modern homes: walk-in wardrobes, open shelving systems, and the increasing need for visibility and functionality. Rohini emphasized that while storage systems have evolved, the core principle remains: keep only what you truly need. Decluttering isn't just about removing items; it's about choosing what you love and want to keep — a mindset shift that changes everything.
“Decluttering isn't about letting go. It's about choosing what you want to keep. That’s the real game-changer.” – Rohini
Decluttering: Not Just a Task, But a Mindset
Inspired by traditional practices like "Diwali Safai", Rohini challenges the old systems like "one in, one out," especially in a world of fast-paced online shopping. Instead, she encourages us to shop our own wardrobes, pick our favourites, and reset our spaces with intention. This approach can be applied across the home — from kids’ rooms and crockery units to books and linens.
The Power of Visual Harmony
Uniform bins, matching hangers, and clean labeling — these aren't just for aesthetics. Rohini explained how visual clutter silently contributes to stress, and how consistent organizing systems create subconscious calm. Especially in walk-in wardrobes and visible storage units, a sense of harmony through labels and baskets helps every family member know what goes where.
Labels: A Non-Negotiable
Whether for kids, guests, or staff-run homes, labels help build independence. From early learning for children to streamlining routines, labeled bins, drawers, and shelves bring clarity and accountability. Rohini’s approach is especially valuable for households with changing support staff or growing children.
Our Shared Obsession: Baskets
Baskets and bins are the backbone of Rohini’s organizing system — and ours too. Whether for wardrobes, kitchens, bathrooms, or kids’ outdoor gear, baskets offer structure, accessibility, and a system you can stick to. She shared how large baskets for odd-sized toys or sports equipment help group categories and allow easy transitions, especially when kids take their play outside.
Kids' Rooms: Embracing the Mess
Rohini is honest about parenting: kids come with stuff, and stuff gets messy. Instead of expecting perfect spaces, she recommends creating systems that children can follow. The key:
- Keep less
- Use bins for categories
- Involve kids in clean-ups
- Use file folding for their drawers (especially sorted by color)
These simple changes give children a sense of autonomy while keeping chaos manageable.
Small Spaces, Big Solutions
Not every home has extra room — but organization can create space where there isn’t any. From risers on bathroom counters to caddies for bath time, Rohini encourages functional, waterproof, and accessible solutions that serve current needs, rather than saving for an uncertain future.
“Your home should support the life you’re living now, not the life you might live someday.”
Storage Accessories: What Every Home Needs
Rohini's must-haves:
✔️ Uniform bins and baskets
✔️ Labeled caddies for kids' activities
✔️ Storage boxes with lids for keepsakes
✔️ Mobile organizers for outdoor or art supplies
Final Words: Simplicity, Systems & Sustainability
As we wrapped up, it was clear: Rohini’s approach is rooted in mindfulness and practicality. She believes that an organized home is not just visually pleasing but supports better parenting, peaceful mornings, and more intentional living.
We were also thrilled to hear that Rohini regularly uses our Woven Loft products — Forli basket, Helsinki basket, Clayton basket & shillong baskets baskets made with natural materials, handcrafted by artisans, and designed to blend beauty with function.
