#HASHTAG: BROOKE MILTON
By Morgan Hogerty
ILLUSTRATION BY TOM BACHTELL
For BROOKE MILTON, the proverbial notion that “everything has a place” has been a lifelong belief. In fact, Milton jokes that she could have started an organizing business when she was 4 years old. Now, she’s trying to declutter the world one closet at a time. Known around the North Shore as The Duchess of Declutter, and in her inner circles as The Duchess, Milton has an enormous appetite for eradicating clutter. She is also a creative trifecta as, along with her organizing services, Milton also offers interior design and custom woodworking services (via “made by jbm” with her firefighter husband). Here is how this organizer extraordinaire stays on trend between projects
#ON MY NIGHTSTAND
The Pinkalicious series is currently on my nightstand. At the moment, I’m well-versed in literature aimed at the 7-year-old reader.
#ON MY MOBILE
If I’m not ordering storage supplies for a project, I’m learning about paint colors. There are so many shades of white and gray, and each one is characteristically unique. I spend a lot of time on Benjamin Moore’s website educating myself about trends, color families, and lighting influences.
#IN MY EARBUDS
I love rock with a good beat. Panic! At The Disco is at the top of my list. I love the energy and tempo of their songs. I don’t often turn on music when I’m working but when I do “Victorious” and “Hallelujah” are musts.
