About the Book
In Organize First, Decorate Second, Whitney English provides more than practical organizational advice; she teaches you how to design and structure a home in a way that is as functional as it is meaningful and beautiful.
Alongside encouraging you to identify your personal style values, she includes suggestions for selecting investment pieces, editing decorative collections, choosing good lighting, and customizing systems that work for everyone. Each chapter is a mix of heartwarming anecdotes, practical advice, and innovative strategies.
Throughout the book, Whitney will help you establish:
- - balance between creativity and organization;
- - inspiration coupled with practical advice;
- - and efficiency without sacrificing creativity.
This book isn’t just about making your home look good—it’s about making your home a reflection of your best self. Being able to envision the story you want your home to tell can equip you to patiently curate a home that is welcoming, restful, functional, and purposeful all at once. So what are you waiting for? Join Whitney today and learn how you can transform your living spaces into zones of beauty and effectiveness.

About the Author
Whitney English has learned that life is a curious mix of chaos and occasional brilliance, and if you can’t find beauty in the mess, you’re not looking hard enough. She earned a degree in interior design and completed graduate work at Parsons in New York City, and her work has appeared in O magazine, the Wall Street Journal, and on NBC’s TODAY. These days, she shares her adventures with her husband, David, their three children, a codependent Cavapoo, a rabbit with questionable manners, and most recently, a flock of ducks.
