Finally find your designs, photos, and templates without endless scrolling and get back to doing your actual work instead of searching.
A simple, sustainable organizing system for business owners who rely on Canva.Get Organized Now
You use Canva to save time and money…
But without a clear system in place, you’re spending far more of both than you realize: re-creating things you’ve already made, searching for files, and second-guessing yourself along the way.
The Real Cost of a Disorganized Canva Account
A messy Canva account doesn’t just feel frustrating — it slows down every part of your workflow.
Every time you scroll through pages of old designs, search through your uploads, or recreate something you know you already made, you’re losing time you could be spending on client work, marketing, or anything else on your plate.
Most business owners underestimate this. Even 10 minutes a day adds up to more than 40 hours a year — a full work week lost to Canva chaos.
Organizing Canva isn’t a luxury. It’s one of the simplest ways to reclaim your time, your clarity, and your capacity.
A cluttered Canva account adds friction to every task…
Finding the right version of a design, locating brand assets, re-uploading images you know you have somewhere, or recreating graphics from scratch.
Canva doesn’t usually feel overwhelming at the beginning. It becomes frustrating gradually — as designs pile up, uploads multiply, and nothing has a clear “home” anymore. This isn’t about using Canva incorrectly. It’s about outgrowing a workspace that was never set up to scale with you.
Clean Up My Canva walks you through a straightforward, step-by-step system that removes the overwhelm and gets your workspace working for you.
You’ll learn where to start, how to handle the existing piles of designs, uploads, and templates, and how to create a structure that’s easy to maintain long-term.
“My Canva account was a literal source of stress for me for years until I sat down to go through your program. My Canva cleanup went so much more smoothly than I thought it would, and getting on top of my Canva assets actually was quite cathartic. You’re a great teacher, and the course content was extraordinarily well-organized (how meta!).”
Imagine Logging into Canva with Everything in Its Place 😍
Here’s what a clean, organized Canva workspace can do for you (beyond just making things look neat!):
Reclaim your time: Say goodbye to endlessly scrolling and searching for files. With everything organized, you’ll spend less time digging through clutter and more time focusing on your creative work—or maybe even wrapping up early for the day!
Feel calm, cool, and collected: No more Canva chaos. Instead, you’ll feel a wave of relief every time you log in and know exactly where to find what you need—no guessing, no frustration, just clarity.
Take control like a pro: You’ll have a clear, organized system that’s easy to maintain, giving you confidence that your designs, templates, and brand assets are all right where you need them.
See fast results: This isn’t one of those drawn-out processes that feels like it will never end. The steps in this course are quick and simple, so you’ll see—and feel—the transformation in your Canva account right away.
Why This System Works (Even When You’re Stretched Thin)
Most people avoid organizing Canva because it feels like a time-consuming project. But this system breaks everything into small, doable steps that create immediate relief.
With Clean Up My Canva, you will:
Save hours every month by knowing exactly where everything lives
Stop wasting time recreating lost graphics or digging for assets
Make content creation faster and far less mentally draining
Keep your branding consistent without hunting through old files
Remove one of the biggest hidden sources of daily friction in your business
Build a structure your future self (and any team members) will actually use
This system isn’t about making things look better in Canva — it’s about making everything you do there easier.
“Thank you so much for this. Honestly, I can’t tell you how many courses I’ve purchased that I never start… and almost never finish. But I finished this one in just over a week. That says everything. Thank you, thank you, from the bottom of my sparkling-clean, beautifully organized Canva account.”

Before you decide, it’s important to be clear about what Clean Up My Canva is intentionally not designed to include.
There’s no fixed start date, schedule, or deadlines; the course is designed to be used on your timeline.
It doesn’t teach Canva design, branding, or how to make things look better — the focus is on how everything is organized behind the scenes so Canva is easier to work in.
Progress doesn’t depend on scheduled live calls or real-time interaction.
It doesn’t include one-on-one support or done-for-you organizing; the goal is to help you build a system you can maintain yourself.
It doesn’t follow a one-size-fits-all checklist that assumes everyone’s Canva content looks the same.
This Is a Calm, Practical Way to Get Organized
Clean Up My Canva is a calm, flexible system that helps you work more easily inside Canva by giving your designs, uploads, and templates a clear, repeatable home, both now, and as your content grows.
It’s intentionally self-paced and designed to fit into real life. You can work through it in small, manageable steps, without a fixed schedule or pressure to keep up. From time to time, I may offer optional office hours or support sessions, but they’re never required, and they’re never the only way to make progress.
“I was sceptical about paying for Brenda’s “Clean Up My Canva” course, but I am so happy I did! At first, the class seems super simple and basic, but in reality, it made me think entirely differently about my Canva account. As an active real estate agent, I had thousands of property photos, loads of duplicate uploads, and lots of “hands in the pot”. Now, I have a simple and clear organizational structure, and I’m excited to log in and easily find my images, designs and elements. Thank you!”
Canva Verified Expert, natural organizer, patient teacher, and lover of online tech
In kindergarten, while my classmates played with dolls and dress up clothes, I could be found sorting marbles and buttons and other items in the drawers of my teacher’s storage cabinet… according to shape, colour, and size.
I’ve always had a strong instinct for spotting patterns and bringing order to the things around me, whether that was paperclips and gel pens or filing cabinets and websites. What feels overwhelming to some people often feels clear to me once I can see how the pieces fit together.
Long before I became a Canva Verified Expert, I worked as a professional organizer specializing in taming piles of paper and creating intuitive filing systems for professionals and business owners.
That way of thinking has followed me everywhere. And especially when the world feels busy or uncertain, there’s real peace of mind in knowing where things live and being able to find them quickly. I might not know what’s happening tomorrow, but at least I know where everything is.
Through Clean Up My Canva, I want to help you build that same sense of clarity inside your Canva account — not by forcing you into a rigid system, but by helping you see patterns in your own content so organizing it finally feels doable.
The goal is simple: less time searching in Canva, and more time focused on your business and your life.
“I use Canva almost daily for myself and my clients, but my account was a hot mess—duplicated designs, multiple uploads of the same photos because I couldn’t find what I needed. Brenda’s program exceeded my expectations with so many ‘wow, I can do that?’ moments. I’m not fully organized yet, but I’m on my way, and it’s been easier than I thought. I can’t recommend Clean Up My Canva enough!”
No, this course works for both Canva Free and Canva Pro users. While Pro and Teams accounts offer a few additional features (like the ability to add keyword tags to designs and images), even Free users will gain significant value from the course and can create a highly organized workspace.
This course covers organizing all aspects of your Canva workspace, including designs, images, templates, and more. By the end, your entire account will be easy to navigate and maintain.
That’s a very real concern, and you’re not alone in feeling that way.
Clean Up My Canva is designed to help you save time and avoid redoing work you’ve already done which, over time, can absolutely save both time and money. When Canva is organized, content creation gets faster, decisions feel lighter, and you’re not constantly recreating or searching for things you know exist somewhere.
That said, if spending money on this right now would feel stressful or add pressure to an already full plate, it’s okay to hold off. This program isn’t going anywhere, and there’s no advantage to forcing the timing.
The time will vary depending on how long you’ve been using Canva and how much content you have.
If you’re new to Canva, you could be fully organized and ready to go in as little as an hour of focused effort. For those with thousands of designs and images, the project will take longer—but many students begin to see noticeable progress within just a few hours of focused work.
The course is designed to help you start making meaningful changes, no matter the size of your project.
You’ll receive a welcome email with instructions to access the course within 5-10 minutes of enrollment, and from there, you’ll have immediate access to all the lessons in full.
You’ll have lifetime access to the course content. If the course is ever retired, you’ll receive ample time (at least 2 weeks, but likely more) to download the videos for your own personal reference. This ensures you’ll always have the tools you need to stay organized.
No problem! The course is completely self-paced, and you’ll have lifetime access to the lessons. You can revisit them anytime and work at your own pace, whether that’s all at once or a little at a time.
As a student, you’ll have access to a complimentary bonus Facebook group where you can post questions if you’re feeling stuck. If there’s content missing from the course that would address your question, I always endeavour to make updates that provide the support you need.
Yes, you can! While this course is designed for individual users, it’s also a great resource for teams. If you’re interested in purchasing for multiple team members, please reach out via email for more information.
This course is focused entirely on the desktop version of Canva, which provides the best environment for organizing your workspace. At this time, the lessons are not applicable to the mobile app.
As Canva evolves, I update the lessons to reflect new features and changes specifically related to organization. You’ll always have access to the most up-to-date strategies for keeping your account tidy and efficient.
If you’d prefer to skip the DIY approach and have someone else handle it for you, I offer a done-for-you Canva Organization VIP Day. During this service, I’ll take care of organizing your account so you can focus on what you do best. You can learn more about this option here.
If you need a step by step framework to take control of your hot mess Canva account, I know this course will help you get started. However, if you feel like you don’t learn anything new or helpful for your organization in Canva, email me within 7 days from your purchase of the course and I’ll happily refund you.
If you have additional questions about the course, you’re welcome to reach out by email here and I’m happy to provide any further information you need before enrolling.
“As a long time Canva user I have TONS of images and files and spent hours searching for projects so I could update and reuse them in a campaign. Clean Up My Canva is brilliant and contained more than I even knew I needed! It goes step by step, with easy to follow explanations of how to use each tool and because Canva changes often, there are updates to keep me in the know. My productivity and enjoyment has tripled since I have cleaned up my Canva!”
