I'm a minimalist and like everything really tidy and in order, she is a hoarder and messy and disorganised.
Any advice?

June has good ideas here. Also, if space allows, give her one room to put whatever she wants in it however she wants it. Mesh the rest of your stuff (kitchen utensils, books, clothes in the closets, etc) however you see fit, but give her that space.
And. Don't. Go. In. There.
It would drive you bonkers. BUT if you've meshed your stuff and she has a room of all her stuff and she still has more stuff, that's the line. She needs to pick and choose and get rid of whatever won't fit.
This is coming from someone who keeps a LOT of stuff, btw. Sometimes you just have to let go.
