When you come home after a busy day, which is more peaceful to greet you?
a. A room free of clutter with items in their places
b. A room where you rushed out, but it's easy to put things away
c. A room that overwhelms you when you walk into it
I once heard a speaker say that she wanted to be welcomed into her home when she came in, not attacked. I feel attacked when I come home to a lot of stuff everywhere. The simpler I can make a room so that I can just pick up easily, the better. We'll always have busy times where things don't get put away, but just having a place for everything is freeing.
Today I finished up a pretty notepad on a stand, so it is going away. I also got rid of an empty wooden tea box I had admired but done nothing with.
*Either a or b would work for me as answers to your question! :)
ReplyDeleteI am trying to find a place to store my George Foreman grill in my kitchen. Still haven't found a place for it, but while I was looking I found a crystal pitcher that I never use - so into the give-away box it goes!
