Two Camps

In talking with a fellow declutteror (?) yesterday, I thought about two different camps we fall into.  One is the hotel room preference; another is the Grandma's attic preference.  Some fall between these two.

I am the hotel room, with a few warm fuzzies around.  My friend is the Grandma's attic.  She recently downsized to an apartment, and it felt stark and cold until she was able to unpack memorabilia and warm memory decor onto shelves, dressers, etc.  Neither of us is wrong.  Clutter is when there's too much stuff you don't like or use lying around, impeding productivity of the household.

Keep your favorite memorabilia and decor, but get rid of the extra junk.
