Is any surface in your home bare? The design craze on HGTV and other places has driven us to feel that our living spaces aren't complete unless matching/coordinating items grace the tops of our dressers, counters, end tables, etc. Why do we feel we have to place a magazine 'just so' on a coffee table, or many little figurines on top of the piano?
I challenge you to clear off two places of ALL items. Leave them clear for a week. If you find it's easier to dust, makes the room seem larger and more relaxing to glance around, clear two additional surfaces and give away more of the tchotchkes you own.
Today I am giving away a snowman doll that used to just sit around as decor.
*Note: please don't avoid inviting people like me over to your home, thinking we will analyze and criticize your choices. My posts are only suggestions to bring to mind possible decluttering ideas you may not have considered. Warm hospitality is infinitely more important than a "perfect" home!
