I always want to do more with less. The principle of less is more doesn’t always work with my communication style. I have a tendency to talk, and talk, in a slightly disorganized fashion, especially when it comes to this house remodel. So stick with me on this post…
I’ve collected objects & furniture over the last 15 years thru barter, cash or early on, thru the painful lessons of credit. Objects & furniture I considered as investments; artwork, sculpture, not merely viewed as a chair. Part of my collecting process: pony up the funds, pick it up, live with it, cherish it…something new captures your attention, store it, sell it. set it free to a new beholder.
Many of these items have been in storage, and simply won’t make the cut in the house, primarily due to size. I’ve started the process via collaborative consumption and ebay. sorry to the good folks at Objectified for hacking their nice poster.
It seems like a good move. Sometimes all that stuff can drag you down, and your place really needs a well edited thoughtful selection in order to make the space functional and still open.
It’s crazy because some of those things you have in storage are INCREDIBLE. I would be sad to part with them…but somehow always feel better later, like a tumor has been removed.
Just watched Objectified with my sister on Saturday. So good!
