Clutter sucks. It gets in the way, it clouds our physical space and emotional space, and seems to always get in the way just when we need to accomplish something most. I know we’ve all been there, you’re late for work, you’re running around the house trying to grab everything you need before heading out […]

Christmas is fast approaching and with it, the promise of more stuff. More presents, more decorations, more hostess gifts, more of everything!

I like to think of myself as a minimalist. I don’t typically keep things that aren’t useful to me, and I don’t need much to get by. I’ve never been the kind of girl that buys 18 million different kinds of lotion or has an overflowing make up bag, and even though I have […]

Today’s post is from my staff writer Jordann. I’m still loving her posts and she writes every Friday for me. I’ll let her take it away now! I’m in debt. I have student loans up to my eyeballs and a car loan. I hate my debt, and I’ve been working hard for the past twelve […]

I wasn’t always a minimalist or interested in becoming a minimalist. I used to love collecting things.
