I was given a book not so long ago by Louise my sister in law.  She was of two minds whether to give it to me, The book by Karen Kingston is titled ‘ Clear Your Clutter ‘   Of course!! I can see why she had reservations as I do not have too much of a sentimental attachment to many things,  my lifestyle & business I try and keep fairly organized. 

A life changing book

Never the less, this book got me itching to really cull…..!!!  I  registered on the web site www.freecycle.org and posted “offers” of picture frames and large box of sample greetings cards which I no longer needed. Various charities including the local hospice responded and my clutter was looked on as treasure & perfect for raising funds… Fantastic!!! I gained back valuable space in a corner of my studio - I am now on a ‘ de clutter ‘ mission. So thank you Louise I love this book!!

I hope on another occasion to write about my studio.  It was designed and built in the garden of our cottage situated in a village in the UK. I had a wish list for my working environment and space & light were important factors.  So keeping the studio clear of clutter is a priority.  They do say that clearing areas in your environment clears the air for moving forward - so watch this space….
