New Year 2008: Simple Order


My New Year's goals for my home are about simplicity and order.

We are downsizing out home, and planning to move into a two-bedroom cottage not far from our current location.

Since the house is smaller (by about 1/3) it will hold less stuff. Less stuff is good, as long as I can de-clutter effectively and rid ourselves of the things we really don't need.

I would love our new home to be an oasis of simplicity and order. Here are my goals for 2008:

1. Design a simple, attractive decor in the new home.

2. Keep only what is truly beautiful or truly useful.

3. Find a place for everything, and put everything in its place.

4. Rid ourselves of all unnecessary clutter.

Here's to a beautiful, clutter-free 2008!
