Too much at my house, makes me feel like I can't breathe.

I've noticed that I can look at something here at home, then see it in a photo and say to myself what were you thinking when you did that.

 

It sometimes looks like my inner crazy lady did it!

Ha! Ha!

 

I think I have a couple of those 'inner crazy ladies' living inside me!

Re: Knowing when to stop

[ Edited ]

I recently posted about the importance of "editing" our home decor and I believe it relates to how we decorate for the holidays.  

 

As we become more established (a gentle way of saying older 😊) we often have more disposable income to spend which translates to the ability to purchase more and more and more.  Sometimes, however, a home can have a dizzying effect when it's owner doesn't know when to put the brakes on and chooses to display every holiday item ever owned so there are many different vignettes throughout the house that don't necessarily play well together.  

 

I really admire a home where someone has taken the time and money to transform their spaces to a winter wonderland.  Admittedly, I am all about less is more, have strategically purchased and placed decor just where I want it and truthfully am too lazy to do a redoux for a few short weeks.
