Less is More??


I have never been a Less is More person.

I have  never been comfortable in a "neat as a pin" creative environment.

 Although I like the words "neat as a pin".

But as I have spent more years in this world, I have gathered  more "stuff" in my life. 
And I now feel the need for peace and order.

And so, I am looking at the words of William Morris through new eyes.

I love beautiful.

I love beautiful even more when it is useful.

Jeannie...I am in agreement with you. I too have to look at my 'beautiful' and useful stuff..and hope that it is loved later. Also trying to unstuff my life as much is no longer useful [to me]. Different days...Different eyes...I do believe we see with more understanding and wisdom [I hope]. LOVE your beautiful things!! Karin Eveland
