Now I can say this to you but I can’t actually do that myself, I keep everything! Hooray on the new couch and the nook sounds like a great idea too. Love the new toy chest!

I struggle with the decluttering at times too, but then I remind myself that my stuff doesn’t pay my mortgage. When I figured out monthly payments on a per square footage basis, that pile of crap in the corner of the den tends to looks less and less sentimental and more and more like a messy house guest who doesn’t pay rent. I also believe that clearing out makes more room for the Universe to bring us new stuff – like couches! – G

The toy chest is also awesome. Very nice, and something you could definitely keep around even after you don’t have a need to conceal toys (or you could save those few special toys that you will keep for eventual grandchildren-but you have many many years before you have to worry about that!)

It is easy to de-clutter things when you realize they are just stuff; they might hold nice memories and are sentimental, but in the end they are just stuff. Maybe because of my frequent moves, but I hold less sentimentality for stuff these days and like to keep it as de-cluttered as I can, but then I’m married to a packrat…..

I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

Your house gets a great cleanup. Once, on baby no. 3, I tidied up so good that when I got home from the hospital, I couldn’t find the baby’s clothes which I had carefully put away. Oh, I found them eventually, but still! Make sure that doesn’t happen to you!

The truth is I really wanted the bag, but I needed the toy chest more. When I read your original comment, I thought you were a bit of a mind reader.

My child has one in the living room that is a re-purposed storage bin from Target Clearance. It fits my decor and all her “living room” toys. 😉 Light Brite – books and a couple games.

I’m sure he disappears at times. You know he loves playing tag. http://afcsoac.blogspot.com/2010/09/tickle-me-katy.html

I am going through a purging phase myself. The clutter is driving me nuts, but then I’ll go to pick up an object to purge, and I think, “Oh, but what if…?” I’m going to remember your line as I go through my closets.

My heart says the chest because you close the top and never really have to organize, but my mind says bag”. So I knew I should have gone with my heart.

BTW – I post this in honor of your I Comment, Therefore I Am blogs. Since I cut and paste the above from my old comment.
