Yummy Clutter










Normally I hatehatehate clutter. My apartment verges on museum-like in its spareness (exactly three knick nacks! that match exactly two throw pillows!) But Imke Klee's beautifully curated, color-coded clutter? Now, even the Virgo in me can get into that!

How do you feel about clutter? Can you handle it?

I have the same minimalist approach to decorating- unless I use it, I don't need it.b

I wish I was a minimalist. I have so much junk! I just moved into a new apartment and my stuff is everywhere.

I hate clutter, but love knick nacks. Clutter makes me feel claustrophobic, but knick nacks feel like little memories scattered around the room.

I also abhor clutter. I try to keep most of our flat surfaces completely clear, but work stress and general tiredness has led to an accumulation of mail, cookbooks, receipts, and other bits of junk in our dining and living rooms.

It doesn't bother me at first, then gradually drives me crazy. I'll likely go on a cleaning frenzy this weekend just to be able to breathe again!

I just love knick knack stores, it's inevitable that I'll live an ongoing battle with clutter. But, I think a little clutter makes a house a home ;P

these are awesome and so perfectly organized, ironically so

Can't handle clutter either. I own exactly NO knick-knacks, like to keep everything organized and in its place, and a lot of times if I don't have a place for something, it gets thrown away... Hate clutter.

What a great idea! I'm going to find myself a shabby cabinet with loads of drawers, paint each one a different colour, and then throw all my clutter into the appropriate drawers!

Color coded or not, I love clutter! I love this collection of pics. Great find.
