Accidental Collections: The Stashes We Collect Without Meaning To - The Clutter Fairy Weekly #312

from The Clutter Fairy Weekly · host Gayle Goddard and Ed Gumnick

When we say “collection,” we usually mean a deliberate accumulation of items in a specific category: postcards, stamps, dolls, and so on. But sometimes we end up with a collection completely by accident, such as 50 pairs of shoes we don’t wear, a cabinet full of coffee mugs, or enough gift-wrap to cover Manhattan. In episode #312 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, identifies common sources of accidental collections and suggests strategies for getting them under control.Show notes: https://cfhou.com/tcfw312The Clutter Fairy Weekly is a live webcast and podcast designed to help you clear your clutter and make space in your home and your life for more of what you love.
