I have major hauling out and cleaning to do before I can re-arrange anything.  At this point, I can't even see my loveseat or chair! LOL

Sounds like a good plan for when I can though.........

Just think, for me it will be like having new furniture, cause I haven't seen it in so long, I don't even remember the pattern on it!

LOL at Grammybear! 

My spare bedroom has a daybed in it.  I don't remember if it has blankets and sheets on it or not as it has been "out of sight" for so long!

On one of those many decorating shows that are on cable TV these days, I think it's called Freestyle Design, they take things from other rooms and sometimes take things OUT of the room, and rearrange everything, and Voila! it's a brand new, fabulous room. I also remember something for a decluttering workshop I took in which the workshop leader advised us to "shop at home," as in look around to see what you already have before you buy something. Another interesting tip she shared was "the invisible box." This has to do with getting over feeling like you have to fill every square inch of a cupboard, or shelf, or other storage area. You imagine an "invisible box" where you might otherwise have crammed yet another item. You also bring to mind something I've noticed over and over on "Clean House" and "Clean Sweep" -- people cling to all these objects -- from salt shakers to their wedding dress -- because they supposedly hold so much meaning and value to the person holding onto them --- BUT they almost always are on the bottom of a closet, or you cannot see them because there's so much other crap on the shelf, or in the room, or wherever. They do not have a "place of honor." So, another good reason to get rid of extraneous junk is so that you can LOVE and SEE and APPRECIATE and SHARE a few items that really do mean something to you. -- Brenda
