[quote=Anonymous]OP, I hear you and am in the same boat. One suggestion is to get your family to reduce their objects by just 10% at a time. 10% doesn't seem too scary! So if they have a horse collection that they truly love, try to get them to winnow just one pony from the herd. This will help your family learn to get rid of stuff and that the process doesn't have to be devastating. Help them see the benefits of getting rid of stuff. DH loves all his 7 coats, OK. But one must be less useful than the other six, and by having one fewer coat you will have more space to hang them. For three dimensional artwork, get a display case that hangs on the wall. Child can put current work there. When it is full it is full. if child brings home new work, something from display case needs to go into storage. Implement that 10% (work your way up to 25%) rule here too.[/quote]
