[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]" Organizational things " only encourage more hoarding.[/quote] I used to think this but now I disagree. Rubbermaid bins are 90% of the time for hoarding. Usually adding shelving units is hoarding. But Elfa for a closet, or drawer dividers, or bins for a pantry are good. They actually make LESS space but they “hold” the home for things that are in use so they get put back properly. Example: I have a shelf for handbags in my closet. I got dividers so that each one has a slot. They look so much neater and when one is out, its slot stays empty. I can’t add any handbags without getting rid of one. If I just had them on the shelf, I could easily justify shoving one more on there. [/quote] I agree too. Maybe it’s intentional storage, or purposeful storage. I added hooks along the entryway. Each kid has a designated place to put their coat. Whenever anyone comes to my house they hang their coat instead of draping it on a chair or couch (precovid.) [/quote]
