Survey #236 Full Response from Janice
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Describe a collection or category of items in your home that you’re worried might have crossed over into “too many” or “too much.” | Makeup and skincare |
| For the category or collection described above, what factor(s) contribute to your assessment of the stash as excessive? | I cover an entire double vanity ( while using clear acrylic stackable containers to organize, and still have loads more. Plus backups in my closet. It's organized, I periodically declutter, but I bring in more. |
| For the category or collection described previously, what would you consider a reasonable limit? Your answer may take the form of a precise number, a volume of space, a budget, a time commitment, or any other metric that makes sense to you. Optional: Explain how you arrived at this answer. | Only using the vanity (with less stacking), and just a file box or two of backups in the closet. |
| Describe something that you keep in your space because it reminds you of a better time in your life or a fond memory, even though you might otherwise consider it unnecessary or excessive. | Vases and objets I've picked up on travel, or been given by friends I once had. |
| Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode. | I've made myself so blind to the clutter! I'm working on things slowly, but it doesn't feel as urgent as it probably should because my eyes just skate over the bad parts. What to do? |
| Future topics | How to overcome decision fatigue. As in : do I sell it, donate it, etc. |
