Remember it’s only clutter if it’s not wanted, not displayed, not used and brings negative energy to your life.
I’ve often wondered if a minimalist person loves a sandy desert more than a lush green tropical rain forest?
The point is that you can have a room full of prized mementos that can be well displayed and loved; that’s not clutter. I’ve seen many rooms like this (including museum rooms) and the energy level is electric – it’s like walking through a rain forest. Every item has meaning and energy.
