I had an enormous (rather expensive ) closed storage cupboard built in my hallway for coats and shoes.. no one uses it. Me included. I'm regretting not opting for cheap baskets and hooks. Rethinking the use of the cupboard and placing the said hooks and baskets where the piles usually end up mounting 🙌🏼

Oh, we’ve seen (and done) this one. Sometimes we build something and it just doesn’t match the way we actually live, and we end up wondering what to do with it. Hopefully the cupboard finds its real job. Last week someone in our community repurposed their linen closet for vacuums and brooms because that’s what they actually reached for in that spot.

The container concept is great. It encompasses so much and is sometimes so subtle. My handbag is a container, too much stuff and I need to empty it out. I'm starting to see containers everywhere. Can my body be a container too, a container for life, for joy, for food? Too much overconsumption (eating) and my container starts overflowing. I think we should respect our containers, not just our bodies. Keep your containers organised and clean, don't fill them with junk.

Love this! The handbag, the body, everything has a container and most of them are telling us something. 🙌
