I love this cantaloupe idea! A great perimeter to use as I attempt to part with my collections and "piles". Thank you!!๐Ÿ’•

Brilliant! Thank you!

At one time I had a small bunch of decorative items which almost all had a story and/ or were from my grandmother and mother. But even grouped together, they looked lost.

Until my clever and thoughtful daughters surprised me while I was gone one week by redecorating a half bath (powder room) in a Victorian style complete with cabbage rose wallpaper. The pictures of Pinkie and Blue Boy, the wall cabinet housing a collection of mini perfume bottles, dancing ladies, a singing bird, a miniature fancy shoe, etc., a Rococo style gold framed mirror had all found a home perfectly suited for them where they were given the space that suited them!

Do the ceramic houses you get on KLM flights when you fly business class count as clutter? ๐Ÿ˜€

Objects smaller than a melon are not automatically bad, I guess they just need a spotlight instead of being left to wander.
