You know what they say - out of sight, out of mind! I made only one trip to reclaim something from the MAYBE suitcase over the next month. I donated, consigned, sold (on Instagram!) the NOs and put the MAYBES in a suitcase in the garage. The rest of it went into simple NO or MAYBE piles.

Double the space + double the kids = quadruple the stuff. įast forward two years, add a second kid to the mix and yup, they were 100 percent right. It’s open and modern, and aside from giving us ample space to work and play, it actually feels pretty minimalist. Two and a half years ago we moved from a modest two bedroom apartment in San Francisco to a big, beautiful house here in Bend. Why I Created a Minimalist Capsule Wardrobe
