Do you have a bunch of show ribbons on display? I did, but they all had to come down when I recently painted my studio. I probably had about 25 displayed and another 25 in a box waiting to be added to the wall.

My husband asked if I intended to put them back up. Of course I did! He reminded me that many of them were quite old and gently asked why they were still important to me. Well, gee. The only answer I could think of was “To feed my ego,” and that seemed rather lame. He commented that my studio had always had too much stuff on the walls for his liking. Hmm, that got me thinking. I DO like a more minimalist look in the rest of my home. Why should the studio be any different? Would I like it better with fewer things on the wall?
Eventually, I decided that yes, I would. And this is what happened.
What camp are you in? Do you like LOTS of things on your studio walls or do you like them more streamlined?
I’m still adjusting to the latter and am adding things back slowly. That editing is hard!
