Somebody told me today about the 6-month rule…. Basically, if you’re the kind of person who finds it hard to get rid of stuff, put it in a bag or a box and put in on a shelf somewhere. If you haven’t gone back to that bag or box over a period of 6 months, then donate those items.

I’m the one in our family who doesn’t have a problem getting of stuff – most of the time. I’m pretty good with clearing stuff out the kitchen (like mismatched crockery, glasses, etc). I’m good at ridding rid of clothes that just don’t work or I can’t fix it. I’m also pretty good at clearing out most other things around our home and garden. However, there are a few things I am absolutely no good at getting rid of….. and I make no apology for those things. Read the rest of this entry »

I have linked some of my favourite books and other items that I think you may like in My Amazon Bookstore. I’ll keep updating the store and posting links for books as required in posts, so check back regularly.

You can view my choice of products using the tab above, the link in this post,  the carousel on my blog’s homepage for my current favourites or browse the “My Amazon Bookstore” category.

If you order via my my Amazon Bookstore, you will receive the same excellent level of quality and care that you usually receive from Amazon.

I bought a book in a local bookstore a few days ago. It was called “Practical Feng Shui, Symbols of Good Fortune” by well known author, Lillian Too.

My interest in Feng Shui started many years ago and, for quite a while, my home and garden was Feng Shui friendly. Then one day, I moved home and never quite got to plan and re-decorate according to the Feng Shui principles I had become familiar with.

I bought the book on impulse and have read it from cover to cover already and plan on welcoming Feng Shui back into my home over the coming months.

Since my initial interest, I have come across many differing opinions, but mostly people seem to think that Feng Shui is difficult to understand and difficult to introduce into one’s home.

What do you think about Feng Shui? Is it something to take seriously or can you not imagine a dragon on your East wall nestled amongst your “anything but Chinese decor”?
