Bags comes in many shapes and sizes: plastic bags, paper bags, sports bags, school bags, bag-for-lifes, suitcases, gift bags, handbags, totes, bin bags. Although if you are male, you may just have a man bag. Or a pocket.
Generally more bags come into a house than leave it. We keep a bag of boutique-y paper bags so that we can package stuff which we are lending or returning. But let’s be honest – that don’t happen very often. What does this mean? Everybody – "clutter". Our best advice - recycle 90% of your bag of bags.

Bags often HOLD clutter – the present you didn’t quite give someone? Last Saturday night’s lipstick and receipts? The knocker you plan to return, somehow sharing a bag with some confetti? Bagged clutter is stagnant clutter. Unbagged clutter is active.
And bags HIDE clutter. They are bulky. Just think of the measurements. A stray bag usually measures at least 1.5ft x 1ft. Remove your bag of bags from the wardrobe and what do you find. A half bottle of champagne and the black top which you are missing.
The only bags you need are a clutch, a tote and a few plastic bags. There will be more convincing in the New Year.

Meanwhile, Merry Christmas to my readers and a top 2015.
