Do you ever look around your house only to discover that it doesn’t look as appealing as you envisioned it would? You might have unintentionally put cute on top of your clutter. Kathi is here today with her friend and decorating diva Deanna Day Young. Together they are transparently sharing how they have struggled with contributing to clutter through well intended decorating gone wrong. Don’t worry though, Kathi and Deanna won’t leave us in our “cute, but not cute” clutter. Listen in to this candid conversation as they help us learn how to remedy five decorating mistakes they know from experience lead to more clutter:
- Too many Cute containers
- Buying something before you know where you will put it
- Form over function
- Adding cute before decluttering
- Not sticking to your style

The Clutter Free Home: Making Room for Your Life
When it comes to your home, peace is possible…
Longing for a place of peace from which you can love others well? The Clutter-Free Home is your room-by-room guide to decluttering, reclaiming, and celebrating every space of your home.
Let author Kathi Lipp (who once lived a life buried in clutter) walk you through each room of your house to create organizational zones that are not only functional and practical but create places of peace that reflect your personality. Kathi will help you tackle the four-step process of dedicate, decide, declutter and “do-your-thing” to reveal the home you’ve always dreamed of, and then transform it into a haven that reflects who you truly are meant to be.
