With every trip to Goodwill or listing on Craigslist I wonder "where did all this stuff come from?". My husband and I haveidentified some of our patterns of behavior that lead to "infiltration" and we are now actively avoiding them. But I had to laugh when I saw today's post on Simpler Living (another one of my fave blogs) called "20 Ways To Create Clutter".  We are guilty of quite a few I had never even thought of.  Here are a few of my favorites below.


  • Whenever you stay at a hotel, take the tiny shampoos and soaps home with you. Don’t use them, though.  Hoard them in your bathroom for the coming zombie apocalypse.
  • Value quantity over quality.
  • Buy sale items because they are such an amazing deal, regardless of whether you actually need them.
