Feng Shui and the Yellow Elephant

What a great weekend before school starts.  We went to ChuckeCheese instead of WetnWild and then spent some time in the HUGE Barnes and Noble and my daughter had a blast playing with the stuffed horses, she's going on 8 mind you, and reading and I loved picking through potential books for inspiration.  

I grabbed a Feng Shui book that was really interesting, kinda kicking myself that I didn't buy it - but in the few minutes I read it I learned a lot about clutter and space.  And I HAVE A LOT OF IT, well clutter that is.  We have minimal space.  So you can just imagine what our living arrangements are like.  We have gotten rid of a lot of clutter, but because I am CRAP at organising a lot of it just gets piled around.


But as I was going through my pile I looked and noticed I really didn't have MUCH inspiration.  Until I looked at the children's poem area and saw a colorful book called The Yellow Elephant.  It was visually fantastic, I didn't buy it either because I want to check it out from the Library instead.  And I want to stop adding to my clutter.

So, are you fung shui?  Do you care about your wealth space versus your calm space?  Are you a clutter bug or do you HAVE to have things in their place?
