According to Miss Minimalist Francine Jay, one of the biggest misconceptions about minimalism is that the décor should be chic, white, concrete, and sterile. But minimalist living has a place in the lives of average people too. Jay’s STREAMLINE method is a great way to declutter your home and maintain a sense of order. STREAMLINE starts with deciding what you are keeping and what you are throwing away. Once you do that, you haved to find appropriate places to store your belongings. The golden rule of STREAMLINE is for every item you bring into the home, you must get rid of one.
