Survey #236 Full Response from Jetta

← Go back

December 6, 2024

PronounsShe/her
Describe a collection or category of items in your home that you’re worried might have crossed over into “too many” or “too much.”I used to have an excessive number of shot glasses and unicorn items, but decluttered them several years ago. All I have now are three shot glasses, one unicorn figurine, and one small box with a unicorn painting on the lid. It was a relief to let them go.
For the category or collection described above, what factor(s) contribute to your assessment of the stash as excessive?The shelves they were on were too crowded, never dusted them, couldn't enjoy what I had because there were too many.
For the category or collection described previously, what would you consider a reasonable limit? Your answer may take the form of a precise number, a volume of space, a budget, a time commitment, or any other metric that makes sense to you. Optional: Explain how you arrived at this answer.I decided to only keep what was really special or I liked or I used. It was the shot glasses with my favorite baseball team, my college alma mater, and the one from my grandfather's house. I kept the one unicorn figurine I thought was the prettiest and then unicorn box my dad gave me that is a place I keep a few sentimental jewelry pieces.
Describe something that you keep in your space because it reminds you of a better time in your life or a fond memory, even though you might otherwise consider it unnecessary or excessive.As someone who tries to be intentional with what I have in my home, I'm not sure that I have anything that I consider unnecessary or excessive. If it's something that brings me fond memories that I don't consider that unnecessary.
