Everyone here making comments about her having a lot of stuff and that vs. minimalism. Minimalism isn't about living in a sterile environment... it's a mindset, not a decor. It's about taking away the things that don't serve a purpose or bring joy to your life. For some people, that includes more knick-knacks than for others. It's the getting rid of useless to you items... if they serve a purpose, they stay! She has filled her space with the things that bring her joy, like her items on the window sill and the artwork, combined with things she definitely wanted, like her rug and the shoe rack in the door. She's doing it right.

We are used to tiny houses that are fairly bare inside. Her fireplace added charm. The coffee bar was so European. The washer/dryer in the bathroom hidden behind the curtain was smart. I liked it. My style is different but this was certainly a cozy home for Teri. Her outdoor deck allows for guests and entertaining. Thanks for sharing.

No matter how cluttered her home may be, she DID downsize from what she previously had. Furthermore, it's HER home. There are no strict rules about how tiny homes are decorated. This is her personal space, which she paid for, and she can live however she wants.

Your taste is really lovely. I am just finding all of the knickknacks a bit busy. I might cull those down, perhaps rotate them. Love the ceiling, it adds so much warmth. The glass panel, lovem love love! One of the things that could help is a digital photo frame. That way you can have a lot of photos, not so much dusting. Your location is really peaceful. The color blue is amazing and just you. You have an amazing sense of style. The prints, the crosses, the print of the door photos. Love! Love some of your storage solutions like you closet.

@@jodysawatzky1204 Well, you can argue she should have downsized more for the size home she moved into but if she had actually kept all her stuff from the previous home then no one would even be able to get in the front door without running into something. So she did downsize... Downsizing is just relative, and depends on both how much stuff you eliminate as well as how much smaller a space you will put what remains. You can basically get rid of over half your stuff but it can still look cluttered if you move into a space that's less than half the size you kept your stuff in before... Besides, downsizing doesn't always mean the same thing to everyone... It's just something to consider that not everyone should try to live in the same size home as people won't all downsize to the same amount. Since, people just won't all have the same needs, priorities, and what they do and don't care about keeping... Whether it's the amount of stuff, the number of people, etc. it should be about finding what's appropriate and not trying to fit into some proprietary standard that will only work for certain people in certain situations and ignores everyone else...
