In minimalism, stash vs
hoard is hotly debated. To hard core
minimalist any sort of ‘extra’ is an abomination. Yeah, whatever. Methinks someone people need to minimalize
their rules for other people…
In my opinion, a hoard is
having excess of what you need and/or keeping everything because you can’t
bring yourself to discard. Hoarding
affects everyday life.
A stash is a collection
made to have materials on hand for a future project. Mind you, a stash CAN become a hoard if you’re
not careful.
A few of my creative
stashes crossed the line into a hoard.
Not good. Those have been the
hardest to deal with. What I did to deal
with it was to allow myself ONE reasonable size storage container (ie I can
easily lift it when full) for holding the stash. Then I did a KonMari.
It worked…
