Closet Art — Midlife Minimalist™

For years now, we’ve been using a concept we call closet art. We like change and it doesn't take long for us to feel that our home has that same old, same old feeling. We decided to create a systematic and inexpensive way to modify our décor without adding to our inventory of things.

To simplify our home and to purchase less, we began utilizing what we call closet art. We use our closets as a place to store wall hangings so that we can rotate wall art from our home to our closet, keeping a fresh look and reducing the desire to buy new things for the walls of our home.

The concept is simple, and it is easy to incorporate. Find space in your closet, behind the clothes or door, or above the shelf. Any place that creates space to hang a piece of wall art. When you feel inclined, move them around. Replace a photo or poster in the bedroom with one from the closet. Move art from room to room. Get those creative ideas flowing and you’ll have the sense of new without the cost and clutter of new. It’s another simple way to increase the peace.

Here are some of the benefits we’ve experienced:
