Minimalist Money

13 posts

Welcome to the Minimalist Money category at Tidymalism. Curious about living more intentionally and assessing your spending habits? Or maybe you’re just looking for some information on how to do a low-buy year and curb your consumer urges. After all, a lot of the things we spend our hard-earned money on eventually drag us down. We have to clean it all, mend it, maintain it. Or it just gets in the way, always making us feel as if we should be decluttering.

You’ll find lots of minimalist money tips in this section, and less dogmatism. Tidymalism focuses on finding a realistic middle ground in between minimalism and maximalism. On living lighter, with less stuff, while still enjoying your stuff.

Minimal monthlies with bonus content, woot.

Sun, snow, rain: we’ve had it all this past month.
Are you in hibernation mode yet? I sure am!
Recently re-staked my 20-year old flatmate, Henrietta, who had reached absurdly monstrous proportions and was slowly, but with unequivocal confidence, striving for territorial control of the dining area 😳 Swipe for the before situation. I told you.
I never really show you my dressing room because I’m an absolute nut case when it comes to clothing and accessories. It’s definitely my biggest clutter challenge. This is one part of the closet unit and probably the tidiest section as it only holds blouses and handbags. I keep post-its on the inside of the door indicating which bags are where on each shelf, lest I tend to forget the ones in the back. They’re kept in their dustbags anyway, so you can’t really find them at a glance.

Afternoon slump, #iictextures edition.
Heavy rotation #iichanging in the entryway. I’m a jacket and coat fanatic and always keep three or so high-street jackets of the same colour here, and switch them out seasonally. These are usually the ones I’ll quickly don to run errands around the neighbourhood. They camouflage the electrical unit built into this wall, which would otherwise be the worser eyesore. Open coatracks tend to look sloppy so keeping the curated selection of jackets monochromatic makes this solution less offensive to the eye.
Autumn colours coming in nicely. Tidying up this side of the terrace today whilst tanking some vitamin D. Enjoy your Sunday!
Amazing how much the foliage outside has changed in the past 14 days.
Fave #iicplacetosit and read 😊
Probably my most colourful little corner what with the songbirds, bright accessories, and original lithograph from Greek artist Michalis Arfaras. I keep jumpers inside this unit and frequently worn jewellery on top, in easy reach.
Colourful #interiordetails for the #instagraminteriorchallenge, kind of a crossover between #iiccolourful and #iicceramic 😁 I got the snail incense holder once on a biz trip to #vilnius — #lithuanianceramics are so beautiful (and so are Lithuanians, btw). The red container is another of my eBay #pantonera #vintage finds from probably two decades ago. I keep glue sticks and rubber stamp pads in it. And there’s a wee wee wee bit of my zine library on this here shelf.
