What we Need

Moving last year has really made me take a look at what we need and what we want.  We all hold on to things for reasons that we cannot explain, but they are sentimental.  I am trying to take a deeper look into what I need and why I need it.
One of the things that I have held onto for almost 11 years was the bouquet that I made for our wedding rehearsal from the bows and ribbons that were on gifts at my shower.  It is a huge piece of old wrapping but to me it was important.  Today I took some pictures of it and am sending it to the recycle yard.  I have pictures of it and I will always have the memories from it.  It was fun to make and definitely served its purpose.
I want to declutter my house and my life and this was a HUGE step for me.
