Flow

A charming checklist for decluttering. In this whimsical yet practical guide to sorting through the too-much-stuff of modern life, the premise is simple: on each page, a delightful illustration of items that fill our lives-novelty ice cube trays, a manual typewriter, game pieces, that souvenir snow globe. And beneath each drawing, two little checkboxes: Yes and No. Look at the object. Note your response. Act accordingly! Additionally, the book is filled with dozens of tips and ideas for what to do with things that may be hard to part with, like children's artwork. An inspiring gift!   The charm of Flow's Tiny Pleasures meets the trendy practicality of Marie Kondo in a small, illustrated impulse book that serves as a decluttering inspiration and guide, asking the question "Do you really need....?" about all kinds of items you have in your home, from chipped dishes to old nail polish, defunct chargers to family photos, outgrown clothes and old toys.

Created by the editors of Flow magazine, The Tiny Book of Tiny Pleasures is a celebration of slowing down and appreciating the simple moments of life-all you have to do is take notice.   Irene Smit is the cofounder and creative director of Flow magazine, a popular international publication packed with paper goodies and beautiful illustrations that celebrates creativity, imperfection, and life's little pleasures.
