I love the idea of simplifying, and creating peaceful space. But does anyone have any tips/examples/sites for doing this when you live in the real world with a family and kids?
I like a lot of the Ryland, Peters and Small decorating books. The only thing I don't like is that they will often re-use many of the same photos/homes across many different books.
