My now retired husband of 40 years has started “collecting” travel souvenirs, most of which I hate. As this is his home as well as mine, I try to effectively wrangle some of his stuff, but it seems to be everywhere. Not all of it is FengShui friendly. Pirates–really? If there is a bare spot on the wall, he wants to cover it. I prefer a more clutter free environment. My office has a couple of nice prints on the wall, and he continues to bring home things that he deems just perfect for my office as well. I have tried to be diplomatic, but I am running out of patience and room. What do I do?
