Downsizing your home with style : living well in a smaller space
(Book)

Includes index.

No matter your reason for downsizing--whether you are trading the larger family home for a smaller, more manageable one, or perhaps just looking to simplify life--the transition can be a challenge. When you're moving a lifetime's accumulation of belongings, the task can seem overwhelming--and so can your emotions. How do you decide what to pack and what to part with? Where will you put the contents of your attic, basement, and/or garage? How can you use the stuff you've got so that it functions well and looks right? This book answers these questions and more. New York decorator Ward is an expert in making small spaces both elegant and functional. From the initial evaluation to one year after you have settled in, she takes you through every step with detailed tips and tricks.--From publisher description.
