You might end up decluttering too much and then having to buy things again. It’s not a contest about who has the least amount of stuff.
#Mini malist aesthetic full
If you love books and read them all, you can have a bookshelf full of them, for example. Yet, you don’t need to get rid of everything to become a minimalist. I might be exaggerating a bit, but you know exactly what I am talking about.įirst of all, it’s great to declutter. If you google minimalism, you will stumble across a bunch of white, almost empty apartments or rooms with a slick looking table, matching chair, maybe a plant on top of the table, little to no decoration and a bed with white sheets in the corner and three black T-shirts in the wardrobe. The concept of minimalism is to reduce your material possessions and only keep the items that bring you joy, are meaningful or useful to you. The need for nice aesthetics might end up costing you more than what you bargained for.
The trap many people who try out minimalism or zero-waste living encounter (me included) is that they want it all to look amazing and to go well together. While that is not a bad thing, it’s also not necessarily the purpose of the whole movement. It all looks so clean, put together, and instagram-perfect. During that time, I have been following a bunch of Instagram accounts and realizing that there is dangerous aesthetics when it comes to both zero-waste living and a minimalist lifestyle. I have been trying to live more minimalist/ zero-waste for almost two years now and I love it.
