More than just the funnies.

Sometimes You Just Gotta Make Room for More Stuff

A cartoon about how to change clutter into a collection!

 

woman who has it all - great job, wife, mother - has clutter problem

today's woman has it all - job, family, money - and also a fabulous collection of depression era salt and pepper shakers

Even if your life is already full, with a great career and family, you might be missing a little something.

You call it clutter. We call it being a savvy, smart buyer at yard sales, flea markets, and on ebay, with a fabulous collection of something or other that keeps on growing, and growing. In this cartoon, it's depression collectibles: old shakers. (Depression collectibles were produced during the depression, and don't make you depressed, but rather inspire you to be happy!)
