Sopm years ago, my wife and I went on an extended vacation for 6 weeks. During that time, I hired a fellow to remove the cottage cheese from the ceilings. As a result, before leaving we removed every single item from all of the walls in the entire house except the one room where we stashed everything. When we came home, we did significant redecorating and repainting of every wall in the house.

My wife liked the look so much that we currently (some years later) only have a very few items displayed anywhere on any of the walls on the house.

She has found that she much prefers the very clean, and uncluttered look that essentially bare walls give her.

If she is happy, so am I.
