A perfectly kept house is the sign of a misspent life, is one of my all-time-favorite books. It's a collection of essays and photographs by Mary Randolph Carter on how to live creatively with collections, clutter work, kids, pets, art, etc.
One of my favorite lines from the book, along with the title, is "don't scrub the soul out of your home." My sentiments exactly...
Mary Randolph Carter, or "Carter" as she is known by family and friends, is an author, photographer, and longtime creative director for Ralph Lauren. She is also a self-professed "junker, " and has written several books about collecting and living with junk/treasures.
