Security patterns

These are security patterns from old envelopes given to me by Kathy Renwald. Aren't they lovely?


Paper is the bane of my existence. Like mother, like daughter. My parents ran a company and mom was the financial guru, which meant that the office desk was papered with receipts. When I was young, I didn't appreciate the paper clutter, but unfortunately now I am in the same boat. Receipts aren't my issue but lists, magazines, books, articles, meeting minutes, designs in progress, etc. are. Oh, I also collect ephemera for collage, like security patterns from envelopes, and that is a whole other "situation." 


Is paper a clutter challenge for you? How do you deal with it?
