Clutter Your World with Everything!



Hi everyone! Wow, what a week it has been and it's only Wednesday! On Monday morning, when I came into Clutter and saw some empty spaces ( due to great sales in December and early January) and no e-mails of furniture, I had a moment of panic! I knew I was going to see a storage unit that morning, but I had no idea what would be in it and I kept thinking, how are we going to sell things if we don't have things!! Well, I didn't have to worry at all! The storage unit was full of wonderful furniture and home decor and thanks to the recommendation of Sheryl Hadley, founder of Organization and Relocation ( a professional organization service),www.organizationandrelocation.com, the consignor chose Clutter to sell her beautiful furniture! In addition to the storage unit and new consignor, I sent out an e-mail to all 541 ( and growing) of our consignors for consignment items and boy, did they rally! Empty on Monday and full by Wednesday, I couldn't ask for more!

Here is some of the wonderful furniture we currently have in the store....

P.S. Also on Monday, I received a call from Downtown Boulder, Inc. inviting me and my staff to the annual Awards luncheon because we are receiving an award! What award? Well, the Rising Star award and I couldn't be happier! So stay tuned for a report on the luncheon and come on down to Clutter to see the Rising Star ( the store of course!) for yourself....

Clutter Your World....with New Year's Resolutions!

Hi Everyone! Well...the Christmas clutter is finally being put away, the checkbook is balanced, the dogs are fed and it's now time to think about New Years Resolutions! Just so you know, I NEVER make a New Year's Resolution but I think they are good to make, in some cases. One New Year's Resolution that I think is good to make is one for your health. We live in the best little town in the world and we have so much just outside our front door to help us lead healthy lives. We can hop on a bike and pick up a bike path anywhere in the city.....we can drive to a hiking trailhead and hike in all around the foothills ( Sanitas, Chautauqua, Wonderland Lake, Dowdy Draw, just to name a few), and we can put on some running shoes and open our front door and fly like an eagle!

Speaking of running....I am in a great little running group with a fabulous coach...Gabino Toledo. Gabino has been a runner all of his life and competed in many marathons before being forced to "retire" due to a heart valve complication, which he had surgery for last year. I have been running with Gabino for almost 5 years now and I started as a novice...swearing that I could never be a runner...and I had every excuse in the world! I didn't want my knees to hurt ( I have never had hurt knees in my life!), I didn't have the time , I couldn't run on a full stomach...I couldn't run on an empty stomach, I had to be home for the kids. But one day, I stepped on the scale and noticed a few extra pounds...and I was heading towards my 50's and I knew that my metabolism would be slowing down and that I could start putting on weight if I didn't do something. Furthermore, I wasn't doing any kind of cardio excercise and I knew that to stay healthy, I needed to do something to get my heart rate up. I also LOVE to eat and I figured that if I started running, I could stop worrying about that scoop of ice cream that I wanted to have at night. A friend of mine had been trying to get me to join her small running group for a year and finally, I decided to go try it out. That was 5 years ago and I have been running ever since...I even ran my first marathon last October and plan to do another.

So, if you want to make a New Year's Resolution to get healthy ( forget about losing weight, just say you want to be healthy), then e-mail me at patriciafross@gmail.com and I will tell you about my running group. We range in age from 30-65, we have fast runners and slower runners and novice runners and experienced runners. We don't just go out and run around...we do distance runs, short runs, track workouts, hill workouts, timed workouts and if you want to, we run races. We just ran the Lafayette Oatmeal race and had a great time! We run in cold weather and warm weather, we don't run in rain or bitter cold. We also do some fun social things....I have a Bolder Boulder party every year and a Running of the Lights party at Christmas to run and see the Christmas lights in my neighborhood and the surrounding neighborhoods. Some of us ( like me!), can even be talked into breakfast after our long Saturday runs. We run Mondays and Wednesdays from 4:30-6:00 and Saturdays at 8 AM...you won't believe how great you feel on Saturday after you've done your morning run! We do pay Gabino $65/month for his coaching but the first month is free. You can check out Toledo Runners at Gabino's website:www.toledorunners.com.

So, make your New Year's Resolution to get healthy and why don't you try running! In the meantime...Run on down to Clutter and Clutter Your World...we have some fabulous furniture and home decor in the store right now!!

Clutter your Home for the Holidays!

Happy Holidays everyone! We have been busy little elves this holiday season and judging from all of the wonderful things we have received into the store, you have been too! I think everyone is clearing out their closets, drawers and shelves getting ready for that company that is coming for the Holidays!

If you need a dining table to accommodate Great Aunt Shirley, Uncle Hal, Grandma, Grandpa, cousin Bob, little Cindy Lou Who and Santa Claus, then we have just the table! Check out the pictures below...

Or how about getting that guest room ready for your mother-in-law...we have some fabulous armoires and dressers to take care of all of the clothes she's bringing as she moves in for the next month!

We have the perfect sectional for that TV room that you just finished downstairs...snuggle in to the down wrapped cushions and settle in to watch "White Christmas" ( MY favorite holiday movie!)

Whatever you are doing and whoever you have visiting, all of us at Clutter want to wish you a very Happy Holiday season....and when you are looking for something to do with the relatives that refuse to leave, bring them on down to Clutter and let us do the entertaining for you!

Happy Holidays! All of us at Clutter!

One of those days to sleep in!


Hi everyone...well, I woke up this morning to cold, icy rain....a perfect morning to hit the snooze button on your alarm clock and catch a few more winks! When you do wake up, after you come to CLUTTER to see what new things we have, I think it's time to go back to your warm cozy home, light the fire, and nest.

We have the perfect furniture to aid in your nesting....take a look!

Come on in...Clutter is full!

It's the night before I leave to run a marathon and I have so many things "cluttering" my mind! I'm looking forward to this trip. It's my first marathon and believe it or not, I'm excited to run and experience it. The marathon is in Victoria, BC and it's not only at sea level, but it's supposed to be a beautiful run. I'll be running but I will also be on the lookout for something that can Clutter your World...so stay tuned!

One of the things cluttering my mind is Clutter....I just love my store! The women I work with are so wonderful, the consignors are great and we love our customers. I was in the store today, taking pictures so I could post them before I leave. The store is so full right now with lots of incredible furniture and home decor. You'll see the pictures below...I hope you visit soon.

Oh...before I forget...check out our new advertising at www.metroseen.com. I think you'll like what you see! Also, call us with any questions....303.386.3423.
