William Morris once said: ‘Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.’ One of his most famous quotes and one I’m taking quite literally in 2026, as I plan to declutter my home according to this principle.
While there are so many brilliant decluttering methods to choose from, I have always found that this William Morris quote resonates with me and how I want my home to look and feel. It’s no secret that the Ideal Home team are a huge fan of the iconic Arts and Crafts designer, and now I want to take it a step further, by keeping my home according to this principle.
