I think my biggest problem is that I'm a collector. And my current vice is art. Unfortunately my apartment is small and two walls are glass so there isn't much available wall space for hanging my rapidly growing collection. For a while, I decided I should stop buying paintings and started to amass sculpture instead (given how much more floor space there is compared to wall space). This is not really a long term solution though since I still want to be able to walk around, and actually live in, my apartment.
So...what to do? I asked this of several people yesterday (and am open to further suggestions). One person said I should buy a bigger house. Another said I could rotate what I actually hang on the walls (and lean all the rests against each other on the floor somewhere in the apartment). I also have been considering this as a last resort:

Loaning out my pictures...now that's an idea. A friend with a bicycle obsession does just that...he buys them and then lends them to his friends.
I think rotating pictures is what mot collectors do, you could put those not hanging in storage somewhere??
EK...another good idea. nathan actually has some of his stuff in a storage facility so potentially I could add my stuff to his.
