An old poster from wartime England has become a huge hit - the message must resonate with many of us. You can now find this slogan on t-shirts, mugs, tote bags, key rings, and much more.
This can certainly be good advice for those sorting through lots of papers, or other clutter. (But please also take this advice: Pace yourself. Take breaks. Don't try to solve months or years of paper pile-up problems in one marathon session. Keep on - day by day, week by week - and you'll get there!)
What's new in the Keep Calm world? How about this laptop skin, from Schtickers.
And then there's the lip balm.
Of course, anything this popular is bound to get parodies. This shopping bag is clever - but since (unwise) shopping can lead to clutter, please be careful out there!
And if you'd prefer a reminder that it's OK to lose it sometimes, this might be the poster for you.

I LOVE this, and the fact that I'm moving to England - it's perfect! :)
I think I like the freaking out one... even though I probably need the 'keep calm' message much more.
Thanks, very humorous post!
Claire, Carmen and Struggler: I'm so glad you all enjoyed this one.
Who did the Freak Out and Cry A Little poster? It cracks me up
The Redhead, that poster came from an Etsy shop where it is now sold out.
