First STR - Feels like Home Vs. Feels Empty
We are currently putting our first STR on Air B&B and VRBO. The house we have is 3300 sq. ft and has a lot of built-in shelves and cabinets.
I am curious about decorations.
Should I worry about trying to decorate and fill the empty shelving throughout the house? Do any of you have problems with people stealing decorations/pictures?
We have a lot of neat stuff to decorate and make it unique, just wanted to reach out and ask before I put too much in and set ourselves up to have an issue. Thank you!

I wouldn't over do it, but don't make it look baren either.
No I have never had any pictures or decorations stolen.
