A home is a place to dwell. It’s a sanctuary that can invite us to be ourselves. Our home should be a comfortable haven, with rooms and spaces we enjoy being in. Every part of your home can be an authentic reflection of what you love, arranged in a livable, pleasing, and lovable space for your family to gather.
So let’s explore how you can simply create a beautiful place that you can call home in every sense of the word.
Feeling confident in your own style and with your decor choices might take time.
You don’t have to start with a dreamy house, nor do you have to spend a fortune to make what you have more beautiful. A magazine or Internet image of a room that catches your eye is often a Photoshop-enhanced presentation of a well-designed corner with curated items all set up for the perfect shot. While a beautiful photo can inspire us and we might even capture magazine cover looks, what really matters in our home is how it feels to be there.
It helps to start with the courage to experiment and the inspiration to spark your ideas.
You will define your style by living it first. Your life experiences and personal preferences should inspire the look and feel of your home. Perhaps help you, your faith and family are priorities. What motivates your decisions, and what passions impact your life? These are elements you can incorporate into your home. No one will share your exact style because there is only one you! Your style will ebb and flow through each changing season of your life, springing from your unique personality and reflecting the joy you find in living. So go ahead and create a style that has no official designer name. Boldly design a look inspired by your life and everything you love. Mix it all up to give your home its own unique flair, creating the perfect space for you to come home to each day!
8 WAYS TO A HAPPY HOME
1. Fall in love with one corner. If your home seems as if it’s falling apart, create one happy corner in your study, dining room, or bedroom.
2. Go back to basic routines. As you do laundry, cook, or empty the dishwasher, think about how you are improving your home and state of mind. Tidy, putter, relax. Remind yourself of the simple routines, habits, and rhythms that give you peace.
3. Let home be the centerpiece of your joy. What are 20 things you look forward to doing in your home? Sort books, create a new display of accessories, rearrange furniture, and place inspiring quotes and photos of people you love around your home. Being optimistic today ensures more joy tomorrow.
4. Reset the day. Step away from a stressful house project to change your disposition. Take a walk, sip coffee on the porch, or window-shop to reset the day toward happiness.
5. Dream. Imagine the things you would do to your home if time or money were unlimited. Then decide how to make one of those dreams come true soon with a little creativity.
6. Count those blessings. Thankfulness for the home you have is an important part of loving life. If you are frustrated by a lack of progress, count the things you love about your home as is.
7. Treat yourself. What would make you happy right now? A new pillow in your reading nook chair? A fresh doormat? Pretty, plush towels? A woven basket for your mail? Simple treats can make a big difference in your mood, motivation, and creativity.
8. Share your home. Invite friends over to enjoy a space you recently saved from clutter. Gather neighbors on your porch for an impromptu dessert. Hospitality, laughter, and shared moments will remind you of all that makes you happy.
