Fall Nesting Tips: #18
Small Changes
Elevate daily tasks into beautiful moments of the day. You know, we all have laundry. We all have to do paperwork. We have to shower and get ourselves presentable for the day. Most of us have to clean our toilets ourselves. In these long months of fall and winter, being stuck inside doing the same tasks day after day can be rather dreary and sometimes down right depressing — unless we make our homes a place of inspiration, peace and beauty.
Look around at the areas in your home where you perform daily rituals…your laundry room or closet, your bathrooms, your office or desk area.
Are they a pleasing place to spend time?
Do they make you happy when you enter or do you want to get out of that space as quickly as possible?
It is a great time to give those areas a quick makeover before the holidays take over our days. Most of those spaces are the smallest of the house, so the budget can be equally small and the time needed to spruce them up can be minimal. A quick coat of a fresh new paint color to make us happy when we open our closet doors, one roll of wallpaper to liven up a dreary office corner, a pretty quilt folded on a shelf, or a new set of baskets in the laundry room can work wonders on our psyche.

Go ahead and look around your home.
