can’t wait to have a clothes line to hang my aprons and homemades dresses
I can’t tell you how much this tradfem group inspires me. Whenever I feel in a funk or need some motivation in regards to my home needs I always find it here. It reminds me that it’s ok to put on “people clothes” instead of my sweats, clean something, and do a little cooking. Thanks for the inspiration lovelies!
- Go for quality over quantity- spend the extra money on sturdy, well-made wooden furniture pieces rather than Ikea when you can. Second hand stores are a greatand inexpensive way to do this.
- Decorate with the seasons- change up the accessories to match with the time of year and holidays and they will always feel fresh and welcoming.
- Put out a vase of fresh flowers or a potted plant- I recommend seasonal flowers that you found in your garden to save money. Dried wheat works best in the fall and pine branches in the winter. Be creative!
- Make things for your home- crochet a throw blanket for the couch or show off your embroidery in a frame! It will give the house character and offer something to talk about when a guest comes over.
- Bake cookies and bread frequently- is there anything better than something fresh out of the oven?
- Have different lighting options- after the sun goes down, lamps and candles can create cozy ambience that overhead lights often don’t.
- Keep it tidy but not “cold”- clean up after yourself but don’t obsess over it. Focus on making good memories in your house and cleaning up after so that you have space to make more good memories. If you have a bunch of papers lying around, even putting them into piles makes it look better.
- Make it comfortable- this is especially important for places where you spend a lot of time like your bed. Pay attention to the textures of fabrics (are they soft on your skin?) and how plush everything is.
- Surround yourself with beauty- choose the art you decorate with carefully and make sure it evokes good emotions and memories. Authentic pieces that you got from a local artist or on a fun vacation will always have more meaning than something that was mass produced.
Hi babes. Today we’re going to talk about self-care and some things I’ve been working on to help preserve my little bit of sanity and improve the quality of my lived life.
So for context, those of you who don’t know me, have probably not read the book I wrote about self-care. You can download and read it for free here (right click and save as, if you use the kindle chrome extension, you can open…
Day 5: A quick update on my decluttering
(I may not have perfect skin, but these lemons do. I also just felt like I had to find a refreshing image to match my refreshing feeling after all the tidying up and since it’s pouring and flooding like no tomorrow in Sydney, I was not going) Cleaning out my room has never felt so good. I have found so many things that I didn’t even realised I owned and got rid of some many seriously outdated…
