January: New Beginnings

New Beginnings…

We love the turn of a new year. Refreshed ideas, new resolutions and renewed focus. While the month of January is usually full of well-researched ideas for lasting change, we choose to concentrate on motivation and the feeling of excitement that comes with a fresh start.

At the beginning of a new year it becomes all too easy to look at all the things that we want, or even need, to change. This is appropriate, but we also love to focus on the ideas, designs, and sentiments that we are getting right. These can include meaningful, curated decor, a cleaning routine, or even a daily family tradition, such as shared dinners. To us, these are the small things that make our house feel like ‘home’.

Resolutions involving the home can include tidiness, clearing clutter, redecorating or even renovation. These changes can start little, such as one individual daily goal, or they can be a weekly goal shared throughout the family. Tackling these commitments deserves an award and should be applauded; we always encourage the drive to improve our homes. Creating the atmosphere desired for your home is achievable through small changes and celebrating the small wins that happen daily.
