Home renovations have not been high on our priority list the
last little while, I am been itching to make a few changes but time and energy
just haven’t allowed it.
At the beginning of the year I was on a drive to clean out
and declutter of which I did a pretty good job, I definitely made a dent but
then life happened and our clean out remained unfinished. I think I have a
picture of perfection in my mind which is very much unattainable BUT I do want
to get back at decluttering and cleaning out to make our home a bit more free
and easy. When life is busy and I get stressed I find a clean home calming and
it becomes my safe space – if it is NOT clean I feel trapped and it’s just not
helpful.
Our bathroom has been untouched since we moved in really –
it’s a small space and will take alot of money to re-do completely (which I am
seriously considering) so to make it just bearable we just got some new mirrors
and towels and that will do until we are able to change it.
It all stared again when I cleared away the clutter in the lounge and when looking at it I just felt happy! I feel like just because we have kids doesn't mean that has to be toys in every corner...
Of course as a mom there is always a little tag alone while shopping but gosh, isn't she the cutest tag alone ever?
I also finally found a comforter that I like - we prefer comforters to actually duvets so now I am on the look out for a spare so once a week we can change bedding without having to use old bedding.
I ordered a giant ruler to keep measurements of the kids heights - we have tracked this since birth and wanted to do it on a wall in our home but if we never moved I would be so heart sore - this is the perfect solution. It will end up in Ollies room once we have finished it I think.... although I really like it in the lounge.
