WINTER BLUES? HOW ABOUT A LITTLE GREENERY? DECORATING ONE ROOM AT A TIME!
WINTER BLUES? HOW ABOUT A LITTLE GREENERY? DECORATING ONE ROOM AT A TIME!
Being a CA girl, I can't exactly complain about the ever so needed rain that we're getting right now. But it's the gloomy cold days that make me think about how amazing it will feel that first spring day when the sun hits your face and you are so ready to get out of the house!
So while your still in that cozy on the couch with a cup of tea daze.... Perhaps a room spruce up will make that warm day get here sooner than you think.
There are so many things we can do to start this process and enjoy being home alittle longer. Look around your room. What do you see? Do you feel like your on vacation in a room that makes you want to stay in and enjoy the space? What is it that would need to happen for that room to be that space where you can dream your dreams and luxuriate in sanctuary?
Let's start here:
1. What clutter has accumulated this month? Maybe you still have Christmas decorations waiting to get put away? A pile of catalogues you haven't looked at yet? Okay, how about this, the wrapper from the pistachios you ate last night ? Decluttering is by far the most important thing you can do to refresh a space and bring it back to life. 'Stuff' blocks energy and blocked energy leads to all kinds of after effects from tripping and breaking your ankle to catching the flu. Right now..... I'm serious, right now....... get up and put 5 things away. Throw garbage out, fold and bring your clothes back to the closet, recycle the pile of magazines you are not going to read because you're antsy and need to be productive.
2. Is any of your furniture broken or not working properly? If something is not working, now is the time to fix it or replace it. Torn upholstery or a squeaky chair is not good for the winter hum drums. Bring it out to the garage, bring it to Salvation Army, just get it fixed or take it out. Once that is done, you can start envisioning what can go in it's place.
3. Are your plants alive? If not, take them out. Fresh live greenery is wonderful for a room, energy and mental health. The Pantone color of 2017 is Greenery It's just what was needed this year, a burst of organic, rich, oxygen producing, life enriching green. If you don't have health living plants, maybe try a fake plant if your willing to keep it dusted and clean. If neither of these ideas float your boat, maybe a small accent of green someplace in your room will add that needed breath of rejuvenation.
So you've picked up, cleaned up and added a little greenery.... take a deep breath and enjoy your space. If you still want more of a change and pick me up, consider a room make-over.
