My home has clear windows and is simple and plain, but I don’t know when I started losing contact with my home.
When I got home, all I could think about was work and endless problems!
Coming to the kitchen, although my kitchen is spacious and bright, it was already dark when I got home, and I left in a hurry in the morning. My mother-in-law lived in my house for several years. At that time, although she was responsible for all the shopping and cooking, the smell of cooking fumes and the unpalatable food in the kitchen made me lose awareness of the kitchen and food.
The study is the place where I stay most often. I stay there most of the night with all kinds of books and materials. Then there are endless materials to write and endless messages to send.
I hardly have time to go to the living room, the sofa and TV are just decorations.
The bedroom is where I put myself at night, and my husband bought the bedding. I have no idea whether it is comfortable or like it.
Since I came into contact with some topics of space organization last year, I agree with the view that home is the cradle of dreams and the place where the soul rests. I felt like my soul was far away from home, so I decided to change my lifestyle and focus more on my home life.
So began my journey of more than half a year to create a happy space in my home!
The first thing to start is the kitchen. Take out all the utensils in the kitchen and put them together. Many utensils that have not been used for a long time should be cleared away. Even if they are new, sincerely thank him for coming. My home, and then send him to a place where he can be more useful. Next is cleaning from the stove to the sink to the console, cleaning the refrigerator table and cleaning the floors and walls. At the same time, place flower arrangements and clean the space with essential oil spray to make the whole space appear bright, clean, beautiful and fresh. As long as I am free, I will cook delicious food for my family here, so the kitchen has become not only a place to enjoy delicious food, but also a place for emotional connection, sharing and communication as a family. This space is filled with laughter and love.
I made simple changes to the living room, laying a carpet and placing a desk lamp. The space immediately became warm and slightly energetic. Because it is carpeted, children especially like to lie down and play on it, so it has become a happy space for children to play. It is planned to become an entertainment place for our family. We can put a projector to watch movies, because my living room is large enough.
The bedroom was also slightly modified, and things we each liked were placed on the bedside table, such as flowers, candle holders, and photos. The key point of this space is to clear out the items in the closet and drawers that you are no longer interested in. You will feel much more relaxed. The clothes you see are all the ones you like, and you will feel happy. Also, use candles and essential oils to cleanse the space. Walking into this space will give you a feeling of relaxation and warmth.
The bathroom also takes a lot of effort, because we go to this space very frequently. Therefore, the cleanliness of the space is not a problem, and it must be fragrant. On the sink, from the original arrangement of various toiletries in various colors, to the simple arrangement of only a few colors, stored in storage bottles of the same color, it is indeed much more visually beautiful.
Before adjusting and adding new objects, the most important thing is to clean up the clutter. I found that I used to put some things in every corner of my house. They looked well packed, but I couldn’t tell what was stored at a glance, so I didn’t remember that I had them at home when I needed them. There are even some things that have been put out of use. I used to think that just in case I need to use it one day, I would put it away (especially when the old man is around), but that day never came. Clutter actually consumes a lot of people's energy. Even though they are in the corner, they can make people feel heavy and chaotic.
Home is a place where people can replenish their energy, just like recharging, so it is particularly important. Since I did some cleaning and organization at home, I feel much happier at home. I want to go home whenever I have free time. The family laughs a lot more and my life is full of happiness!
Of course, the creation of happy space has been continuously upgraded...
Female compatriots who want happiness can also try it!
This is a photo of my home last summer. Because I didn’t take any photos when the sun was nice recently, I will take some photos to share with you next time.
It’s already very different!
