As I finish up “Love The Home You Have” I see that I may have a long process ahead of me to cultivate contentment and love for my home, but that is not going to stop me! I am excited to begin the #LoveYourHomeChallenge today!
Yesterday as I was standing outside watching my kids play, (which I am extremely grateful and blessed that I can be home with my kids every day, and that we have a home where we can go outside and play and ride bikes!), I dug through unused items in our garage, items that were being saved for a future garage sale no less, and I made a lovely welcoming display for our front door.
Since these are items that I was getting rid of, what difference did it make if they were going to get weathered? And so began this journey of seeing my home in a new light, learning to use what I have in new ways, and ultimately loving the home I have.
Thanks for sharing you first challenge. I love it when I realize I already have what I need to create a welcoming home. It’s funny how my first thought is often that I need to go buy something, but if I can slow down for a moment and look around, I usually can figure out how to solve the problem or create whatever it was I needed with what I already have!
Enjoy doing the challenges, I can’t wait for you to share!
Thank you Melissa! It was so very encouraging to read your book, and knowing you were living here in my neck of the woods was definitely a fun added bonus!! 🙂
I am excited for the challenges and learning to love my home and what I have!
Very resourceful Clarissa! I am inspired to get busy on the challenges this weekend. Thanks for sharing. Have a marvelous weekend! 🙂
