After the paint dries, accessorize

September 1, 2019 By hautegreyfox

Not too long ago, my husband and I hired a professional to paint my blog room. Well, let’s just say that we had a lot of fun watching the transformation.

How much fun?

We decided to get the rest of the house repainted, and it was so invigorating! Changing the color of the walls of our home felt so good. The change was refreshing, and it was a great way to express my creativity.

Now, it’s time for another fun part: finding accessories to go with the new look and feel of each room. A towel here. Some new cookware there. Oh, I can’t forget greenery.

How do you update a recently painted room? Do you plan a complete remodel, or do you update a long-standing item in the space such as a couch or curtains?

I’ll start by taking multiple trips to Target, y’all. I can spend a lot of time just going down the aisles and getting inspiration. It’s a great place to begin. I’ll then continue to look around at other shops in my town. I’m looking for simple pieces that will add a pop to our newly painted rooms.

Here are a few of my tips:

Ask around.

Have you ever wondered how your spouse feels about a room in the house or how your best friends or family feel? Ask about their favorite part of the room. Maybe it’s the natural light. Maybe it’s a picture on the wall that brings back memories. Before making changes, be open to other ways that you could also explore.

Be wise.

Don’t overspend. It’s an exciting time, so you may think that you’ve found the perfect accessory. Perhaps you can find something similar online or at a smaller shop. Even better, keep an eye on an item and wait for it to go on sale.

Chill out.

It’s okay if you don’t find all of your perfect pieces the week after you painted a room. This is your home, and you want each room to reflect your personality. That takes time. Create a realistic list of design goals, and work your way through them. It may take a few weeks or a few months, but enjoy every moment. This process shouldn’t feel burdensome.

Remember, I encourage you to live boldly, confidently, and in style. This lifestyle applies to your decorating style, too! Have fun!

What does New Year’s Day mean to me? No resolu What does New Year’s Day mean to me?
 
No resolutions.
 
I’ve been on that rollercoaster before, and it never left me feeling my best. Instead, I dream big — and I take it one day at a time. I create a vision board with affirmations, motivational reminders, and more. 
 
I don’t have to accomplish every goal in 2023. I just have to believe my goals are never too big to achieve. 
 
How do you approach the new year?

Wednesday Words of Wisdom - FIND YOUR FIRE #Find Wednesday Words of Wisdom - FIND YOUR FIRE

#Find your fire and do whatever it is that wakes you up, whatever it is that makes you feel alive.  Do what inspires you, what moves you, what makes your heart race. Do the things that ignite passion into your bones.  Chase your dreams, follow your heart, capture the moments that take your breath away.  Do not settle for mediocrity, you have a fire in your soul and a burning in your heart.  Do not let fear, convenience or comfort put out those flames.  Hold onto what lights them with your light.  You are capable and deserving of magic, of love, of the extraordinary-you just have to believe it.  Discover what sets a spark in you, follow the flames and light a fire so big that nothing can extinguish it - there is enough fire inside you to burn brighter than the sun.”
