So I read somewhere that great homes are always evolving and changing. Right now, my house is in transition. I love all of my pieces separately, but I am having trouble finding that cohesion that I think will make it more of a home. Maybe all of my stuff doesn't need to go up, but I love it all. So what if I have a big R from an old sign in my bathroom? I love it. I am just gonna go with it and change if I feel like it.


Honestly, that's why I haven't written. I have felt like I was SO confused in my own decor, that I felt kinda silly giving advice when I had none to give.


But, I am having little spurts of inspiration these days, so I thought I would share. 


So, what makes a house a home? You tell me.... Here are my ideas:


1. It smells good when you walk in.
2. It has fresh flowers or plants.
3. Great lighting.
4. Pieces that you can talk about.
5. A touch of unexpected.


Let me know what you think!
