Small ways to make your house a home
Go for quality over quantity- spend the extra money on sturdy, well-made wooden furniture pieces rather than Ikea when you can. Second hand stores are a great and inexpensive way to do this.
Decorate with the seasons- change up the accessories to match with the time of year and holidays and they will always feel fresh and welcoming.
Put out a vase of fresh flowers or a potted plant- I recommend seasonal flowers that you found in your garden to save money. Dried wheat works best in the fall and pine branches in the winter. Be creative!
Make things for your home- crochet a throw blanket for the couch or show off your embroidery in a frame! It will give the house character and offer something to talk about when a guest comes over.
Bake cookies and bread frequently- is there anything better than something fresh out of the oven?
Have different lighting options- after the sun goes down, lamps and candles can create cozy ambience that overhead lights often don’t.
Keep it tidy but not “cold”- clean up after yourself but don’t obsess over it. Focus on making good memories in your house and cleaning up after so that you have space to make more good memories. If you have a bunch of papers lying around, even putting them into piles makes it look better.
Make it comfortable- this is especially important for places where you spend a lot of time like your bed. Pay attention to the textures of fabrics (are they soft on your skin?) and how plush everything is.
Surround yourself with beauty- choose the art you decorate with carefully and make sure it evokes good emotions and memories. Authentic pieces that you got from a local artist or on a fun vacation will always have more meaning than something that was mass produced.
