Great post as usual. I love your (I have done this)! I have done most of them too. When I think of changing something up with paint, fabric, etc, I just think to myself “it isn’t working for me now, so what do I have to lose?” And I usually love the new version. I have moved furniture, etc inside & outside & room to room (thankful I have a 1 story house now, I used to move major stuff up & down stairs!) Happy tweaking, everyone!!!!!!

I typically gut and clean at least one room in my house each month. This includes deep dusting (moving furniture away from the walls to get back into the baseboards and corners), cleaning windows, cleaning the floors, cleaning out closets (sometimes those are rooms in and of themselves) So, I end up doing this in each room about twice a year (ok, sometimes only once per year). When I do this, the ideas just spark! I take things out, bring things in, move things around. This sometimes causes havoc in other rooms, but it really works. I don’t even have to exercise on these days because it’s a workout! I did this yesterday in my bedroom. I didn’t spend a dime other than the cleaners that I used and my time!

I think often we go buy more stuff first, but we may love our homes more using what we have. I see people shopping buying cartfuls of decor, but I think that can be the desire for new things when maybe at home they actually have prettier items they don’t have displayed to the best advantage. I donated more “cutesy clutter” type stuff, and I feel like it was donating rather than buying that helped me to get the house more so how I want it. I also tried to aim for “Is this my FAVORITE of something, or just an item I LIKE?”. I only want my favorites and not a million things. I have also loved plants being here more than I have ” more decor items.”.
