My minimalist movement is about making my entire home a sanctuary. Having subtracted a great number of things, I am finding what I really need to honor my core values. This weekend we re-homed a dining room table and chairs to a friend. He was very grateful and so was I because it made space for me to create a lounge area. I envision my lounge area as a space to spend my early mornings giving the dogs their morning loves, enjoying my coffee, blogging, and other seated tasks. It's to be a place of retreat.
I emptied the room and used a great steam cleaner from Home Depot. The carpet needed some refreshing now that the puppy is house trained. The walls are a chocolate brown with a chair rail and white on the bottom. I plan to brighten up the space with a light blue color. The new furniture will be delivered Monday. Beyond that, I'm in no rush to decorate. I want to keep things as uncluttered as possible. What items I do add will be for the purpose of bringing nature indoors.
Looking forward to sharing pictures.
