I got a new place ✨ it’s so cozy… I’m really happy about how it turned out. It was kinda ugly when I found it but the hardwood floors and the huge windows sold me. I’m still looking for a desk atm.

Reminders to myself for future reference:

• Paint your mum a painting every year for her birthday
• Write letters not cards for birthdays
• Keep lots of children’s literature in your home for all the visiting kids (and let them keep them if they love it)
• All your guests should have their poloroids taken, and put on the fridge
• Couches face each other not the tv
• Do I need a tv? (Laptops and projectors work just fine)
• Get big jars for preserving lemons
• Wallpaper can go on the ceiling too!
• Books shouldn’t be empty (sticky notes and flowers need somewhere to go)
• Bookshelves should have board games, magazines, photos, ceramics and of course books.
• Ugly armchairs are investments
• Have paintings and art on the wall please
• That being said, have beautiful bowls and ceramics first, they’re both art, but you can’t eat off a canvas
• Leave notes around the house, and make sure to add a drawing to make it engaging
• Lots and lots of lamps and ambient lights, and make sure they’re warm toned
• Journaling makes you happy, stop forgetting that.
• Big calendars are helpful
• You like watercolour more than acrylic, but your better at acrylics (buy less acrylic)
• A physical hand written recipe book is useful, you hate most recipes you get online.
• Librarians are lovely people and they won’t be mad at you (just return the book)
• Read one book before buying two more
• You don’t actually like cereal that much
• You should have a rocking chair one day.
