Making your home beautiful during COVID-19

If there’s ever been a time for your home to be a beautiful sanctuary, it is now 🌿

Beautiful Chaos White Farmhouse Living Room

I have always worked to create spaces that curate beautiful lifestyles. In these next weeks, life at home, will be a lifestyle we all share. Here are 3 tips to create a beautiful home that lifts your spirits 🤗

1. Lift your spirits by bringing the outside in 🌱

It’s so good to simply step outside and remind yourself that the world is still going on and we will once again be connected to one another. When you step out, gather natural elements to bring cheer to your home interior. Often, I snip a few branches off of our trees—to add a splash of green to kitchen and bath counters. Even if leaves are not quite in bloom, the branches themselves bring a natural beauty to these spaces. Have fun using vases, pots and canisters that you already have. I promise these natural, sprightly changes will instantly lift your mood!

2. Let the beauty of food decorate your kitchen!

During this time spent at home, I’ve been involving our entire family in the kitchen. We’ve had several evenings cooking together—we are having fun and the kids are learning a few things! Though during the day, it’s every man for himself…lol! I’m trying to keep fresh fruits and veggies out in plain sight, so the chaos grabs for healthy snacks each day! With that, I love how beautifully fresh foods have decorated our kitchen. Often, when I style kitchens for our project photo shoots, I arrange fruits and veggies on wooden platters or in beautiful pottery (if there’s a time to use the fancy bowls to brighten up life, it is now!)

Ways to make your home beautiful during COVID-19

3. Create cozy spaces that remind you it’s okay to take this time to rest 🕊️

I can’t help but see some beauty in all this chaos of at-home isolation. On the bright side, we have been given time to truly rest, reflect and reset. Most of our lives were filled with chaos long before COVID-19. My hope is that through this trying time, we are challenged to evaluate the chaos we were dysfunctionally functioning in, prior to quarantine. May we learn the peaceful pace we were actually created to thrive in—a new and sustainable pace—where we work from the place of rest. After all, we are human BEings, not human doings.
There is a phrase that has become one of my life’s most familiar adages, “The only way out, is through.” Let’s go through this time at home well 💗

I see beauty. I see beauty. I see beauty. Awhile a I see beauty. I see beauty. I see beauty. Awhile ago, I stopped SEEING the chaos in everything—more importantly, I stopped allowing the chaos to take its claim to fame in my life. Chaos is reportable, but it is not sustainable and I decided not to sign up for it any longer. Instead, I asked God to show me His perspective—everyday and in every way. My perspective completely changed. I started seeing the BEAUTY of His LOVE wrangling all things—working despite how chaotic things were. I decided that it was the BEAUTY in the chaos that would be made famous in my life—in my family’s life—and in everything we put our hearts + hands to. BEAUTY brings clarity, BEAUTY brings peace, BEAUTY brings justice to the process and it is BEAUTY that heals the chaos. May it be BEAUTY that is made famous in your home as well ❤️ XO

Be BRIGHT ✨ My 9 yo daughter (Gabby) is the brig Be BRIGHT ✨ My 9 yo daughter (Gabby) is the brightest person I’ve ever met. Everywhere she goes and with everyone she is with—she brightens things up! She never lets circumstances or people bring her down—she lifts everything and everyone up. Nothing around her determines who she is going to be—what’s inside of her is far too bright to be changed. I want to be like Gabby. Friends, the world will brighten up when you and I bring the beauty that’s inside of us OUT—rather than conforming to the chaos ❤️ Sending all my love! XO
