Light
Now more than ever we find ourselves indoors, especially if we live in cold or rainy climates. Maybe you can relate when I say there are times I can start to feel a little claustrophobic. Despite being organized in my home, I have found myself longing for more open bright spaces. A solution for this is to bring lighter colors into our living spaces. I recently changed my darker rug to a light-colored rug, replaced my throw-pillow covers with lighter neutral colors, and bought a soft washable rug to go on the couch so my sweet older dog, Mya, could join me for morning coffee and afternoon writing sessions. It feels like a brighter, softer, more cozy way to spend these rainy winter months.
