There is nothing more fulfilling than having a home bursting with joy and good vibes. A feel-good home is a dream come true! The mood that we have is influenced by our own experience of a home, and the space that we inhabit affects our everyday living.
Do you want to make your simple abode feel more joyful? Here are five thoughtful ideas to pave the way to your happy home.
Choose happy colors
Colors are closely linked to emotions. They can affect our sensations depending on the brightness, shade, tint, and tone.
For a vibrant mood, we suggest that you repaint your walls with happy colors. These are bright, warm hues like yellow and orange. You can also go for pastel colors like peach, light pink that can also have an uplifting effect. The brighter and lighter the color, the more it gives happy feels. You can also combine multiple primary and secondary colors together, your choice.
Grow a plant
If you have a bigger lot, you can start to grow plants, perhaps a garden. You can grow vegetables for a healthier menu or flowers for your aesthetics.
If you have a smaller space, you can still have a vertical garden for your herbs or you might want to have indoor plants to uplift the mood of your living area and bedroom. Indoor plants are known to reduce stress and fatigue.
Create space for your passion projects
You don’t necessarily have to go out and do the things you love most. You can actually do it at home! Whether you are an aspiring artist or a health buff, giving your side project a dedicated space can spark joy within. You can turn or expand a room for your creative projects like a yoga room, a mini artwork gallery, a music studio, or anything that you like.
Welcome a pet
If you’re looking for a sign, this is it! Welcome a new pet to your home. On an emotional level, owning a pet can decrease depression and anxiety. These furry friends can ease loneliness since their presence encourages exercise and playfulness. Imagine having an adorable warm creature just roaming around the halls of your home – that’s just so cute.
Rearrange and declutter
A cluttered space can cause stress. No matter how clean your home is if you’re stuffed with a lot of things, it might still affect the whole mood. So why not allot some time to assess the stuff that you have and get rid of the things that might not be as useful as now?
A decluttered home has the potential to reduce anxiety since it gives you more space and fewer things to see. It also gives you a better idea of what you want your home to look like and what things you actually need as well as what can you do without.
A home is meant to be the happiest place on earth, why not create one?
