I look around, at the walls, at the windows and I think: “oh, home, sweet home”. Home, that place where we feel at peace, comfortable and calm. Our environment, our everyday refuge.

A place that can say a lot, that can hold many memories, nostalgia or can make us feel locked up, if we don't feel good there. Because it is important to realize how we feel...
A place that can say a lot, a lot about ourselves, who we are, our family, our lifestyle, our tastes and way of seeing things. A home is the most important place. Somehow it expresses a lot about us, it has our energy, and in matters of energy and building a home, I also think of harmony (Feng-Shui can inspire us a lot), and that's how it should be, a place where you feel good.
A home can be the heart of our life, sometimes it can become the workplace too, where we grow up, where our family grows, where we toast to good news, cry in the bathroom for bad news or where we lie on the sofa. when we are tired. It is where our bed is and from there where our dreams begin.
Sometimes one of our dreams can be to have another house, to leave the previous one where we no longer feel comfortable, where the noises from outside, the neighbors, the old furniture and walls, the usual views or those bad moments that we perceive even in every corner. You have to change, find a new perspective and a new home. Changing houses can be one of the best ways to break with the past if that roof weighs us down a lot and start from scratch, opening wide those new windows, through which now it seems that much more light enters.
I am in that situation, a lot of light enters, yes, but I also have to make changes, leave things with a different style, adapt details to another way of living and for that I have to do a little renovation. Start and reform, to build a new life.
And it has to be done now, at the beginning, although the beginning is being slow due to the summer season and holidays. It is difficult to find the right professional people during these two months, it has cost but the whole process has begun. Changes are already seen, small things that make a world. While I hear the hammer and the drill. You have to have a lot of patience and organize yourself well, there is no time for many walks but to be at home, watching, giving instructions, doing things, thinking of different options, of alternatives when an unexpected setback appears, or bringing construction materials, shopping packages and decoration objects. With this heat, on the worst days of summer, without a doubt, all this becomes heavier, but I look around again, I touch the walls of an unfinished environment but already so pleasant... and it's worth it. And helping with some tasks can be an opportunity to boost our creativity!

I'm looking at things to buy, designs, colors, materials... that's another world. You have to choose and make lists, go to places or look at many photos on the internet. Little by little, each thing achieved is one more achievement, one more tile, a little more paint, some more furniture. And while we are building a new life, to our measure and of our color.

We are making a home somehow, this time, the home we want and the renewed foundations for many new beautiful and happy moments. The home that will be the reflection of that wish that I dreamed of in another house and that is now a reality, a reality with many things still to be placed and many more plants to put, but that, with time, my new reality will be very beautiful.
Thanks for reading! Have a beautiful day also in your nice and sweet homes.

I love my house because we built it ourselves. Starting from the street and in the middle of the house, we chose independently. Dining Room Furniture Supplier ordered https://nordholtz.com/furniture/dining/ at a good price. It is from them that you can buy furniture for the dining room, bedroom, living room, and others for any design.
That must be great, the feeling you are living in your totally own house. Thanks for the info, step by step I will put more things, still some painting needed. Here in my country also a lot of furniture available even local. I try to find quality and good price, and nice design of course as those ones.
