Feeling super inspired by the move to our new home and this continued Thankfulness Series, I recorded this episode all about using the stuff you already have to give your space a new look!
After visiting a friend’s home in Florida after our college graduation, I saw how her mom had repurposed furniture she had in one room to transform another one! She reimagined her bedrooms, living space, and bonus game room for the big kids every couple of years by choosing new themes, changing up the paint, switching out pieces of furniture between rooms, and adding some new accessories.
I definitely did this as we moved into our new house this November, instead of just transferring the same old look we had for years from one home to another.
I talked about updates to our kids’ rooms and shared some projects I worked on in my parents’ home a few years ago, when we created a nursery for the grandkids using furniture they already had in other rooms.
