47. Creating a peaceful home you love (yes, even with little kids)

So often as moms, we feel overwhelmed by our homes and think, “this is just the season I’m in.”

But our environment matters. It shapes how we feel, how we function, and the atmosphere our families live in every day. Also, I believe stewarding what the lord has given us is one of the highest callings.

In this episode, I’m sharing a few simple ways to begin creating a home that feels more peaceful, calm, and life-giving—right where you are.

The nitty gritty

* Decluttering visual clutter (starting with your countertops)

* Creating “homebases” with trays to simplify spaces

* Using lamps instead of overhead lighting

* Finding your personal style (not Instagram’s)

* Decorating one room at a time

* Romanticizing your everyday life in small ways
