Tea cup LOVE Inspiration
Who does NOT love or want an organized home? We ALL do of course. How do we achieve this? More importantly, how do we KEEP it organized? Everyday I will post some tips that worked for me. Take anything that you can use, and throw back whatever you cannot use. This is not "One size fits all!"
TIP #1 Give yourself a deadline. Plan to throw a Happy Organized Party, or plan a garage sale and make some cash off of your junk, I mean treasures! You can set a date for either one of these or think of something to do in celebration of your New Found Orderliness! Why go through all of that hard work and not have people over to enjoy the fruits of your labor? You will need to post this date somewhere visible. You need to see it everyday as a reminder. Your planner is a good place, but you need to see this date in your face constantly. Try your bathroom mirror or fridge. During this time close your eyes and envision what your newly organized room looks like. Think about how happy you will feel every time you open the door to this room.

THE HAGUE: PALACE GARDEN
How can you go wrong when you choose the colors of nature for your dining room this holiday season. Isn't this just spectacular? Imagine these colors in fabrics for your chairs. Can't you see these colors in vibrant porcelain glazed dinnerware? In auburn tinted stemware? In beautifully patterned carpet under the table? In scented candles with the fresh smells of cinnamon, pumpkin, or hazelnut? And to top that beautiful table just a branch laying right down the center with leaves full of these beautiful colors of Fall! What time shall I arrive for dinner at your place?

These colors are FABULOUS for your dining room now, especially for the upcoming holiday season. You can rest assured that these colors will look FABULOUS throughout any season!
