...it holds my life in its hands. the home is where i clean out my fridge when the new groceries come in. wherein i introduce the new yogurts to the few that are still left. i separate the string cheeses and slice apples for baggies. the home is where i have cookies on top of the fridge and colorful cereal bowls lined up in a row. home is where the laundry lives...
read my entire guest post today over on the lovely website, Bloom. am delighted to be apart of their latest series about a subject i hold dear, home. it was nice to sit awhile and jot down my thoughts about what home means to me. the fact that i have control over creating this space is a pretty amazing responsibility, full of possibilities.
do tell, what are some magic touches you add to your home?
I loved your post Marta! Seriously love the sentence about your home being your heart. You have such a way with words! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteyes. there is definitely an inner sigh of relief for me each time i enter the door to home. most. comfortable. place. ever.
ReplyDeletethings i miss the most when i'm not home: my tiny kitchen and my very own bed.
Home
ReplyDeleteis my
favorite
place
to be.
Lately I have been using all fresh fruits and veggies in a big wrought iron dish as a centerpiece for my table. Great place to store them, plus it makes me happy to look at them, plus it reminds me that I should use them!
Nice post over at Bloom!
beautiful post @ bloom, mart! love your sentiments and enjoy that they almost always match up perfectly with my own.
ReplyDeletei try to add color and texture while keeping it simple, comfortable and decluttered with as much natural sunshine flowing through as possible. a magic touch i am striving to add on a more regular basis is homemade smells....applesauce simmering, bread baking, cookies cooling - those smells will trigger memories the rest of their lives. so i am trying to be sure they are present in my home as often as i can find time to fit them in, and sometimes even when i don't. its worth losing an hour of sleep to get that fresh baked smell spread throughout the house. :)
