109 // ”I’ll decorate my house when the kids leave home!” Is THIS keeping you stuck in home design?

"I'll decorate my house when the kids leave home!"

I don't know how many times I've heard 'the kids' used as the barrier to creating a home that is cohesive, clutter-free and a place the parent's can take pride in. The kids...(sigh)...

The KIDS...as their parents you already do so much for them. 

* You make nourishing meals.

* You make sure they're clothed appropriately.

* You drive them all over Timbuktu and back so they can play sports, dance, create, hang out with friends...

* You provide learning opportunities and experiences for them that broaden their knowledge and world view.

Not to mention...you LOVE those guys more than anything!

 

Investing in your kids' physical environment should land on the above list!

* Creating a home that serves your family means creating a home that serves your KIDS too. 

* Creating a home that you LOVE coming home to means creating a home that your KIDS love coming home to.

* Creating a home environment that is a respite from the world outside your front doors means creating an environment that is a respite for your KIDS too. 

 

Waiting for your kids to be grown and gone before you create a home that you love, a home that you're proud of, a home that serves you and your family is, to be quite honest, too late. Your KIDS should be the REASON you are creating the environment that:

* serves your family

* lights you up

* feels cozy and comforting to your family

* you are proud of
