For some
people, the task of redecorating is one that is undertaken with energy and
enthusiasm. These people want any excuse
to repaint a bedroom or move a sofa to the other side of the room. However, this is probably not most
people. For most of us, redecorating is
a chore. A task that takes valuable free
time and fills it up with shopping, comparing prices and paint chips. It is boring and expensive. But even if the act of redecorating itself is
not your bag, it is possible to put a positive spin on the situation by
thinking about these benefits of redecorating your space.
An Excuse to Clean
Cleaning in
an of itself may not seem like fun, but having an excuse to spend careful hours
going through your things and getting rid of what is broken, what you have
never liked and what is no longer useful to you can be a huge relief. Redecorating is the perfect excuse to spend
this times purging your things and freeing your life out from under the clutter
that all of us seem to accumulate.
Create a Space for You
Redecorating
your home can also be a good time to create a space for you and you alone. Especially when you have a family, you may
feel like your kids have taken over every corner of the house. When you go to redecorate, it may be time to
finally clean out the old guest room and turn it into a sanctuary for yourself.
Having this space can make all the difference since having a place that is all
for yourself where you have chosen the décor can be the most calming gift you
can give yourself.
Upgrade Existing Pieces
Everyone
knows that moving can be a huge expense, so when you first moved into your home
you may have not had the budget to buy the high quality but also higher priced
items that you really wanted. If you
have lived in your home for a while now, your budgetary situation may have
shifted. It could be that you can
finally afford the statement couch that you have lusted over or the solid oak
dining set that was out of reach before.
Investing in these kinds of heirloom pieces can make your home that much
happier for you and for your family.
A New Lease on Your Old Space
This doesn’t
have to mean a literal lease renewal, but rather a feeling of having a new
space. A coat of paint and the
rearranging of some furniture can make you feel like you have a completely new
home without the discomfort and stress of actually moving. This feeling is energizing, exciting and mood
lifting, even in the resulting exhaustion that comes with redecorating.
You deserve
to be truly happy in your space and to surround yourself with things that you
love and that make you feel peaceful.
Don’t underestimate the power of redecorating in improving your entire
life.
