Looking for a new look for your home, room, or office?! Have I got a lucrative solution for you! Rearrange and refresh.
“Really?” you might wonder. And yes, really. Refreshing your area, be it your home or just your office desk, can result in a new look. And isn’t a new look what we often are going for to change things up?!
This is what we do at our boutique. Some items sell quickly and get replaced with new inventory while other items seem to linger for ages, just waiting for the perfect person to find them. What do we do with these items that linger? If not moved and rearranged they can begin to look uninspiring and dull. Even the most beautiful of items!
But when we rearrange and refresh our shop we discover dozens of new looks and uses for everyday items. And that is what keeps things interesting and inviting!
The same works theory works anywhere really. Rearrange and refresh. And yes, definitely find new items to incorporate and include – but be sure to work with what you have!
I was sharing this theory with a lady. I showed her one way we had had the shop arranged and then how we had had to change it two days later due to selling a piece of furniture. Both looks were lovely, inviting and fresh.
“Isn’t that like life,” she said to me. “When things feel dull and uninspiring, we need to switch things around and incorporate new things to keep us full of joy and enthusiasm.” (disclaimer: I’m the worst at direct quotes, but this was the idea!)
I just love that!
Life, our outlook, our surroundings need to spark joy. Of course our attitude has to be right and we have to live with enthusiasm too. But it is perfectly appropriate to search out things that fill us with life and energy! We want to be excellent representatives of our God!
Keep this in mind as you go about your day and your work. Recognize what needs to be rearranged and refreshed in order for you to lead an exceptional life! Reorganizing your schedule can also help give you the boost that you need. Pay close attention and carefully design a life that lets you flourish!
Until Next Time!
Hope.
PS. We should always seek to improve ourselves – be it our outlook or our surroundings. Enjoy this post that I wrote a little while back along these lines: https://www.theamericanlady.com/2017/05/24/always-keep-learning-improving/
