In The Beginning - It's Simple!

We had been talking about remodeling/updating our kitchen for several years, but for the longest time it didn't happen for one reason or another.

You've heard me say before that we have a small home - it's 3-bedroom with one bathroom, ranch-style. But, I really like the size and especially so now that it's just Ed & I living here. Just the right amount of space. We sort of had that in mind when we bought the place, as we knew we didn't want something too big that it would be difficult to manage day to day. I'm not a big fan of house cleaning and it's everything I can do to stay ahead of the clutter that can creep in, so this house is perfect for the two of us.

 
I found this book - Organized Simplicity by Tsh Oxenreider -  not too long ago, that has really helped me see the importance of simplicity in my home - staying organized and reducing clutter. In the coming days I'll be sharing about our remodeling experience and showing some before and after photos (which many have been anxious to see!). Being intentional about keeping things simple helps so much in bringing balance and peacefulness to my life.

I still have some work to do in this area (my craft studio still needs an overhaul!), but I'm moving in the right direction and feel so much more freedom when things are organized and simple.

Can't wait to share more with you!
