normal home things 🫶🏼

Next month it’ll be a year we moved into our house and we still don’t have closet doors 🤣 we also painted our counter tops to save some extra money bc we had to put a decent bit of work into our home. They’re chipping pretty bad but it’s okay for now. I needed my full length mirror somewhere and the kitchen was the only place we had a space for it! It looks a little odd but it works! #normalhouse #lemon8challenge #reallifeathome #normalizenormalhomes

... Read moreMoving into a new home can be a rewarding yet challenging experience. Many homeowners face common obstacles such as decor choices and practical arrangements. Painting countertops is a budget-friendly solution that can add a personal touch, yet it requires ongoing maintenance. Living without closet doors can create a unique aesthetic but also poses challenges in organization and space efficiency. To address these issues, consider creative storage solutions, like stylish bins or shelving, to keep your home tidy. Incorporating mirrors into your decor not only enhances natural light but also gives the illusion of a larger space. Embrace these home imperfections as part of your journey, allowing you to personalize your space with what truly reflects your lifestyle. Remember, every home tells a story. By sharing your experiences, you can inspire others to appreciate the beauty of a lived-in home. Engaging with communities focused on home improvement can offer additional insights and support as you continue to make your house a home.

Things normalized in motherhood that aren’t normal
There’s a-lot more we go through that stays unsaid. We need to share more of those realistic moments and know we are all struggling in the same way, it’s sad that society has made these common and normalized in motherhood. It’s just another reason to believe that we are amazing.🩷

It is still a work in progress. Wall art + plants will be added throughout the home but we just moved in and I’m taking my time to find the right pieces. One cozy step at a time. I want pieces that speak to me and not just random things that were thrown together. #normalhouse #lemon8challenge

Things we forget are normal when you grow up too fast 🌸🍋🫶
There are so many things that become our norm when we are forced to grow up to fast: feeling guilty when things are good, bracing when things are calm, feeling like a burden for having a need or wanting support. Here’s what I want you to know: normal doesn’t mean healthy and normal doesn’t mean

things that used to be normal…
It’s honestly crazy when you think about it. The things people now pay extra for, fight to maintain, or label as “healthy living” used to just be… normal life. Fresh food. Playing outside. Home cooked meals. Knowing your neighbors. Eating dinner together. Less chemicals. Less screens.
