Have you printed out my free "Walk The Room" sheet yet?
I'm so happy to have my lists because when I am feeling a little overwhelmed by work, I go have a look at the ideas I've written for each room and choose one that I know I can accomplish in my given time frame.
On Tuesday morning, whilst another baked rice custard (pudding) was in the oven, I decided there was time to clean the top of my DVD shelving - which is actually a $10 bookcase we bought years ago at a garage sale - and refresh the display.
Removing the ornaments and runner that had been there for too long, I polished the wood...
...before dusting off my ornaments and trinkets.
I'll need to make a simple 'made-to-fit' runner for the top of this bookcase another day, but for now I used a smaller one that was made a couple of years ago for a magazine and filled the empty space with a pretty cream doily....
Rather than displaying more pears (which I seem to have everywhere) I brought some of my birds together with a sweet message Blossom gifted me a while back...
...and added my "Year of Gentle Domesticity" framed stitchery and the Dream inspiration that Vikki sent me for one of my birthdays.
I didn't stress over whether the colours all co-ordinated, but allowed this little vignette to represent things that hold a place in my life...
When it was done my heart smiled.
15 minutes of my time and a small but nourishing-to-the-soul task was completed.
Are there some little projects like this on your "Walk The Room" sheets too?
If you don't have them yet, they are still a free gift download over here. and you can read how I use them on this blog post.
hugs
