I finally did it. I overcame the fear that I would once again mangle the threading on my poor sewing machine and made a super simple curtain that goes great with my new wall art. (Basically, just a rectangle of cloth hemmed on all four sides. ;)

Today, I am thankful for...
...the whole picture. My little apartment is slowly coming together, piece by piece. A home should be a sanctuary, a place where you like to be, that makes you feel good and restores you. If you don't feel good or comfortable in your home, then something might need changing. Do you need to declutter, redecorate?
I once read that if something in your home doesn't bring you joy as it did in the past, then get rid of it. Your home should be filled with things that bring you joy. If that souvenir you've had on that shelf for years is just collecting dust and doesn't make you smile anymore... recycle it. This is a good rule of thumb to follow to make sure your home is always a place where you want to be.
