Moving a third time in the last seven months, but hopefully this will be a more permanent stay. I have a deep impulse to build a nest and this time around it is stronger than ever.
Currently am reading a most beautiful book called Home Is Where the Heart Is, by Ilse Crawford, and it is inspiring me to stay committed to real, grounded, earthy materials like stone, wood, water, and build a home that is solid and calming.
It will be a work-in-progress to build a home that I have only so far dreamed about, so am trying to be patient with my ambitious ideas, and enthusiastic plans. Some of these include:
refinishing/repainting the wooden dresser I inherited
painting the walls, first my room, then the rest of the house
building a desk… with legs made of stone
hanging curtains to separate bed from workspace
a closet organization system
also, I will be scrubbing this place until its spotless and making it smell like angels! I love cleaning.
