I love having a closed concept at home.For me, a closed concept house means that (in most cases) there is no direct view from a main vital space to the next. The Romans are separated by a wall, a door or an arc. In our house, while there is a view from the entrance to the living room, most of our main living room separated from the ethers.They often ask me about the disadvantages of life without the direct vision lines that tend to come with houses built in the last twenty years.

Earlier this year, I shared the first publication of our Wit & Delight Entertaining series, “how to organize an informal dinner.” This series is a collaboration between my Lisa friend.

We can receive a sales part if you buy a product through a link in this article. I will admit it. When it comes to shoes, my self -control is questionable at best. I can transmit a fashion lid or omit a waste in the denim, but a nice pair or shoe? That’s where my willpower ends. Case in question: duration of my recent cleaning of the closet, I managed to donate nine bags of clothing, but I could only separate from six pairs of shoes. With the summer style just around the corner, I have been looking for the…
The holiday season is in full swing. To maintain my impulse expense under control, I began to maintain a long list and in execution of things that seem intriguing that I would love to have. I call it purchases without guilt because the success of the dopamine I receive when organizing my favorite products almost triumphs that press the purchase, it is if I follow it enough. Most of the elements in this list come from this process.Whether you are looking for gift ideas or reading just for fun, I hope you find something that caught your attention. Here is…
With the correct intentions year after year, why do we fail in our resolutions? I don’t know the answering machine, but I have two ideas. On the one hand, they are bold. There is nothing wrong with the big objectives, but to be sustainable, that last until the following year, the objectives must be feasible. Second, and I think this is the greatest culprit of what interrupts our success: we begin to pursue our goals without being aware of how our lives are currently seen or how we really spend our time.Knowing your habits puts it in the driver’s seat…

We can receive a part of sales if you buy a product through a link in this article. I packed for a few months in just a backpack, I checked a bag for a fast trip and, in some way, between all the test and error, I have realized that the Suitase you bring on a trip really makes a difference. He establishes the tone of his getaway, keeps organized things and, without a doubt, makes the airport less chaotic. With summer trips on the horizon, a reliable piece of luggage is the best essential trip. Whether it goes out…

Two weeks after I hit publish on my 2023 recap last January, everything felt on the brink of falling apart. I could feel that the balance of my life—work, personal life, marriage, and my relationship with all of it—had been teetering on edge for a long, long time. However, I thought that if I acknowledged how I truly felt about it all, the delicate balance of my life would lose its shape, never to be reconstituted.We usually don’t face this circumstance unless there isn’t another option. It sits so profoundly in the dark that there isn’t a map. But we feel…
