Clear away your clutter
Clearing away your clutter is a good place to start and will immediately make you feel calmer and more organised.
- Make a declutter list and cross off each task as you complete it.
- Tackle one room at a time and organise into 3 piles: keep, donate and throw away.
- Follow a 'one in, one out' rule - for everything you buy, one thing goes.
- Remember Lagom is all about creating a balanced life!
Keep it simple
Making small changes can make big differences. When all your clutter has been sorted out you can think about surrounding yourself with items that make you feel calm, relaxed and cosy and creating a balanced life.
Use timeless classics
Often redecorating and redesigning your room will bring you a feeling of peace and happiness - I know it does for me! So, although Lagom is all about thriftiness why not search out designer clearance fabrics for completing your next soft furnishing project. There are some great fabrics around and you will be getting top quality fabrics for a fraction of the price. Try not to be influenced by fads and look for timeless classics that will not date and will last for years.
Update with cushions and throws
As Lagom is all about being frugal instead of going for a complete room revamp why not consider updating with a selection of new cushions and throws - this will give your room a fresh look. You could also think about moving items from one room to another to give each room an updated look.
As Lagom is all about creating balance in your life it doesn't mean that you have to have a minimalist home devoid of all decoration you just need to consider what makes you feel happy and surround yourself with items you love.
