A Charmed and Happy Home





I've been thinking a lot lately about the above quote from Deborah Needleman.  I picked up her book, The Perfectly Imperfect Home, and it really resonated with me.  Have you heard of it?  It's a very easy read, full of honest, practical decorating advice.







Spending so much time and energy on making a house a home can sometimes feel frivolous.  This quote helped me realize that creating a happy home, one that you and your family enjoy being in, feel safe and comfortable in, where love, food, and romance abide, is anything but frivolous.  It is, indeed, noble.
