Home is where you hang your hat, and it's where you come at the end of a long day to rest and restore your body and mind. These tips will help you ensure your Lake Oswego apartment is conducive to peace and the rest you need!
Give yourself plenty of space
It's so fun to decorate a new apartment that it's easy to go overboard, finding a piece of furniture or decor for every open space you find. But open spaces in and of themselves provide peace and room to breathe. Refrain from filling every space; let the open spaces speak for themselves.
Put away your phone
One of the quickest ways to steal your peace is to allow your phone to define your home. Choose technology-free zones in your home or techno-free times of day when your only job is to breathe, disconnect and enjoy your apartment.
Don't underestimate the power of smell
Essential oil diffusers can help you create peace at home. Choose a calming scent, such as lavender or mint, to put your mind and body at ease and help you connect with your space. Simmering supper or cookies in the oven can also create a comforting aroma in your home.
Choose meaningful pieces
Your grandfather's dining table, a piece of art you made in college, or a photo of someone you love can make your apartment feel like home. Put thought into your choices when it comes to furniture and decor to connect with your space on a deep and meaningful level.
Put comfort first
Magazine-style apartments might be beautiful, but rigid couches and all-white spaces might not be practical and conducive to rest. Throw blankets, papasan chairs and a good old La-Z-Boy can give you the restful retreat you're looking for.
Choose natural light
Apartments that provide great views and plenty of natural light encourage your comfort and peace at home. Tour apartments during the day, so you know what to expect when it comes to natural light and how you feel in the space.
