Your space doesn’t have to spark joy 24/7. Maybe your wallpaper is giving you the ick. Or maybe a DIY project you were excited about is suddenly seeming a little meh. It happens. Give yourself some grace. Explore a random garage sale and check out the weirdest thing you can find. Make something just for the thrill of it.

Don’t underestimate the magic of a fresh coat of paint or a well-placed mirror. And if you’re hoping to expand your sense of belonging more broadly, dare to imagine the best possible outcome.
