Anywhere can be a house. But having a home means having a personalized space you’re excited to come back to. But unfortunately, social media makes us think that there’s only one way this can look. Social media homes are full of designer furniture, overpriced appliances, and picture-perfect family moments. But that’s not realistic. It’s not even desirable for most of us.
For me, home isn’t about flashy things. It’s about the details, like this LED lighting — the little things that make my daily life more comfortable or luxurious (like this bedsheet set) without breaking the bank. I cherish these little things, such as a bathtime pillow, way more because I know they improve my quality of life every day. Here are some little things to help you elevate your house to a home in small, tangible ways.
