Before and After Main Bedroom--WOW!

9/27/2024

0 Comments

 
Hello Friends!
Today, I wanted to share a completed Main Bedroom transformation in St. Louis…
First let me tell you a little bit about our client…
She is single, and moved to an adorable home in an up-and-coming  neighborhood--upgrades are happening all around her, including a french bakery on the next corner--Oooooo lala!
Her kids are now grown and on their own and she is MORE THAN READY for a fresh new place to live as she begins this new, fab phase of her life. Her Feng Shui requests were support for abundance, health and ROMANCE!
This is the before shot of her bedroom:

She sent this pic to me as she was looking at the house… 

“My bedroom??? What do you think?”

My answer:
“Well...here are the challenges:
  • The room is in the basement (the only bedroom big enough for her King-sized bed)
  • The room feels cold, a cement floor (even though beautifully painted, you can’t ignore that)
  • The ceiling is low--a bit less than 7 ft.
But...I can see that IF we raise the chi to the UPPER LIMIT and IF you’re willing to really go for it, it will be beautiful, bring you So Much Joy and your sparkly, light hearted attitude will ignite change and forward movement in your life!”
Later we discussed...
This basement bedroom (unless it’s really, really, really WOW!) will never call you down, you will have to make an appointment--to go down the steps, to the cement floor, make a hairpin turn at the bottom of the steps and go down a long narrow hall to get there--all of that requires effort. And it's an effort that we are usually NOT WILLING to make...the only exception is if we pull out all the stops and GO FOR IT!!!!!
And, she did...

Here are the highlights:
  • King bed with Gorgeous Forest Green Velvet Headboard
  • Matching side tables, open at the bottom to let the mural show behind
  • THE MURAL (which she says makes her giggle each time she even thinks of it) extending the headboard energy
  • “Love and Happiness” paint (B.Moore) on three walls and ceiling
  • Matching crystal lamps--wowza!
  • A thick area rug, with subtle soft pattern, nearly wall to wall
  • A chair to read, journal, relax.
  • Clutter is completely GONE and everything is put away beautifully.​
The room is so fabulous that she even goes downstairs to read during the day and the HIGH CHI is still soft so as to not disrupt sleep.
What’s coming next for her? Whatever it is, it’s FABULOUS! You can just FEEL it, can’t you?
Also, I should mention that this project has been virtual. An awesome example of what’s possible in “virtual mode”.
Maybe a Feng Shui Design upgrade is in YOUR future…
If you’ve got a project in mind and would like to talk it over, contact us and we will get back to you as soon as possible!
Lots of Love,
XOXO

We had THE BEST TIME in Janesville last Saturday giving a talk to some new friends at Anne Rosa Interior Designs. Welcome to the family! 
Picture
If you’re ever in Janesville, please stop in to see the wonderful selection of furniture and decor that Anne offers--isn’t this building gorgeous?
For this talk, we focused on “The Power of Decluttering”--the side of Feng Shui that opens our eyes to how clutter can affect us in so many different ways and WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT!!!!
We’ve already heard from Ruth and Anne that they’ve started projects and even Anne’s daughter, Maria, was planning to go through her room and give her Duplo toys to her little cousin!
Thank you SO MUCH for inviting us, what a wonderful morning with wonderful people 🙂

If you belong to a group that would enjoy learning about Feng Shui (including decluttering!) please reply HERE
, we would love to chat with you about the possibility of giving a talk to your group, too!

Lots of Love,
XOXO

Lift Your CHI!

9/13/2024

If you want to have MORE (of anything) in your life…
Let’s Start With Your Personal Vibration
​Your Personal Vibration (or Chi) is primary to how you feel and how your life is going…
Picture
There are lots of ways to enhance your personal vibration--actually, just about EVERYTHING we choose to do, we do because we think it will make us feel better, what we eat, drink, watch on our screens, who we talk to, our spiritual connections, what we buy, what we do for work, how we serve our communities--E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G! 
For example, if you have the urge to enhance your space, either through Feng Shui Design or Decluttering, it’s because your home is No Longer a Match to YOU. 
Your personal vibration is HIGHER than that of your home. (Let that sink in…)
Your clutter, paint colors, or even the arrangement of items in your home is a drag, pulling you backwards or making you feel STUCK or out of alignment somehow.
If you decide to declutter or purchase upgrades for your home yourself, you will MATCH your current vibration and your home will feel better, but (and this is where it gets tricky) the feeling will last for only for a short while--we’re always growing and changing, right? 
You will SOON OUTGROW your current choices...
OUR GOAL is to work with you to create a space that is AT LEAST 3-5 years into YOUR FUTURE with the messages for your dreams woven right into the fabric of the Feng Shui Enhancements--whether they are clutter clearing enhancements or design.
And yes, this may feel a little unsettling at first, but for those who feel the urge to jump in and DO IT(!) just know that your environment will have the ability to carry and support you joyfully into your future.
Then, (WATCH OUT!) the things you dream of will start to manifest--it’s kind of like removing a big branch that’s blocking the stream, life begins to flow more effortlessly and may surprise you seemingly out of nowhere!
Lots of Love,
XOXO

What’s YOUR percentage?

I saw a YouTube video this week about a woman who let go of 75% of her belongings. She also decided to only shop from a very short list of “necessities” for one year, consciously choosing NOT to acquire anything else in that time period. She reported some amazing results: 
  • She lost 30 pounds ✨
  • She paid off a substantial amount of debt ✨
  • She got a new job ✨
  • She got very, very clear about what makes her happy (and it wasn’t more stuff) ✨
The results were so astounding that she decided to continue to challenge herself for a second year to see what else could be coming her way...
As I was reading, I was nodding along because not only have I seen those same kinds of AMAZING results for our clients; we often ask clients that very question as we begin working together...
“How much of this can go?” “What’s the percentage?”
The answers range anywhere from 10-75% 
One recent Feng Shui design client, Lori, said “50%” immediately upon me asking...she didn’t even have to think. 
As we looked in her closets, pantry, on top of her desk and dining table, we could see that IF 50% was cleared out of the storage spaces then ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING that was sitting out in her living space (if she is keeping it) would have a home.
AHHHHHHHHHH!!!! 
That’s when we started dreaming about how good it could really be!
If 50% of her stuff is gone and everything’s put away...then the next step was to put together a Feng Shui Design that would infuse her space with empowerment, abundance, connection, and health (Lori’s requests)...
Look out world! I will be sending you pictures as soon as the Feng Shui design project is complete. Lori has a fire inside--she is going after her clutter ON HER OWN--not an easy task! She’s using the re-design and the BIG dreams for her future as incentive to clear it out. If you have a moment, send her some clutter-clearing-love--we can all be with her in spirit!
And, now, what about you? Would it help you to come up with that number for yourself? 
Let’s just play with it…if 50% or 30% or 75% of your items could go, what would you be making space for? How would that change your life? What would you be excited to create for yourself and your family?
Let me know. I would love to hear from you! 
And if you do feel inspired to reply, will you also tell me--what your biggest challenge is when it comes to decluttering? I would be SO GRATEFUL!
Lots of Love,
XOXO
