House on the lake

We have nearly completed ‘Phase 1’ of a beautiful home on the lake--this is a quick progress picture, so you can see the colors, sofa, rug and feel the BALANCE of this room.

Here is the before shot--we got to save one of the red sofas(!):

• Unifying the flooring with the gorgeous black porcelain tile was first--a GIANT undertaking!!!
• The paint colors were selected for grounding (earth-y orange) and strength (woodsy pine). 
• The beautiful rug defines the living room and still offers space for the three other chairs that are coming (and won’t block your access to the room)…more pictures coming sooooooon!

LIVING ROOM Chi Uppers:

• Position your sofa in a commanding position so that you have a powerful view of the door, the entire room and the outside, if possible--
• Check to make sure your furniture is not blocking your access to the room
• Place your chairs to “have a conversation” with your sofa
  Add beautiful pieces--rugs, art, lighting, pillows, decor--to enhance the chi of the living room
• Use an uplifting paint color to very quickly give a big boost to the living room
• Clear out and delete clutter in storage pieces--bookshelves, credenzas, side tables and surfaces
• Energy flows in a circular pattern so remove any blocks to allow this to happen!​

Homework:
Now it’s your turn! Put your Feng Shui goggles on and no matter what the size of your space--play around with the arrangement of your living room--

Or, what’s one thing that can really make you feel emotionally uplifted in your own living room this week? Maybe it’s from the list above or maybe you’ll look at your Living Room from a new perspective--and discover a fresh insight all your own!

Whatever it is, promise yourself you’ll take at least 10 minutes and do ONE THING to clear clutter or add beauty or push furniture around and give yourself a fresh new living room space - because you deserve it!

But most of all, please contact me to let me know what your living room goal is for the coming week! I’d love to hear all about it - and feel free to send photos, too!

(And of course, if you need some support redesigning YOUR living room, just reach out and we can set up a time to chat about supporting you with your feng shui project.)

I can’t wait to see what you come up with… 

Till my next love note…
XOXO
