Making Room for Comfort, Inspiration, and Joy

I visited my niece's house that she shares with her girlfriends. It's a small bungalow in a trendy neighborhood. 

They have slowly transformed their temporary home into an oasis of comfort, connection, and simplistic beauty.

As they busily begin their new careers, continue education, and date, they have a place to return to each night, a place to rest, grow, and dream.

They created a coffee bar in the corner of their dining room. Syrups are displayed in glass soap dispensers. Mugs with happy colors and messages are hanging on the wall. Pictures of Italy remind them of their love to travel. A plant symbolizes thriving and growth. A candle for celebration and reflection.

​How can you create space for comfort, inspiration, and joy?
