Home Renovation: From A Mother’s Point Of View
Each nook and cranny of your home was alright when all of a sudden, an offer of a new beginning arrived knocking on your door. Immediately, you saw your musty curtains, your dull furniture, and your boring lay-out. You remembered one quotation, “Do not do for tomorrow what you can do for today.” Strange as it may appear, this quote became more real to you than at any time that you have been a mother to three beautiful kids. Being the mother, you realized that you are the only one who can do it; the one who holds the eye of the tiger for details. You hesitated; but were innervated when you have remembered seeing demos in the television and reading much about it on magazines. In a short moment you told yourself: My consciousness is enough! What you want to do finally came out, capsulized in one word: renovation!
Before we jump on getting giddy painting and purchasing things that we need, let us first be smart and make a checklist for our project: Are our sofas not as colorful as before? Do they possess a pigment that is becoming an magnet for germs and other microorganisms? Are our once cream-colored soothing bed turned into a gray-colored cushion with deep depressions? Does everything just seem flawed to our eyes? If we responded yes to any of these questions, then our wandering view about our family’s future is just right. And we know for sure that our being perfectionist will not let this moribundity continue.
With all the careful scrutiny and budgeting, the process of renovation may really seem abstruse. It will consolidate a knowledge of reinventing things which may need the powers of an engineer; a plan of a new theme which may need the powers of an architect; and of course, a basket of pixie dust (that will make your new home a picturesque of beauty) which may need the magic of a fairy. But who says we cannot be an interior designer? Who says mothers are just a crew of weaklings that cannot even lift a nail? Well, for the information of non-home makers, we are also capable of performing novel things; particularly if it is for our dear families. With this vindication, we can now “borrow” our hubby’s bandoleer and arm it with our essential weapons for house reinvention.
After our home check-up and budget computing, let us now finally begin with our project. The things that we may do are the following: Modify Colors – Color is everything; it has an impact on our moods. We should determine the perfect color that will fit onto the different personalities in our home; Get Over: Space is precious; it is the key to lay-out. We should get over with the old, unaccomodating and cumbersome things we still keep in the house that causes it to be crowded; Add- The balance lies in addition and subtraction. If we take away old things, the remedy is to replace them with new and definitely accomodating ones. These additions should not only be cozy to our family but also to the size of our home; and lastly, Creativity- Creativity is the cherry on top of our ice-cream. It is the element that gives vibrancy.
Uneasiness and Muscle Aches, these are the sure symptoms that we will get after this project. At the end of our gallant and wearing pursuit, we may be even tagged as bizarre for our audacious venture into something we are not really familiar with. But do not fret and regret, success or not, we surely gained something out of it. Just like what one quotation said, “Experience is what you get when you do not get what you want.” With a “new” home, we can now be rest assured that every nook and cranny is fine. We may not be experts on house renovation but fortunately, we are moms; we know best.
