House Renovation: From A Mother’s Point Of View
Each nook and cranny of your home was comforting when suddenly, 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 recollected one quotation, “Do not do for tomorrow what you can do for today.” Weird as it may seem, this quote turned more realistic to you than at any time that you have been a mother to three beautiful kids. Being the mother, you understood that you are the only one who can do it; the one who has got the eye of the tiger for details. You wavered; but were innervated when you have recalled seeing shows in the television and learning much about it on magazines. In a short moment you told yourself: My cognizance is enough! What you desire to do eventually came out, encapsulated in one word: renovation!
Before we jump on getting giddy painting and purchasing things that we need, let us first be prudent and make a checklist for our project: Are our sofas not as vibrant as before? Do they have a pigment that is becoming an magnet for germs and other microorganisms? Are our once cream-colored comfy bed turned into a gray-colored cushion with deep depressions? Does everything just seem flawed to our eyes? If we answered yes to any of these questions, then our askant 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 integrate a knowledge of reinventing things which may need the powers of an engineer; a plan of a new theme which may need the abilities 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 bunch of weaklings that cannot even hook a nail? Well, for the information of non-home makers, we are also capable of managing novel things; specially if it is for our dear families. With this vindication, we can now “borrow” our hubby’s bandoleer and arm it with our necessary weapons for house reinvention.
After our home check-up and budget calculation, let us now at last start 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 valuable; it is the key to lay-out. We should get over with the old, unaccommodating and cumbersome things we still keep in the house that makes it packed; Add- The balance lies in addition and subtraction. If we take away old things, the remedy is to replace them with new and definitely accommodating 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 factor 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 labeled as offbeat for our fearless venture into something we are not really familiar with. But do not fret and regret, success or not, we surely earned 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 luckily, we are moms; we know best.
