Design Series: New Year, New Vibes. Pt. 2

5 Tips for Creating a More Peaceful Home

Hello readers! Continuing on my New Year, New Vibes Design Series, this week I’d like to chat about the art of freshening up.

Freshen Up

Scent is the closest thing tied to memory, or so they say, and who wouldn’t want the memories or your home to be peaceful ones? Skip the artificial air fresheners and candles and go a more organic route by investing in 100% natural oils and a few diffusers. Scattering a few reed diffusers in my home has dramatically cut down on the number of headaches and allergies my family suffers from and has freshened up practically every room in my home.

At night I flip on the ultrasonic diffuser by my bed for an even more peaceful night’s sleep. For the most serene home, choose oils with peaceful properties like chamomile and lavender. Here’s a calming bedroom blend I created that you may like, too.

Shake well and add to your favorite diffuser.

That’s it for this week! Can’t wait to share with you my next tip so check back soon.
