Sometimes I think February gets a little left out. January seems to be full of inspiration and creativity and fresh starts, and then February hits and everything seems a bit more blah. That being said, I seem to be enjoying a really productive year so far! For example, I have already made some great progress on my decluttering mission. My home office has never looked better so I have just treated myself to some new storage boxes that I found on the office monster website to keep all of my things safe. There are a few other pieces of office furniture that I want to buy next so I will keep you updated throughout the decluttering process! I’m also considering looking at something like storage buildings because I’m loving how organised everything is becoming. I’ve got so much stuff that I want to get rid of I can already tell it’s going to be a lengthy process. A friend of mine recently had her house renovated and she found a Rubbish collection Melbourne to come and sort the rubbish for her. I’m considering getting a collection company to come to my house depending how much stuff I want to get rid of! It’s something I can sort nearer the time though. Anyway, I’m hoping to bring a much needed boost of motivation to this second month, wherever you need it.
1 | For anyone that works (or blogs, or has a side business) from home: up your motivation here. I think it’s most important to find routines that work for YOU, but this has some nice tips.
2 | Maybe I’m late to the game (I’ve always just rocked the messy bun) but this top knot tutorial is so chic and also maybe the easiest thing of all time. Seriously, try it.
3 | Because it’s still cold and gray and wintery, this is pretty necessary: how to look cute in a puffy jacket. This is the type of inspiration we need in February, my friends.
4 | Ah, I just love this article on being engaged and fully present this year. It makes me want to do better at putting things aside to focus on the moment.
5 | In my quest to declutter, I came across this video about things you don’t need in your closet. It’s straightforward, but sometimes you just need to have someone else telling you what you already know for it to truly register.
6 | It’s been said a thousand times, but I still love these little reminders on ways to get better sleep at night. I’ve been loving my vanilla + lavender candle; so relaxing.
