Well, Christmas has come and gone for another year. The New Year has begun. It's the time of year a lot of us think about making changes; different eating habits, cleaning out our closets, downsizing and prioritizing to 'SIMPLIFY' our lives. As I put away the Holiday decor (which I wasn't in a rush to do this year) I am determined to make some decorating changes. It's easy to let my home slide while keeping the shoppe 'new and changed up'. Sometimes it's just a few minor changes that can change the atmosphere or give rooms a new look. One thing I like for storage is baskets. While I like the looks of them, they can also be functional; holding books, towels, etc. We recently recieved some here at the shoppe. It'll soon be time to change up the greens from pines and spruces to more 'spring' greens.
