June is National Homeownership Month – a time to celebrate the joys of owning a home. This year, it has a special significance for my husband and me since we now own a home. So I thought I’d share some quotes about home.
Six months ago, we left our city apartment for a three-bedroom house in the country. After nine years of renting, we now own a home of our own. Well, a mortgage anyway.
I love, love, LOVE our house – for what it is and what it can become. I live and work at home, and it’s one of my favorite places to be. But it didn’t feel that way at first.
Do you feel “at home” in your home?

How to Create a Feeling of Home
Our house is a new build. It was fun to drive to the home site each week to take construction photos and watch the house take shape. But excitement turned to overwhelm when we finally moved in.
How could we create a feeling of “home” right from the start? How would we fill those blank walls and empty spaces without breaking the bank?
With a mix of creativity, my Wayfair wish list, and my husband’s knack for finding good deals. AND … with a clear understanding of what “home” means to us.
