Transformations
Iām thrilled to share a project that brings me joy every time I pass by it! This little transformation in our hallway is a perfect reminder of how even small changes in our home can have a big impact. Itās all about choosing how you want your space to make you feel.
For the longest time, this area was super basicājust two simple hooks on the wall for jackets and bags. Honestly, I wasnāt a fan. We have plenty of closet space for coats and bags, so the hooks felt out of place and uninspiring. They didnāt add any value to the space, and worse, they didnāt excite me or my girls (my little "beans") as they headed down the stairs each morning.
Thatās when I asked myself:
How do I want this space to feel?
And how do I want my girls to feel as they walk downstairs every morning?
The answer came almost instantlyāI wanted it to feel inspiring!
I took down those boring hooks and decided to create a hallway that would brighten our mornings and set a positive tone for the day. With just a few simple posters and frames from the Dollar Store, we completely transformed this little corner into something that lifts our spirits.
Hereās how we did it:
We found inexpensive white frames at the Dollar Store and filled them with fun, uplifting posters. These posters are filled with positive, motivational messages that remind my girls to embrace the day with joy and confidence.
Instead of drilling holes in the wall, we used 3M hooks to hang the frames. It was quick, easy, and keeps everything looking neat and clean. Plus, itās renter-friendly if you ever need a simple solution for hanging!
Now, every time we walk down the stairs, weāre greeted by bright and cheerful reminders like āBegin Here, Begin Todayā and āFind What Makes Your Heart Smile.ā Itās a small change, but it has completely shifted the energy of the space.
This project was a powerful reminder that we get to choose how our spaces make us feel. I didnāt need a big budget or a complex planājust a clear vision and a little creativity. And now, every morning when my girls head downstairs, they see these positive messages, giving them a little boost of encouragement as they start their day.
For me, the best part is how much it makes me smile every single time I walk by it. Itās amazing how much joy a small change can bring!
Iām so happy with how this turned out, and I hope it inspires you to think about a space in your home that could use a little extra joy. Whatās something you could tweak or transform to make your home feel more like you?
Letās choose joy and inspiration in our homes, one small project at a time.

''I highly recommend her for your
next organizational project!''
''Everyone needs a non-judgmental ābest friendā who will work shoulder-to-shoulder with you as you work toward your organizational goals. Julie is that best friend. In the kindest and gentlest way, Julie helped me work through a large project in smaller, more manageable tasks. She kept me focused on the task at hand, dealing with both the physical and emotional attachment I had with some of the items I had held on to for much too long. Whether itās a short-term or long-term project, Julie can help you get to the finish line! I highly recommend her for your next organizational project!'' - Kathy
''She opened my mind to new tools and strategies into my daily life''
''My experience with Julie was incredible. She is a kind, calming, safe space. I enjoyed the exercise we did together. It really help me view my emotions from a different perspective. She knew what questions to ask and how to help me analyze my feelings. Sheās educated in what she does. I would love to do it again with her!! She opened my mind to new tools and strategies into my daily life. ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø''- Kate
''It quickly gave me perspective on how I allow my emotions take control''
''The exercise was quick and effective. It quickly gave me perspective on how I allow my emotions take control. Itās interesting how I had immediate answers to the questions I was asked. I can only speak for myself, but this changed my thoughts for that day and I was present. I did continue to think about the exercise the following day and tried to remember how I felt when I answered the questions. I believe it was effective. I plan on using that exercise or at least remember what I answered when I feel like Iām spiraling or overthinking my thoughts'' - Maritza
''I feel about myself and take care of myself is related to so many aspects of my life, including my relationships and decluttering my home.''
''Being in this community with Julieās guidance has helped me to understand about Self Care and Self Love, two concepts that were very foreign to me. I get it know, and Iām learning more all the time about how the way I feel about myself and take care of myself is related to so many aspects of my life, including my relationships and decluttering my home.'' - Laura
