A window can be a peaceful, dreamy element in a bedroom, kitchen, living room, and more.  It can cheer you up and be a little something that brightens up your day.  And let’s be real, we all need a little more happy these days.  Whether it’s plants or pictures, window sills are a place with endless possibilities.

So how can you spice up your own window?

​Plants
Plants! A personal favorite of mine at the moment.  I definitely do not have a green thumb, so I have avoided plants for the longest time.  However, after scrolling through beautiful, lively plants on Pinterest and Instagram, I couldn’t resist trying it out for myself.  Succulents and other easy-to-take-care of plants are amazing.  Plants bring life inside - They can even improve indoor air quality and increase your productivity.

Scents and Smells:
Warming, relaxing candles are the perfect addition to a window.  Add some good smells and good vibes for those late night study sessions with some natural soy candles.  Shop some of my favorite candles and candle holders HERE.

Oil Diffusers:
Essential oil diffusers are another great option I love. Everyone could use some aromatherapy. Lavender, peppermint,and eucalyptus essential oils are some of my go-to scents that help me unwind.

Keepsakes:
A window sill is an ideal place to display keepsakes and memories.  Have a favorite picture of you and your family? Put it on the window sill!  Antique family heirloom?  Window sill.  Favorite books? Window sill!

Make your window your happy place, make it a place you love to look at.  I hope these ideas gave you some inspiration to add a little something new to your home!
