10 Easy Steps to Creating a Minimalist Home

Simply + Fiercely

Embracing simplicity in your home doesn’t mean you have to forgo bright colors, abandon your style, or give up all your favorite things.

Instead, I invite you to consider a different definition of a minimalist home: a space that feels just right for you and your family.

It’s not too cluttered or too bare. The color palette, furniture, and style still represent you, but in a way that’s just enough.

The key is to avoid overcomplicating things. If it’s too hard to follow, you’ll procrastinate, and nothing will get done. Instead, handle your paper clutter right away, as soon as it enters your house.

I do encourage you to think outside the box about what you really need. Also, look for functional furniture that can serve multiple purposes.

Rethink your furniture

Where do you go to relax? Your bedroom? A favourite chair by the window? Under a cozy blanket on your sofa? Elevate these spaces to true sanctuaries by keeping them clutter-free.
