Whether relocating to the new rented house or moving into the newly-bought apartment of your own, you are just in one step before creating the cozy nest that should inspire and has to refill you with energy. FurnitureCart team is here to give you a few tips on how to make your new shelter feel homey and personal to you, from the very moment you move in.

We all know that wherever you go, there you are. So, when unpacking, take out first the things that give you emotional and physical comfort. Waking up in a new place might lead you to confusion, but finding something that you are connected to, will move ground back beneath your feet.

After you have unpacked and found the right place for your favorite robe, toothbrush and towels, take your time to find the right spot for mementos and souvenirs, pictures with family and friends, small but cherished tokens from the closest ones. If you can keep some stuff from your childhood home, find the right place for them in your new place. Your inner self needs those roots to grow in your new home.

While choosing the colors for your new furniture and the walls of your new home, follow color trends, but don’t forget about the palettes that you find comforting, exciting or soothing for you. Kindly take into consideration, that this place should be the court for your life, not a scene for a photoshoot. Make your home your refuge, relaxation island, and reenergizing space.

When buying furniture and rugs, consider comfort over practicality. And, pay due attention to reliable furniture brands. Instead of choosing what fits into the space of your living room or bedroom, find a piece that feels as good as it looks. For these two rooms, you should look more for softness and give yourself the space you need to have a good rest.

Add life to your home, when you have settled palette and furniture pieces in place. Bring living things into your nest: flowers, plants, and pets should be there to gain the joy and sense of comfort. If your space won’t fit a cat or a dog, even a fish tank will play the role of “vitality trigger” in your home. If care for animals and houseplants doesn’t sound like a commitment for you, opt for fresh-cut flowers.

Don’t leave the walls naked, add some art to them and spruce it here and there on the shelves of the curio, tops of accent furniture and accessories, occasional tables. The Art that is close to our hearts, minds, emotions, and energy makes us feel exactly at home. Choose the art and decorative accessories that will bring joy to you, not the pieces you think will impress others. Whatever our eye and heart find beautiful, considers the art.
