Before & After: I turned my holiday season depression nest into my new favorite place on earth. ✨🧿

I was hit by multiple pet and vehicle emergencies in the span of 1-2 months, and my room started to become buried by clutter, as I barely had the energy to do anything other than come home and crawl into bed for a few weeks.

Coincidence: The exact moment I sent my friend a before & after picture of all the cleaning work I’d done, I received a notification alert that my favorite band, Magic City Hippies, just released their newest album… right that very second. I made some tea, sat down in my new comfy place, and listened to the new album twice over while cuddling my dog til she fell asleep.

Note: I didn’t buy anything new to decorate this area— I only used things I’d already had on hand, most of which was stashed away in a box somewhere, because I didn’t know what to do with it. It took three hours to go from the before picture to the after picture. ❤️
