House Goals of 2016

Keeping up with life is hard. Keeping up with house projects is even harder. Despite my lack of blogging in the past few months, I still enjoy making house goals every year to help guide what I want to accomplish in working to make our house more of a home and more cozy.

Since we have a baby on the way, I’m not going to get crazy with my goals this year. I’m trying to stay reasonable and keep these goals within reach. I must say that having these goals really gets me motivated to cross some things off my list, and I usually do quite well at achieving them because I actually do take the time to make the list and keep it close by.

{One}

Complete Landry’s closet

{Two}

Replace mailbox and mailbox post

{Three}

Add finishing touches to courtyard

{Four}

Purchase rug for breakfast room

{Five}

Have artwork framed and hung

{Six}

Make some changes to the nursery

{Seven}

Get new bedding for the master bedroom

{Eight}

Change at least one main light fixture

{Nine}

Get planters for the front door

{Ten}

Have a new breakfast table made

Most of my house goals this year include very few DIY projects and more purchases. I consider it an accomplishment to complete at least half of my goals each year. Last year, I completed a total of six goals thanks in major part to my husband. Crossing my fingers to a successful year! And if I don’t, at least I’ll have another sweet little baby to divert my attention.
