7 Home Quotes to Help Make Your House a Home
“Home is not a place it’s a feeling”
This is one of my favorite home quotes because it’s true for everyone. No matter how many times you move houses, the feeling of home remains since you are creating memories with your family and friends. For those who travel frequently, relocate for work, or like to switch up the city of choice for the year, you still make every place you stay in your home.
“Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave and grow old wanting to get back to”
When you’re young, there’s nothing you want more than to grow up and move out of your childhood home. But as you get older, the comfort and warmth of being home is so satisfying and calming.
“Home wasn’t built in a day”
As a new home owner it’s easy to get caught up in the thoughts of wanting to decorate and fill your new home up with new Knick knacks right away. But remember, your home isn’t built in a single day. It’s years and years of memories spent with family and friends, souvenirs brought back from traveling, and small things that remind you of stories that happened in the home that make a house feel like a home.
“There’s nothing more exciting than moving into a new home”
Moving homes can be refreshing for so many reasons. Maybe you simply wanted a change of location, maybe you wanted to wash away all the pain from yesterday, maybe you want to meet new people in the neighborhood. Whatever your reason is, moving into a new home is one of the most exciting feelings in the world.
“Disconnect to connect”
These days, it’s really easy to lose yourself in social media and staring at a screen. When you’re at home, disconnecting from the stressors of screens can really help you recharge your battery. Disconnecting from electronics while friends and family are over is also a great way to make new memories with those you love the most. This is one of the most important home quotes to live by in today’s day and age.
“There is something permanent, and something extremely profound in owning a home”
When you are the owner of a home, you take great pride in maintaining it. There is so much comfort in knowing that you own a large building and that you can decorate it however you want. If you want to build out the deck in the back, go for it! If you decide your paint scheme is totally off and want to go with an entirely new scheme, nothings stopping you!
“If you buy stuff you love, regardless of era or price, your home will be a true reflection of you”
It’s really easy to feel pressure in decorating you home a certain way based on TV shows and internet photos. But remember, as long as you love what you’re setting out on display, it will be a true reflection of you and your memories. And that’s something the people you know and love will appreciate.
