As we continue to work through our cozy life reset this year, keep in mind that creating a cozy life will look different for each family.

The free Make Your Home Cozy printable below will help you think through what a cozy home looks and feels like to you. Small changes can yield big results!




Make Your Home Cozy

The free download includes three basic tips I believe anyone can use to make home a bit more cozy.

There is also a worksheet page to help you think through how you want your home to look and feel. There are no right or wrong answers as you will see. The “right” answer is making your living space into a home that brings greater peace and joy to you and your loved ones. How that looks may vary widely among everyone reading this.

The key is finding what works for your situation.

More Freedom in Your Cozy Life

Find greater freedom, peace, and joy by prioritizing your life.

In this ebook mini-course, Sallie shares from her own experiences and helps you think through your need to say “no” when it is necessary and appropriate.

    Oh my gosh, I am so with you on the lighting! I have always preferred lamps with incandescent lightbulbs vs overhead lights, fluorescent lights or the new lightbulbs (which seem fluorescent to me). Another one of my quirks is that I really don’t like having lights on during the day, and only do so when it’s really too dark to see much.

      Hi Claire,

      I think lighting makes SUCH a difference in a home. Natural light and lamps will make a home feel completely different than overhead lights.

      Plus for kids who are easily overstimulated or sensitive, it’s way better than harsh artificial lights.

      Thanks for the comment!

    Totally agree @ real lights – aka – incandescent! Also, “artificial lights” – aka- all the kinds that aren’t incandescent… are usually the lights shown in movies of stark/scary/sad scenes: prison, poverty, the communist state, criminals, etc…. 😉

      Oh, that’s a really great observation. Why would we want something in our home that is used to portray negativity?

For 20+ years, I’ve been writing about following Jesus Christ and making choices based on what is true, beautiful, and eternal. Through purposeful living, self-employment, and homeschooling, our family has learned that freedom comes from a commitment to thoughtfully examine all of life and think for yourself.
