Whether you’re repainting a wall, covering a chair or choosing a mirror for over the mantel, your home notebook will be indispensable.
Walking past a store, you spot the perfect chair for your bedroom—and it’s on sale! But will it complement or clash with your bedspread and curtains? If you have a home notebook, you won’t have to guess. You’ll know!
What’s a home notebook? It’s simply a place where you organize the home essentials: things like floor plans, room, door and window measurements, ceiling heights and architectural details. It’s also a good place to keep samples from each room: fabric and carpet swatches, paint chips, wallpaper scraps and the finish on your hardwood floors. For times when you need inspiration, you can create pockets in which to stash photos from catalogues and magazines or favorite articles you’ve printed.
And with this information close at hand, you’re almost guaranteed having everything you need to confidently grab that bargain chair, repair a wall or just give a room a fresh, new look. Once you start using a home notebook, you’ll wonder how you lived without it!
