Do the apartment therapy 8-week home cure

I keep starting with week one, and then some major life catastrophe will happen, and I’ll never make it to week two. I LOVE the book though, and the few changes I have made so far have been for the the better – I am starting to love my home more.

I checked out the book from the library today (I would have bought it, but my local bookstore didn’t have it!) and this cure looks AMAZING. I bought a home with my boyfriend in July, and we haven’t really decorated at all. (Our old apartment was the same way – it never seemed “finished”, but owning a house has motivated me!)

Our house is 900 square feet, so it is “apartment-sized” – it is actually a bit smaller than our apartment was. (We live in STL, NOT NYC.) It needs a lot of help with clutter, we need furniture (everything is stacked on cardboard boxes), and our kitchen is big enough, but not well-designed, so cooking at home is HARD. But I feel so energized by the book – I think it will really help us!
