When you have a lot of furniture and stuff like I do, rearranging things is not something that I do very often. Usually, once something has found its place in our home, it will stay there for a long time. Furniture, especially. Now, knick knacks are different because they are small and can be changed out easily. We just rarely switch up where the furniture is. Back in December, I did move our dining room table and chairs over about a foot and a half towards the wall. It gave us much more walking space between the living room and the kitchen. That wasn't really rearranging, but it did provide a good sense of change.
Anyway, I moved a side table yesterday to balance out my living room area. Two reasons I did this. One is because where it was located blocked the bookcase and you couldn't really see into the bookcase. In addition to books, obviously, I keep other collectibles there and I'd like to be able to look at them. Also, it was a lighting issue. There was not much light in the middle of the room and having that table moved to the other side of the sofa will provide more centralized light, which I like. I had also planned on putting a floor lamp where the table had been but that didn't pan out. The lamp is broken, which I didn't realize. So, now I've got that on my shopping list for later on....no rush LOL
I really like having the table over there now. It's interesting to me how such a small change can make all the difference in how I feel about a room. I doubt that there will be many more changes simply because of spacing constraints. But, for now, I am enjoying the small change.
That is all
