I love Autumn, it's the season that just makes me so very happy. While many people view Spring as a time of renewal and growth, for me, Fall is the time of year that I feel moved to make changes in our environment, especially our home. Perhaps it's the feeling that we'll be spending much more of our time indoors in the upcoming months that moves me to bring fresh energy into our rooms. I envision our home to be warm and nourishing. I want it to be our haven of comfort in the cold of winter and the bustle of the holidays. So I've been spending some time the past few weeks moving things around, putting things aside and finding new homes for items whose time of usefulness has passed for us. Our dining room is the heart of our home. As well as being the place where our family shares our meals, it is also the place where the boys play the most. It holds the cabinet for art supplies, shelves for toys and my favorite part of the room, the Autumn Corner. As Ivan still steadfastly refuses to let me lazure the walls my favorite Waldorf Kindergarten colors (harumph!), I've dyed playsilks to use as backdrops. I actually made this bookshelf myself and I love that it now holds my boys playthings :) There is a story shelf with a few of our favorite wooden figures that the boys use to imagine tales of knights and wizards. The shelf below holds the household items, a machine and a basket of small playsilks to "sew" with and the knitted food for the play kitchen. On the opposite wall is the boys kitchen with our favorite pressed leaves hanging as a garland Another area of the dining room holds a small bookshelf to place toy baskets and a few art supplies The boys have enjoyed the new energy in the room. Matteo loves to sit and draw, Nico makes his imaginary skyscrapers with his blocks and Luca is always busy in the little kitchen. I really love that the room is the gathering place for our small tribe :). Happy Autumn to All!
