NEW HOME TIPS: HOW TO PRIORITIZE SPENDING | Honest Conversations about Wants versus Needs

Wanting to decorate your new home is so exciting and fun, but it can be so expensive. Having a priority list of what you want, what you need, and a plan of how to get it all done can help!
There are so many things that I want to do now that we're in the home, but it's not a reality for me to get them done all at once. Learning which pieces need to come first, what means the most, and what can wait (even when I don't want to be patient!) are all things I've been working on recently, and I hope can help you too.

I’d really love to know what you’re up to. How is the house? I’m about to move into a new build and your videos have been fantastic! But this is the last one

Ugh, same boat! Just moved in last month and it’s so tempting to buy everything at once! Pacing myself has been quite a challenge. Trying to rein in some pretty grand ideas 😔

It's so hard! I'm slowly getting there, patience is not my strong suit

[@fantasticworld7485]
