The Happy Home: 5 Living Practices To Ensure a Sweet 2021

In two months, it will have been a year since quarantine began. This means that we’ve spent almost a full year indoors, being acquainted and re-acquainted with our homes. For many homeowners, the quarantine has been a time to renovate and redecorate—it’s important, after all, to make sure that our homes remain clean, cozy, and conducive to productivity now that we all have been working from home.

With the new year often comes resolutions and goals across different aspects of our personal lives, from the way we eat to the way we keep our spaces fresh and welcoming. Our home and the environment around us can affect our mood for the day, so making the most out of these spaces is incredibly important. Below, we round up five living practices to ensure a sweet year ahead, coupled with furniture selections from Serena & Lily to get you started. 

Have breakfast in bed.

Start your mornings with a hearty breakfast in bed, aided by the Oliana tray and beautiful glasses and coasters. 

Take a break. 

Don’t forget to take breaks in between tasks! Lounge in these dining chairs without feeling guilty about your post-breakfast and pre-lunch snack. 

Bake with the fam.

On weekends, gather your kids for a fun baking session in style—shop these counter stools to complement your kitchen island. 

Treat yourself to happy hour.

Go ahead, take a drink. You deserve it. Serve your happy hour cocktails from these stylish bar carts. 

Bask in the outdoors. 

In the new normal, having guests over means making use of your garden space and wearing masks plus social distancing. Check out these outdoor dining chairs to help you get the job done.
