Everything inside of me craves peace and one of my deepest desires is to have peaceful home. A home that when my family walks in the door they can take a deep breath and feel the peaceful atmosphere. A home that doesn't create chaos but radiates peace. A home that even when there is noise -kids, dogs, life- we still feel peace. A home that is our haven.
Fall always feel like the perfect time to re-evaluate everything and work on creating a peaceful home. If you, too, desire a calm and peaceful atmosphere, even among the noises of life, here are 6 ways to create a peaceful home this fall.

Tidy your home. Whether you are a full time homemaker or also work outside the home, be intentional with setting aside time each day to tidy your home. It could be a couple of hours or just thirty minutes. On the days I have my grandsons over, I may only get thirty solid minutes of cleaning time. Where on the days I am alone, I can spend all day cleaning if I need to. Each morning as part of my get-ready routine, I spend ten minutes picking up our bedroom, master bathroom, and making our bed. This way even if I don't get to "clean" my bedroom, at least it gets picked up for the day. This makes a huge difference when it comes bedtime because I can unwind and relax far more in a tidy bedroom. Then, the kitchen and living room are my main focuses throughout the day. Even on days I don't get to deep clean -dust, vacuum, sweep, etc- my house can still be tidy. Every day the dishes get done, the counters get wiped down, the garbage gets taken out, and things get put in their place. It really helps to put things away as you go, instead of just setting things down anywhere.
