By simply making a couple of changes around your own house, it will feel like you live in a bigger space.  From The Sun’s Financial Diary, here’s one tip:

Use paint to make rooms seem larger. Lighter colors often make spaces look larger. If you want to lighten up your rooms but still wish to have some pizzazz, use bright or dark colors to create accent walls.

I’m a little embarrassed to admit that every room in my house except the kitchen/dining room have white walls.  Maybe it’s time to just get rid of some junk!

I hope that this weekend we can start going through our garage.  I think it’s time my daughter’s new Girl Scout leader inherits the troop’s camping supplies!
