In most cases the "flinging" refers to the lightening up of items in our homes...... it is a time to clean house, maybe update and freshen things up. It is also a new opportunity to help someone else in the process.
Many times, we have clients in the Lighting Etc. showroom who are in the process of a remodel - so what exactly does that entail???? You may be updating your cabinets, appliances, hardware, lighting, etc. Our homes are a reflection of who we are, and that reflection can change over the years.... Also, if you have recently bought a pre-existing home, you may have fallen in love with the property itself and the construction of space, but it may not reflect your taste in the finishes and design elements used.
It is often that the items that we are replacing are still functional, but may just not be the design that we wish to have for our homes. Those functional elements can be a Blessing to someone else!!
A few years back we developed a relationship with Habitat For Humanity through their "ReStores". What exactly is a "ReStore"?
Habitat for Humanity ReStores are nonprofit home improvement stores and donation centers that sell new and gently used furniture, home accessories, building materials, and appliances to the public at a fraction of the retail price. Habitat for Humanity ReStores are proudly owned and operated by local Habitat for Humanity affiliates, and proceeds are used to build homes, community, and hope locally and around the world.
This is a perfect opportunity to "give back" - if you are in the middle of a remodel or planning one in the future - allow yourself the opportunity to Bless someone else - Instead of putting those old items at the curb - or attempting to sell them on Craig's List - donate them to the Habitat For Humanity ReStore!!!
Happy Spring Flinging everyone!!!
Thanks so much for the "read" - Have a Blessed Day! And we will Light It Up again soon!!
Be Blessed!!
