When I first began writing about interiors I struggled to find my voice amid the multitude of aspirational books, blogs, and magazines offering tips and tricks, DIY tutorials, craft projects, and trend reports. While I loved all of those things, I soon realized that I was interested in the essential ingredients that make a space both look and feel good at the same time. How to efficiently harness the magic that makes a house feel like a home, without spending a lot of money. I’ve learned that what most homes are missing isn’t a beautiful sofa or the perfect decor: it’s simply the intention to make them feel special. That is why my company, HausWitch, was created. HausWitch is about giving people the tools to heal their spaces, love their homes, and save their money. This book is one of those tools. It is a spell book of interior alchemy. It is about joining the astral plane and the material world to help you transform the energy in your home. Being fully comfortable in your home is a legitimately important part of self- care and is central to the HausWitch mission. But I believe there are two types of comfort: the kind that helps you to relax, restore, and align with your higher self, and the kind that isolates you from the world around you, lulling you into complacency. That second kind of comfort comes from things like unlimited cable channels, screen culture, and cheap consumer goods. Now, don’t get me wrong; I’m no stranger to the luxury of ordering things online from the comfort of my couch. But it is when you are deeply connected to your space that you feel truly comfortable within it. My goal for this book is to help you to develop that connection in an authentic and meaningful way.
