Noticing the Little Things: How One Small Change Made My Home Feel Brighter

Lately, I’ve been paying attention to the little things. The way light spills through the window in the morning. The soft hum of my old desk lamp. And oddly enough, how certain rooms feel totally different at night depending on the kind of light they’re lit with.

I never used to think much about lighting. But after swapping just a few bulbs in my home, I realized how big a difference it makes. A warm bulb in the bedroom changed how I sleep. A brighter, cleaner one over the sink made dishes feel less like a chore.

If you’ve never explored how different lighting affects your space (and mood), I really recommend browsing https://50bulbs.com/. It's a simple, helpful site with info that actually makes sense even if you don’t know a thing about lumens or color temps. Start with one room. See how it feels.

Sometimes comfort isn’t a major renovation. Sometimes it’s just the right kind of light.
