Haute Style by Mary McGee: Home Is Where The Heart Is

As you get older you find out that TRUE happiness is not in how much you make or how big your house is or how fancy your car is. It is finding peace and joy and a calmness in your life that will soon become the most important thing to you. Your family are what matters to you, love is what matters to you. Things that are of quality not quantity.?

This brings me to why home is where the heart is. By contrast to what one might think, home for me ( yes, a designer) is about family which is the greatest value of all. Being a family means you are part of something very wonderful. It means you will love and be loved for the rest of your life no matter what. The home is where our family laughs, eats, cooks, prays, encourages one another and has fun. ?And so, home is not about the objects and material things that create it, it is about the people and love you fill it with. ?After all, life is too short?to be anything but truly happy.

Readers and clients always ask me what my dream house would be. People figure because I am a designer, I must want a big house filled with desinger fabrics and objects. No, this is not even close ! ?What I long for is a place to spend time with friends and family. Nothing big, just a ?small cabin tucked away in nature's beautiful bounty with lots of trees, greens, a lake, and my own organic garden! A special place that would be about making memories and appreciating the environment.?

So to all 50,000 of my blog readers - many of whom have written in to ask me what my dream home would look like, here it is! ?
