The Everyday Spruce Loaf Giveaway | Growing SpacesWhile the ethos behind #TheEverydaySpruce is firmly rooted in ideas rather than purchases, we’re not adverse to spending a few pennies in the pursuit of those small changes that can make a positive impact on your daily life.

I’ve really embraced the decluttering I wrote about back in February, and part of this process has been to properly evaluate my belongings – choosing to keep only those things that ‘spark joy’. One thing that I’ve really noticed is that by really looking at my possessions with fresh eyes, I’ve realised I live with some things that are crying out to be replaced. These aren’t high-cost items but they are things that I use every single day – they work hard and I’m guilty of not valuing them enough.

You’d be hard-pushed to find a bowl that isn’t chipped, but this is what we’re using right at the beginning of our day. I think (especially after Sarah-Lou’s thoughts on improving her mornings) that we should make a better start with decent crockery. So I’ve binned the chipped bowls (or kept them for houseplants) and replaced them with these Wobbler ceramic cereal bowls from Loaf (*exciting giveaway klaxon* – keep reading!). A small outlay to give our breakfasts together the value they deserve.

Things that really belong in the bin and I should buy new – for me, I’m thinking of… knickers (nothing fancy, but frayed elastic really isn’t acceptable), my pot of under eye concealer, the cushion on my office chair, my hairbrush and our cutlery drainer.
These everyday, practical things are used so often and become so ingrained in our routine that they become almost invisible, but I really believe that updating them details can have an uplifting effect. Sometimes money can buy a little bit of happiness.
