First talk:
How we define intimate spaces has everything to do with where and how we foster quiet and tranquility. Silence can be a hallmark for intimate spaces, and relationships within the home can respect and learn to promote these treasured assets! The speaker will share on how to identify which area in the home is clearly for communal conversation and interaction and how to encourage others to use it for that purpose, and where our focus on other parts of the home can create an environment that respects and honors the need for more quiet reflection and connection. The Master bedroom , a study, a child’s homework space-all of these can necessitate the need for quiet and tranquility, and the speaker will help clarify how we can usher in that sense of serenity.

Second Talk :
BRINGING BEAUTY INTO A ROOM: COLOR, TEXTURE, LIGHT.
CONSIDERING THE TASTES OF OTHERS.

To transform a house into an attractive home for her family is the task of every homemaker. Whether gifted with innate talent for the work or not, every woman can create rooms that are appealing and suitable for her family’s needs. After first considering the practical aspects of decorating a given room (its size, shape, architectural features, light, number of windows and doors, etc.), the speaker will then discuss how the elements of color, texture, and lighting can maximize the assets of a room and can also minimize its flaws. This conversation will focus on how decorating the space does not have to break the bank, but with some small changes , your intimate space can feel like a brand new room, and one the exudes warmth and tranquility!
