We can hardly believe the end of 2023 is right around the corner, but ya know what they say—time flies when you’re havin’ fun! At Evolve Companies, our mission is to keep growing so that we can help you do the same. 2023 was BIG, and we can’t wait for what’s to come next year.

Ways to Simplify Your Apartment Home in 2021

Simplify your space to evolve

Happy New Year, friends! With 2020 in the rearview, we at Evolve know now more than ever how exciting a new chapter is for this next year. After spending so much time at home this past year, we learned how important it is to create our own personal oasis right where you are. In 2021, we’re looking forward to simplifying our space in order to create more room to evolve! Check out these 5 ways to simplify your apartment home in 2021. Get ready to grow with us!

Start with bite-sized pieces

Keep it small at first! Start with just five minutes a day. Toss out all of the junk mail and random papers that always seem to pile up for no reason. Sometimes the extra layer of clutter that coats the surface can keep us from seeing what’s underneath that needs to go! This is why we love starting with trash and smaller items that you don’t have to think too hard about letting go of.

Keep surfaces clear

We love this idea, particularly in the kitchen. Keeping all of your surfaces clear allows you to figure out what you actually use on a daily / regular basis. Be intentional with the items you display. Evolve communities feature beautiful solid-surface countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms that want to be seen!

Clean out your closets

Ah, the closets! These can feel pretty overwhelming at times—particularly if this is where all of your extra items end up. Try starting with your least intimidating closet. This might be your coat or linen closet. We love pulling out everything, so we have a really clear look at what’s there. Have your trash bag or empty box ready for all of the things you want to donate. And don’t be afraid to be ruthless! Now is your chance to be honest about what you use or wear, and what you don’t. We’re big fans of using cute rattan bins or baskets for additional storage and organization!

Does it bring you joy?

evolve simplify blog chair in living room

We love this classic Marie Kondo question. It’s particularly helpful for the more decorative items sprinkled throughout your apartment home. You may not even notice some of them are there anymore because they have been for so long! This is when it’s super important to check in with each item—ask yourself if it brings you joy, or if it’s just there? If there’s no joy, let it go.

Learn to say no!

We’re all about boundaries, baby! When you’ve simplified your apartment home, learning to say no is the best way to keep your space exactly the way you want it. Accumulating random decor or clothes you’ll never wear will put you back at square one. Keep the things that match your personality and needs, and only add new items when they feel right to help keep your space simple and intentional.

How are you simplifying your apartment home?

Give yourself space to evolve in 2021 and clear out the things you don’t need! We’d love to see how you’re simplifying your apartment home this year. Be sure to tag us on IG to show us how you #evolvethewayyoulive.

Quirky Christmas Tree Themes to Spice Up Your Holiday Tradition

Spice up your holiday tradition

Here at Evolve, we love making life fun, and we want your home to feel like your very own permanent vacation—particularly around the holidays. It’s hard to believe Christmas is just around the corner, but that means it’s the perfect time to get festive. If you’re ready to create a cozy cinnamon-scented oasis this season, check out these 6 quirky Christmas tree themes to spice up your holiday tradition. Because let’s be honest, we could all use a little extra holiday cheer this year!

Woodland Wonderland

If you’re a lover of earth tones and anything woodsy, this is such a fun way to incorporate even more nature into your home. We love adding sweet woodland creatures like owls, foxes, deer, and bears. Forget using run-of-the-mill ball ornaments and instead go for different sized pinecones. Your tree can take on a freshly frosted look like this beauty from Tuft & Trim, or maybe use more reds and oranges.

Citrus Tree

We’re all about creating a citrus tree of your own this season—I mean, who doesn’t love fruit?! There are so many ways you can you really make this your own. Use your favorite citrus fruit as inspiration for the entire design, choose citrus based on the décor throughout the rest of your home, or mix and match with every citrus you can find! This California-inspired citrus tree from Sisoo is one of our favorites!

Brighter is Better

When you’re feeling really frisky, try stepping outside the box with a white tree as a fun alternative to the traditional trimming. Brighten it up with your favorite bold colors or use a color palette that’s already in your home. This modern take on tradition is a great way to evolve your holiday décor and embrace quirkiness! The simplicity of this gem from Dream Green DIY adds the perfect pop to the space.

The Traveler’s Tree

One of the things we’ve missed most about 2020 is traveling! There’s truly nothing like exploring new places and experiencing different cultures. That’s why we love the idea of bringing all of your travels to life on your tree. Whether you’ve collected ornaments along the way or want to create your own inspired by your favorite places, there are so many ways you can get creative! Check this one out from Happy to Wander and get some ideas for making your own!

Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice

If you’ve got a sweet tooth, this is the perfect way to spice up your Christmas tree this year. Create a Candyland-inspired winter wonderland complete with lots of bright colors, all of your favorite candy, and miniature gingerbread houses. Get lost looking at all of the sweet ornaments on this sugar-filled favorite from Petite Haus.

Keep It Classic

vintage christmas tree theme evolve blog

Keep things classic this year with vintage ornaments from the 1950s and ‘60s. Try starting with a small silver tree to create the perfect foundation for your classic décor. Check out your local antique stores for some bright, vintage ornaments, and top it all off with a slew of tinsel and bright gold star!
