Katie T’s Farmhouse Home Fun Fact #18
Fun fact time! This is a new section I’m including on my blog posts so my readers can get to know me on a personal level!
So, for my 18th fun fact, I want to share that I shop for organic over conventional.
Not for all foods, due to availability and price, but if I can help it, I will lean towards organic any day!
The Proper Tools for a Solid Prayer Life
To start this post, I want to share the importance of having a solid prayer life for the feminine Christian homemaker.
Having a quality prayer life is the foundation of everything else in life.
We can do nothing without God. But yet, it’s so easy to fall into the trap of believing that we are fully self-sufficient.
To avoid this type of self-centered ideal, it’s important to recognize and appreciate all that God has done for us and continues to do for us.
The way to do this is to have an active prayer life. Preferably in the morning, as it nourishes your mind and soul for what the day brings.
I discuss 3 ways to invite God into your morning routine above, but I like to start with a daily reading from Sarah Young’s book Jesus Calling. This sets the tone and inspires me to walk with God for the rest of the day.Â
Quality Cookware for Nourishing Meals
A feminine Christian woman also understands the importance of utilizing quality cookware for nourishing meals.
By investing in the proper tools for cooking and baking, she can create meals that bring her family together and strengthen the bond they share.
Cooking with quality cookware ensures that meals are prepared with precision and care while enhancing the overall dining experience for everyone at the table.
Some examples of quality cookware include opting for glass over plastic, stainless steel pans over non-stick, or ceramic over aluminum bakeware.
To take it a step further, a grain mill is an ideal kitchen tool that enables you to make your flour at home. You’ll find that traditional flour at the store removes nutrients and adds preservatives to give it a longer shelf life.
You’ll also need jars for storage purposes. The more you move along in the homemaking journey, the more you’ll realize that the premade food in stores is filled with unnecessary ingredients.
Making meals and prepping food allows you to have control of the food you put in your body. This means you’ll need jars to store food, whether it’s for chicken broth, spices, condiments, snacks, etc.
Eco-Friendly Cleaning Supplies for a Healthy Home
The 3rd out of the 7 homemaking essentials a feminine Christian woman should have is adequate cleaning supplies.
Eco-friendly cleaning supplies tend to be natural and suitable for a healthy home environment.
This means opting for natural soups or making them on your own. It also means investing in the quality tools that will get the job done, like a high-rated vacuum cleaner.
In addition, the quality of the air you breathe is an important focus. While plants provide a decorative element, many of them clean the air we breathe.
New Meaning to the Slow Living Aesthetic
Transitioning to a new meaning to the slow living aesthetic emphasizes the importance of intentional choices and sustainable practices in every aspect of homemaking.
This approach encourages the feminine Christian woman to focus on quality over quantity, mindfulness over busyness, and simplicity over excess.
By embracing slow living, she can create a peaceful and harmonious home environment that reflects her values and beliefs.
Having the proper areas in the home for this intentional way of living is an extension of deliberately choosing this type of lifestyle.
This means having an area like a cozy reading nook with a comfy accent chair can make or break how a feminine woman cultivates a slower pace of life.Â
Organizational Tools for a Clutter-Free Space
Embracing the 7 homemaking essentials means that organizational tools are a must.
Whether you choose bins, furniture with additional storage, or even incorporating a label system, being organized will help maintain order within the home.
Implementing storage solutions, decluttering methods, and effective organization systems creates a serene environment that promotes mindfulness and simplicity.
These tools streamline your daily tasks while cultivating a sense of calm and order in your home, allowing you to focus on what truly matters.
Materializing the Concept of Living Within Your Means
To materialize the concept of living within your means, it is important to approach homemaking with a mindset of intentionality and purpose.
This means being mindful of your purchases, prioritizing quality over quantity, and making thoughtful decisions about what you bring into your home.
A good way to materialize living within your means may mean creating a budget and tracking your expenses.
I like to use Wallet, which I discuss more in-depth in the article above.Â
By focusing on what truly adds value to your life and reducing unnecessary expenses, you can create a living space that reflects your values and beliefs as a feminine Christian woman.
Less is More when Needing to be Flexible
In our fast-paced world, flexibility is crucial when it comes to homemaking.
Unexpected events, changes in schedules, and shifting priorities can all disrupt our carefully planned routines.
That’s why adopting a “less is more” mindset can help you stay agile and adaptable.
This also means that staying organized and having a tangible schedule will help avoid any overlap in planning and scheduling. Calendars and planners are a great way to stay organized in this way.
