My Covid corner in The Washington Post

Our "Covid corner" mini-makeover was recently featured in The Washington Post! About a year ago we put up a shelf that I had bought years ago from an antique shop in VA and promptly buried it under the most unsightly collection of Covid paraphernalia. I reached a breaking point and it all had to go. I needed beauty to welcome me home, not reminders of the pandemic.

By now we all have a rhythm down for what we need to keep us protected. You too might have a hideous Covid corner. Since Covid is pretty much a part of life for now, it's time to do better with how we store it all. In my case, we realized that we weren't using disposable masks, gloves, and hospital-grade wipes. We used up and gave away some of that. We each keep hand sanitizer in our cars and in our bags so didn't need it at the door. NONE of this needed to be welcoming us home at the front door anymore.

It was a joy to clear the Covid clutter and showcase some favorite items: a Lakshmi statue I bought in Bali, a selenite sphere from an estate sale ($1!), and a gorgeous chunk of amethyst from a client. Pictured too in the @washingtonpost article is an antique brass bowl that now holds my masks. Big improvement, huh?

Do you have a Covid corner that is in need of a makeover? Do you have one you're pleased with? Please share below!
