]]> How has your experience been following the recent stay-at-home orders? Now that you’ve gotten the opportunity to spend more time than usual in your Plano apartments this year, do you feel like it could use a bit of change? There are lots of creative ways you can change your apartments up so that it feels like you’re in a new space, or at the very least, refreshed in some way.

Here are some tips on how you can make use of new décor for your apartment:

1.       Change Up the Theme- It’s important to come up with a theme, or at least the ESSENCE of what you’d like your apartment to have. When you’re home, is your goal to feel relaxed, energized, or both? If you want to feel relaxed, use more earth tones, and get things like succulents and incense (if your building allows this) to feel as though you’re more grounded. If you want to feel more energized, bring in some color and use either a citrus-type or spicy kind of air diffuser so that your senses are awakened.

2.       Add Your Personal Touch- People underestimate the power of little accessories in your home that can truly give it some character. If you’re drawing a blank on this one, think about getting the following things: a wall clock, a movie poster, a record player, a decorative candle, pillows for your couch, and more if you go to the home section of Amazon.com. It’s very important that you do all your shopping online!

3.       Add Some New Furniture- Right now is a great time to shop for new furniture online or on different apps, like OfferUp, where people are trying to get rid of quality things in order to get more money. Add a new chair or desk to your apartment in order to accentuate the new vibe you’re going for.

That wraps it up in terms of tips for new décor for your Plano apartments. If you have any tips, please share in the comments below.

]]> When it comes to decorating one’s apartments, people usually think of the visual. They think of paintings, couches, color schemes, wallpaper, curtains, and a plethora of other decorations that are going to help them create something that they feel is a home. However, to make the most out of your Plano apartments, you can go a step further than that by indulging in your other senses. Here are some fragrances that could truly add some happiness to your Plano apartments:

 

1.        Gardenia

2.        Lavender

3.        Scented Geraniums

4.        Indoor Citrus

5.        Orchids
 

Which of the flowers appeals the most to you? Which is the most available and convenient for you to purchase? You could probably score some of these flowers at one of Plano’s small markets or farmer’s markets.

The thing about getting flowers for your apartment is that they add an accent in the mood and the overall vibe that you’re going for. This is a great opportunity for you to get creative. For instance, if you want something soothing and relaxing, opt for lavender or gardenia. If you want something that’s going to be a bit more stimulating because perhaps you work from home, then try something citrus-like.

What sort of fragrances do you feel your apartment needs? Before you purchase flowers and leave them out, be sure your roommates (if you have any) are okay with them and don’t have any bad allergies and just a general aversion towards them.

The beauty of living in Plano is that you get to customize it how you want to truly make it feel like a home. How will you make the most out of your Plano apartments so that they truly feel like an oasis for you to recharge and be the best version of yourself that you possibly can.

]]> In the early 1840s, history was made when the city of Plano was discovered by European settlers. Though it wasn’t called Plano then, we could only imagine their hopes and dreams for the sizable patch of West-Texas land. The city was officially incorporated in 1873, and by 1874 Plano had 500 residents. Now that number is well above 285,000. We believe Plano is more than its name, it’s a wonderful place to live, work and play. We’re sharing some of what makes Plano a great place to live.
 

You Can Always go Downtown

Though Downtown Plano is home to a vibrant arts community, it wasn’t always that way. Not long ago, Downtown Plano was a neglected patch of retail space, almost forgotten by the residential development happening around it. It wasn’t until the 1980s that Downtown Plano started its evolution into a fun, thriving district. In 2007, downtown merchants came together to organize a nonprofit that is preserving the arts, culture, and history of Downtown Plano. We love to spend the weekend downtown. One of our favorites is ZaLat Pizza. They make their dough and pizza sauce in house and use only the freshest ingredients. If you want something European, check out Jorg’s Cafe Vienna; they serve German and Austrian food in a cozy, old-world style restaurant.

Nature is Calling, Don’t Let it Go to Voicemail

Now is the best time to get out and get into the wilderness. Even if that wilderness is just a beautiful park or preserves in Plano. The beauty of these places is that they’re accessible for anyone! Take your grandmother or grandchild, they suit any age range. One of the best places to escape city life is the Arbor Hills Nature Preserve. This park has walking paths, hiking trails, a playground, and so much more. Go and get lost for a few hours!
