    Office Inspiration: Office Spaces that Stand Out

    Office Inspiration

    At times we can get carried away with what we want in our home office. Whether it’s tons of storage or inspiring photo’s all over the wall, it can get a little overwhelming. A simple office space leaves your mind clutter free and ready to create a new masterpiece.

    If you are a naturally creative person, you know that most times you don’t need much to be inspired! Sometimes it’s the blank wall that makes our mind imagine what should be there so we can create it.

    Maybe the room itself doesn’t even matter. Maybe your view outside the window is what you need to get your brain moving.
    Stick to the basic necessities. A chair, a table, a plant, a light, and a calendar may be all you really need.

    Home Office Inspiration

    Some times we all need a little inspiration – and for me, that couldn’t be more true. I’ve been feeling particularly unmotivated and I can’t really put my finger on why.  When the weather is beautiful all I want to do is be outside, so that’s understandable, but otherwise, I’m not sure where my malaise is coming from.
    Hopefully you’re not in the same boat, but regardless I hope you enjoy these beautiful home offices!

    Creative Apartment Ideas for Space

    Apartments can be tricky to decorate. Most apartment rooms duel as more than one functioning room. Often, you’ll find it’s an open floor plan which can cause an issue for dividing the rooms. There is usually a lack of storage too! Here are some creative spaces I found utilizing different ways to make the most of your small apartment.
    Most apartments don’t have great closet space. Making a closet space can be simple! Use a sheet to create a wall and hang up a tension rod and maybe a shelf to utilize part of your room as a closet.
    Most apartment kitchen’s never have enough storage. A rolling island is perfect for storage and counter top space!
    I have seen many apartment rooms that are only big enough for a bed! Ditch the bulky frame and headboard and get creative. It’s amazing how you can create more storage and make the room feel bigger at the same time.
    52m² répartis entre deux pièces presque égales, une belle cuisine, et une décoration d’intérieur reprenant les principes de la décoration scandinave, tant au niveau des revêtements de murs, de sols que du choix des meubles, de quoi plaire à la majorité...:
    Pair down to the necessities. Too much clutter can make a room feel smaller. Find a happy balance between necessities and decor.
    Enjoy it! More space sometimes just means more junk, more cleaning, and more on your to do list! Living with less can be fun.

  • Making Cozy Comfortable

    Making Cozy Comfortable

    How can you make a room that’s labeled as “cozy” be comfortable? With minimal space and few options to fill that space, how to make it look like you actually want to spend time in there?
    Here are a few tips I have for making that transition from tiny to lovely.
    6 Gorgeous Small Bathroom Ideas That Will Have You At Hello!
    Take the room you have and add simple touches to make it feel like a home. A plant, a rug, a picture. Start small.
    Dedicate space for what you love. We spend so much time making our home look like magazines but if it isn’t what you want in your home or isn’t useful, don’t buy it! Buy what you love and what you need.
    Buy smart. One piece of furniture that you love, that fits the room is better than piecing together multiple pieces that may or may not work. Make smart choices that leave you with the best square footage and still comfy. 
    Be creative. Find pieces that have duel purposes and that provide you with more options, but also add character to the room.
    Small spaces can be fabulous, as you’ll see in these tiny balcony garden spots with moods that range from city sophistication to pure Zen.
    Keep it clean and fresh. Fresh flowers and clean blankets really can make a difference.
    How are you making your cozy space more comfortable?

  • Decorating small spaces doesn’t have to be hard!

    Decorating small spaces doesn’t have to be hard!

    Small spaces require a different way of thinking but it doesn’t have to be difficult.
    Living in a small space? Here are 11 great ways to maximize and decorate tiny spaces.
    Make items have duel purposes! Storage and seating? Looks like a win win to me!
    Make it cozy. There’s something about a comfortable space that makes you love it no matter the size.
    Utilize every nook and cranny! A closet might be better used as an office instead of storage space.
    intentional use of limited space is the core of small space design.
    Your decor can be functional! Just because it’s something that you use daily, doesn’t mean it can be pretty and on a shelf for all to see.
    Get creative with the square footage you do have. Make items that can be put away, hidden, or stored but easily accessed.
