Our homes will never be really ours unless each piece reflects our taste and lifestyle. Magazines are great for sources, inspirations, and knowledge but if we pick everything in our homes based on the magazines we look at, then our places are going to be nothing else but a recollection of trends. Of course our choices will depend on our budgets as well; however, it’s better to build our homes slowly over time and invest on pieces that we genuinely love and are willing to live with for a long time. Since long gone are the days when rooms looked like period rooms, small pieces such as side tables are a great way to incorporate interest and individuality in our homes. Here is an excellent shopping suggestion of an eclectic selection of side tables of all styles for your delight. Enjoy!

I’m especially exited today because after four long living-with-rental-furniture-months we are finally getting our stuff tomorrow. It’s play time! I have a pretty clear idea of where things are going to go, but boy can’t that change? One thing that I’m certain though is the gallery walls I
want to create around the house. I’m a big fan of picture cluster walls and I’ve realized that when there is a lot of different ways to create them and/or to display them, each produces a different background. From a complete harmonious and balanced display, to careless and Bohemian one to a more eclectic grouping. Each and everyone translates the personal
lifestyle of their owners, as it should be. So I’ve been paying attention about how to create the best gallery walls or wall art composition as some call them. For creating a harmonious and balanced gallery wall is good to keep things simple and hang each picture at the same distance vertically and horizontally speaking. One thing to keep in mind is to keep all frames and matting in the same color.

things as art? right! Ikea. I was planning to buy things such as a mattress for our little one, a foot step for his sink and so on. Imagine my surprise when walking around I found very good looking prints! God, was I glad, there are an awful lot of empty walls in this house that will need to be filled. We got the second one below by Deborah Azzopardi for Lucas’s room, of which I will only tell you that it will have a bunch of stripes. Yeah!
