  • ◈ I made a quick trip to IKEA today because I spotted a sofa/daybed that could fit right into my bow-window. I still have to work out a few things before picking furniture but, I feel like I'm making progress here! Also, I took the opportunity to buy baskets to put under our dining room bench and I'm pretty happy with the result! I think it kind of finishes the bench better and also optimizes the space. What do you think? ◈⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #kismetcheckoutmyhouse #howwedwell #heyhomehey #yourdecorstyle #homewithrue #showmeyourstyled #loveyourhabitat #mycovetedhome #inmydomaine #myinspiredhouse #showemyourstyled #makehomematter #peepmypad #mybhg #nesttoimpress #realhomes #myhomethismonth #currentdesignsituation #myspaceanddecor #mystylishplace #spotlightonmyhome #myperiodhomestyle #cornerofmyhome #mygorgeousgaff #mystylishspace #sorealhomes #mycreativeinterior #myhouseandhome #myinteriorstyletoday #myhousemadehome⠀
  • ◈ In 1 month and a half, it'll be 1 year that we've moved This makes me realize how time goes by so fast. I thought that by now the apartment would have be finished and yet there are so many things that I still need to work on. The main thing is probably the living room that has remained untouched since the moving. ⠀ Although, the fact that we've lived here for almost 1 year is giving me the motivation to tackle this project. Today I put together a little moodboard for the living room to help me out in this process. Check out my story to see the living room as it is now ◈ #myinspiredhouse #mykindredabode #simpliving #smpliving #mydomaine #pocketofmyhome #UOhome #realhomes #actualinstahomes #interiormilk #currenthomeview #makehomeyours #homesohard #makehomeyours #lovewhereyoudwel #myoklstyle #prettylittleinteriors #myeclecticmix #myinteriorvibe #newinteriorsontheblock #myhometrend #howyouhome #rshome #myhousebeautiful #ggathome #makehomematter #ourtruehaven #luxuryinteriorsonabudget #stylemyhome #instainteriors
  • ☞ I'm really happy about this new mirror in the entryway, so I felt inspired to share a few tricks I've learned along the way to help you pick the right mirror for your entryway. Everyone's setting is different, so what works for my entryway won't necessarily work for yours. These tips are designed to help you take into account every parameter of your specific situation.

  • ♧ This watering can is probably the most useful tool I bought in a while. Found it at my local flea market for like 5 CHF. Its thin beak is very efficient when it comes to watering small potted plants because you can go in between the leaves and reach for the soil easily. If you are looking for one like that, I think I saw one at IKEA recently. ♧⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⚬⠀ ⚬⠀ ⚬⠀ ⚬⠀ ⚬⠀ ⚬⠀ ⚬⠀ ⚬⠀ ⚬⠀ #abmplantlady #plantgang #botanicalpickmeup #urbanjunglebloggers #dsfloral #botanical #plantsofinstagram #vscoplants #plantgoals #plantspiration #allthingsbotanical #plantpower #flowerpower #greenbeauty #botanicalalchemy #plantmedicine #vibrationalmedicine #plantalchemy #plantsmakepeoplehappy #jungalowstyle #plantlady #ihavethisthingwithplants #myplantaesthetic #plantlife #plantsarefriends #plantstagram #plantgang #flowerstagram #indoorplants
  • ◈ Today I take you through the entire process of how we've approached the conception of our IKEA KITCHEN. I talk about the tools I used to help me figure this out, what it costs us roughly and a lot of pictures, before and after too! As always, link in bio. I know that this kitchen has been done for a few months now, but as I wanted this article to be so perfect I never felt in a good enough mood to write it. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Eventually, I realized that it's better done than not so I wrote it! And it's out! It's not perfect but it's here. ⠀⠀ Please let me know what you think! ◈⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ #kitchenreno #kitchensofinstagram #kitchensofinsta #kitchensofig #interiordesign #kitchendesign #kitcheninspo #kitcheninspiration #kitchenremodel #kitchen #kitchenrenovation #kitchenreno #kitchentransformation #kitchentrends #ikeakitchen #myeclecticmix #realhomes #galleykitchen #smallkitchen #kitchendecor #ikeaatmine #tinykitchen⠀⠀ #kismetcheckoutmyhouse #howwedwell #heyhomehey #yourdecorstyle #homewithrue #showmeyourstyled #loveyourhabitat #mycovetedhome ⠀⠀
  • ◈ So last weekend, we've finally hanged the mirror I've ordered and received 2 months ago... A beautiful mirror by Muuto. The glass is slightly tinted so I cannot see all my flaws (wrinkles and pimples) when I leave home. I hope this will help me get out quicker😅 What seduced me the most in this mirror was its sort of rounded shape which makes the entryway look smoother.⠀ ⠀ p.s. The wall in the back is not going to stay that color, I think it's a little too dark. And I'd rather have another tone (maybe a light green ?! ) What do you think?.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #diydecor #diyblogger #diyideas #diyprojects #diyhomedecor #homediy #myhomedecor⠀ #homestaging #homestagers #homestagingtips #eclecticinterior #homestagingworks #homestaginglovers #homestager⠀ #kismetcheckoutmyhouse #howwedwell #heyhomehey #yourdecorstyle #homewithrue #showmeyourstyled #loveyourhabitat #mycovetedhome #inmydomaine #myinspiredhouse #showemyourstyled #makehomematter #peepmypad #mybhg #nesttoimpress #realhomes ⠀
  • ◈ Saturdays are for relaxing and doing stuff you cannot do on weekdays. Today, I'm staying home catching up on my reading since I cannot do anything else because I've caught the flu... 😷 Well, that was predictable, slowing down after a big project has always that kind of consequence on my immune system...

  • ◈ It’s been two days since the re-opening and before sharing proper pictures of the restaurant, I wanted to show you these pictures I took a few hours before the re-opening. Looking at theme make me realize how small decor items can really bring a place together. ⁣ ⁣ At that point, I was able to read on people's face the fear of this not coming together. And I totally understand it because when you don't have the final picture in your head it can be hard to project yourself and see the potential of it all. ⁣ That's why it's so important to trust yourself otherwise you can easily get confused by everybody’s fears◈⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⚬⁣ ⚬
