“Home is where the heart is.” A house transforms into a home with its people, their feelings, and their togetherness. Each home speaks to the personality of its inhabitants.

If you are wondering why bugs and other pests pay your bathroom a visit, it’s because of all the moisture. And when we’re talking about the toilet seat, in particular, many people fail to clean it consistently and in detail.

A tidy house is indeed pleasing to our eyes, but only until the moment we find out that in the process of cleaning and taking care of our home, we make mistakes that can harm not only the objects around us but also ourselves.

Finding a correct color combination is one of the most important steps in designing a stylish and holistic look. This is why we’re offering you this cheat sheet, so you’ll always hit the bullseye when choosing clothes and interior decor.

When you live in a small place, it seems that it is harder to get the decor right, especially when it comes to the furniture in your living room. To get the right arrangement, you need to be cautious about measures, focal points, and the purpose of the space. But there are a lot of ideas you can follow to create harmonic compositions without even buying new items.

Making our well-being a priority is, by all means, the most important thing we can do. That’s, at least what Marie Kondo’s philosophy is all about and we have to say we don’t disagree with her. That feeling of joy and happiness is exactly what we are pursuing by tidying up each of our spaces. We’re trying to create an oasis of calm where we can get a little peace of mind. And with us, there are dozens of people that have shared their experiences online after they applied the knowledge of Marie Kondo when it comes to tidying up, organizing, and making your house as Zen as possible.

In 2019, the online furniture sales were as high as $200 billion. Everyone who has done renovations in their houses and apartments knows how much money even the most basic things can cost. The people from today’s compilation gave their old furniture a new life: they cleaned and polished and painted and decorated. And even the oldest tables and cabinets started to look fresh and new after a little bit of work.

Cleaning can be a boring activity but the results sometimes overcome all possible expectations. With the help of cleaning, you can learn that your garden table is not actually green, how 50-year-old dirt looks like, and even find a whole new room under piles of dirty clothes.

House plants are great decorations for almost any interior design. They make the place feel and look cozy and more alive. But you need to be careful: you run the risk of getting carried away with the process of buying plants and taking care of them. This is exactly what happened to the people in today’s compilation. Some of them realized that they had so many different flowers that they needed a separate room for all of them.

Even if cleaning isn’t your favourite pastime, the results always justify the effort made. That feeling that you’ve done your duty, when everything around you is shiny clean, can’t be beaten.

Often, when we decide to redecorate an apartment, we spend a lot of time trying to decide how to use the space correctly, which colors to choose, and what furniture to buy. And it becomes even harder if you have a small apartment that you want to make cozy and beautiful.
