I love home decor. Always have and probably always will but I would lie if I wouldn´t admit that my home decor style has changed drastically over the years. I will also say it has gotten much better. 

For example I loved to paint and decorate every room in a different color. This was not only hard work but also pretty silly cause nothing fit together right and also if there is too much color you will get fed up pretty quick. You can not change decor throughout the rooms and it restricts you to get cute new things from time to time. 

I have changed up a few things lately and wanted to share my recent finds with you. Since sharing my redecorated living room last year I have only made a few very small changes. Amazon has a great selection of home decor. From coffee table books to plant supply to figurines, etc. there probably isn´t anyhting you won´t get.

Do you like to switch up your home decor from time to time? I mean not only seasonally like Fall and Christmas.

I love a festive table setting. If it is themed for a upcoming holiday even better !! Setting our table is so much fun for me and another way to get creative. 

Pip Studio has been a brand I have been collecting for quite some years now. Everytime there is a birthday or another opportunity to wish for something I mostly wish for a piece of their Love Birds collection. The color theme is fitting so great for Valentine´s Day I just couldn´t believe it. 

This gorgeous table setup was supposed to be for a Galentine´s Day coffee date in the afternoon with lots of delicious dougnuts and sweet treats but it would also work for tapas and bubbly or a full dinner with a glass of wine.

I love an organized space. There is just something so comforting about a tidied up and organized area in our home. I could stare at it for hours. Yes I am definitely weird in that way. 

I have already shared the girl´s decor so for today´s post I wanted to share how I organized their clothes and also other stuff like medicine, diapers and so on.

Let´s start with the closet. It is the Pax from Ikea and I have just customized it for our purposes. I got two clothes rails, one for Emilia and one for Helena to hang all of their dresses, shirt and overalls. 

The shelves are for baskets where I put the girl´s clothes in like socks, bows, onesies and pants. They are still small and all of their stuff is folded and fits in the baskets. The black labels are from amazon and easy to assemble. To add a little more aesthetics I added the golden lettering. 

About the baskets. I have searched up and down to get 4 in a row but I just could not find any that matched my needs so I went with 3 big and 1 small.

The big chest on top of the closet is for Emilia´s Summer clothes which still fit. It is a great storage option as well as a cute decor piece.

The cute boxes under the diaper changing table are from Ikea as well and they hold bathing suits and swimm diapers. 

In the drawers are diapers, wipes and changing pads.

3 Tips on how to avoid killing your indoor plants…

I truly have become a plant lady over the years. If you took a look in my living room about 10 years ago you would not find a plant at all and at best some dried up ones on the balcony. I have gone through trial and error and I think I can finally keep the plants I have in my home alive.

There really is no witchery to it. For me it is following the rules and plan which has kept my plants alive. Of course I have lost some down the road but I have never had indoor plants as long as I had my current ones.

How to keep your indoor plants alive

Stick to a watering schedule

Now during Winter times your plants won´t need as much water as during the heat of the Summer months (at least ours don´t cause we do not pump up the heat like crazy indoors – this might be different for everyone). I water all of the plants once a week and let the orchids and the succulents sit in the sink with clear cold water for about an hour. 

Dust the leaves once a month

This has been a total game changer in my opinion. Plants absorb sun light and all their needed nutritions through their leaves so if they are super dusty they can not successfully „breeze“ and get worse over time. You would not believe how much dust leaves are collecting. A soft microfiber cloth is all you need and it is reusable.

Location, location, location

For your indoor plants this isn´t as important as for real estate but I would at least put them somewhere near their desired location and not in the opposite direction. 

 

As a bonus you can add some fertilizer to the potting soil every once in a while.
