What's your go-to snack during the day? 😋

If you wish finding your favorite foods wasn't so difficult, consider adding pull-out pantry shelves, canned food organizers, spice racks, or stackable airtight food containers. Try using a turntable to get rid of dead space and avoid storing food in front or behind other items that you can’t see.

Has your home office changed a lot since 2020? 👍

Working from home became a necessity for many Americans in 2020. As more and more companies embrace remote work in 2021—it’s believed at least 25% of Americans will be working from home this year—modern home offices will be an important home design trend. If you’re going to be working remotely permanently or frequently, it’s good to have space allocated specifically for your job so you can separate work from the rest of your home. Make the space comfortable yet professional, especially if you’ll need to conduct video calls.

What would the sign above your bed say? 🛏️

Because your bed is the focal point of your bedroom, hanging a statement piece of art over the bed can help tie your whole bedroom design and style together. Go with macrame art, a gallery of sentimental photos, an abstract print, or a rustic sign. This bedroom decorating idea can also bring some personality to your room.

Do you use feng shui design principles? 😇

Feng shui is making a comeback in 2021. This practice focuses on bringing balance and harmony into a home in order to invite good energy. For those currently feeling “closed in,” feng shui could make a huge difference. Use the energy map (or bagua) to understand where to feature the five elements—water, fire, earth, metal, and wood—in your home, as well as which colors and materials you should be using in specific rooms.

What's your typical wall decor? 🤔

Traditional gallery walls with photos are fun to show off your family or travels. You can also hang some baskets to create a boho basket wall. Pairing baskets that are different sizes and woven patterns will add visual interest in any room!

What do you like most about this bedroom? 💚

We love the lighting choices! When looking for bedroom lighting, think soft and gentle. Lights should provide enough visibility for moving around at night, but shouldn’t be so harsh that it’s hard to fall asleep with some of them on. Consider including a mix of different lighting fixtures—like recessed lights and table lamps, or wall sconces and a chandelier—so that you can adjust the level of brightness when you’re in your bedroom as well.

What's your best tip for keeping the pantry organized? 🤔

Use airtight plastic or glass containers to store dry pantry items like pasta, rice, cereal, flour, oatmeal, and sugar. Write the expiration date on the back of the container with a washable marker. Remove pre-packaged food items from larger boxes and store them in wicker or wire baskets. This can help you find items more easily and grab them on the go.

Do you prefer classic or modern style in your home? 🧐

A vanity and chair are classic pieces of bedroom furniture to consider incorporating in your room! Not only can vanities be used for storing hair accessories and jewelry, but they can also be used for getting ready in the morning. When picking out a vanity for your bedroom, look for vanities with plenty of storage space where you can keep beauty and hair products, and be mindful of the size of your room—you don’t want to choose something that will take up too much space and make your bedroom feel cluttered!

Do you have trouble keeping plants alive in your home? 😅

Plants are great for style and helping a room feel alive. Different plants have different amounts of sunlight, fertilizer, and water required to thrive. Talk with an experienced gardener if you're curious about what upkeep your houseplants require! We'll help you create the space for more green in your home.
