The Organized Home Office

I have to admit the home office is most difficult to organize and get to a final stage of propping.  So much papers,  magazines,  loose little things.   The shredder is working full time at the moment and the recycling bins are bursting at the seams.  But we're getting there.  Luckily IKEA has good storage boxes such as the Pluggis and Kuggis series work well with my interiors and the ALGOT system that is already in place.  Their paper shop also has matte black file boxes.  You've heard me say this before -- it's always a work in progress…  These images are my inspiration.  Maja of Musta Ovi has a good eye, and of course IKEA is usually on top of the list as well.

What are you going to organize this weekend?  Happy organizing!

Bedroom Love in Brussels

The bedroom has been the main focus of late.  It had become a private dumping ground for about a year or so, and slowly clutter and unwanted, unattended things have been moving out.  Today I share this wonderful calming space that inspires me.  I love the minimal, modern approach.  The Kartell drawers serve as a perfect side table.  Oh how I wish I knew where to find that vanity table!  The wood stool adds warmth to this otherwise strict white space.

A bedroom should truly be one's sanctuary.  If at all possible do not have a modem or an office space in there.  Some folks say it is not advisable to even have a TV.  But in our home TV marathons cannot be avoided, and saturday mornings the bed becomes picnic grounds ( ! )  To each his own, I suppose.

Mono Greys, Green, Linen + Rustic Wood

Simply and utterly obsessed!  I cannot get over my recent love for greys and greens.  And style-wise I think I'm come to truly realize I am more drawn to the mix of vintage, icons, hints of industrial and weathered woods as opposed to staged and glossy.  Surely you can relate…

Hampton's in White with Black Accents

Loving the contemporary feel with natural accents and a black punch here and there.  My favorite corner is definitely the dining table with black arm chairs.  Do you have a favorite?
