See what style best suit your taste, After you decide on the main ideas and style, it’s the time for colors. Pick the colors that makes you the happiest and most relaxed. For me I love The warm sunlight colors as well as white and beige so this was my general theme.

Tip #2

Tip #3

If You have A Small space and want to make the best out of it, use your pretty stuff for decoration. I displayed my yarn in the shelve as you see in the pictures. But you can use books or whatever pretty items you have to display!

Tip #4

If you Didn’t already buy some indoor plants! you have to! they add amazing positive energy to the place and you will love it when they grow new leaves. You may even develop a new very relaxing hobby which is taking care of plants and propagating them!

Tip #5

We all have items that are not so pretty to display, right? and many of us don’t have enough space in their closets too? to solve this problem I used the structure of my room. for example. I Have this protruding wall that prevent pushing my bed all the way to the wall. So I used this space to store some of my workout equipments and accessories! and I AGREE IT’S KIND OF MY WARM UP TO BRING IT OUT OF THERE 😀

Tip #6

As I said before, use your pretty items to display as decorations. You may also use pretty things to store your items and act as decorations too!

Finally Here is the before & after of The Ceiling lampshade.

My last Tip

Is to try to specify a spot for each task in your room/place! It make it less boring especially if you spend a lot of time in it. For me my desk is the place when I want to work on my website/blog or study. Obviously my bed is for sleeping and relaxing. My crochet corner is for crocheting and CHILLAXING. Finally I have an empty space in-front of my mirror at the center of the room where I do my pilates, Yoga and jumping rope workouts!

I hope I inspired you to do something pretty. And if I did! Please share it with me whether in the comments section bellow or on my Instagram.
