7 Ways to Get Inspired For The Holidays

Tiptoeing in to say … it’s less than 8 weeks until Christmas. I know! I can’t believe it. But I do not like to rush the holidays so I’ve already started planning. Mentioning Christmas on Halloween might sound like I’m suggesting we rush through Thanksgiving right on to Christmas. But the opposite is actually true. I […]

A Place at the Table: Festive Place Card Holders

Animal Place Cards One of the simplest ways to create a warm and welcoming table is to set out place cards. It doesn’t matter if you’re hosting a feast for four or forty, place cards tell people that they belong and that they have a special place at your table. I found some adorable place […]

Making Things Pretty: Drawer & Shelf Liners

My absolute favorite projects are the little updates I can do that will bring more joy to everyday experiences. I LOVE paying attention to small details in a home and improving experiences when I can. When I was remodeling, I thought about things like how my kitchen drawer pulls would feel (I want them to […]

Urban Jungle Bloggers: Plants & Words

Plants are friends! I could not put it easier for this season’s styling topic for the Urban Jungle Bloggers. The topic is ‘Plants & Words’ and my new letter peg board from Urban Outfitters came just in time! So yes, plants are friends! Because seriously: They are way more than just decoration. They are roommates, they keep us company, and they reward us with healthy growth. Here’s to plants!

According to today’s motto I want to share some of my old and new plant friends with you. Recently I received a little Monstera obliqua cutting by a friend that I potted, I found a Madagascar Jewel (Euphorbia leuconeura) on eBay that sits happily in the quirky eye planter by Urban Outfitters, and a new Spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum) sits next to my little teddy bear from Canada.

Also my Stapelia surprised me with two new blooms – the second time this year! I was so happy when noticed it! Moreover, can we talk about my obsession with face pots and planters? Meet my fancy new Utopia bowl named Carmen by famous American designer Jonathan Adler. I found this beauty in the webshop Markanto and really, really wanted it. Here it is – currently Carmen holds a large Tillandsia in her bowl. We will see what we will add in there soon. Additionally I have planted a new small Sansevieria in my face planter that I brought back from Canada. And from her looks I can tell, my bust of the Greek goddess Hygeia seems content in the urban jungle.

Also new is my tall Yucca standing between the bedroom and the living room. I like its thick and tall stem and the hair like leaves on top. It adds a real jungle vibe to my home – as if it wasn’t jungly enough already, ha! And I am not worrying about fresh supplies – lots of cuttings are thriving and rooting in the propagation cradle by Hilton Carter on my windowsill.

I also have a new climbing Monstera acuminata and a few new airplants for the coffee table. But you can never have too many plants, can you?

Here is more cuteness alarm: Can we talk about the super cutie mini watering can? I found it on Urban Outfitters and it is just perfect to water my small plants as the big watering can pours too much water for the little babies. Enough plant talk here, I need to go and see your interpretation of ‘Plants & Words’. Off I go. Oh and by the way: This was the last styling topic by the Urban Jungle Bloggers for now. Let’s see what we come up with for the future. Stay tuned and stay green!

People who inspire me: Hej Franny

It’s been a while since my last post for the series ‘People who inspire me’. But today I am back with a new inspiring person I e-met on Instagram: Hej Franny. Franny is a freelance social media expert and lives in Munich – just like me. But we share more than just the city. Franny has the same rug in her living room like I do, she also has a Moroccan leather pouf, and we share a soft spot for plants. So does it come as a surprise that I feel inspired whenever I visit her Instagram account?

Franny shares a great motto on her site: She pursues an adventure of a simple, natural way of life. This resonates with me too – quite a lot to be honest. So much that I wonder: Do we social media people strive for such a simple, natural way of life because of the intangible, elusive digital world? Maybe!

On Instagram Franny shares peeks into her daily life. Whether it is her home, her daily coffee fix, or yummy food pics – I like the compositions and colours of Franny’s world. I also love the multitude of textures in her pictures – you want to touch and feel all the textiles, surfaces, and objects.

If you like what you see, I invite you to hop over to the Instagram account of Hej Franny. Finally you will get glimpses into another Munich home. Even though it resembles my home a bit, I admit. But great people think alike, right?
