SMILE , IT ’ S HOME TIME !
FROM FENG SHUI ZEN , TO ORGANISED BLISS ; COSY COMFORT TO A FRESH HIT OF COLOUR ; 2021 IS THE YEAR TO RE HARNESS YOUR ABODE AND CREATE YOUR HAPPY HOME .
2020 will forever be remembered as the year we stayed at home . Months and months of working from our improvised studies ( with unintended coworkers who demanded constant snacks or just refused to wash the office dishes no matter how nicely you asked ); enduring too many shudderingly awkward zooms calls to even think about ; and having to navigate the kitchen too . So after spending the better part of a year cooped up , it is fair to say that most of us have gone one of two ways ; we are either so sick of the sight of the same four walls , ready to rip it down for months now ... or , we have a newfound respect and love for our little space . Whichever way you are leaning , we want to make 2021 the year of your happy home . Whether that means practicing your Feng Shui or simply adding some finishing touches of mindfulness into your space , we have the advice for you !
