"I found this really cute picnic basket at Goodwill for $4.79 and loved the weaving on it," Ana Ochoa from @ana.ochoaliving said in a recent Instagram video. She shared that the basket's straps were on their last legs, and she had the perfect second life in mind for it.
The Harmony measures 34 feet long and 8.5 feet wide, making it road-legal across North America without a special permit. Inside, the floor plan stretches to 423 square feet, thoughtfully designed for family living.
Cleveland explains, 'I just wasn't into the idea of constantly seeing my bed from the couch. I spent almost two months hunting online for a room divider that wouldn't block too much natural light or make the space feel cramped. Eventually, I realized I'd have to make one myself.'
Work or social media can become addictive, and the bonds between people can suffer in the process. Designating certain spaces as screen-free zones helps provide a clear delineation between work or school and family time. Social media, office or school gossip, and work demands all erode time that could be better spent on personal growth through hobbies or the formation of social bonds.
Every one of these items takes up space and energy, but the use of energy here in relation to clutter is actually two-fold. The stuff you own requires maintenance and management, and when you pass, this management becomes shifted along to someone else (whoever is responsible for sorting through your Earthly possessions).
Ferm Living's Bridge system is one part coat rack, one part display piece for your most-worn pieces. Built for versatility, the slim oak beams provide two tiers of storage space, whether you need room for hangers or just a place to hang your hat at the end of the day. It's nearly five feet high, meaning none of your beloved coats will sweep the floor. Its vertical branches would also make sense as a place to display fabrics or hang towels to dry.
But as everyone is chasing micro-trends, choosing a neutral kitchen and following your personal style comes across as more wise and timeless than ever. As seen in the 10 neutral kitchens below, hues like whites and off-whites, blacks, grays, beiges, and earth tones can be combined in infinite ways and applied to different textures and materials, to create kitchens that are dynamic, clean, and classy all at once.
Wood: Arguably the most common material for a coffee table, whether packed with storage or not, solid wood can be a durable and style-agnostic choice. A deeper hue, like a mahogany or cherry, can lean mid-century, while a natural oak or teak feels distinctly Scandinavian. Opt for a material that's white washed or stained for a farmhouse look. Metal: Aluminum and stainless steel are common choices for the modernist or more minimal design aesthete.
