“Wait! It’s Wednesday? Where’s the wedding post?”
Seeing as I’m no longer planning a wedding and immersed in all-things-wedding all day every day, I won’t be writing wedding posts every Wednesday. I still love weddings and will post about them from time to time, but otherwise Wednesday is going to be like any other day around here.Image via BHG / Amazon Wooden Clothes Pegs – $4.25 / West Elm Bamboo Laundry Hamper – $41.29 / Mrs Meyers Rosemary Detergent – $15.99 / Guide to Procedures Print by Lettered and Lined – $18 / Vintage Wooden Ironing Board – $143.18 / Ikea Mulig Drying Rack – $24.99 / Anthropologie Mountain Peaks Basket – $88.00
Laundry rooms are often forgotten. Guests never go in there (unless heaven forbid there’s a red-wine/white-shirt incident) and you only go in there for possibly the most dreaded, never ending chore. Wouldn’t it be nice to do those chores in a beautiful space?
My current laundry room is just a nook in our bathroom covered by a curtain. I know that if I had the space, I would want my laundry room to have all the items up above. And I’d certainly want that washer and dryer set…
I avoid ironing clothes at all lengths. I find the task tedious and incredibly annoying with my half sized ironing board.
Which laundry chore to you dread the most?

There’s something so calming about a white and grey bathroom. The simplicity of the colours makes can really turn a bathroom into a spa like experience. I love how uncluttered this one is and how a ladder is used to keep newspapers for bath tub reading.
The silver colour block on the
TAG Vase instantly glams it up, and I love the idea of using a decorative shelf to store those little containers you need while bathing. And, it’s probably no secret, I’m a sucker for
chevron pillows.
Arguments often ensue over bathroom use, whether it’s someone taking too long or someone’s toiletries scattered all over the counter.
How do you avoid bathroom squabbles?

Personally, I have a hard time concentrating in a messy area, which is probably why I hate sitting at my desk lately (it’s a disaster). So for this month’s curated I had to focus on office space, partly to drool with you over all the gorgeous office materials out there, and to give myself a little kick in the butt to clean my space up. Think it will help?
Is your office and/or desk impeccably neat or hopelessly disastrous?
I don’t make wishes (the superstitious side of me forbids it) but if I did, it would be to live in a
Ferm Living Catalogue, or rather to live in a home that was completely outfitted in their gorgeous housewares.
I first professed my Ferm Living love when I showed items featured in the last
Homes in Pantones. Well I’ve been drooling over the entire catalogue and each of the gorgeous items on the site ever since.
We live in a small 1br suite at the moment that is crammed full of things. We’re constantly purging just to keep our home organized. Sadly this isn’t the time to add more, but you can bet that when we buy our first house it will include lovely items from this lovely shop. That is if we’ll have money left over to afford these Euro delights.
Here are just a few of my favourites:
Small Melt Cushion /
Wire Basket /
Toothbrush Family /
Candleholder /
Teapot /
Moon Teatowel /
Letter Tray /
“The Village” Cushion
Shipping from the official site is steep (€47 outside Europe) but thankfully some North American sites carry Ferm Living such as All Modern and Wayfair.
*phew*
Do you have a favourite home accessories line?
I could always use a new obsession
p.s. nope this isn’t a sponsored post. I just love Ferm Living
