For me light is the essence of a relaxing home. Bright open spaces, and natural light bring a fresh feeling and relaxing mood. Through Followstudio I found this amazing blog by Shannon Fricke. As she so perfectly puts ' I believe that the way your decorate your home can influence the way you feel about your life'. I adore the homes I have posted found on Shannons blog, so many little inspiring shots to help me create a home that makes me feel relaxed and happy. 

HOME SWEET HOME

Some images from my home and things that are special to me.

 - In the top image are black and white photos of all the special people in my life, which I have pegged onto some string. Hanging in the middle is a heart made of twine and shells I received from a loved one from an overseas trip, also sitting on top of my mirror is a little ornament from my grandma, three little monkeys 'see no evil, speak no evil and hear no evil'. It reminds me of her and I really believe that she lived like these monkeys. She was the most kind hearted person I have and possibly will ever know.

- My beautiful backyard and a chair we found at a council clean up.

- The next image is another of my grandmas belongings a necklace my pop bought her from a trip to Holland. 

-The last, a little white birdhouse I received as a gift.
