Time to upgrade your space
We’ve been puttering around our homes for a long while. Many have turned their dining areas into an office/ study area, some have spent countless hours in the kitchen to cook, bake or make coffee, and the rest make the most out of the available space to try different fitness challenges, including Chloe Ting's. It's pretty impressive that we’ve found and are continuously finding ways to reinvent ourselves and our spaces.
In my case, my current obsession has everything to do with home and design. Because why not? We might as well make our space pretty if it’s where we’ll be 100% of the time. Since lockdown started and in attempt to control what we can, we’ve jotted down storage tips and MINE-d restored furniture (yes, on Instagram). This time, we're on a bookmarking spree, saving decorative pieces we want to buy for later that honestly has no other purpose than to make one's space look good.
So here, a short list of local home decor stores we follow on Instagram to help make your home pretty.
