Ideal Home Truths
Where's your happy place?
My bedroom – there's nothing quite like winding down in my own space that I've curated to my liking. Whether I'm playing video games, reading a book on my Kindle, or binge-watching a new series, it's easily my favourite place to be.
What’s your home addiction?
Decorative trinkets and anything LEGO, for sure. I have a bit of a blind box obsession so everything I've gathered is displayed on every available surface in my home. The same goes with LEGO, as I've got a handful of LEGO flowers and even sets of my favourite Sanrio characters. Some would argue and just call them dust collectors, but they're my guilty pleasure.
What is your next home project?
For someone who loves and appreciates art, I must admit that my walls aren't the greatest indicator. I'm a poster kid turned gallery wall addict – though it's more of a vicarious experience right now. My goal is to fill the walls of my flat with art and prints from local markets and independent shops, to complement my many trinkets already making their home on my shelves and dresser tops.
