Sweet Spots - The Start

"Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration."
-Charles Dickens


I love home decorating.

Being a renter of a one bedroom apartment in a pretty modern building doesn't allow me the freedom to do as I want, nor does it give me the bare bones I would be happy with in one of the vintage buildings in my area. But, I still dream big.

Style in both fashion and home is highly personal. Ideas from one person blend with another idea and a third idea is born. To me, often it is the little touches that make a house (or apartment) a home. The personal touches that your visitors see as reflections of who you are, and your true soul.

It seems like each day I come across a new idea, some feasible and others not so much. Thanks to this, I bring you Sweet Spots. A new spot on Moose that will feature decorating ideas.

This version is just a few things that I've seen and collected on my computer lately. The next Sweet Spots post will be dedicated to one particular room or item in a home. Any requests? Leave them here!

No large yard or balcony for a garden? Not much windowsill space? Try this fun idea of a hanging planter. I like the idea of making it from an old drawer.

I love the idea of turning a closet into a book nook. One apartment I looked at when I first moved out on my own the current tenant had turned a random middle of the room closet into an office area to house her computer and the like.


This is pretty modern, and generally I'm not big on the modern style. But I'm LOVING the pink. I'm also a huge proponent of having a washer and dryer in the kitchen to maximize space elsewhere in a small space.

Fairy lights, especially in a bedroom setting.


As with the I Heart Etsy spot on this blog, I'm not sure how often I will post it. I'm trying to come up with a schedule for these two, plus two more.. one on fashion and one on inspirations. Both of the latter will be posted for the first time in the coming days.
