Why I Don't Wear a Wedding Ring

One question I often get asked is why I don't wear a wedding ring. Well, let me explain. As a creative person, I use my hands a lot for DIY projects and designing. Wearing a ring can sometimes get in the way and be uncomfortable. However, it doesn't mean that I'm any less committed to my marriage. My husband and I have a strong bond, and a ring is not the only symbol of that.

When it comes to expressing my love and commitment, I prefer to focus on actions and words rather than a physical object. It's a personal choice, and it works for us. So, don't let societal expectations of wearing a wedding ring dictate your own choices in your relationship.

Finding Inspiration for Interior Design Projects

One of the questions I frequently receive is how I find inspiration for my interior design projects. Well, inspiration can come from anywhere! It could be a piece of artwork, a beautiful landscape, or even a song. As an interior designer, I keep my eyes open and take inspiration from the world around me.

I also love exploring different cultures and their design aesthetics. Traveling to new places and immersing myself in different environments helps me discover unique ideas and incorporate them into my projects. The key is to stay curious and open-minded.

Additionally, I believe that inspiration is a two-way street. Sometimes, my clients inspire me with their personal stories and experiences. Understanding their vision and incorporating their individuality into the designs is a fulfilling and exciting process.

Behind The Scenes of My Creative Process

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of my creative process? Well, let me take you on a journey. The first step is brainstorming and gathering ideas. I create mood boards, collect inspiration images, and jot down all my thoughts in a journal. This helps me visualize the overall concept and direction for a project.

Once I have a clear vision, I start sourcing materials and putting together a detailed plan. This involves researching suppliers, visiting stores, and sometimes even creating custom pieces. It's all about finding the perfect elements to bring the design to life.

Next, comes the hands-on part. I roll up my sleeves and get to work. From painting walls to assembling furniture, I enjoy getting involved in every aspect of the project. It's a labor of love, and seeing the transformation unfold is incredibly rewarding.

Finally, it's all about the finishing touches. I carefully select accessories, artwork, and textiles to complete the look. Every detail matters, and I want each space to reflect the personality and style of its occupants.

So, the next time you see a beautifully designed space on my channel, remember that it's the result of a carefully planned and executed creative process. It's not always easy, but it's definitely worth it.
