I'm just wondering how you decorate your home away from home?
We've been in our rental almost 2 years, and compared to our U.K house, we are living a bit like students!
Have you recreated a carbon copy of your old home or started from scratch? Did you spend a lot or nothing at all?
We took some of our soft furnishings with us ~ bed linen, towels, bed and sofa cushions and some throws. They are a lovely reminder of our UK house, but I'm thinking of changing it. I had some curtains made, but one set are still in a poly bag a year down the line!
We have plenty of wall space, so need to get some more pictures, but the whole apartment needs a paint really and landlords here expect tenants to do that. I've kind of held back as I have no idea how long we'll be living here. IKEA has a large and popular presence here so that's not a problem.
I'd love to hear what you've done to make your house or apartment more homely.
Interior design tips welcome!
