What type of home do you have?

We bought our first home last July and it was described as “Chalet Style Bungalow”. It is a 2 storey building with 3 bedrooms and a lovely garden wrapping around the house.

Who lives there and how long have you lived there?

My husband, pug girl Coco and I have been living in the house for 10 months now.

Describe your interior style in 5 words.

Modern Traditional with a twist!

What’s your favourite room in the house and why?

My favourite room is definitely my craft room! It is a place where I create, brainstorm, stage photos and simply be myself. It is my little space and safe haven, where I can get lost and not think about anything and just create.

Is there anything unusual about your home?

The kitchen layout is a little unusual and we have a servant’s hatch which is not very common nowadays.  We are planning big kitchen renovations in the next couple of years, where we will knock a few walls down, so it will all be open plan and exactly how we want it!

What’s your favourite home gadget?

I am not really into gadgets as such I am more obsessed with my DIY tools! 🙂  

What’s your best tip for decorating your home on a budget?  

Most of our house has been decorated and furnished on a budget (apart from the bathroom and some key furniture pieces).  I love to upcycle and turn something old into something beautiful and one of a kind.  Try doing things yourself, shop during sales and invest in key pieces only.

Where do you like to shop for home decor?  

I love TK Maxx as they have some unique pieces and good quality items. I also love Wayfair and Achica online shops as well as H&M home section, you can find some gems in there!

What’s the last item you bought for your house?  

Last item I bought was a ceramic bathroom set for our new bathroom.

What is your next project in the home?

We are just about finishing the bathroom renovations and decided to have a little break after that. I have a few furniture projects in store which I cannot wait to start. Then in a year or two we will be attempting to do the kitchen/dining room/living room renovations!

Where do you get inspiration for home decor?

I love looking online for various designs, Pinterest is definitely one of my top places to go to get ideas.  I also love Home Design magazines and certain home renovation TV programmes.  Normally I see a piece of furniture and imagine what I would do with it, what colours would look nice etc.

If you had a spare room in your house, that you could do absolutely anything with, what would you do with it?

I am really lucky, as I have my ‘spare’ room that I turned into my dream craft room, plus I have also taken over the garage, that is slowly becoming my workshop. I don’t want to be greedy, so I think if I did have another spare room I would make it into a snooker room for my husband.


How dreamy is Evija’s craft room? I adore the gallery wall, it’s so unique! Don’t forget to swing by her blog for lots of craft, DIY and home decor inspiration.

    There is definitely room for improvement in this craft room – I love the color palette though. The wall decorations are neat.
