Creating Blissful rituals in 2018

ashlina kaposta December 26, 2017

As we prepare to embrace 2018, I am beginning to let the possibilities of the new year sink in. One of the ways I shift myself to walk into the new year strong is by getting my energy cleared out and ready for all the amazing things to come. I'll be sharing my countdown to 2018 rituals with my newsletter readers, so be sure to join us here if you haven't already. 

I have always felt intuitively that visualizing what you want to be is one of the most important things you can do to get to where you want to be. Which is one of the reasons I love books, magazines and movies. It's fun to see inspiring images that can help you paint the picture of the life you truly dream of. Now that blogs and social media are so prevalent, I love to get lost and daydream in imagery. 

I recently came across a beautifully inspiring photographer, Hannah Lemholt, and I have been so obsessed. After spending hours on her blog and falling madly in love with her photos, it reminded me how important it is to make sure that I am intentionally curating beauty everyday. When I am in the midst of my daily rituals, I always try to have flowers, candles and things that I love. However for 2018, I want to tend to this area of life even more. To make each routine as beautiful as a photo. So, I will be paying extra attention to throwing away random odds and ends, trash, things that don't have a home or aren't beautiful to me. Every moment of life should be more intentionally curated to its best. 

It's easy to let things go. If you were to see my desk right now, you would know what I mean. This coming year, I am going to be more intentional about how things look at home. I am going to do everything I can to make my 2018 Balanced & Blissful and I hope these images inspire you to create beauty in your everyday world.

Dynamic Duo: bold colors + dramatic artwork

ashlina kaposta September 1, 2015

I am working on something with one of my favorite stores in Houston, High Fashion Home. I've filled my apartment with their glamorous things before, see here. Every time I visit the showroom, I am most impressed with the bold, dramatic and oversized artwork paired with bursts of color. It's so good. 

Of course black and white abstract art is typically my first choice but all of this color is really beautiful too. If you have a mix of the right colors, I can really get on board with large color abstract pieces. I love how it can allow you to use bright pink pieces, like these photos above. 

I also love photography. Unique prints are my favorite. You can find very cool pieces at These Fine Walls or Citizen Altelier. The thing about it, don't go small, go as big as possible. That's what makes artwork like this look so glam. 

I've been stalking Marilyn Minter for a while now. I love her glitter eye art. She has so many fantastic pieces. REALLY want one for my home.
