For those who may not know me on a deeper level, it could come as a surprise that I don't quite fit the typical Type "A" personality mold that many might assume. In reality, I see myself as more of a Type B personality with some unique organizational tendencies. However, the art of organization has become the cornerstone of my success, and I've come to rely on it in every aspect of my life.
<br/>
<br/>
Over the years, I've explored various methods of personal organization, from physical agendas, notebooks, and journals to digital applications and computer notepads but it was a fortunate discovery of <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a>, an online organizational tool, that marked a significant turning point in how I approach life.
<br/>
<br/>
For those unfamiliar with it, <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a> is an incredibly customizable tool that can be tailored to your specific needs. From the moment I started using it, I was hooked. Initially, I used <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a> to bring a long-conceived business concept to life. I created a project within it to seamlessly compile lists, track tasks, take notes, preserve sources of inspiration, and even upload images, all in a meticulously structured manner. I adhered to my plans and diligently worked through my tasks for a whole month. Encouraged by this success, I expanded my use of <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a> to organize my work and clients, and eventually I decided to commit to organizing every aspect of my life in December.
<br/>
<br/>
When I say "every aspect," I truly mean it. I migrated all my projects from other applications to <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a> and created new systems within it. I designed a "Habit Tracker" to monitor my top five habits, systems for tracking my progress in reading the Bible (almost completing it in a year), cataloged my capsule wardrobe, maintained a checklist for wardrobe updates, tracked my finances, monitored the shelf life of skincare products, managed work rotations, and even kept a personal journal – all within <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a>.
<br/>
<br/>
So, when I say "everything," I sincerely mean everything. This comprehensive approach to organization has made it much easier for me to stay on top of my goals throughout the year. Last year, I spent just three days creating a "Personal Development" PDF that delved into self-assessment across various aspects of my life, including finances, spirituality, career, and personal connections. This helped me establish a <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a>-based system divided into trimesters, each with a set of tasks to be accomplished within three months.
<br/>
<br/>
My goal was to create actionable, realistic goals for each trimester, without overwhelming pressure. Instead of fixating on specific deadlines, I agreed with myself that unfinished goals from one trimester could be carried over to the next. These goals ranged from simple ones like "drink more water" to more substantial ones, such as getting out of financial debt, completing crucial online courses, renewing my passport for future travel, launching a business from scratch, and starting the process of obtaining Brazilian citizenship.
<br/>
<br/>
At the beginning of each trimester, I revisited my lists and took small steps toward achieving them. I made calls, enrolled in courses, attended appointments, shopped for my capsule wardrobe, interacted with government authorities, set up a business account and more. Gradually, I made progress without feeling overwhelmed. After nearly a year of dedicated effort, I'm proud to say I've successfully completed 42 out of the 60 goals I set for the year. As for the remaining 18, I've already taken steps to ensure their completion before 2024.
<br/>
<br/>
Some might view this level of organization as excessive, but for someone like me dealing with mental health challenges, it's been a lifeline. It has allowed me to thrive, even in the most challenging situations. For instance, in one trimester, I accomplished a remarkable 22 goals, but in the next I only achieved three major objectives due to my deep involvement in launching a new business, which required most of my energy and financial resources. Nevertheless, I approached the following trimester with the same hope and optimism.
<br/>
<br/>
<a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a> has remained my steadfast companion in organizing my life and maintaining a balanced pace of progress. It has streamlined client onboarding, supported my pursuit of long-term goals, facilitated systematic learning, and brought positive changes to my life and relationships.
<br/>
<br/>
In the coming month, I plan to share some of my <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a> templates for free. However, the true beauty of <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a> lies in its adaptability. You have the freedom to customize it to meet your unique needs and make 2024 a year of profound self-improvement. If you haven't explored <a href="https://affiliate.notion.so/anaar">Notion</a> yet, I wholeheartedly encourage you to do so by following this link.Ana Degenaarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02785316583527273127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775508222517322254.post-48851353914426121612023-11-09T08:55:00.000-03:002023-11-09T08:55:31.421-03:00Timeless Minimalism by Architect Oliver Du Puy<a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/2023/11/timeless-minimalism-by-architect-oliver.html"><img alt="" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="750" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5gafaGNS-Z2z3fuOc_xQ9U9zTTvgZBHlYz385XVrK9dSZwF7p3lw9rAzy6TmJUtMxq5Tw6-Wxth-Ddak8jQCLIimUTS7FGHVWepEkvatbkQEGbk7DzyqhXerCTXM1bxSEyOk_8d9zyPUwm27XS2YUe-k_SIIWhzSoWuAwYQ6kE5hq6vzh0EYgtCldQXSC/s1600/Timeless%20Minimalism%20by%20Architect%20Oliver%20Du%20Puy%2001%20anadegenaar.com.jpg"/></a>

<br/>
In a world that whirls faster with each passing day, the allure of timeless minimalism in interior design and architecture stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of simplicity. This design philosophy transcends fleeting trends, capturing elegance through clean lines, thoughtful spaces, and a harmonious interplay of form and function.
<br/>
<br/>
Here, quality triumphs over quantity. Every piece, whether furniture or decor, is chosen with precision and care. This emphasis on craftsmanship ensures that each element in the space adds value, both aesthetically and functionally. It's a philosophy that embraces the longevity of design, resisting the disposable nature of fast-paced trends.
<br/>
<br/>
Minimalist spaces often ingeniously harness natural light. Expansive windows and strategically placed openings seamlessly blend the interior with the exterior, erasing the boundaries between inside and out. The interplay of light and shadow becomes a dynamic element, casting a poetic ambiance that evolves throughout the day.
<br/>
<br/>
While minimalism may initially convey a sense of austerity, at its core lies a deep understanding of the human experience. Thoughtful design takes into consideration the needs and comfort of the inhabitants. The minimalist space becomes a canvas for personal expression, inviting individuals to infuse it with their unique stories and experiences.
<br/>
<br/>
Much like the work of architect <a href="https://oliverdupuy.com/">Oliver Du Puy</a>, timeless minimalism in interior design and architecture serves as an enduring ode to the beauty of simplicity. It extends an invitation to live deliberately, surrounded by elements that bring joy, purpose, and a sense of calm. In a world saturated with constant noise, the elegance of minimalism offers a respite—a timeless sanctuary where less truly becomes more.Ana Degenaarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02785316583527273127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775508222517322254.post-63557913077250439972023-11-06T13:44:00.001-03:002023-11-06T14:00:36.411-03:00INO Jewelry: A Timeless Statement of Sustainability and Quality<a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/2023/11/ino-jewelry-timeless-statement-of.html"><img alt="" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="750" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPEcxsQlzrzjbH6FkNonsE5buZ0aqJUN2zBuDDp0NITLOfHdu7lwNWeijLlX-B0dijkJWW3HInLru0CmgDiIwdvyxfk6m-aqTFlAqsZstqDClOjQnuKatCIiAMugsTw8cXrzbLAUkfjNmqQFS9L8lCAzmugNj0HIZNpDG4qqqt00QUQUcjeYfmxS4xUXJq/s1600/INO%20Jewelry%20anadegenaar.com%2001.png"/></a>

It's been just 11 months since I launched my guide, <a href="https://studioanaar.gumroad.com/l/curated">Curated</a>, and the journey has been nothing short of remarkable. In this relatively short span of time, I've witnessed countless individuals who invested in my guide embark on their own journeys towards success, discovering Pinterest's incredible potential for generating passive income. But the story doesn't end there; I, too, have experienced a substantial leap from where I was 11 months ago to where I stand today. By adopting a low-effort approach and gradually building up my income streams, I've also strengthened my relationships with companies and brands that now seek my services, a far cry from my earlier days when I had to reach out to them.
<br/>
<br/>
It's mind-boggling to think that millions of people use Pinterest daily, yet only a small fraction fully grasp the gold mine they're sitting on. Pinterest is a platform that offers opportunities for everyone to benefit, regardless of their following, niche, or willingness to put themselves out there. So, if there's one takeaway from this post, it's that no matter your current circumstances, you too can harness the power of Pinterest to create a steady stream of passive income. Those who started before you have already blazed a trail, and now, it's your turn to reap the rewards for your efforts.
<br/>
<br/>
<b>Unlocking Pinterest's Passive Income Potential
</b><br/>
Pinterest has always been known for its visual inspiration and ideas. It's a platform where users collect and share images, and for many, it's a go-to source for discovering new recipes, DIY projects, travel inspiration, and much more. But beneath the surface lies an incredible opportunity for individuals to turn their time spent on the platform into a source of passive income.
<br/>
<br/>
<b>The Low-Effort Approach
</b><br/>
One of the most beautiful aspects of leveraging Pinterest for passive income is that it doesn't require you to be a social media superstar or spend hours creating content. Instead, Pinterest allows you to curate content from around the web and share it with your audience. This can be as simple as pinning images and articles related to your niche or interests. Over time, your collection of pins starts to gain traction, and as your pins get more engagement, you'll see a steady rise in your followers and views.
<br/>
<br/>
<b>Gradual Income Build-Up
</b><br/>
The process of building a passive income stream on Pinterest is gradual but incredibly rewarding. As your following and engagement grow, so does your potential to earn money. Companies and brands recognize the value of Pinterest as a marketing platform and are willing to collaborate with influencers and content creators to reach a wider audience. This presents an excellent opportunity for you to monetize your Pinterest presence. Sponsored pins, affiliate marketing, and partnerships are just a few ways to turn your Pinterest activity into a reliable source of income.
<br/>
<br/>
<b>Strengthening Relationships with Brands
</b><br/>
In addition to generating passive income, Pinterest can help you build strong relationships with companies and brands that are eager to tap into your influence. As your Pinterest profile gains traction, these brands may begin seeking you out for collaborations. They recognize that you have a dedicated following and an eye for curating content that resonates with your audience, making you a valuable asset in their marketing strategies.
<br/>
<br/>
No matter your starting point, what's most exciting about Pinterest's potential for passive income is that it's accessible to everyone. Whether you have a small following or a vast one, you can make Pinterest work for you. Your niche, interests, and comfort level with self-exposure are all factors that you can tailor to your advantage.
<br/>
<br/>
Pinterest is indeed a gold mine waiting to be explored. The stories of those who have ventured into the world of Pinterest for passive income are proof that with the right approach, anyone can benefit from this remarkable platform. So, if you've been underestimating the power of Pinterest, now is the time to tap into its full potential and begin your journey toward a more financially secure and rewarding future.

In the ever-evolving realm of design, striking the perfect balance between tradition and innovation can be quite an endeavor. Nevertheless, <a href="https://newworks.dk/en/">New Works</a>, a groundbreaking design company, has truly mastered the art of crafting pieces that eloquently bridge the gap between the past and the present, light and shadow, design and art. Their unique approach pays homage to the rich history of Scandinavian craftsmanship and materials while embracing contemporary shapes. I once had the pleasure of immersing myself in the captivating world of New Works, and what I discovered was a harmonious fusion of their collaborations with celebrated designers and artists, resulting in inspiring creations that celebrate both the sensual and the bold.
<br/>
<br/>
New Works' philosophy is deeply rooted in the Scandinavian tradition of craftsmanship and a deep reverence for authentic, tactile materials. This profound connection to their heritage permeates every work they create. By honoring their roots, New Works rejuvenates classical design principles with a modern twist, striking a delicate balance between tradition and innovation, all while respecting their design lineage.
<br/>
<br/>
One of the most enchanting aspects of <a href="https://newworks.dk/en/">New Works</a> lies in their unwavering commitment to partnering with a diverse group of esteemed designers and artists from around the world. These individuals share New Works' passion for sculptural forms and the use of genuine materials. Together, they embark on creative journeys that give rise to designs that are not only visually arresting but also emotionally resonant.
<br/>
<br/>
The collaboration between <a href="https://newworks.dk/en/">New Works</a> and these talented artists and designers breathes life into a broad spectrum of pieces that challenge the norms of conventional design. By consistently pushing the boundaries of what's achievable, New Works continues to redefine the limits of creativity, crafting pieces that captivate the senses.Ana Degenaarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02785316583527273127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775508222517322254.post-13856429478013569982023-11-01T18:11:00.000-03:002023-11-01T18:11:21.852-03:00Country Christmas in November<a class="ssmainhide" href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/2023/11/country-christmas-in-november.html"><img border="0" class="nopin" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoTbRlEXCeBNv7pVz7imgzdiskfVkOMTtOJ7QL_hQidX_kqe-jN_WYf-eU4OJLSjNTx0cF7YcfOG6p8kMJTvM3bT_FGCsWmVKEiEbrnH7ACc-Fy2F7HUaRPGbv9iZEtWDNcmMBc2Vxr5jy_x3KFV2MNWzkloDsKK8IRWkdTsTxXp4DsPMcIK4MHavlDFho/s1600/Christmas%20anadegenaar.com%20%20Cover.jpg" /></a>

Everyone and their mother, yes, including me, seems to be embracing the spirit of Christmas, even though we've barely left October behind. I don't know why or how; perhaps that's a topic for researchers and psychologists. Maybe (more like definitely) there's an underlying reason behind our yearning for a more 'joyful' time, but I'm here for it.
<br />
<br />
I've already indulged in a bit of Christmas shopping myself. After at least 8 years of getting a real tree in the tropics every year, I finally caved in and got myself a faux tree (which sounds better than 'fake,' for sure) for sustainability reasons. Also, well, it's 2023, you know?
<br />
<br />
I've also spent hours swooning over glass baubles and dreaming of a country Christmas, just like in the pictures above, with a Dutch baby pancake baking in the oven, and more. The anticipation and excitement are real and hard to resist, so have a merry holiday time, everyone.

I've gotta admit, living in a two-season country can still feel pretty surreal to me. The shift from those scorching hot summer months to a couple of rainy ones is like one wild rollercoaster ride that I've come to embrace. But my heart truly belongs to one season above all else – fall.
<br/>
<br/>
There's just something so captivating about this time, from the layering clothes to that unmistakable crispness in the air, the gorg transformation of leaves, and of course, those heartwarming, hearty meals. It's a season that speaks to my soul like no other. I find myself daydreaming often about living in a place where autumn is somewhere in the calendar.
<br/>
<br/>
However, here I am, residing in the tropics and please, don't get me wrong; I absolutely adore the sun and the beach, but deep down, I’m more of an autumn girly. So, what's a fall enthusiast like me to do?
<br/>
<br/>
Well, I've come up with my own little ways to get my fall fix. It's all about finding creative outlets to make autumn feel alive, even in the land of eternal summer. For instance, you might often spot me wearing my favorite coats to indoor events, just to relish the sensation of layers and warmth.
<br/>
<br/>
Another essential for me is giving my nails a seasonal makeover. Those deep burgundies, burnt oranges, and rich browns become my go-to nail colors during this time of the year. There's just something about painting my nails in these shades that brings me closer to the fall spirit.
<br/>
<br/>
To create that cozy fall ambiance, I'm not afraid to crank up the air conditioning and light some spiced-scented candles. Sometimes, I'll even prepare dishes that embody the essence of fall, like a hearty pumpkin soup or a classic apple pie. It's my way of embracing the season through taste and aroma but to all you lucky ones in regions where you can enjoy this season, I’m a little jell-y but mostly delighted for you!
<br/>
<br/>
So, as the leaves begin to change, and the pumpkin spice lattes make their triumphant return, I just wanted to wish you all a very happy fall! May your days be filled with crisp air, cozy meals and memorable times.Ana Degenaarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02785316583527273127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775508222517322254.post-86893113404360049172023-06-19T08:15:00.008-03:002023-11-02T09:22:35.835-03:00Embracing the Arrival of Summer with YOOX<a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/2023/06/embracing-arrival-of-summer-with-yoox.html" title="Julliat"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOlpwJxs9d_6pp8eBUJaM-B5ugPmqI4no8ihX1kh5PDGJKPuRVMlkK8jY-UZf5VE6RGDCwfgpB1DqX9uvAiVNBWIW33gGZGuqh9DIgUQv1B-rEhtZHPdqDDqbXYllzm94R4v1YlDtMg8AgdWYCXdXPgXFDPIhENCoSER85xEf3iFWuuKboHXheuNSvIsB_/s1600/ignant-photography-evgenia-kayumova-9-1151x1536.png"/></a>

The much-anticipated arrival of summer is upon us, and we can already feel its enchanting essence in the air, beckoning us with the promise of warmth and renewal. Summer has always held a special place in my heart, as it holds the incredible ability to uplift anyone's mood after the long winter months. Living in a city that feels like an eternal summer is truly a blessing to me, but the demands of everyday life often make it so that we don't end up enjoying the full beauty of it. Nevertheless, summer is almost here and with it, we'll get to delight in al fresco dinners, refreshing swims, captivating sunsets – and for that we also need a refreshed wardrobe that reflects the changing season and mood.

Something about these <a href="https://www.behance.net/gallery/145775621/_" rel="nofollow">stunning renderings</a> of Dark Zen architecture drew my attention. I'm not sure if it's the tranquil atmosphere or the amazing blend of old Japanese and minimalist styles. One thing is certain: dark zen style creates a beautiful symphony of simplicity and boldness that result in a melody of refinement. Natural materials stand out in the dark and moody palette, while clean lines, low-profile furniture, and dim lighting provide a relaxing ambience. It's form and function working together to create a calm and sophisticated retreat. And I simply love it.

<br>
Saks Fifth Avenue is currently offering a variety of designer items with up to 70% off, allowing us to explore new trends this upcoming season, whether you're looking to add new pieces to your collection or simply refresh your existing wardrobe. As winter gracefully departs, it's time to revamp your wardrobe with the latest mid-season fashion trends and get ready for spring.
<br>
<br>
Layering is a key fashion trend during the mid-season shift. As the weather begins to warm, it's not yet time to put away your winter staples. Instead, match your heavy winter attire with lighter, spring-appropriate pieces to get a gorgeous and elegant style. A thick knit sweater, for example, may be matched with a midi skirt or jeans and a lightweight jacket.

<br>
<br>
One more prevalent trend during this time of year is the use of bright colors. Winter fashion tends to be associated with darker shades, but spring brings a burst of vibrancy. Adding pops of bold colors to your wardrobe with accessories such as handbags, scarves, and shoes can enliven any outfit. Alternatively, opt for eye-catching and distinctive clothing pieces like blouses, dresses, and jackets.
<br>
<br>
Florals are a traditional design that resurfaces every spring, but they have taken on a stronger twist this year. Designers are straying away from tiny and classic floral motifs and towards more abstract, bigger, and more vivid designs. These eye-catching floral designs may be worn with anything, from dresses to blouses to jeans.

<br>
<br>
Ankle boots are a perennial favorite for mid-season footwear due to their versatility and ability to complement a wide range of outfits. However, if you're seeking something different, mules, loafers, or sneakers are equally popular options to consider.
<br>
<br>
Denim is always in style, and this season is no exception. Denim jackets, jeans, and skirts are all fashionable and practical choices for this time of year. Experimenting with various denim washes, from light to dark, can help you create a unique and personalized style.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/2023/03/mid-season-wardrobe-update-with-saks.html" style="display: block; text-align: center; "><img alt="" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="750" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR8Jl1p-CZCiV8CueUtJeLwGz3dtGxonggYtfgiJJvtwk4Uxjbn1ONMPdNrYdJO8PcLgXONqg6SVbAo9Gf3nTbTRfGflX5LYuY9G5eb2GLHXtDmWKrd-gM4gbPv7L8OBq8gY-kMIGdQGahRmizG3oRm4s7tOGlISDXn4e1OEESq3tDGp-XkcsFNw_XkA/s1600/05%20Mid-Season%20Wardrobe%20Update%20with%20Saks%20Fifth%20Avenue%20anadegenaar.com.jpg"/></a></div>
<br>
<br>
Finally, accessories are an excellent way to elevate an outfit without breaking the bank. Statement earrings, colorful necklaces, and layered bracelets are all popular choices this season. Consider topping off your look with a chic hat or sunglasses to exude elegance and sophistication.
<br>
<br>
The mid-season shift from winter to spring presents an exciting opportunity to explore and experiment with new fashion trends. Whether you opt for layering, vibrant colors, bold florals, or classic denim pieces, there are endless possibilities for creating a distinct and personalized style. By infusing a touch of creativity, you can breathe new life into your wardrobe and greet the new season with confidence and panache.

In a world where everything seems to be about the hustle and bustle, it's important to take a step back and appreciate the simple beauty of nature. That's exactly what <a href="https://www.instagram.com/orijins/">Orijins</a> in Dubai does. Designed by <a href="https://www.vshd.net/projects/orijins/">VSHD</a>, this coffee shop is a testament to the elegance of nature's flaws and a harmonious blend of contrasting shapes, textures, and furnishings.
<br>
<br>
One of the most distinctive elements of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/orijins/">Orijins</a> is its color scheme, which draws inspiration from the soft tones of sand, shells, stone, and wood. The result is a minimalist space that exudes the natural beauty of its surroundings. The coffee bar, the focal point of the shop, is a unique, curved design crafted from a variety of marbles and serves as an anchor for the establishment.
<br>
<br>
The serene ambiance of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/orijins/">Orijins</a> is further enhanced by the interplay of light and shadow created by the sun's reflection on the walls. The handcrafted brushed metal wall lamps and spotlights provide a touch of understated glamour to the space, making it a tranquil retreat for coffee aficionados and anyone seeking a peaceful escape.

<br>
In a world where everything seems to be about speed and efficiency, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/orijins/">Orijins</a> reminds us to slow down and appreciate the beauty of nature's imperfections.

<br>
Minimalist fashion has long been a polarizing topic, with some embracing its simplicity and elegance, while others find it too restrictive and lacking in personality. Some people are drawn to the idea of building a capsule wardrobe and the simplicity that comes with it, while others fear that their personalities will be washed away by the "basicness" of minimalist fashion. However, there is a growing movement of designers who are pushing the boundaries of minimalism and infusing their designs with unique elements and personality.
<br>
<br>
One such designer is <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/sarabergman" rel="nofollow">Sara Bergman</a>. Her eponymous brand is focused on not-so-basic basics–with each piece carefully crafted by hand in a small workshop in Portland, Oregon. Her designs focus on intriguing cut outs, flattering lines, durability, and freedom of movement.

And we're back! A season of living vicariously through images returns and we beging with an escape to the secluded luxury of the Y hotel photographed by talented architectural photographer, <a href="http://jlap.com/en/projects/commissioned/y-hotel-kitchen/">Jonathan Leijonhufvud</a>.
<br>
<br>
The hotel isnestled in the heart of Nanxia Mountain's Jiyang District in the picturesque city of Sanya. Known for its breathtaking sea views, Sanya offers a unique and exclusive experience for discerning travelers in search of a tranquil and rejuvenating vacation.
<br>
<br>
The Y hotel provides a haven of peace and seclusion, surrounded by rolling hills and lush forests, providing a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of the city. Guests will find solace in the secluded residential setting, allowing them to truly relax and unwind.
<br>
<br>
The landscape design of the Y hotel has been meticulously crafted to reflect the natural surroundings, creating a harmonious balance between the built and natural environment — adopting the concept of "simple but spiritual", the hotel offers a tranquil atmosphere that soothes the soul and provides a haven of peace and quiet.

<br>
Testing the mic. Hi. Anyone there? — OK, I know it seems like I fell off the face of the earth... and I sort of did, but wait, it was for a good reason. Or should I say reasons? Yes, I took some time off this (whatever this blog has become) to focus on some things and people that I love dearly and one of those things was a project that I’ve had in mind for ages now.
<br>
<br>
After (literal) years of not having or making time for writing, I sat down one day after pondering an idea for what seemed like a split second... and I decided to write a guide to help you—yes you, Pinterest-obsessed human—to make passive income off of your Pinterest efforts. And here I am months down the line, having completed it, to tell you, "Hey! How about turning your Pinterest obsession into a money-making machine?".
<br>
<br>
We all know times are tough, and we all could use an additional stream of income, right? — Well, I decided to go ahead and just write because I’m one of the lucky ones who’s benefited from turning my Pinterest into a business and seizing many opportunities that come from it... so why don’t you hop into this boat and start capitalizing on something you probably never thought could be more than a hobby or a distraction? I think I heard a "Yes!".
<br>
<br>
In my new guide, “Curated”, you will learn the nooks and crannies of Pinterest... and you'll be able to stack the odds in your favor. I’ve managed to write everything you’ll need, to go from Pinterest user to Pinterest Boss in a 90-page e-book... and let me just say, I know for a fact you won’t be disappointed.
<br>
<br>
So go ahead <a href="https://anaarstudio.gumroad.com/l/curated"><b>buy my book</b></a> and turn your Pinterest world upside down.

<br>
<br>
The way most minimalists approach color—specially the ones who jumped on the bandwagon as the minimalism fever was starting is a bit limited and we all know that. And even though that contrary to what many believe, black, white and beige are colors, I can also support that we need to stop being so afraid of all the other colors in the wheel.
<br>
<br>
My constant urge to always question everything that looks "ruly" convinced me very early that there wasn't a point in simplifying, cutting down and making everything functional if that deprived me or anyone else of the joy that life brings and even if you are adept to the thinking that colors that veer from the old black and white (maybe some grey in there) isn't minimalism, you surely can agree that different strokes for different folks and that there is an inherit sense of joy that some colors bring to people's life and it would be pointless to remove that just for the sake of minimalism.
<br>
<br>
If you, reading this feel daunted by the task of adding more color into your life / interiors and are holding back from fear that you will regret painting that wall or buying that set of <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bKkLN">blue sheets</a> (that would be me) or maybe you just want to finally get some artwork on your walls let me tell you this: You won't regret doing something that will lift up your mood and that gives you a sense of new possibilities.
<br>
<br>
The way to introduce color into a minimalist home is "slowly" and also mindfully:
<br>
<br>
1. Don't tackle a big change but small changes and stick to the values of one in-one out so that you don't end up accumulating unnecessary things
<br>
2. Add pops of color first; a vase, a pillow or maybe a nice coffee mug to replace that dodgy old white one with coffee stains stuck at the bottom—we've all had one of those, os is that just me?
<br>
3. Stick to a palette by making two colors the base—let's say beige and black (let's give harsh whites a little rest)—and work around that adding complimentary pops of color like desaturated blues, earthy greens or muted yellows, whatever tickles your fancy but in a way it makes sense for you in your minimalist life
<br>
4. If you're not ready to paint the walls add texture to it or a nice piece of minimal art
<br>
5. If all of the mentioned above still scares you, bring in nature, whether a new plant or maybe flowers in a color you never got — and on that, I have to confess I spent years getting white flowers and clearly missing out. So bring in the hydrangeas, the daisies, the sunflowers — you name it
<br>
<br>
Personally, I've never had anything against color but it just didn't make sense in my life before. Now I enjoy a beautiful beige surrounding with big pops of black, blues and greens and is it just me or does that dining room seem incredibly inviting, fun and nostalgic for some reason, all that the same time?

So, turns out you're not a fan of maximalism and you're also not happy with the inflexible white and black minimalist aesthetics. Well, perhaps this Danish home designed by the one and only <a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/search?q=norm+architects" rel="nofollow">Norm Architects</a> will tickle your fancy? — I think yes and hear me out.
<br>
<br>
The <a href="https://normcph.com/architecture/vigi-house-dk/" rel="nofollow">Vigi House</a>, which is a reformed 60's home, sits on a sloping plot in Virum with high ceilings, light tunnels and open spaces. This home was intended blend in with it's natural surroundings and be a comfortable-minimal family home for its owners and that it does.
<br>
<br>
I don't know about you but one of my (maybe unhealthy) stress comping mechanisms is to vicariously pack my bags and move into wonderful houses like this one, were it looks peaceful, not stifling and quite — then I'm snapped back into reality by my neighbours drilling the walls for the 4th time this week and I thank the technology gods for the Internet.
<br>
<br>
Although we can only enjoy the <a href="https://normcph.com/architecture/vigi-house-dk/" rel="nofollow">Vigi House</a> vicariously we need to admit, it's quiet perfectly planned for a family sanctuary. As always, <a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/search?q=norm+architects" rel="nofollow">Norm Architects</a> delivers pure architectural goodness.

Today the term <a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/search/label/Minimalism">'minimalism'</a> is at the heart of conversations about sustainability, design, philosophy and mindfulness. And while maximalism continues to make its way back into people's homes, it's a new kind of maximalism—one less about buying more and more about design: more color, more shapes, more contrast.
<br>
<br>
Warm minimalist design sits in the middle of both extremes. It is not deprived of any color, shape or texture, but it's also not a very out-there or (personally) overwhelming style—and don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with some "kapow"... but warm minimal is where I currently exist and so is my current obsession.
<br>
<br>
Brands like <a href="https://menuspace.com/" target="_blank">Menu</a> have equipped the design-conscious minimalist for years now but <a href="https://menuspace.com/" target="_blank">Menu</a> has truly been a pioneer when it comes to minimal, responsible and durable design and it has long been delivering beautifully crafted furniture, lighting and interior accessories shaped by purposeful details, high-quality products—and now sustainable ones too.
<br>
<br>
Their newest products carry through their <a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/search/label/Minimalism">minimalism</a> philosophy while also bringing sustainability and a sense of warmth, calm and comfort to any space and we see it in the raw fabrics, textures, naked woods and organically-structured shapes—creating spaces that make you feel like you're in a welcoming home rather than a white room or a playhouse.

<h15>“How do you create a warm minimalist room?”, you may ask? Easy:</h15>
<br>
<br>
01. Warm Colors: Warm colors have an earthy quality to them, meaning that they are colors that can be commonly observed in nature; like the sea, vegetation, land, stones, the sky etc.—as opposed to plain white, which, yes, brings a lot of brightness to a room. These colors help you bring in warmth. But I’m not just talking about your walls, I mean decor items, furniture and everything that comprises a room.
<br>
<br>
02. Rich Textures: 'Touch' is one of the qualities we overlook the most when it comes to decorating our homes—and this is what brings that sense of "homeliness" to a home. Consider adding natural elements to a room, textured fabrics, naked wood and rugs.
<br>
<br>
03. Mix Old and New: The combination of modern and vintage has always been a winner, so don't be afraid to bring in a family relic or think that it won't fit your minimalist principles ... because it will! Sustainability is at the heart of the minimalist philosophy, so whatever you can do to repurpose, all the better. Old furniture or decor pieces also usually have more character, which allows the decor to feel more interesting and unique.
<br>
<br>
04. Think Comfort: <a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/search/label/Minimalism">Minimalism</a> often feels stiff and uninviting, especially if we have the frame of mind that things just have to be functional. Things around us do need to be functional ... but also beautiful, significant and yes, comfortable. So, bring in softer sofas, mushy pillows, big throws, delicious bedding and soft rugs. Things that make you experience a sense of being embraced by them.
<br>
<br>
05. Add Personal Touches: While <a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/search/label/Minimalism">minimalism</a> used to be a little deprived of sentiment, now we understand that there are things we can still have in our homes because they simply bring us good memories and joy. Take out old photos and items you've collected from your travels and make them a part of the entire decor. This will undoubtedly infuse the room with more personality and uniqueness.
<br>
<br>
Warm Minimalism is about being conscientious but not deprived. Is about understanding and applying the principles of <a href="https://www.anadegenaar.com/search/label/Minimalism">Minimalism</a> without feeling as if you're missing out. It's about choosing better, more <a href="https://menuspace.com/" target="_blank">durable</a>, <a href="https://menuspace.com/" target="_blank">sustainable</a> and <a href="https://menuspace.com/" target="_blank">enjoyable</a> things and not just <i>less</i> for the sake of it.

<br>
No, you didn’t read it wrong. I put "melancholic" and "holiday" in the same title. Let me tell you why: Here in our neck of the woods, beachgoers suffered a significant beach withdrawal, which seemed to have no end during the pandemic; and those who had always just taken it for granted started regretting not having taken advantage of ocean life more often. So when they magnanimously freed us, we and our pets flocked to the beaches, which smacked of a cautionary tale for a new variant... so as a mostly responsible, post-pandemic being, I decided to continue not to partake in the beach festivities—until one day we decided to take a day trip to a beach 2 hours away from home to satisfy our desire to splash about in the warm ocean water. It happened to be a very quiet, secluded beach... and as we reached our destination, we realized it had gone from a very sunny, blue-skied day to drab and overcast.
<br>
<br>
Long story short, it didn’t rain that day but it remained moody.
<br>
<br>
We took a stroll down the quietest stretch of beach I’ve been to in years; the air was chilly and it felt incredible. We ended up staying the night at a petit hotel owned by a French man who exalts privacy and peace to the point of not welcoming children... while admitting pets. That day is fixed in my mind as a beautiful memory of a short-lived, moody holiday.

In a week where it feels like the weather has risen to merciless degrees, I find myself drawn to the soothing and cooling darkness of these interiors; and as contradictory as this might sound, I happen to think natural light is everything – but at the same time I also prioritize dark and moody ambiences in my home, because at this point in time everything feels like a smack of sensory overload and my mind feels more at easy in the moodiness of a darker room. I do feel strongly about the images shared here... and perhaps you do too.

<br>
Despite the fact that we are more tech savvy than ever before, it seems like there may be a disconnect in our understanding that humans—especially little humans—have an innate need to learn at their own pace and in environments that allow for their uniqueness, natural abilities and creativity to surface.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<blockquote><h20>“A man does not just happen; he does not just grow like a flower.”</h20></blockquote>
<br>
<br>
Maria Montessori came to this understanding a very long time ago, and in the 1800’s she opened Casa Bambini; a school with the preposterous proposal of a child-focused method as opposed to a content-focused method – where they could cultivate their own interests... and doing so with the support of their teachers who served as guides rather than authorities.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<widgetic id="62cead40ecb2a1660a8b4569" resize="fill-width" width="750" height="1000" autoscale="on" adaptive="414"></widgetic><script async src="https://widgetic.com/sdk/sdk.js"></script>
<br>
<br>
To the initial shock of many who thought a child was to be handled and catered to, Maria’s "Montessori" method proved what we now know to be obvious:
<br>
<br>
Children are much less frustrated in the learning process when they have tools and furniture that are child-sized – scaled to their level. Children also respond very positively when their environment is calm and orderly... and have better confidence and self esteem when taught to do things for themselves.
<br>
<br>
In short, the Montessori method showed parents that early childhood education should not simply fill a child with facts, but rather actually stimulate their natural desire to learn. And so it spread to many schools and eventually reached peoples' households as well – having really caught on over the last 5 years as it began to be adopted by parents who live out mindfulness and minimalism values.
<br>
<br>
A Montessori environment at home creates a system of freedom and ease for all involved, allowing the parents to become encouraging guides instead of authoritarian figures – and children feel supported rather than managed, having the time and space to make discoveries, gain independence and participate in daily life activities as a whole.
<br>
<br>
Creating a Montessori system at home is easy, especially nowadays when we have companies like <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/WoodjoyCollection">Woodjoy</a> that are committed to helping parents apply its principles at home.
<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/WoodjoyCollection">Woodjoy</a> is a 5-star company based on Montessori principles, creating multifunctional furniture at child-level but that serve children and the whole family at the same time. That's what makes them stand out.

<br>
<br>
<h15>How to create a Montessori home?</h15>
<br>
<br>
A prepared environment: Observing your children at play is the best way to learn what they’re naturally interested in – which will tell you how to lay out their tools (and what tools to provide for them).
<br>
<br>
Have a place for everything and everything in its place: an organized play and learning environment allows children to be self-sufficient and focus on one activity at a time.
<br>
<br>
Always choose quality and purposeful toys: Montessori toys are often made of wood, they are long-lasting, functional, non-toxic and durable. <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/WoodjoyCollection">Woodjoy</a> offers a vast selection of multifunctional and harmonious toys at a fair price.
<br>
<br>
<h15>How do I transition to a Montessori method?</h15>
<br>
<br>
<h15>Child-level furniture:</h15>
<br>
Tables, chairs and furniture used in the child’s learning experience should, as Maria Montessori proved, be at child level. This <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/WoodjoyCollection">Woodjoy</a> <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/894345767/child-montessori-clothing-rack-type-b?click_key=23cac5f23b5943ba1e3a25568258ee6445c508e4%3A894345767&click_sum=148292fe&ref=shop_home_feat_2&pro=1">clothing rack</a>, for example, will give your child the right amount of independence and a huge sense of confidence by allowing them to pick an outfit from a small, season-appropriate selection of outfits.
<br>
<br>
<h15>Involve your children in active learning, not passive entertainment:</h15>
<br>
Stay away from modern toys that do everything for the child and instead pick furniture and items that allowed them to create their own entertainment and learn to become self sufficient like this <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1117424185/toy-kitchen-by-woodjoy-type-a1-pretend?click_key=73eb68c616ce6fdd8162ab74f5103c490fc8c88c%3A1117424185&click_sum=56c6b91c&ref=shop_home_feat_5&pro=1">pretend kitchen</a> by <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/WoodjoyCollection">Woodjoy</a>, where they can create their own story line and unleash their imagination.
<br>
<br>
<h15>Create a system:</h15>
<br>
Having less toys and less activities at any given time allows children to build their concentration and develop mastery of any one particular skill at a time – so it’s a lot less overwhelming for the child. Instead of displaying baskets full of toys where little toy soldiers go to die, use a toy display system like this <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/875344040/montessori-mini-shelf-white?click_key=10e1145ade7acf9f677662436af46e6480775b09%3A875344040&click_sum=7436c59d&ref=shop_home_active_95&pro=1">mini shelf</a> where a small selection of toys are displayed and used... and then rotate the selection to bring in a new round of learning and entertainment.
<br>
<br>
<h15>Open-ended toys:</h15>
<br>
blocks, puzzles, animal figurines and books. Always pick toys like this <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1011229467/set-of-12-wooden-colored-houses-shapes?click_key=b1a3b7a5844b9c3b7326fea9dad617d27868c4b2%3A1011229467&click_sum=0004c690&ref=shop_home_active_56&pro=1">wooden colored houses</a> that allow your child to create a different story or a system that fits into the narrative they are creating.
<br>
<br>
The advantages of transforming your home to allow your children to have freedom and independence are many – and while some might think this is a little over the top, it actually creates a respectful environment in which children learn to establish limits for themselves and others; it fills them with a sense of freedom and independence, allows them to learn organically without impositions by a system that doesn’t encourage them to be themselves and in turn helps them to be happier and more secure children that grow up to be responsible for themselves and aware of others.
<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/WoodjoyCollection">Woodjoy</a> helps you create a nurturing environment with an atmosphere of learning, love, warmth and kindness at home, which is not only beneficial to the children but also to us parents.

Keeping with the color theme of late … remember when I wrote about timeless-affable beige and explained how I love it paired with earthy colors and raw textures? Well, let me tell you that while I do love the combination—and I mostly think they go perfectly well together because I love nature and all it has to offer—beige with touches of black might just be my favorite combination for now (right this very second). I know I've already told you about how lovely beige is — but really, isn't it so elegant-yet-not-stuffy coupled with with a hint of black? I think so.

As a human being who's lived on this blue marble for over 35 years, I've long been obsessed with the color blue. You should see the number of skyline and seascape images stored on my camera roll. On second thought... maybe you shouldn't. But trust me, there are way too many. Yet, I happen to be very particular when it comes to man-made hues of blue – gravitating towards either soft muted blues or very rich cobalt blues, like the ones above.
