- 2 min read
Your home reveals things- not in a creepy “the walls are listening” way.
More in a “ma’am, why do you own twelve empty baskets?” way.
Interior design is basically personality in furniture form and today we’re exposing ourselves.
Respectfully, always.
You Own 17 Empty Baskets

Nobody may touch them, burn them or even breathe near them.

🦌 Elafina Says:
Interior design is supposed to be fun.
Homes collect stories, habits, tiny everyday weird rituals and apparently decorative towels nobody can use.
So if you recognised yourself today…
Welcome!
You’re among friends and you're most definitely not alone.
(And yes, you may buy the basket.)
