I have tried to keep this home super classic as in the past, in rented\u00a0accommodation,\u00a0I have found myself buying statement pieces of furniture which I quickly got bored of! I am obsessed with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewhitecompany.com\/uk\/\">White Company<\/a>, so that\u2019s the vibe I am going for but with a bit more of a warm and homely feel to it.<\/p>\n\n<h4>How do you put schemes together?<\/h4>\n<p>I am really slow at putting rooms together actually because I don&#8217;t like to rush it. I like to let a piece of <strong>furniture<\/strong> sit and then see what should go next to make sure it all fits perfectly! It took me over a year to find the perfect <strong>bedside tables<\/strong> but it was so worth the wait. I usually start on Pinterest and Instagram where I save all of my inspiration and then make a <strong>mood-board<\/strong> which I work from!<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.co.uk\/stylistsinead\/_created\/\"><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3439\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Image-3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"827\" height=\"1011\" srcset=\"https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Image-3.png 245w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Image-3-600x733.png 600w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Image-3.png 768w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Image-3.png 450w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Image-3.png 225w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Image-3.png 20w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Image-3.png 827w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Discover Sinead\u2019s everyday outfit ideas and neutral d\u00e9cor at her <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.co.uk\/stylistsinead\/_created\/\"><em>Pinterest<\/em><\/a><em> account and <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sineadcrowe\/\"><em>Instagram<\/em><\/a><em> channels <\/em><\/p>\n\n<h4>Do you find Instagram or Pinterest helpful?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes!
