What a perfect time to embrace the perfectly imperfect!
Today we explore the concept of Wabi Sabi as a trend, attitude & approach.
Wabi Sabi goes deeper than just being chill. It is an an attitude & approach to living that dates back to ancient times.
In recent years the term has crept into the home deocr venacular.
Today we discuss what it mean to approach life & home in a Wabi Sabi way, the hallmarks of the Wabi Sabi in decor and specific ways you can incorporate it in your home.
Items with patina - graceful aging - are very Wabi Sabi.
