Newlyweds’ Greenpoint Home {Home Tour}

Christine’s little sister Lydia Meintjes (now Van der Spuy) needs no introduction here on The Pretty Blog. You’ve seen her bridal shower and her wedding, and now we bring you her home. Lydia and her hubby Lance tied the knot in April, and moved into a two bedroom cottage in Greenpoint. In the past four months they have turned the house into a happy place they can call home.
Lydia likes clean, simple design and when it was time to decorate her home deciding on a colour scheme was easy. As far as Lydia is concerned there are only two options, white and grey…

5 Minutes with Lydia :

My style is best described as: Simplistic, the only option when it comes to colour is white and grey.

I am inspired by: Nature & Textures

I love my home because: It’s our happy place!

My home DIY projects include: Herb garden, painting our furniture white and our front garden.

I splurge on: Frames, Bowls and Macaroons

What do you love most about your home? It is our first home together. I love love love our place. We haven’t lived here in Summer, and I cannot wait to put up the fairy lights and braai outside. Best part is when Lance comes home from work, I can call it home!

I love anything to do with food {especially eating}, collecting pretty things, nesting, afternoon naps, reading and pinning. I am terrible at any kind of needle work, and I secretly envy those who can knit, sew and crochet. Freshly picked jasmin makes me happy. If I could choose my last meal on earth it, would be warm ciabatta bread with lashings of butter.
