My secret source:

Secret. No, seriously, it's www.smarin.net. They make living stones, which are a collection of poufs and sofas that look like stones. I love them!

Biggest inspiration:

A book called Timeless Renovations. It’s filled with project after project of inspirational images. I could live in each and every one of them.
