Whether you live on acreage, have a modest backyard, a courtyard or a small balcony it is essential to have green space. Even if it’s just a planter box of herbs on the kitchen window sill.

I’m loving the concept of stacking, as featured in this post by apartmenttheray.com. I can picture a stack of my cookbooks, interior design books and fave reads next to my lounge, for easy access, functioning as a side table substitute… just as soon as I find my new home!
