To celebrate 10,000 downloads and thank you all for subscribing and tuning in to the show, I have a very special bonus episode for you today.As you may know by now, this season of the podcast is all about circular fashion. But home goods actually have a LOT in common with fashion.First off: a lot of home goods are made with textiles: meaning they too can be made from linen and cotton, recycled materials, or virgin synthetic oil-based fabrics like polyester.And interior design has always evolved over the years. But also just like the fashion industry, it has been following faster and faster trend cycles. And this is due in part to furniture and home goods getting cheaper, both in price — and quality.But, another similarity that home furnishings and decor has to fashion, is that we can follow a lot of the same principles for conscious home as we can for conscious fashion.And in today's bonus episode, I'm chatting with a secondhand and sustainable home expert to teach us all about how we can decorate and design our homes more mindfully: Nina Verduin of Homebody, which is a slow living interior design studio.Nina started Homebody to show how to intentionally style beautiful, cozy homes that encourage us to slow down, let go of stuff, and make conscious decisions.  In today's episode, Nina is sharing:Why sustainable furniture & home decor mattersHow we can get started with sustainable interior designHow to make the most of the furnishings and decor pieces we haveThe benefits of choosing secondhand home goodsPlus, her tips for secondhand home shopping And, advice for making all those existing pieces and secondhand pieces feel cohesive in your space  FULL SHOW NOTES & TRANSCRIPThttps://www.consciouslifeandstyle.com/secondhand-home-nina-verduin-homebody/  WATCH THIS INTERVIEW ON YOUTUBE:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIKaxSd78Hqa8XA6cQf8tvg  RELEVANT LINKS:5 Easy Ways to Update a SpaceTips for Using Color in a Room27 Brands with Sustainably Sourced FurnitureEthical Home Decor Brands CONNECT WITH NINA & HOMEBODY:WebsiteInstagram CONNECT WITH CONSCIOUS STYLE:Conscious Life & Style WebsiteInstagramPinterestConscious Edit NewsletterYouTube
