But first, a little introduction...
My name is Pezo Kazadi. It's nice to have you here and welcome to my very first blog post! I thought it might be appropriate to introduce myself, so here it goes: I'm Zambian (but feel more like a global citizen), I would consider myself a pretty simple, down-to-earth person who enjoys being creative, is a little introverted and enjoys experiencing new things and traveling. If you'd like to know more, I'd be happy to answer some questions, but for the mean time, let's get to what Furn & Dec is about!
Furn & Dec is something I started and threw out into the world via Instagram, not really knowing where I was heading and what I wanted to do with it, but I realized that I wanted to connect with like-minded people in the Home Decor community and learn more about this little interest I had but had never really developed. The response and support I have been getting has been and is amazing and has led me to led me to make this website and try out blogging.
I have been a creative person all my life. I still remember doing my first fully detailed still-life drawing of a potted plant in 3rd or 4th Grade. Looking back, it wasn’t perfect but I still feel proud of it to this day. My creativity grew and developed through the years and I ended up studying Graphic Design, and so, professionally, I am a Graphic Designer. Unfortunately, life doesn't always go as we hope it should and things didn’t go as I expected for quite some time after I finished, so I have now decided to channel some of my creativity into this as well: the world of Furniture and Home Decor.
Home Decor is something that has been a growing interest for me for a long time. I love beautifully designed houses and beautiful artwork, and artwork doesn’t only mean paintings. To me, whether is was crafted for a function or without a function and is just visually pleasing, it is artwork. It’s amazing what our minds and hands can create!
As was mentioned before, I decided to start this Furn & Dec blog so I can share my love for Home Decor with people and connect with others who are in the range of being ‘just curious’ to those really passionate about it. It would be great to learn from each other and collaborate with some of you. This blog space will also be a place where Home Decor tips will be shared, great products will be recommended and it is my wish to make it a place you could gather inspiration from. I plan to talk about different styles of home decor with you as well as ways of getting great results with affordable products and DIY methods off decorating your home.
Whether you’re just starting out, got your first place and want to add a few creative touches, or you’ve been doing this for a while and you might want to upgrade the style of your home I hope that this site and blog will be useful to you as more posts come out (hopefully on Tuesdays).
If you are dying to know about certain products or topics, or if you have any recommendations, I would love to hear from you and get to know you better. Your feedback will always be appreciated and feel free to leave your comments down below.
Let’s live in beautiful spaces!
