What better way to embrace the season as spring approaches than by creating your herb garden at your Aperto Living apartment? Cultivating herbs not only adds a touch of greenery but also provides a source of fresh, aromatic ingredients for your culinary adventures. Let’s delve into how you can kickstart your herb spring garden in the heart of your apartment.

Choosing the Perfect Spot

Space is often a precious commodity in apartment living, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a thriving herb garden. Look for well-lit areas that receive ample sunlight, such as windowsills or balcony spaces. Consider vertical gardening solutions or hanging pots to maximize your available space. At Aperto Living, we understand the importance of bringing nature indoors, and your herb garden is the perfect way to do so.

Herbs and Plants to Start Growing

When embarking on your herb spring garden journey, consider starting with herbs that are versatile and easy to grow in apartment settings. Basil, mint, rosemary, and thyme are excellent choices. These herbs add flavor to your dishes and emit delightful fragrances, enhancing your apartment’s ambiance. Select compact varieties or utilize small containers to optimize your space effectively.

Explore beyond herbs by incorporating small plants like cherry tomatoes, chives, or dwarf peppers. These additions complement your herb garden and diversify your home-grown produce.

At Aperto Living, we encourage residents to embrace the joy of growing at home. Cultivating your own herbs and plants adds a personal touch to your apartment and promotes a sustainable and healthy lifestyle.

Additions can change your apartment quickly and easily without having to make major renovations. For example, upcycling an old ladder to become a small planter you can place near your window is one great way to add something to your space that helps you nail that springtime vibe. A few other modern apartment DIY ideas to get you started include finding new furniture that incorporates floral elements or adding a backsplash featuring removable prints to your kitchen with spring themes.

If you lease from Aperto Living, you are likely to live in one of their 125 properties in the southwest regions of the US. Typical residences are comfortable and stylish low-rises, such as the Cathedral Gardens in Portland, OR, or Peterson Place in Bay Folsom, CA. Aperto features apartment living 125 properties in total in western US cities. The cozy, yet well-appointed units feature big bedrooms with walls and floors in neutral colors, that are easy to turn into a peaceful retreat from the world.

Bedroom Furniture

Regarding bedroom furnishings, apartment trends for 2024 are all about changing the color of your furniture, rugs, and linens rather than painting the apartment walls. Painting your bedroom furniture in shades of blue, gold, silver, and pink is better than altering the walls, as you could sacrifice your damage deposit when you move out. Apartment trends include all things French Provincial, including tall armoires and elaborate dressing tables, as well as elaborate mirrors and fun chairs shaped like high-heel shoes.

Finding the Perfect Zen & Mood

Find your apartment’s zen spots by cleaning up all clutter. Ensure all your clothes are stowed away in trunks, baskets, or closets. Buy yourself a great laundry basket on wheels so clothes never end up on the bed or the floor. Laying a pink rug, and a few big cushions on the floor transforms your bedroom into a reading and meditation space.

Modern Apartment DIY

To keep things inexpensive and protect your walls and floors from damage, it is best to keep your changes temporary. DIY apartment ideas include using a projector to display starry patterns on your walls and gathered fabric to give a wall a theatrical effect. Even small changes, such as tying ribbons to your bed posts or turning on a few electric candles, can dramatically transform the mood of your sleeping quarters.

Embrace A New Style This Year

If Aperto Living is your landlord, you are likely to live in one of their retro, but trendy walk-up buildings such as the Sun Ray Apartments in Phoenix, AZ, or the Hidden Cove Apartments in Bay Point, CA.

The trick is to install the latest apartment essentials without hammering a single nail into the wall.

Preparing for the Busy Schedule

If you just signed a lease with Aperto, then you know you have made an agreement not to damage the floors or walls, or possibly risk forfeiting your damage deposit. If you are turning over a new leaf for 2024, starting by removing any current decor that conflicts with your taste, and start researching new trends, such as the Parisian Style. This easiest of apartment styles is characterized by lamps with a glass base, curved furniture and fruit-inspired decor.

Avoid Chaos to Enjoy the Seasons

Prepare for the New Year by adhering to apartment styles that serve to keep your apartment tidy. Consider stashing away your papers and old photographs in vintage red suitcases stacked on top of each other. Organize your kitchen with utensil stands, to help keep kitchen counters clutter-free.

New Trends for Apartment Living

New trends for apartment living in 2024 include adding every shade of the color pink to your decor. Thankfully, you don’t have to paint the entire apartment pink, but you can add accent furniture, pillows and ottomans to add a pastel color to your life. In fact, the ultimate trophy object would be the kind of round dressing table that you would find in a Barbie dollhouse. If pink is not your color, consider showcasing one pink vase to make a statement.

Staying Clutter-Free

As we step into the New Year, many of us are eager to declutter and organize our living spaces. However, not all organizing tips are created equal. Let’s explore some common pitfalls and debunk apartment organization trends that may hinder rather than help you achieve a clutter-free and stylish living space.

  1. Overzealous DeclutteringWhile decluttering is essential, beware of overzealous purging. The key is to strike a balance between keeping what sparks joy and maintaining functionality. Over-decluttering may leave your apartment feeling stark and devoid of personality. Instead, focus on thoughtful organization that enhances your living space without sacrificing individuality.
  2. Ignoring Hidden StorageMany organization trends emphasize open storage solutions, but in an apartment setting, embracing hidden storage is crucial. Invest in furniture with concealed compartments or utilize under-bed storage solutions. This approach not only maximizes your space but also maintains a clean and streamlined look, free from the visual chaos of exposed belongings.

Don’t Buy Into These Apartment Trends

In the world of apartment living, staying organized is an ongoing challenge. However, certain trends may promise quick fixes but end up being counterproductive. Here are a few apartment organization trends to approach with caution in the New Year.

  1. Excessive MinimalismMinimalism is a popular trend, but excessive minimalism can make your apartment feel cold and unwelcoming. Instead of stripping away all decorative elements, opt for a curated approach. Introduce a few meaningful decorations or artworks that bring personality to your space without overwhelming it.
  2. One-Size-Fits-All SolutionsBeware of falling for organization solutions that claim to be universally effective. Every apartment is unique, and what works for one may not work for another. Tailor your organization strategy to fit your specific needs and the layout of your apartment. Customization is key to achieving lasting order.

In conclusion, as you embark on your journey to a more organized and clutter-free apartment in the New Year, be mindful of these pitfalls. Find the right balance between decluttering and maintaining a cozy, personalized space.
