... Read moreWow, I can't believe another month flew by! I'm so excited to share my November 'What's On My iPhone' setup with you all. This month, I really leaned into a super cozy, neutral aesthetic, mixing soft beige app icons with warm brown aesthetic widgets. It just feels so calming every time I unlock my phone, and honestly, it sparks a little joy!
Let's dive into my home screen inspo for November. I always start by picking a theme, and this time, it was all about warm, earthy tones. My main home screen, as you can see, features a beautiful arrangement of transparent and frosted app icons. I love how these blend seamlessly with my wallpaper, making everything look so clean and uncluttered. For essential apps like FaceTime, Calendar, Photos, Camera, and Notes, I opted for these subtle, understated icons. It’s a little trick that makes your phone feel less like a tool and more like a personal accessory.
One of my absolute favorite additions this month is the 'Lucky Girl Syndrome' text widget. It’s a little daily affirmation that reminds me to stay positive – 'I am so lucky everything works out for me.' Having that right on my home screen is such a mood booster! I also added a 'Don't forget to be thankful' widget, which pairs perfectly with the Thanksgiving season vibe. Further down, you might spot a 'HANG IN THERE BABY' widget, which is a fun, encouraging touch.
For my widget choices, I went all out on the brown aesthetic. I found these adorable cinnamon roll widgets and a cozy plaid blanket widget that just scream 'autumn hygge' to me. They add so much warmth and personality without being too distracting. You can even see some personal touches like a red ribbon widget and a golden vinyl record – these are little nods to things I love and make my phone truly *mine*. And yes, those couple photos, even with an ultrasound, are a special part of my personal widgets, reminding me of important moments.
Now, you might be wondering how I get those gorgeous neutral aesthetic iPhone icons. It’s actually simpler than you think! There are tons of resources on Lemon8 (and other platforms) where creators share icon packs. I usually look for packs that offer a range of beige iphone icons or even custom transparent ones. For specific apps like Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and even Lemon8 itself, finding matching neutral app icons really ties the whole look together. Don't forget your utility apps like Weather, Clock, App Store, Health, and Settings – even these can be customized for a cohesive look.
A little tip for anyone wanting to achieve a similar vibe: play around with different widget sizes and positions. I love stacking some of my less-used widgets, or using Smart Stacks to maximize space. And don't shy away from transparent widgets; they are game-changers for a minimalist, clean aesthetic. My phone home screen settings icon close up also features a subtle, customized look, ensuring even the smallest details fit the theme. Experimenting with different fonts for text widgets can also make a huge difference.
So, if you're looking for some fresh home screen inspo, I highly recommend diving into the world of neutral and beige aesthetics. It's an easy way to refresh your digital space and make your phone feel more 'you'!
Can you do a tutorial on how you do this once you do the December one?
