Inspiration Bookshelves

Check out these bookshelf sideboards. Even though it could be more practical to have high bookshelves, the lower ones give the room more space. With a little help from lamps, art, flowers etc. and it will immediately result in a cozy athmosphere.

Four Friday Favourites

I have a sideboard in oak half painted in white. It has been standing in the middle of the room for almost a year now, looking at me waiting to get finished. I am thinking of maybe paint it in another colour.. just can't decide which one. I have checked different options on internet this week so my Four Friday Favourites are as follows:
















Which one is your favourite??



It's Friday, it's sunny and I will now go out on my balcony and have delicious macarons from La DurĂ©e... also these in many lovely colours.


Have a really nice weekend!!!

Beautiful rooms

Take a look at these rooms and get new ideas for your home; change your cushions, paint a furniture in high gloss black, get new art for your walls and put a fresh flower bouquet on the coffee table. The small details can make a huge difference.

All pictures are from Decorpad, a great site for interior design inspiration!







Have  a wonderful day!

Four Friday Favourites

Oh no, this week I TOTALLY forgot to give you my Four Friday's Favourites! But no worries, here it is - one day too late, sorry!

It has been sunny and warm the whole week and I have a few ideas for my balcony but as always I can't decide whether I want to keep it minimalistic in only white, black and grey or if I should go crazy with coulours. Take a look at these nice balconies and terraces and get some inspiration!

Curls!

When my hair feels messy and awful because of its unruly curls I try to find inspiration at internet by searching on pics of celebrities with beautiful curly hair. My favourite right now is the Mexican singer Paulina Rubio. Her hair is voluminous and has perfect curls.

 I want her hair now!!

Four Friday Favourites

I am back from my fabulous vacation. Unfortunately at home there is a lack of sun and high temperatures.. During my two weeks away I have got the possibility to think a lot, both of things that I have done and of things that I should do in my life. I am now full of inspiration and have many ideas to new projects and it feels wonderful, like a new start! 

This week's Four Friday Favourites are:


Studying





Traveling

Get started!

How many times haven't I thought of starting something? And how many times haven't I started something without finishing it? When you have ideas and the will to do something - do it!

Get started!

Inspiration White and Blue

The view from the sunbed during my hard days in the sun at the roof top includes the swimmingpool and some plants in giant cobalt blue pots against white walls. My first thought was related to those Greek white washed houses with blue doors, built closely to each other. White and blue is such a timeless color combination and it always works. For example white and blue Ming vases are a perfect extra detail in your home, especially when mixed with mordern furniture.

White and blue together, isn't it just beautiful?
