Finally, my home office!

Inspiration, Interior Design | 07. Feb, 2010 by Ludmila | 2 Comments

Yes, I’m so happy and excited at the same time! I didn’t have a home office so far, so I was always blogging in bed, dining table, my husband’s office and so on. And whenever I was asking when I’ll get my own office, I was hearing “eventually” :). But yesterday, finally the moment came! We bought everything we needed to DIY an office table, a chair and voila! I’m writing to you now, sitting in my cutest office :). That’s how everything happened:

DIY: Kusudama Flower

Floral Art, Inspiration, Interior Design | 04. Feb, 2010 by Ludmila | 7 Comments

Hi there! Hope you’re having a great week so far, 2 more days and it’s weekend! Today I’m here to tell you that I think I found out about one more talent that I have :). I like working with paper: cutting, gluing and so on. Today I tried once again myself in this and again I’m pretty satisfied! I made a Kusudama flower, based on Origami technology. I saw the tutorial on Cut out and keep and I knew I can make it! It’s pretty easy, not requiring so much time and it doesn’t require actually any expenses!

Here is what I got:

2 cute Kusudama flowers, with 5 and 6 petals, made of paper (for the 6 petals flower I used a recycled magazine and for the other one regular white paper).

I will do more, to reach a suitable number for a bouquet, but I also saw that Marianne from Noces de coton framed them, so I might do the same, it looks nice anyways!

DIY: Decorative Branches

Floral Art, Inspiration, Interior Design | 30. Jan, 2010 by Ludmila | 0 Comments

This is another “did it myself” creation! I like to be a DIY-er, it’s so much fun and imagine the pride you feel when you finish your master piece! Uncomparable! Ok, let’s get back to my branches. For this I used tree branches, which I found outside and which were already on the ground (I didn’t cut anything!). I brought them home, stylized them a little by cutting the parts I don’t need and guess what? I got very pretty decorative branches which could be put in some vase and admired! But, for me it was not enough, so I decided to hang some flowers to make it look more real. Paper flowers are just perfect for this, so following the tutorial which I found on Zakka Life, I got this!

Finished my memory box!

Inspiration, Interior Design | 28. Jan, 2010 by Ludmila | 2 Comments

I’m so proud!!! I always needed a place where I can keep my little things like pieces of jewelry and everything else. Until now they were all over, creating the feeling of a big mess and I hated this! So I had the great idea to make a box for them and since a regular box would look boring and cheap, I thought of making a memory box (actually I was inspired by DIY Network) :). It’s called like this, because I glued pictures on it, pictures of me and my husband ever since we started dating. First I printed the pictures, cut them and arranged them the way I needed them to be in order to cover ever single inch of that box! You can even scan or print your photos with color ink, I made them black and white, I thought this way I will achieve some vintage touch :). So, I just finished it! It looks cute and it’s bringing a lot of memories whenever I look at it!

P.S. Pictures coming soon!

DIY: Candleholders made from cement

Inspiration, Interior Design | 20. Jan, 2010 by Ludmila | 2 Comments

Hello everybody! It’s me again, again I’ll write about DIY and again Kate from Centsational Girl! You’ll ask why? Because she’s a genius! For example the idea of what I will write about now came to her during the night! For me this is enough to call her genius :). And in the middle of the night Kate thought of making candleholders from cement! We all like candles, it gives to the atmosphere a really romantic and sexy touch, doesn’t it? So, that’s why I think that the tutorial for making candleholders will be appropriate now, when we’re so close to Valentine’s Day! Meantime, check these beautiful creations and Do It Yourself! :)
