Last year, around this time, I launched my first temporary and limited collection of wooden bead garlands, that was sold out in a day!This year the collections are two: on one side you can find a lovely wooden bead candles holder, perfect to cheer up and decorate the Christmas table {but I would use it all year long!} and on… View Post
The new Happy House attic III
Step by step the works for Enea’s new bedroom are coming to an end.My old studio is now divided in two different spaces thanks to the glass wall {waiting for a second coat of white}. The project is a little different than the initial idea: instead of the wood wall, I decided to paint it using the Flexa denim drift…. View Post
Advent calendar #IDAstyle
I never made an advent calendar before, but this year I decided to give it a try with Enea. He’s not a little baby anymore and even if he’ll not understand the meaning, it’s a nice moment that we can share with him waiting for Christmas.I simply packed the presents using wrapping paper and I added the numbers I bought last year… View Post
Christmas wish list 2016
Here I am, approx one month in advance {so, “my” Santa can’t find excuses!}, with the traditional Christmas wish list.Something for me, for the house and for the kids..I know I’m lucky anyway even without all these gifts, but let me dream!

DIY: advent candles #IDAstyle
It’s almost time to start the Christmas countdown!And that means that is also time to light the candles on for the next four Sundays {see the 2012 and 2015 edition}.This year I decided to use as a base the old cake pot that I turned into a flower pot last year: I love the color and I think it fits… View Post

The suitcase was already at the entrance, and I was super excited, so you can imagine how disappointed I was.The two days event was focussed on Printed Decoration and how HP is… View Post
“Hygge cushion” and “Rainbow and clouds garland”
I don’t make crochet cushions for myself anymore, I have too many and no space left! But making a granny square cushion is always fun, I like to combine the colors and see the final result..it’s like magic. That’s why I made a new one that I finished in the last evenings after I came back from Lisbon. It’s available… View Post

“Hygge” #IDAstyle
Lo dico da tanto, da quando per la prima volta mi sono imbattuta nei meravigliosi e accoglienti ambienti nordici, in particolare svedesi e danesi, con le loro atmosfere luminose in estate e accoglienti e piacevoli in inverno.Se dovessi scegliere un Paese dove trasferirmi sarebbe la Danimarca, anche se {sorpresa!}, non ci sono mai stata! Un trasferimento sulla fiducia insomma. C’è… View Post
