Deco-confession: I don’t like things or objects hanged behind the bed headboard. I like to decorate the sides, but not the part over the head. I made one exception in the Blue Apartment, where I hanged a beautiful wood rosette that we bought in Thailand, during our honey moon.But when we moved here I decided to keep the space above the… View Post
This week on my coffee table: Decorate with flowers
When I was in London I had the chance to buy the new book of the “Decorate serie”, the third chapter after Decorate and Decorate workshop. Decorate with flowers, is a collaboration between Holly Becker {that doesn’t need presentations!} and Leslie Shrewing, a Canadian stylist and photographer with degrees in both architecture and interior design. It’s full of inspirations and practical… View Post

This week on my coffee table: IKEA the book
Few days ago I went to Ikea Eindhoven to spy the new PS collection. Unfortunately, the store didn’t put all the items on the same place, but they are in fact spread all over the different departments. That made my tour more like a treasure hunting! But the real revelation was the book I’m going to present you: IKEA the book…. View Post
Crochet kindle cover
When I was in London I bought myself a Kindle..not an impulsive buy to be honest, I was planning to have one for quite long. The fact is that it’s almost impossible to buy books in italian here and, some books, I like to read them in my own language. Buy a Kindle is the perfect solution: I can easly download… View Post
A chair, just for fun
The “kitchen file” for the right part, is slowly coming together.

I never had the opportunity to make a proper tutorial because, let’s face it, it would be too simple! The only things… View Post
