Spring touches

                     May + spring!

                              First thing that comes in your mind, is flowers!

                       Some fresh flowers around the house are a great touch!

                  When you add flowers around the house they transform

             the room and bring the freshness in!

This bouquet is from a local flower shop

Flowers in the hall entry and in the kitchen

Roses are from a friend's garden!

My new home office

 At a previous post I told you about a project my new home office  !

 Today I 'm going to saw you some pictures of it.

 It's not complete. I need to add some personal touches and a  chair!

 For now I will share with you some pics from my new space which I create in my kitchen! 

Where I blog now :)

Before

An old black office from Ikea! It was a stock item!

After

My little space! My corner!

Where I blog!

Instead of a black board I used an old wooden tray!

 I don't have a before picture but the colour of the tray was brown

My son gave me this Valentine's card ! He did it at school!

The small aqua vase is from Zara Home.

 The candle is a baptism favor of a family friend.

The stone is from Mylopotamos beach.

 I found it as it is with the shells stuck on it!

The space between the cabinet and the gypsum board is 31,5 inches (81,5 cm)

Enough space for one person :)

I need to find a chair for it. Now I use a chair from the dinning table!

New addition to my kitchen

One of my first posts was about my  kitchen . 
I don't have a small kitchen but I wanted more space.
So a few months ago  I did a small construction to my kitchen!

 I added a shelf made from gypsum board and
 a  wall made also from gypsum board 
( I wanted to create a corner for my home office ).
 With the addition of the shelf
 I succeed what I wanted and the result was really good!

after

I create a coffee  corner. More space is always welcome!

The cups are from Zara Home

The cookie jar is from IKEA.
The cookies are handcooked! Traditional Easter Cookies

What do you think of the result?

Painting time

Finally!

Today we started painting my son's room!

Actually my mom does all the painting and I just serve the drinks :)

Thank's mom for all your help!

The colour is not white is beige !

In the picture looks like white. I think..

The covers are green 'cause

the paints are eco friendly:)

I can wait to see the results....

It's Fall ....

Although the weather is still warm and the days are still sunny,

 I decided (finally) to withdraw the summer decorations

and add some touches of Fall!

This wreath I made it last Fall .

I wrote a post about it in my old blog:)

For the tutorial  click here .

This vase was full with seashells and starfish 

and  now is full with  cinnamon stiks, pine nuts, dried fruits ...

Welcome Fall ...

Time for renovation in the bedrooms of my little girl and my little boy

My kids bedrooms are on my list

 of rooms  that I 'd like to renovate!

After a lot of search, looking at magazines,

 visiting other blogs  I decided I didn't want just another kid's room!

I want their rooms  to have  character and represent  them!

I haven't decide for  the color on the walls yet,

but I  have decided for the beds!

I'm looking for low budget decoration details

and I have found some great stuff .

I want to see the final result and

I hope my children  will be happy with their new rooms!

The photos below show some of the rooms that I like  !

Very romantic..

Welcome to my kitchen

The kitchen is the room that brings the family closer.

It is a place where I create  delicious recipes.

It is  the first place I relax  in the morning for a coffee

and to prepare breakfast for  my kids .

It is the kingdom of every woman !

 I would like  to invite  you for a tour into my kitchen .

On the left is the ceramic hob. The tiles on the wall is stainless steel.

So easy to clean !

A closer look

We opted for one large sink instead for a double one!

The counter top is corian.

To the right of the sink,  this little area is where I prepare the cakes

and where the coffe is made every morning !

 In the cabinets underneath I stores  household appliances.

The bar stools are from IKEA.

I like this clock! It was a wedding gift!

I bought these frames from a trip to the USA last year.

I hope you enjoy the  tour!
