Hello Lovelies,  today I want to share a quick post how I build a bench sort of thingy in my living room. I don`t need extra storage or something but wanted to have something behind my sofa,  to put a lamp or some plants on it.
So it is technically not a bench with space for storage,
it is simply a white board... So I did build this, okay you can`t consider this building.

I simply got me 4 of the shelf mounting triangles and  an old wooden board I had around and mounted it to the wall. Simple as that!

Oh but I did paint it though, so some effort was involved for sure... ;)

And here it is all finished! Oh wait some cleaning was involved too... ;)

But now, with some decorations on and stuff ;)





I think it is a simple and effective way to get you some more decorative looks... I for my self like it a lot! ;)
If you want to know how I did the pendant lamps above the coffee table or how the painting above the sofa came along or how the coffee and side table got their looks, simply check out…

Hello Lovelies, I thought of making a tutorial for you on this DIY but thank God Pinterest has it all! ;)
If you like just hop on there and find what you are searching for or simply go to the  beautiful Lucy from Craftberry Bush! Because if you type in "paper juju hat" her blog pops out anyways, so save you some time and go there in the first place... She did it and it came out perfectly! ;)
But I simply assume,  when you are reading some DIY blogs that you are capable of using some scissors and a glue gun, you can handle some craft paper. And you also can make some pretty DIY`s!  Right?!;)

On mine I used some crepe paper  in silver and white and some brown packaging paper in light brown.

These were my inspirations right here, so beautiful...
(Source) These colors were by far my favorites.
(Source) By far the best decorating ideas... and again, love these neutral colors.

So pretty, right?
So what`s the fuzz, would you think. "Why don`t go and buy you some?…

Hello Lovelies,  so, here we go I finally finished my hall... I finished it some time ago, but as always pretty dark here,  wanted to have some nice natural light to shoot. And this is what I came up with.

I did the full program here ;) Painted stairwell, walls, ceiling. Painted a mural on the wall like you can see. Added a new lamp, trim and a little shelf. Put some decorations up and it was done!
Wanna see the before? This was in 2010

and january 2011.

Kind of liked the butterflies but not the wall color or lamp and so many other things.
And I started the mural like this, with a stencil, wasn`t happy at all with it, so used it a bit, than went free hand... and liked it much more...

So on to the after photos, shall we?

Up the stairs we go... We have two entries, the main one through our living room and the second one belongs to my landlords but I use it frequently because my studio is in their basement as well and they love our cats so they can stay with them when we are out to work…

Hello Lovelies, 
 here is the post for the March challenge "botanical Zoom  @URBAN JUNGLE BLOGGERS ! With many zoomy pictures for you to enjoy.. Some close ups of my succulents, cacti and other greenery...
I also thought about the colors which are living in these beautiful plants and brought them out for you too...  I pared the spiky and leafy, the pooky and flowerly... ;) But see yourself!
 Enjoy ;)
