Hello, lovelies! My friend Malin is a custom tailor and she has made me those amazing handmade birds a few days ago. :) Aren’t they more than pretty? Can’t wait for seeing them in our new apartment! :)
Mogli, my love.
Awww, my little doggy baby has grown so fast and I still love him so much! <3
Before we decided for getting a dog, we have been thinking about it for more than one year. Then, we regularly visited the local pet shelter and took several dogs for a walk to see how it feels like spending time with a dog and to get used to the new kind of responsibility. After we had decided that we wanted to have a dog, we were searching for a good dog breeder and found a wonderful woman who raises her dogs with a lot of love and has lots of experience and knowledge. We visited her and then decided to wait for the next litter. Then, we first saw Mogli when he was 4 weeks old and this was the day we have chosen him to live with us. We fetched him when he was 8 weeks old. Now, more than 4 years have passed and we can’t image living without him. It’s so crazy how people give their hearts to animals and include them in their lives, right? :)
This is how he’s sometimes sitting in his dog basket. :D Like a little sailor on his boat. ;D
Isn’t he cute? :) When he’s looking at me with his blue eyes, it’s so heart-warming! :)
Do you have any pets? :) I grew up in the countryside, having cats, chicken, a turkey, geese, lots of ducks and 3 goats. It was wonderful to spend my childhood having animals at home, but I really missed this when I moved out after school and then Flo and I started thinking about having a dog and this was definitely the best decision. <3
What inspires me.
Hello! :) Here’s a new list of things I love and which inspire me. I’m still busy with planning lots of details for our new apartment; I’m painting old furniture, preparing decor, I’m making little presents for the lovely friends who are going to help us and I’m making birthday presents for some friends. :) Much to do. :)
So here are the pretty things I found on the Internet:
1. I love those paper lanterns so much, this is such a good idea and adds colors to every white room. I’ve already bought tissue paper in three different colors and then I will decorate our paper lanterns as soon as we have moved. :)
2. This is a great idea, isn’t it? This lovely fabric wrapping project makes coat hangers look prettier.
3. Although I have already found a way to store my jewelry, I like this idea for a jewelry organizer
a lot. Maybe I will make one like this, too, I have lots of jewelry to store. :)
4. When I created my account on Pinterest, I found this awesome idea for using crates as tiny shelf. Until yesterday I wasn’t able to find crates in a good condition, but then I got the advice to go to a certain enoteca in Berlin where they sell these crates for 2.50€. I was so happy and I bought one, although I had to carry it home on the train all the way home. I’m currently painting it white and I intend to use it in my new room, either above my desk, or above my sewing table. :)
5. I’m in love with the colors, the light and the atmosphere in this bright and pretty bedroom. <3
6. Awwww, those paper garlands are too pretty to be true! Yesterday I bought a hole-puncher with a huuuuge hole so that I do not have to cut out every circle by myself. Can’t wait to make tons of pretty paper garlands in all different colors to decorate the whole apartment. :)
Shop Update: Hot Water Bottle Cover.
Hello! ;) This new hot water bottle cover can now be found on DaWanda. :)
Pretty fabric bunting for the bedroom.
Happy Sunday!!! :) Here’s one of my latest projects, a pretty bunting for our bedroom. :) Since we are going to move soon, I wanted to give the bedroom a fresh look and wanted to prepare some things which I can then use to decorate our new home. We have lots of bedclothes in all shades of blue and yellow, so I thought that the colors of the bunting would be pefect. How do you like it? :) I’m currently preparing things for the new apartment nearly every day, I’m painting furniture, ordering things, preparing home decor and I’m looking for home inspiration on Pinterest. Today we are going to get our new kitchen cabinet from the 50s which I bought from a furninute conservator a week ago. I will have to refresh the paint, but apart from this, it’s in pretty good condition and I love the old look so much! :) Can’t wait to share before / after photos after we have moved. :)
Do you have any special plans for today? Apart from collecting the kitchen cabinet from its seller, I will finish a birthday present for a friend of mine who is going to celebrate her birthday next weekend and I will paint a little shelf I bought a few days ago. <3
Love, Lu
