OMG, it happened! Today I turn 30! This date is so BIG (big in a sense of my thoughts, concerns and anticipations about it) that I feel really strange that it has finally arrived. In my mind the time stopped for me at the age of 22 (don’t know why) and despite the figure in my…
Grey sky, cool mornings and brown leaves… The first signs of autumn are already here. In these cold and rainy days, it is so nice to pamper yourself with a warm and relaxing bath. I am a huge supporter of the idea that bathroom should not only a place for hygiene procedures, but rather a peaceful…
Every day I look through an incredible amount of home decorating magazines, websites, blogs. Sometimes I am amazed and thrilled. Sometimes interior design mistakes just shout on me from the screen and pages. Those who ever did renovation by himself most probably faced a situation when the final result looked not quite the same as it was…
In winter the houses of both my parents and my grandparents were always full of pickled cucumbers, mushrooms, homemade jams and juices. Beautifully stocked on the shelves and with nice handwritten labels on them they instantly created such a warm and homely feel. To be honest, I never myself in my adult life was thinking…
In 1915 Kazimir Malevich painted his famous “Black Suprematic Square” and by doing so he put a bold line between the old and the new art.

With the baby bed taken out and your young one eager to express his own style, redecorating your toddler’s room can be a daunting task. Your “little one” is no longer a baby and those decorating days would’ve been…
August. Month of harvesting, homemade jams and collecting honey. Never during a year nature was that generous in giving away her treasures: fruits, berries, mushrooms, and of course wheat. It is so nice to bring them to our homes and also to create of them a beautiful and heart-warming decor. In this post today 16 beautiful ideas of…
It’s been already almost two years since I’ve been using Wix for hosting my online shop. It’s been a long journey during which this company has changed and has improved a lot. However there are still certain downsides which made me think whether I want to stay with them further or not. Finally after long hesitations…
During our vacation on Zakynthos Island I’ve stumbled upon some beautiful locally made runners. Stripped and colourful these original mats woven of cotton stripes just couldn’t remain unnoticed: The tradition to weave these mats exists since a long time in Mediterranean countries, and you can find similar pieces in Turkey and Morocco. On the picture is shown the…
“OMG, is it really like this over there?” That was my reaction, when I saw the photo of the island on the web, when we booked our vacation in Greece. Now being here for more than ten days I can confirm – yes, Zakynthos is THAT beautiful in reality (and perhaps even more). I am utterly blown away…
