Sunday

I went to see flower and garden show yesterday with my friend and her little girl, we had a wonderful time...

We took coffee and also capucino without coffee, she made few drawings for me , so I made this photo for her, I hope your weekend was nice too.

       Many of my necklaces are now hanging in a very lovely and colorful shop in Brooklyn so, if you are living in the area, be sure to pay a visit to Erin at
                                   Vintage Modern , or read more about her shop here and here. I wish you all a wonderful weekend!

Inspired by

 Patrick Blanc's vertical gardens...

1.Woolly Pocket

2.Gutter garden

3.Hanging organizer garden

4.Pallet garden 

5.Ecocube

6.Recycled drawers garden

Aromatic garden

I wanted to get rid of this dish rack for ages...now I'm so happy I didn't... it's the perfect place for basilico, timo, origano, salvia, melissa and even a small strawberry - I can't wait until it turns red.
Now I can have aromatherapy while washing the dishes :)))

p.s.I planted some cherry tomatos and chili peppers on my small balcony. I hope they will grow well, I have never tried to grow vegetables in pots, have you?

walls...

reflection

It's been raining all day long but then a ray of sunlight reflecting from the building in front hit a vase and then a wall for a few minutes...moment of magic :)))

fabric colours and puff effect

I can't stop playing with this puff effect, as well as my blog look... and can't stop feeling lucky for having a quiet and serene afternoon.

speaking of purple I'm so in love with this colour palettes from Gucci fall/winter collection

in the postbox

Three postcards that I sent to Janine from Uppercase a long time ago... I have almost forgot my adventure with fragile mushrooms so I was very happy when I saw them again, still in one piece, in this beautiful issue .

here is what I brought back from the fair - all kind of ribbons that Ziggy would love, back in '73.
Have a nice weekend!

pepin press

Pepin's book is here and I'm in love!

Speaking of beautiful fabrics, I'm on my way to Milano Unica. If you remember , my last year visit was a reason to start making necklaces - I'll be wearing this one today :)))

Have a nice day :)

50's

I've bought this lovely book the other day, but than dicovered another one from Pepin Press which I like even more - 50s Fashion PEPIN Fashion, Textiles & Patterns 04 book is must have if you like textiles inspired by abstract geometrics, impressionist flowers and brush strokes, I'm on my way to buy it!

Working on some spring necklaces which will be in the shop soon.
 I hope you love this bright springish colors as much as I do!
Have a great week :)

all shades of gray

We went to the mountains over the weekend, it's best thing to do when our city become too much "breath-taking" (you can find Milan here, proudly holding 6th position, I truly hope your cities are not on the list)
I wish you a nice week with plenty of fresh air!
