All about color...

A little computer generated living-room design I did this morning,

Interactive Fun!


When you have kids, it can't be all clean and perfect so, always have kid's furniture around, make THEM feel at home TOO!
By the way, your kid's art can be later framed and used to dress up one of the walls in the family room or the study, I say we let them participate...

What a wonderful frog!



Okay, here's the thing... I LOVE FROGS!!!
Frogs represent transformation of the Positive Kind and are a Good Omen representing Happiness and great Friendships!
I was fortunate enough to find a beautiful frog for my yard, playing the violin of course!! and a more colorful and smiling one for the living room, makes the place look sooooo friendly...

Yang Colors, here comes the sun!


Well, Yang colors according to Feng Shui tend to be fire and wood elements. Feng Shui believes that these are the colors that provide you the enthusiasm or the positive energy required to do something or be motivated!
Yellow/ Gold color in Feng Shui is considered to be as auspicious as red. Yellow represents sunbeams, warmth, motion, cheerfulness and friendliness. However, according to a noted 'Color Feng Shui' consultant, prolonged exposure to large amounts of intense yellow can cause anxiety! Use it wisely friends ;)
I found these beautiful two elements to enhance a little corner of my living room, near my family photos... it brings me joy and happiness everytime I look at it!

Coffee Table books under the coffee-table




Once upon a time.... a girl got lucky enough to receive a priceless gift, a box full of books (she was able to hand-pick from a laaaaarge collection.... ) and, naturally, lived happily ever after!!!




Something Old... Something New...




Here are two of the walls I have painted downstairs.... The red in the kitchen is something I have always wanted and, for the record, the Bistro Style I am going for is still in progress, so STAY TUNED!!!


The pattern on the dining room wall is simply a little 'recherché' of mine (and for me!) and it only took me 3 hours!!! Original patterns are the best way to add your personal touch, design your own!!! Start by putting it on a piece of paper, come up with a design you like, flowers are often a good choice, or just curved lines for a more sophisticated look...
