DESIRED! All-white-kitchen style

I absolutely love all of them. Is a secret fantasy that I would one day have a villa for nice vacations, be it at seaside or at the mountains. That house would have A LOT of white accents. The images below remain my inspiration, in case I win the lottery!!!

I love the unmatching chairs with their rustic feel.

This is dreamy, if I had this kitchen I would always buy fresh white flowers for the island.

This one is very traditional, but the chair pillows gives it such a warm feeling. Wouldn't you love to have a late Sunday brunch in this space?

This unconventional, yet simple choice has so many beautiful details: the tall stools (made rustic again), the small mobile island, the beatiful fridge and big bench for all your friends.  Everything is well-chosen, but is not over the top: the wall-art, chalboard and simple clock.

 Surse imagini: sweeterhomes, homeinteriordesignthemes, housebeatiful

In this last photo, everything looks so steady and put-together. I appreciate the beatiful walls with the brick/stone trend that is so popular these days.

HEADLINER! Celebrity homes- MIROSLAVA DUMA

Everybody is raving about her style and I admit finding myself studying admiring her style for hours. What about her living space? What do you think?

It is very modern, that's for sure! Now I wanna see the closet!!!

DESIRED! Straight Line Designs furniture

Hey, you inspired people,

I'm gonna start my series of "Desired!" articles with the obviously awesome pieces found at Straight Line Designs Inc.
Of course, my first crush was this Little Black Dresser:

And then they blow my mind like this:

The pieces are bold and expressive.

Some of them are actually just exquisite and can be easily incorporated in any house/office while remaining the statement pieces.

I'm just saying, dreaming is for free and my dream house has some furniture already!

INSPIRED! Simple Idea- Dried Roses

Whether we want to keep them as souvenirs, because they have a special meaning or simply because they are very beautiful-even dead, as some may argue- dried flowers are a very simple idea of an arrangement.
Personally, I only tried to dry roses. i have used the method that I found the simplest: frist, I clean the leaves on the stem except those close to the bulb, then hang in a ventilated space upside down. I have read and heard about how to dry them very effectively in a sand box. I don't have an opinion, I have not tested it.           

Fie ca vrem sa le pastram ca si amintire, pentru ca au o insemnatate speciala sau pur si simplu pentru ca sunt foarte frumoase, florile uscate sunt o idee foarte simpla de aranjament.
Personal, eu am incercat sa usuc doar trandafiri. Folosesc metoda care mi s-a parut cea mai simpla: mai intai se curata trandafirii de frunzele de pe tulpina pana aproape de bulb, apoi se agata intr-un spatiu aerisit cu florile in jos. Am citit si auzit si despre cum se pot usca foarte eficient intr-o cutie de nisip. Nu am pareri, nu am testat.

You can also choose to dry only the rosebuds and mix them with nuts or dried petals, even decorating rocks.

Puteţi alege, de asemenea, doar mugurii de trandafir si se le asezati pe un mic platou alaturi de  lemn parfumat sau alte petale uscate, chiar şi pietre decorative.

No matter what you choose, be carefull that the flowers are well dried before you arrange them, otherwise you can get the reverse effect: they may get an unpleasant odor and even mold.

Orice modalitate ati alege, mare atentie ca florile sa fie foarte bine uscate inainte sa le asezati in aranjament, altfel puteti obtine exact inversul efectului scontat: ele pot capata un miros neplacut si chiar mucegai.

Winter decorations...without the holidays fuss

Though winter is hardly my favorite season, I get very excited around the holidays. I like to spend time with family, to eat well :-), to choose the wine they will serve, but most of all I think about how to decorate the house and Christmas tree.

But once the holidays are over and the tree was packed, the whole house seems empty. The other seasons give us more opportunities for creative decor, but we can also start the new year with very nice ideas, that we can afford.

I'll start this post with the presentation of inspired ideas for a centerpiece.

Desi iarna nu e deloc anotimpul meu preferat, devin foarte entuziasmata in prejama sarbatorilor. Imi place sa petrec timp cu familia, sa mancam bine :-), sa aleg vinul pe care il vom servi, dar mai ales sa ma gandesc la modul in care voi decora casa si bradul de Craciun.

Dar, odata ce sarbatorile au luat sfarsit si bradul a fost impachetat, intreaga casa pare goala. Restul anotimpurilor mi se par mai primitoare ca si posibilitati de decorare accesibile, insa si inceputul anului vine cu idei foarte dragute, pe care ni le putem permite .

O sa incep in acest post cu prezentarea unor idei inspirate pentru un centerpiece.

1. This is so sweet and cheap, i cannot believe how good it looks. Now I want a vase like that!
E atat de draguta si de ieftin de pus la punct incat nu pot sa cred ce efect creeaza. Imi doresc o vaza exact asa acum!

 2.  This is one of the most original ideas and reminds me of my grandmother who used to put on the stove orange or orange-peel just to "smell nice" in the winter.

 Aceasta este une dintre cele mai originale idei si imi aminteste de bunica mea care punea pe timpul iernii pe soba portocale sau coji de portocale " sa miroasa frumos".

3. The same inspiration, but the read-to-buy alternative.

Si in aceeasi nota, varianta de cumparat.

4. This arrangement is so beautiful that I regret that I put aside the pine cones after Christmas. I like how the flowers match with pine twigs.

 Acest aranjament este atat de frumos incat imi pare rau ca odata cu bradul am pus deoparte si conurile. Imi place cum se potrivesc florile cu crengutele de brad.

5. I'll try this candle centerpiece and I hope I'll show it in a future post. It is very versatile. I would like to use sand in other colors, to be more "winterish".

 O sa incerc si eu acest aranjament, sper sa il arat intr-un post viitor. Este foarte versatil, as vrea sa folosesc nisip in alte culori, sa fie mai "winterish".

 6. The latter is very simple and elegant. I've always adored simple white candles, allowing many successful combinations. With a different plate  (silver, white or plain glass), I think some "snowy" cones would look very nice too.

 Acesta din urma este foarte simplu si elegant. Intotdeauna am adorat lumanarile simple, albe, care permit multe combinatii reusite. Cu un suport diferit ( eventual argintiu, alb sau de sticla), cred ca ar arata foarte frumos si cateva conuri "inzapezite".

Stay Inspired!
