Home Making

Did you have a good weekend? I hope so.

Something different today for my first Colour My Monday post.

We pottered around the house yesterday, it was nice. We are slowly renovating a large 70's villa in the country, which I wasn't keen on buying, save for the wonderful garden /small olive grove. It's a slow process. We're doing it all ourselves, as we've done it before, but with three children and a tight budget it's hard work.  The wall-to-wall-to-ceiling-to-door flowery wallpaper has been replaced with white, the floor has been tiled in grey and we have found a gorgeous old marble sink for the kitchen. We know exactly how we want our home to look, but it takes time.

Anyway, a few images from our home in the making, including the chair I am sitting on right now and my old wooden desk. This is me!

Take a Seat!

Wow! I really love these vintage paper collages by Denise Fiedler of Paste.

Be prepared to ooh and ahh at the chairs, the animals, the portraits, the architecture...

One of the most striking things I've seen in a long time.
