INTERIEUR/LOOBOOK: Wie kleine Veränderungen große Wirkung auf die Inneneinrichtung haben können | Sweetheart Bluse und Plisséerock.

Anzeige | Die liebe Nadine von posterstore.de hat mich vor kurzem angeschrieben und mich gefragt, ob ich an einer Kooperation interessiert bin. Ich habe mir den Onlineshop angesehen und viele tolle Poster und Rahmen gefunden, die ich bereits bei diversen anderen Bloggerinnen auf Instagram und Co. bewundert habe. Viele sind in Schwarz/Weiß und wirken sehr edel. Toll finde ich, dass man sich vor allem auf Modefotografien bzw. Motive mit Schwerpunkt Mode konzentriert hat.

Am meisten ist mir unter anderem bei Instagram das wunderschöne, große Prada Poster ins Auge gestochen, das ich selbst seit einiger Zeit bereits auf meiner Wunschliste hatte. Sicherlich hatten das auch etliche von euch auf dem Schirm.

Und eben dieses ist mir von Posterstore zugesendet worden, in den Maßen 50x80. Und was soll ich sagen: es ist wunderschön!

INTERIEUR: Wohninspirationen mit Pixers & Kraniche als Blickfang an der Wand.

Sponsored - Jeder der mich kennt, weiß um meine Liebe zu den Dingen, die das Leben schöner machen - dazu zählt nicht nur meine Vorliebe für Kleidung aus edlen Materialien sondern auch das Faible für schöne Interieurs.

Da ich vorhabe, nächstes Jahr umzuziehen (wohin werde ich euch mitteilen, sobald es so weit ist - seid gespannt!) bin ich schon am überlegen, wie ich meine neue Bleibe gestalten möchte. Ich habe schon viele Ideen und bin in absoluter Vorfreude darauf, sie umsetzen zu können.
Natürlich bin ich auch gerne am Stöbern, vor allem bei Instagram, und habe unter anderem das wunderbare Profil von Katarina (@editionnoire) entdeckt, auf welchem sie Fotos ihrer traumhaften Bleibe zeigt - unter anderem hat sie eine Wand ihres Wohnzimmers komplett mit einem überlebensgroßen Bild von tanzenden Kranichen geschmückt. Das sieht so fantastisch aus, dass ich mir dasselbe auch für mein neues Reich überlegen werde.

Selbst werde ich so ein Werk nicht an meine Wand malen können (wobei ich im Schlafzimmer meiner ersten, eigenen Wohnung einen Traumbaum an die Wand gezaubert habe, und er wirklich sehr schön geworden ist).
Das Schlagwort lautet also: Fototapeten!

Auf Pixers, einem Marktplatz für diverse Designs zur Verschönerung des eigenen Zuhauses, habe ich "Kraniche" als Suchbegriff eingegeben, um mich für meine neue Wohnung inspirieren zu lassen.

GIVEAWAY: Zeit für Entschleunigung - der Slow Coffee Maker von Leopold Vienna.

Jeder der mich kennt weiß, dass ich der Inbegriff des Foodie bin - ich liebe es, gutes Essen zu genießen und ebenso sehr, es herzustellen. Essen und die Zubereitung dessen ist immer verbunden mit einer großen Hingabe, Leidenschaft und Liebe.

Good food nurtures not only your body, but also your soul.

Good food nurtures not only your body, but also your soul (dtk) - das ist mein persönliches Mantra, das ich versuche, jeden Tag so gut es geht zu leben.

Neben gutem Essen liebe ich auch Getränke, die mit Hingabe komponiert wurden und in denen man die Leidenschaft fürs Handwerk erkennt. Ein guter Wein gehört genauso korrespondierend zu einem perfekten Dîner wie der Champagner dazu, das Leben zu zelebrieren und wie guter, hausgemachter Kaffee zu edlem, französischen Gebäck - oder auch einem einfachen, aber doch perfekten Schokoladen Guglhupf.

Da fühle ich mich erinnert an müßige Samstage mit meiner Mama. Wir hatten die Tradition, die Nachmittage bei gutem Wetter entweder im Park zu verbringen - sie lesend, ich meine Hausaufgaben machend, oder bei tristem, grauen Wetter zuhause zu bleiben und einen Arthouse Film einzulegen. Ich bereitete amerikanische Cookies vor und sie braute einen Kaffee - nicht mit der Filterkaffeemaschine, sondern mit dem Porzellanfilter, mit ganz heißem Wasser. 

Er schmeckte göttlich ...

ROOM TOUR: home is where the heart is.

ROOM TOUR: kitchen.

[en] hello my dears. today i proudly present you my country style kitchen. it is designed as an open-plan kitchen. this is the place where i welcome and teach my pupils, where i'm eating my breakfast and lunch and where i'm working for my blog and onlineshop.

the kitchen was constructed by my stepfather after i told him how it should look like. i wanted a country style kitchen in white with brown worktops and golden handles.
i also got a new white fridge-freezer and a country style cupboard for my cleaning utensils.

to form a nice atmosphere and to create a harmonious room concept i chose white as the main colour, and different pops of colour in the form of loads of flowers and herbs.

ROOM TOUR: a petrol blue and black vintage style bedroom.

hi peeps! today i want to show you the next part of my room tour: i proudly present you my black and blue bedroom! ... this is somewhat my favourite room because the room concept is absolutely appropriate. all the different pieces and colours match together. i guess i also like it a bit more than my living room, although it is pink XD

what do you think of it?

ROOM TOUR: my garden.

today i want to show you the next part of my room tour series: i proudly present you my 'garden', or rather my main entrance, lined with loads of beautiful flower beds with fragrant lavender, and other beautiful flowers and plants.

each time i leave the house or come home there are loads of bumblebees saying hello with their lovely buzzing around. i cannot imagine a better way of greeting and it's another reason why my new house really makes me feel at home ... ♥ 

ROOM TOUR: a pink coloured living room ♥

ladies and gentlemen, the waiting comes to an end today: i proudly present you ... my pink coloured living room! you might already have seen some tiny parts of it in previous posts, but today the focus is solely on the living room and its special details.

INTERIOR LOVE: painting furniture white.

there was a day when something disturbed my ideal of beauty when i came into the living room. the feeling of disturbance grow as days flew past. and then i suddenly recognized that i really hated my black CD shelf and both of my brown book shelves. they simply didn't fit into the concept of the rest of the room. they didn't fit to the pink and white coloured walls. they made the whole room look shabby, not chic. they somewhat made it all look a bit dirty. chaotic, but not in a creative, but very unsophisticated way. and i simply HATED this view so much so that i had the huge urge to change that sight immediately.

i bought wood varnish in white at the local supermarket and prepositioned paint brushes of several sizes and also a paint roller of those kinds we also used to paint the walls with. i used the latter for the CD shelf and the most extensive parts of both book shelves. 
but the finishing touch was the hardest part of the work. 
the book shelf was lying on the floor and with small paint brushes i painted the small, still brown parts, most of the time bent forward with all my body.

it was loads of work.

INTERIOR LOVE: painting glasses white.

since most of the decoration and furniture in my kitchen is white i wanted all of my vases to look like that, too. unfortunately i didn't have so many white vases but on several blogs i have read about the idea to use pickle glasses of different shapes and colouring them white so that one can use them as small vases afterwards. i liked this idea very much and thus i gathered loads and loads of them, bought varnishing spray in white and started my new DIY project!

what is most important is that you're working outside (if possible) and that you've got enough support surface because the spray will have a huge diameter. thus i have chosen some of my old moving boxes. with a distance of approx. you should stick to a distance of 15-30cm between they spray and the glass you want to colour. in a few hours the glass should be dry. but precautionary i have waited one day or 24h until i put them back inside.

another time you're getting best results for less work. i love the look of the new vases. the different shapes add a fun and also sophisticated twist on the table.

INTERIOR LOVE: painting frames white.

today i want to show you another DIY project i have started and finished some time ago. i already reported about my other vintage frame project earlier this year. you might have read about it here: click. 

now i had some more wooden frames which were made of ordinary and somewhat boring brown wood and i wanted to colour them white, so that they would fit into my kitchen where the colour white somewhat prevailed. 

again i used wood varnish. i have painted with a big brush and a smaller one for the finishing touch. it also didn't take as long as the first time, but now i only had four small photo frames, and i also needed a single layer of varnish.

i must admit that although you're not doing much you've got a very huge change. the look of the frames is so much different and i was very satisfied with the end result.

INTERIOR LOVE: painting a tree.

my dears, after a long pause i want to show you some more preparations for my new flat. i had the idea in my mind to paint my new bedroom blue - indeed it turned out to be a nice petrole blue (called lagune by schoener wohnen room colours), you might have also seen the colour in one of my previous posts (click) or on my instagram accound (click). 
and onto this blue colour i wanted to paint an ornamental and curly black tree with green leaves and golden blossoms. i have sketched a design of it onto a piece of DIN A 4 paper and carried it with me until the house moving was finished. i loved the idea to give all of my rooms a natural and vintage touch.

i have already started to paint the bedroom of my dreams and today i want to show you some impressions about the making of. it's not finished yet, it will still take some time, but it already looks very, very lovely and i'm very proud of my work ♥

i have painted the tree freehand. previously i only sketched out the contours with a pencil, then i started filling it out with black emulsion paint which i have bought at the DIY market.

so, what do you think of it? do you like my design and work so far?

SHOPPING LOVE: interior ideas by stylefruits.de.

since i'm in a huge interior design rush because of my house moving i'm regularly browsing for lovely, fancy and beautiful interior ideas, especially baroque and country style ones.

i have found some very beautiful furniture and decoration items on stylefruits.de and wanted to share them with you. which items would be your favourites? ♥

INTERIOR LOVE: vintage frames and crosses get a new shabby chic style.

hello guys! some time ago i had the idea that white country style furniture and shabby chic decoration would fit perfectly into my new, colourful home - thus i took the decision to coat those many many old vintage frames i have found in the cellar earlier and the old wooden cross from my great grandmother with beautiful cream white paint i have bought in the diy market, among the wall paint and brushes. 

i have finished both the frames and the cross on the second attempt, because first i have coated the surface and afterwards the bottom. well i have never thought that this could be so much work (totalled up i have worked for nearly 4 hours), but i guess that it was worth it, if i look upon the final outcome.

INTERIOR LOVE: renovating my new home.

my lovely ones! now i'll finally show you the pictures of the renovating process (... which we have finished yesterday - yay!) - you cannot imagine how much fun it was to shop for the new colourful wall paint and accessories such as paint brushes, rollers, acrylic paint and wood varnishes. i simply love diy markets - and that's not simply because of the name ... in german we call it 'baumarkt', it's less romantic and creativity enunciating than the english term, don't you think?

i already thought that painting the walls would become an arduous work, because our second last flat has been painted by a professional painter, and he has been rewarded with more than 1000€ (and he still made a very good offer). he processed 150 square meters in 3 days. when i was younger i wondered why he had taken so much time - but now i can understand XD ... at least since yesterday i'm suffering from a bad leg, or rather knee, i've got bruised arms, and - for the very first time in my life - blisters, on my HANDS! can you imagine that? that's amazing haha XD ... i have never had blisters there, not even when i had to work upon bulk orders for 1000 cranes for the MBFW or schloss einstein which i have finished in 3-4 days.

... but still i cannot be happier, really. it was so much fun painting the walls with those beautiful trend colours from schöner wohnen (orchidee and lagune) - while working i have slowly realized that this place will be my new home ... for the next years, or longer! and i sensed an enlarging sense of joy in my heart. when i sat outside on my balcony, watching my beautiful big and richly green spruce, i felt happy. really happy. i felt at home. i looked inside, saw all the covering sheets, the empty paint pots and the beautifully coloured rooms in pink and blue, and i felt happy. i thought: yes. now i'm home.

i can't even begin to tell you how happy i am, how much i love this new feeling.

i'm at home.

INTERIOR LOVE: door bell nameplates.

guys i need your help! i have made some door bell nameplates for my new flat ... which of these should i choose? what do you think? ... i especially like no. 7 because of it's clean and fashionable chic and no. 4 because ... i'm truly a potterhead, and i would love the fact that anyone who stops by could see that ♥

INTERIOR LOVE: new decoration for my new home.

today i've got a new haul for you - and this time i'm not showing you new and beautiful stuff for my wardrobe, but loads of new and beautiful decoration stuff for my new home. 

i want to make it colourful with loads of shabby chic, old fashioned interior ideas, loads of vases coloured in white (a friend will give me some old ones on monday), loads and loads of beautiful flowers in and outside the house and many many picture frames on the walls - today i have finished varninshing all the old frames i have found in the cellar months ago and they are looking so shabby chic and beautiful! 

... i have also found some beautiful decoration articles on ebay.de (one of my favourite websites right now because i have already found loads of beautiful stuff there, especially my two pairs of chanel earrings and my chanel necklace). i really love the shabby chic table clock, the oh so kitsch cuckoo clock, the shabby chic and flashy home clock, my new country style bedding and the oversized wall clock painted in mint green and with beautiful old english roses. 

i have amassed many more articles such as tablecloths, chair covers, country style throws and two very pretty chandeliers - one for the living room and one for the bedroom.

INTERIOR LOVE: my new flat!

yessah! i've received my keys for my new flat some time ago and already made some photos of my new cosy home. nearly 70qm and a very nice balcony. i'm quite in love with the extremely beautiful view and each time i visit my new home this love grows deeper and deeper. i love all the nature outside(especially the huge-grown spruce right next to my balcony), the quiet surroundings and the sophisticated neighborhood. quite distinguished from my old home which was very very loud and when you got out onto the balcony you were never alone, except when it was half past midnight or sth like that XD

today i want to show you some pictures of my un-renovated home (because we already started to paint the walls, i will show you pictures of that later - omg the living room is pink, i love it so much XD). i also want to show you some pics of my pretty pretty balcony (a friend of mine stated that it's that big it must already be a terrace and i also believe it so) ... but let's start with a proud possessor of new keys and a walk through the new neighborhood ♥
