My home| Reupholstering


Hi Everyone,

How is this week treating you so far? I hope great!

If you knew me a little bit, you would know that I love all things vintage, and I absolutely love design. I love all kind of design!! For me it does not really matter if the piece that I like has a famous designer behind it. What really matters for me are the forms, shapes and textures in that piece..

With me loving all this things so much, my husband and I agreed that we would not buy any furniture for our house before the wedding aside from what we already had. ( we only have a bed!!! and my office furniture :p) and take the task of decorating our home with all the things we love and find along the way. My husband and I loooove thrift shops and flea markets, but we never really get anything because we never had a lot of space to storage. Now that we have this big empty house our projects are going to start. :)

My husband knew that I was looking for a set of vintage looking chairs(for my office) because I wanted to learn how to reupholster. Yesterday,I was surprised by him with these two beautiful chairs below


Sorry about the picture quality, we are in the middle of moving and I can't find the cables for my camera :(


I'm in love with the blog all thing thrifty and on her blog she has a post about reupholstering, and it was that post that got me into the reupholstering idea.

Look at how beautiful the chair she reupholstering turned out:

You can check her full post here


Now, lets pray that all goes well with my project and that I don't have to end up paying someone to finish it for me :p

Have a great one!

Amazing bedrooms

Today I decided to come here early and blog before I had to run out and start the day. I have relatives going back to Brazil today, and I need to take advantage of the last few days I have my husband around before he goes back to work.
We are still at my parents house because the apartment we leased is under renovation, but yesterday we recieved the owner gave us the good news that by the weekend everything should be ready. I can't wait to move in and start to decorate :)

On this blog,I will be posting all the steps of the decor of our apartment, and the crafts projects we are going to be doing alon the way.

Today I was looking for some bedrooms inspirations, this is what I found.

enjoy!
