the best place in the world is home

interior inspiration

I think this used to be a living room of a cosy apartment, but the owners turned it into an enormous bathroom! A little bit too big, if you ask me, but it gives a very cool impression too.

Focus your attention at the wall design

And of course, a few new crafties for you!

Learn how to make these Balloon Luminaries. A fun and easy project.
For the handy ones, make your own moderne style clock.
Another clock idea: tin letterpress.
For your lost papernotes and lists, this solution to hang them up neatly: kate's tin message board.
Decorate your rooms with these gold leaf river rocks.
Get prepared for everything and start making travel tins for emergency cases! You can fill them with notes, photographs, lots of memories, or even a candle: kate's tin travel candle.
The greatest alternative for your oldfashioned calendar is this perpetual calendar.
Pimp your ugly wooden tissue boxes with this cover.

go with the show

Hi guys!
I'm getting in the right direction I think, because it's only two days ago that I wrote on my blog; and here I am again! :D

So, what do you think of the happy crafties? You all think it's fun? Tell me, so I know if you want more of those thingies, and I'll put some more on the blog later.
If not, that's okay too.

At Gym, we started with ballroom dance lessons today! How cool :)
Me and my partner (we had to pick out someone to dance with) are doing quite good and it can only get better. It was our first lesson, so we only learnt some basic steps of the Chachacha.
- One, step, chachacha, two step chachacha, three step, four step, five, and tuuuuurn -
(you remember this from the movie Hairspray? :p)

Anyways, have a nice day and don't forget to leave a comment with your opinion about the crafties! Love you all

happy ideas

Hi guys!
I thought my love for crafty things was over, but I made a big mistake. It came back last night, when I was looking through my crafty blogroll and clicked on some links coincidentally.
I found some crafty ideas for you!


This wall looks like he's made out of real mosaic, but in fact it's just paper (:


I don't know how about you, but I think these thrift-store plate mirrors are cute to hang all over your room.


We can already start writing our what-to-do's for Spring on this lovely cardstock lists!


Easy to make are these butterflies in a picture frame


Normally, I'm not into this kind of homemade things, but I couldn't leave you without a how-to for a delicious chocolate chapstick.


And last but not least, help mother nature ànd your own purse with these reusable make-up remover pads; you can put them in the washing machine and that's it!

Even my biggest excuses would be unbelievable. My inspiration is just totally gone this week. Nothing special happened, or do I just live in a boring world? I don't know, but today it's time for a new piece of blogart.

I've got a day off today, and tomorrow I also don't have to go to school because it's the 1st of May. Actually, I have a big test for Latin and Maths, what I schould learn today, but I'm just sick of the idea of learning these days. Not that I had much to learn the past few weeks, but I don't like it. Who does xD?
Anyway, I'm getting stressed because I know I have to learn, and I'm not doing it at all. Help!
Some photographs I made this week with my selftimer (:

Sant Jordi

Today, 23 April, it's Sant Jordi. This day is celebrated because Sant Jordi is the patron of Catalonia. At school they organized a lot of activities we could participate in, like karaoke in English, mosaic, composing their own piece of music, sports activities, dishes of the world, etc.
I joined the 'dishes of the world' activity; we had to prepare a dish that is typical for our country, and because I'm from Belgium, I made Belgian chocolate mousse (:
My brother also participated and he made waffles for today. During the break, everyone of our school could taste our dishes, we had more than 20 in total! So, when the bell rang, it was time to attack :p
Surprisingly, the waffles and the chocolate mouse were dissapeared in less than 5 minutes!
People loved it and that was so nice to hear :)
After the break, when al the food was -more or less- eaten, it was time for a 2-hour event. Pupils of the 3rd year prepared a play, after that pupils of the 4th year (me too) played a few songs on the flute (we've been practising for months!) and some other cool things to fill our afternoon with. For me, it was a nice day! Hope you had a nice day too?

photographs at grandma's

With Easter we went to my grandparents for dinner and I took some pictures with the absolutely amazing Nikon camera of my uncle! O my gosh, I really want to have such a good thing, you can make the most beautiful photos with it. But, I've got my Sony camera since October, so I can't afford to buy a new one now. My uncle advised me to wait two or three years, because the SLR technology is still developing, and they will get much better. Maybe he's right... Anyway, I'll wait a few years before buying one ;)
Click for optimal quality; blogspot isn't that good for photos xD

It's like it's been a 100 years without writing anything on my blog! I have been to Rome, as you could read in my last post, and when I came back I immediately had to leave again, because me and my family were going to Belgium for the whole week. I've been back in Spain since last night and today I had to go to school again! Buuuut, it's time to entertain you.

My trip to Rome; I had a nice time, not too fantastic, but not that bad. The bad thing about schooltrips is that you have to visit loads of famous buildings and all that stuff while you want to spend your time doing funnier things, like shopping. But every day our teachers gave us like 6 hours or more of FREEDOM, so time to shop till you drop and some sightseeing. I bought an 'I <3 Roma' sweater by the way ;)
Ehm, I guess you would like to see some of the photos I've taken?


Some of you were waiting for my blog to read and I hope they were not expecting to much? Because My inspiration is already gone, you know...
Ehm, oh yeah; That week in Belgium was amaaaaazing! I spend most of my days being with my best friend, Lola and we had a lot of fun together. I also planned a few hours to meet my friends from my old school and we went for a little walk and talked about what happened the last few months. I really want to go back to Belgium in summer holidays, so I'm thinking of going by plane for a 2-week trip to Ghent, my hometown. I don't even have to pay it my own, my parents are so kind to pay it for me.
If I'm not going in July, it would take a long time without seeing anyone of my family or friends, except if they would come here. But it will be so much easier when we have our own house; now we're still stuck in this little house we're renting. But not for too long! Normally, we're moving the first week of June!
Do I really sound that happy? Well, I'm not... I want to go back to everyone I know, and I don't want to be here feeling lonely and unhappy. I often think: 'Why can't I turn back time, and act like there didn't happen anything in my life. Life would be so much easier and funnier, life would be normal! What the hell am I dóing here?'
