Beautiful homes / Barn inspired

This beautiful home created by architect Daniele Claudio Taddei is located in gorgeous Brissago, Switzerland. Blessed with looks, location and inspirational ideas this building is definitely a winner for me.

I LOVED Melbourne, we all had a fantastic time and the weather was great too.

But now it's time to throw my self back into work and a busy school term with the kids!

I look forward to catching up and to visiting all of your gorgeous blogs!

Have a a great week :)

PS I am not very organised today so I'm just sharing a couple of shots from around the house and my latest art (acrylic on canvas) which was completed last week. Hope you like

White obsession

I find white cool, calm and stylish 
(wish I could surround myself with a lot more white at home)


Have a serene + happy day :)

A happy week-end

It's been a busy and tiring week and I am so glad it's over...Weather wise it's been unusually warm and then cold again. Today for instance is quite chilly, I am wearing my coziest jumper and warm slippers, having tea and trying to relax...Family wise it has been difficult...my youngest daughter Georgia was sick - still is, she's been sick all week poor baby with a temperature and bad cough - she is now taking antibiotics and hopefully she will be back to normal very soon. I had forgotten how exhausting it is to look after a sick child and how frustrating...not being able to really help, apart from lots of hugs and medication. We are both very tired and we will be taking it easy this coming week.
The week after we will be flying to Melbourne for a mini break :) -Can't wait!
It will be lovely to spend some time together, just the five of us and really enjoy each other's company (hopefully!...) We will be doing some shopping and visiting the Werribee open range zoo located approx. 30 km from Melbourne where we will do a mini Safari, it should be fun!

Now I leave you with some favourites from this past week. Hope you enjoy :)
