Are you a fan of open shelves in the kitchen or you’re more of a cabinet person? I have to admit a while back I was all about open shelving, but now I wouldn’t say ‘no’ to glossy, black-painted cabinets to add some drama to the area. So I’m asking you now – what would you choose?
Living through colors
With these shiny, warm days all I have on my mind are colors, colors, colors! It was never a secret I’m totally obsessed with them, but there’s something special happening to me when it’s spring outside – then yellow, blue, red or green gets so much more weight and it’s like life wouldn’t exist without them, you know what I mean? So when I need a dose of bright hues, I head over Design Seeds and of course you know this brilliant site full of inspiration. Here are my highlights for today.
Spring greens and blues
With the spring being here, I can’t help but be inspired by its freshness and brightness. Spring’s green color is my absolute favorite shade and the blue – well, it always feels airy and clean, so this combo is a perfect addition to anything especially after a dreary winter. That’s why I was so smitten by this table setting and the room itself – I could feel the smell of spring through the pictures!
Living in serenity
Hello, lovelies! Just as I said, I’m back with a dose of apology for not posting such a long time – it was a break I needed. I hope you’re enjoying this gorgeous spring weather (have I mentioned spring is my favorite time of the year?). Anyway, I’m feeling rested right now, very peaceful inside and out, which is a blissful feeling (trying to keep it for as long as I can!), that’s why today’s post is a home tour to show off exactly the serenity I’m filled with.
Coral & mint kind of week
Happy Monday, sweets! It’s a real spring here and I couldn’t be more thrilled to have so much sun and warm temperatures – I missed this SO much! And that’s why I’m utterly inspired by a color combination now – coral and mint! Truth is I always loved it, but the pastel shades of these two feel so feminine and modern now that I couldn’t resist but share my obsession with you. I found a pretty nursery decorated with mint and coral, take a look and tell me – what’s your favorite color combo this season?
I can’t get enough of coral and mint! And don’t even make me start on the fashion side of the two colors :)

Reading room by The lettered cottage
Remember when I posted about my perfect reading nook? Well, today I found the perfect reading room (no need to name the difference, right?). The reading room of my dreams belongs to the folks behind the blog The lettered cottage and is stunning thanks to its simple design, natural textures, plenty of light and inspiring wall art. Without further ado, here it is:
The lucite trend
Are you a lover of lucite furniture pieces or not? I have to admit there is something special about them, something that makes lucite very appealing and modern. Plus the transparency of lucite makes it work in every room, combined with any hues, styled in different ways and I guess there can’t be dilemmas about the color of the sofa in your living room or the color of your vanity in the bedroom when there’s a lucite item right next to it. Works for me!
Happy Brooklyn inspired home
I just came across a happy home indeed. With many colors and bright blooms I can’t decide whether I like more the bold blue of a wall or the hot pink stools. Oh and there are also the red hanging bulbs in the bathroom – can it get better than that? Check it out:
Mowie Kay: Lifestyle + food potography
Such a delight to browse through the portfolio of lifestyle and food photographer Mowie Kay. Every picture makes you drool leaving you mesmerized by the beauty of the colors and the setting itself. Mowie is no new figure in the blogging industry, so there are bug chances you saw his work, but I still think it’s a win-win situation: if you know Mowie’s photography – it never hurts to look at stunning food pictures, right? And if you weren’t familiar to Mowie Kay – here’s a perfect way to do so and start your week on a delicious note!
