Marble pattern is going on strong this season. It started last year but it is booming this season a lot. Marble mugs, marble plates, marble tray, marble EVERYTHING.
I wanted to have a statement piece of marble trend, and I can finally say, I found the most luxurious soft stylish rug with a marble pattern. Meet Cristalita by Orian Rugs , isn’t she a beauty?
I know we are all over New years Eve decor and New Years Eve table set up, but I couldn’t but share it with you here on my blog with full pictures details.
My Christmas decor is finally done! Well I know I’ll be adding and switching a lot of things from now until Christmas but for now, I am really done lol.
Quick update: I just watched Renae’s stories and I saw her CEILING GARLAND do you hear me CEILING GARLAND why you do that to us, Renae? I want one now :'(
I like non-traditional Christmas decor and I also wanted it to match my home color scheme. I chose soft pink hues for this year: Rose Gold, Blush Pink and of course Gold.
I had to DIY some of the rose gold ornaments since I couldn’t find what I wanted in stores. I will share the videos soon on my Instagram so make sure to follow me.
This year I bought this Pre-lit flocked tree, I will link it up at the end of the post. I wanted to wait for the sales after Christmas but I wasn’t patient. I searched high and low … well, I searched low and low 😉 and found this amazing tree.
Today’s post is about last year DIY pumpkins. This is a very easy DIY, it is inspired by the Mackenzie Childs fall decor.
After I received their Catalog, I decided I can easily have this look for less. All I needed was dollar store pumpkins, black acrylic paint, a brush, white spray paint, and gold leaf pen.
And voila
Fall didn’t officially start, but September did and I think that’s a good excuse to start fall decor in our home.
If you follow me for a while you know me by now, I like my decor to be always out of the box or at least I try hehhehe. The inspiration for this decor was my Missoni wallpaper. So my colors are mint green, blush pink, Lavender and of course touches of gold.
Finally, my pantry is done and I can not wait to share it with you.
If I want to say what my style is I think we can say glam with a touch of mix and match (if we can call this a style hahahahha )
Let me show you the pictures first and I’ll talk along each picture :
I’m so late for this post ( I know I know with a sad face ), Valentine’s decor was all over the internet last week but I was so busy and I didn’t get the chance to finish my table set up.
But even though I’m late for blogland, I’m right on time for real life because I’m hosting a “POST” Valentine’s brunch for my close friends.
I couldn’t decide between red and pink so I decided to decorate with both. Couple years back mixing these colors was forbidden. Today they are all over the place.
Let me stop talking and show you the pictures
This silver dresser was and still my all time favorite DIY project.
Back in 2012, this silver leaf dresser had so many features and pins from the number one bloggers. With over 130.000 post views I was called Rasha the silver leaf queen LOL.
So why am I rewriting this post today? I’m writing this post after 6 years because I always get questions like: Does the silver leaf change its color after a while? does it get scratched easily since I didn’t prime it?How did the dresser hold up?
The best way to answer the above questions and many others, I will post the following pictures of the same piece six years after. It is still as beautiful as it was on day 1, it is not scratched, it didn’t change colors. Enjoy the photos.
I think you all know by now that I love metallic finishes. So when I wanted to restore this antique style end table I chose to gild it.
In a previous post, I showed the details of how to silver leaf a dresser. It is a little bit time-consuming but the end result is well worth it. This time I used gold leaf papers, I chose pale tone gold, I don’t like the very brassy gold color. As for pulls, I was so excited when I found these black white and gold pulls. They matched perfectly my courtly check Mackenzie Childs pieces.
Here are the pictures:
Everyone I know is addicted to coffee. They can’t function unless they have their morning coffee. Well, I hate coffee! I tried it with milk, creamer, and sugar but nothing made me hate it any less. On the bright side, I’m a tea addict. I drink it two and sometimes three times a day.
In my home country, we drink tea with any breakfast meal, and I carried this tradition to the States. That’s why I wanted to have a tea station so I can have everything in my hand reach: mugs, sugar and of course tea bags.
I snapped these pictures before my afternoon tea time. If you’re using your phone, click on each picture to enlarge.
This is not a scene that I arranged for this shoot. This is how my tea station on a daily basis. Well, less the half eaten cake.
