Once upon a time...

Era uma vez... uma menina muito pequenina! É assim que começam as histórias que invento para distrair a Conchinha. Têm sempre uma lição de moral subjacente, em que a menina pequenina aprende que não deve fazer birras, que deve obedecer à mãe, enfim, o habitual! :)

Foi a contar uma dessas histórias que tirei mais umas fotos à nossa mesa de Natal. Cor-de-rosa como os contos infantis.

 

Once upon a time... there was a little, little girl! That's how I always start the stories that I make up for Conchinha. Always with high morals, the stories tell her how to behave, to obey her mother, well, the usual messages for children!.. :)

I was telling her one of these stories when I took some more photos of our Christmas table. Pink as in the fairy tales...

Merry Christmas!

E aquele dia maravilhoso do ano chegou... Eu desejo-vos um excelente Natal, com muito amor e saúde, junto daqueles que vos são próximos. Abracem-nos, aproveitem os momentos juntos, que tudo passa a correr... Há um ano atrás, estive com a minha mãe pela última vez. Por isso, este dia tem um significado duplamente especial para mim. Aproveitem, divirtam-se, riam, beijem, abracem-se. É Natal!

Um beijo enorme a todos.

And the glorious day arrived... I wish you a Merry Christmas, full of love and health, surrounded by your loved ones. Hug them, enjoy this day together, as time flies... A year ago, I saw my mother for the last time. So this date has a double special meaning to me. Enjoy, kiss, laugh, hug, have fun! It's Christmas!

A big kiss to you all.

Christmas in gold

Aquela cor típica do Natal e que aquece todos os ambientes. Eu adoro dourado, seja nesta época ou fora dela. E acho-a uma cor muito fotogénica! :)

Numa mesa de Natal, o dourado alegra qualquer tonalidade escolhida: combina lindamente com os cor-de-rosa que tenho optado desde o ano passado, mas também o imagino a brilhar numa mesa com tons lilás ou a contrapor a um verde água, que era uma das cores que eu idealizei para este ano...

Adoro cores, é sempre o meu ponto-de-partida para qualquer decoração!

I love gold, whether it's in the festive season or in another time of the year. It's a typical Christmas colour and I find it very photogenic! :)

On a Christmas table, gold warms up anything around it: it goes wonderfully with pink, the combo that I've been using since last year, but I also imagine it against lilac hues or a mint green, that I wanted to use as this year colours for the Holidays...

I love colour, it's always where I start my decor inspirations from!

Fuchsia passion

Hoje de manhã saí com a Carlota, para ela fazer umas análises. Já tinha pensado em irmos de seguida tomar o pequeno-almoço e depois queria ir perder a cabeça com aquilo que considero ser um dos luxos de hoje em dia: flores naturais. Só não estava à espera de encontrar peónias rosa fucsia... e perdi-me mesmo, alterei os meus planos para as fotografias de hoje e sonhei, sonhei com a nossa mesa de Natal...

Os pratos, as jarras, as bolas de Natal e o anjo de papel são antigos, bem ao meu jeito. Espero que gostem desta inspiração...

This morning I took Carlota to the doctor and had already planned to have breakfast afterwards, as well as going the florist and loose my head on what I consider one of today's luxuries: natural flowers. And I really lost my head, when I saw these wonderful fuchsia peonies... I changed my mind on my previous photo plans and set a Christmas table... and dreamed...

The plates, the paper angel, the baubles and the jars are vintage - you know my style! Hope you like this inspiration...
