DIY (home decoration ideas)---ideje za uređenje doma

I have promised you more DIY projects, haven't I? So, for the first DIY project you will need an old glass that you don't use any more. Next step is to decorate it with nail polish and insert a candle in it. (The more different nail polishes you use, the more colorful will  the light from the candle be.) Finally, what you will get is an interesting decoration that won't cost you anything.

Obećala sam vam još neke uradi sam projekte, zar ne? Prva ideja za uređenje doma je pretvaranje stare čase u zanimljivu dekoraciju. Ukrasite je sa lakom za nokte i ubacite svijeću unutra  ( što više različitih nijansi laka za nokte  biti će raznobojnija svjetlost svijeće), i dobiti ćete svijetlo u bojama, a ništa vas neće stajati.








You can have a look ar few photos of the " colour application" process. How neat you want to be is entirely up to you. As you see, I wasn't really that neat but I think it looks good this way too.

Sada, par fotografija samog procesa bojanja. Koliko ćete biti uredni ( ili pedatni) ovisi potpuno o vama, ja kao što vidite nisam bila vrlo, ali mislim da i ovako šareno dobro izgleda.

_______________________________________________________________________________
Now, time for  the second decoration idea. This DIY vase you had the chance of seeing before, I did add some colour on it but that is not the point. The decoration idea here is to insert candles into the vase that you have previously filled with water. No need to buy special candles because the regular ones float just as well. 

Sada, druga ideja za uređenje doma. Vazu ste već vidjeli i da sada je još šarenija, ali to nije poanta. Ideja za uređenje je da u vazu stavite vodu i u nju svijeće. Obične svijeće plutaju jednako dobro kao i one plutajuće, pa nema potrebe da ih kupujete.

      special pants are the best, but nail polish is a good alternative especially if you have some you don't use.

    Već sam razmišljala kako ću lakovima ukrasiti staklenku u koju stavljam DM svijeću od vanilije, a usput ću iskoristiti lakove koji su stari godinama i nikako da ih potrošim :D

      da, mene uvijek grize savjest kad imam nešto neiskorišteno pa mi tako svašta pada na pamet.

    Dugo nisam bila prisutna, pratila sam tu i tamo šta se radi, ali vidim da sam dosta propustila. Ovaj svećnjak od čaše mi ej apsolutni favorit, a ovakvih čaša imam na stotine. Negde su, tu, ne znam ni ja tačno gde, a razlog zbog kog sam ih odbacila jeste što ne volim da ih perem, nezgodne su, zar ne?

      kad god došla, dobro došla:) Jesu malo nezgodne ove čaše za pranje, a ja sam se sjetila iskoristiti ih jer je jedna napukla ( rekla sam mužu da ne sipa kipuću vodu u čašu, je li poslušao? naravno da nije. Dva najtvrdoglavija znaka u zodijaku, nije nam dosadno skupa:)

All your comments mean a lot to me, even the criticism. Naravno da mi puno znači što ste uzeli vrijeme da nešto napišete, pa makar to bila i kritika. Per me le vostre parole sono sempre preziose anche quando si tratta di critiche.

THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)

Image
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern  novel  follows two  story lines and uses framed narration.  The Island of Missing Trees  tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter.  This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story.   The Island of Missing Trees is   set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological .  The story jumps back and forth, following two main timelines, one set in moder

10 STYLE LESSONS LEARNED FROM MALENA/ MONICA BELLUCCI

Image
With summer being in full spring, I caught myself thinking about iconic summer outfits. Do you know what came to my mind? Costumes/outfits worn by Monica Belluci when she played Malena Scordia in an iconic Italian movie set on Sicily.  The costumes for that movie were designed by an acclaimed Italian costume designer Maurizio Millenotti and he outdone himself! Seeing that Malena is a historical movie, Maurizio choose quite timeless outfits and cuts that will ever go out of style. That fact makes Malena movie the perfect place to look for inspiration! Moreover, I feel that Monica Belluci's personal style is quite similar to Malena's (i.e. to the style of the character she is playing). There is definitely a Mediterranean lady feel about Malena/Monica Bellucci. What says summer better than Mediterranean and Sicily? Today we'll analyze Malena's style and see what we can learn from her. There is much to learn! Having analyzed looks that Monica wore in iconic Malena film, I&

HACKING MONICA BELLUCCI'S STYLE SECRETS

Image
Hello dear readers! Today we'll be hacking Monica Bellucci's style secrets. Monica Bellucci is an Italian actress loved by many designers, including D&G duo and Dior. She is known for having a very feminine style of dressing.  One could definitely call her a style icon. So, why not analyze her style?  In this post, we will  start with identifying the key items in Monica's closet and then we are going to examine them. Finally, we'll hack her style secrets. I already wrote a bit about her style when I analyzed Malena's (character played by Monica Bellucci) wardrobe . The reasons why I have decided to write about her again is because of her timelessly elegant and chic style.  I happen to think Monica Bellucci has a very classical style of dressing that is quite ageless and universally flattering. In fact, you probably already have at least one of Monica's Bellucci key items in your closet.  When we see someone being stylish, we sometimes forget that style can

Jadrolinija ferry ride, travelling from Split to island Hvar (outfit post)

Image
Science proved that life on Earth originated in the sea but in our hearts we must have always felt it. Why otherwise would we feel so inspired by the sea? Who of us has not felt his or her heart opening up while mesmerized by the deep blueness of sea? Is it an echo of an oceanic birth of life? Is it our soul that wanders enchanted towards that greatest mystery? We feel the song of the sea, even when we don't understand it. Znanost je dokazala da je život na Zemlji započeo u moru, ali u našem srcu smo zacijelo to znali. Zašto bi nas more inače tako nadahnjivalo? Tko od nas nije osjetio kako mu se srce otvara dok biješe očaran dubokim plavetnilom mora? Je li to odjek morskog rođenja života?  Je li to naša duša koja luta očarana prema tom krajnjem misteriju? Osjećamo pjesmu mora, čak i kada je ne razumijemo. A SELECTION OF CROATIAN POETRY RIKARD KATALINIĆ JERETOV 1869-1954   Born in Volosko (Istria, Croatia), died in Split.

TRAVEL WITH MY ART #39- STJEPAN FORTRESS BLAGAJ (BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll share another destination painting of mine. You know what that means- it's time for another TRAVEL WITH MY ART post! Today I'm taking you to Herzeg Stjepan Kosaca fortress. This stunning historical fortress overlooking Blagaj in Bosnia and Herzegovina is a sight to behold. Trying to capture its magical beauty in a painting was a challenge!  The medium for this painting is acrylic paints on cotton canvas. The painting process was actually quite long and tedious. I've worked on this painting since Autumn and I only finished it towards the end of Summer. I rushed the painting towards the end, because I wanted to participate in the joint artist exhibition. There was a submission deadline to meet, so I submitted this canvas not feeling confident it's actually finished. If you happen to visit Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina, you'll be able to see my painting hanging in the Stjepan Kosača gallery for the next
