a little place to call my own (art and fashion blog)

One pair of cropped flared jeans. Two outfits. Two places (Mostar & Međugorje). Cropped flares seem to be in right now. I could pretend that I was right on trend. Say that I bought my cropped flares ahead of time. However, you would all know that's just not true because you have seen me wear them for years now.  The truth is that I often have issues finding a pair of pants of adequate length. But, because I love flares so much I have kept buying them even when there was some definite length missing. What you know? Now cropped flares are all the rave...and I can pretend that I'm right on trend, even if it really only a coincidence.  To tell you the truth, I don't remember when was the last time that I bought a clothing item. Perhaps I'm just tired of stores. Furniture and appliance shopping is exhausting. I'm starting to see why people hire professionals to do interior design for them. It is a lot of work. On the other hand, perhaps the reason of my buyi...

Speaking of birds ......Besides being a bird lover, I'm also a bird print/pattern lover. Today I'm posting a simple DIY project. I bought this wooden box a while back. To customize it, I decided to paint it with acrylics. Apparently that wasn't enough for me, so after I while I tried the decoupage technique on this little box. I selected bird print. I must say that I'm really happy with the result. I love this little yellow box. It is like a rain of sunshine. Do you like it? Do you enjoy taking part in DIY projects? Do you like bird print and patterns? Kad smo već na temi ptica ....Osim što volim ptice, volim i uzorke na temu pticu. Danas obavljujem jednostavni napravi sam projekt.  Prije dosta vremena kupila sam ovu drvenu kutiju. Kako bi je učinila više svojom, odlučila sam se oslikati akrilnim bojama. To mi nije bilo dovoljno, pa sam odlučila isprobati i dekupaž tehniku na ovoj maloj kutijici. Odabrala sam ptičji uzorak. Moram reći da sam zadovoljna s rezultatio...

If you suffer from a bird phobia, you might want to skip this post. There will be birds in this one, mainly ducks. If you don't like ducks, by all means don't scroll down.  There are more photos of ducks than of myself in this post. What can I do? I love ducks. They seem to be more photogenic than me. The same applies for this city. Isn't Mostar extremely photogenic? It is one of the most photogenic cities that I know. These photographs were actually taken last year, but you will forgive me.  Bojite li se ptica, možda vam je bolje da preskočite ovu objavu. Biti će ptica, većinom patki. Ako ne volite patke, nemojte gledati ove fotografije. Zapravo ima više slika od patki nego od mene u ovoj objavi. Što mogu? Volim patke. Čini mi se da su fotogeničnije od mene same. Isto   vrijedi i za sam grad. Zar nije Mostar fotogeničan? Meni se čini da je jedan od najfotogeničnijih gradova koje poznajem. Ove su fotografije uslikane prošle godine, ali ćete mi oprostiti.  ...

Here comes the second part of my visit to Hutovo blato . I even found this little spot there- a place I didn't notice during my previous visits. You need to walk a bit to get here, but it's worth the walk. Just follow the track and you'll know when you see it. We actually saw an eagle while we were here. That was lovely! This place is a known spot for bird-watching. Although, I tend to see birds everywhere. It must be because I love them. Anyway, our visit wasn't long but it was very enjoyable. I even managed to sun bathe a little- fully dressed though! But it still wasn't warm enough for me to take my coat of, let alone something else. Have a lovely day!  Evo drugi dio posjeta Hutovom blatu . Čak sam pronašla i ovo malo mjesto koje nisam primijetila tijekom ranijih posjeta ovome mjestu. Morate malo hodati da biste tu dospjeli, ali isplati se prošetati. Samo slijedite stazu i znati ćete kada ga vidite. Zapravo smo čak i vidjeli orla dok smo bili tu. To j...
