White and colorful

El blanco va con todo. Para mí, un par de paredes blancas suelen ser el mejor bastidor para crear un ambiente colorido, divertido y cálido. Y eso se nota en mis boards de Pinterest (sobre todo en este y también este otro).

White matches everything. For me, white walls are the best canvas to create a colorful, fun and warm space. And it shows in my Pinterest boards like this and this one too). Moodboard Made in Argentina

Con un par de cuadros, almohadones o alfombras, un lugar que parece básico y frío puede cobrar vida, sin necesidad de arriesgarse a pintar de colores audaces y que después resulte un desastre, no?

With just a few frames or textiles, an otherwise cold and basic space can come to life. Painting the walls in bold colors takes courage, because what if it turns out too loud or too dark, right?

Y no nos olvidemos de las plantas, que a la hora de aportar color y vida a una casa son imbatibles! Pero si, como yo, no tenés buenas experiencias con la jardinería de interior, mejor optar por objetos inanimados :).

And let’s not forget about plants, which are the best source of color and life for a space. But if you, like me, have a black thumb, just stick to inanimate objects instead, ha!

Qué opinan? Blanco con acentos de color, pinturas de colores arriesgados para las paredes o blanco minimalista? Cuenten!

So what do you prefer? White with colorful accents, walls in bold colors or a white and minimalist space? Do tell!

Mirror madness.

I just love mirrors. And I can’t wait to have a bigger apartment, so I can hang at least one of them somewhere: bedroom, living room, it doesn’t matter. They not only make a space look bigger and brighter, but also serve as an option of wall art. Here are some samples of what I’m talking about:

Make a Wish..

I have always dreamed of a wall full of shelves in my living room, you know, to display books and nice stuff. But since Nico (my boyfriend) and I rent a small apartment, we can’t make it true… yet. We’re planning on buying a bigger apartment soon (hopefully next year), so I’m dreaming about those shelves again (our lovely maid would be thrilled to dust it off!). May be once I get it I can start collecting something, like vases, teapots, and all that kind of useless and beautiful objects. We would definitely put our books, which aren’t a lot now but hopefully would grow in number in the future.
Here are some cool display options for living rooms. Have a great weekend!
