♥ washi paper tape

Ok ok I'm damn late! But i just discovere this wonderful product: washi paper tape.
What is it?

They can be used for gift-wrapping, more pretty packages, book-marking, arts and crafts and other projects, they are also perfect to decorate your handmade packages, scrapbooking, card making, fancy labels and any artsy collages. It is easy to tear by hand, write on and remove too.

Where can we buy them?

• UGUiSU: is an online store for Japanese stationery and gifts which is run&owned by Hiki. Hiki lives in Tokyo.
• Washimatta: karen sato is the lovely (nagging) wife of techan living and working in tokyo.

♥ exclusive vip event at Benefit

You can't believe what's happen to me yesterday, WOW. I flew back from Italy to London and on the plan the girls sitted next to me was reading the Sophie Kindella's new book. Is the new book in the bookshop!!?? I didn't know so I immediatly thought I had to buy it. Her last book (Twenties Girls) I read was so funny, great and light reading as well that I can't miss the new one!

Anyway I was walking throught spitalfield market to get home when I spotted an A4 poster hung on the window of Benefit Cosmetic' shop saiying: Celebrations for the launch of Sophie Kinsella new book: Mini Shopaholic....and more. Whhhhaaaaattttt????? Seriously?????

I went inside and I first got a free drink and some special and gorgeous cupcakes (I checked on line who was the maker!!) then a free natural and amazing make up (my husband liked that a lot!) and after that I attended the presentation of MINI SHOPAHOLIC, the Sophie Kinsella's newest book by her! What the next? I got my free autographed copy with a personal dedication!! Actually I coudn't help to tell her my story about the plan and the book and she was so amazed she told that to her agent and we laughed a lot. She is so cute and kind!

What fantastic welcome back did I got from my lovely London??!!

♥ freebie: recipe note

Here we go with the free template of the week, I made this pretty card for collecting the recipes from your friends.

♥ oh my shoes

This is my big passione: shoes. I love them (and bag too) more then other other accessories.
The best designer ever is Giuseppe Zanotti (3 - 4), have a look at those stunning creatures: white sandals with a big classy flower on the front, perfect for a bride and the other one more everyday use, in gimpy style, they are perfect for every occasion. The orange shoes are by Bionda Castana (1), it's a new finding I did thank to a girl friend of mine. Orange satin is a special choice for the summer. In black you can see a creation of Azzedine Alaïa (2), a Turkish designer. I really thik this style is amazing and unique.

The prices?? I don't wanna know them!!!

♥ flag toppers

I promise this is the last time i speak about flags and buntings but I coudn't help to don't make my own flags!!! I mede my flags to put on the top of your little sandwiches or simply food during your house party. I also add a writting so you can apprise your guests of wich kind of stuffing or ingredients there are in that specific sandwich or food. Nowaday there are a lot of vegetarina or allerging people so these my little flags can be helped.
So here you can find a paper with 4 different types of them in differnt colors too: Veggies, mayonnaise, meat and cheese.

You surely already know how to build and stick the little flags around toothpicks.

Click here to download the pdf.

Hope you like them! Print, Stick and Party!!

♥ words at the ready

Here we go with another page to print! I made this really useful print to hang up the wall for me. It's just a paper where I can write the new English words I learn and where I can write also the Italian definition so my fiancé can learn them back. I find it very usefull because I have them always under my eyes and this helps me to memorize them better. If you are learning a new language I think this can support you. Click here to download the pdf.

Enjoy your summer

♥ pom poms

Here another thing I do love! Pompoms are so cute and fluffy that they immediately make happier and cutier the room where they are. I spotted on the amazing Sodapop Design blog a tutorial to hand-make it and it look like easy to make (hopefully). All you need is: fabric, paper lantern, glue gun and patience. I'll try making during my hols and I'll give you feedback. I love spending time checking Caro's blog out, I always find beautiful inspirations, original ideas and cute handmade things to make! Check her post here.

Do you think is this DIY too much for you? No problem put hand to your pocket and go to the Etsy shop: A Dash of Coulour: a wonderful world of tissue art! You can buy gorgeous pompom right there!

♥ flags&bunting

You already know I’m totally addicted of flags and buntings. So I went hunting for them around the web and I nicely found a lot of really cute handmade and super-cool things. I decided to do a summary of them such as a post and share them with you.

Some inspirations:

1) Cake Bunting by Kiki La Ru
Kiki La Ru's Cake Bunting makes cakes look extra special and festive! It’s really something special and unique, a real eye-catcher! She says: Every time I bring a cake topped with my Cake Bunting to a celebration, it gets a lot of 'ooohs' and 'aaaahs.'
2) Little Newspaper bunting by Corikindered
3) Valentine's Day Garland by Lavander. Use different type of papers and choose the size of the flags then sew them together and use them for embellishing your room adding a little love or paste them on your Valentine’s card, Valenine’s menù or use them simply to better wrap your gift.

Print and Party:

1) Free printable flags by Daily Suze. They come in 4 cute hues: coral pink, light teal, lavender, pastel green. Suze made 2 different sizes of them (big and small). You can find 4 sheets of printable paper bunting she has prepared for us!
2) free downloads by Creature Comfort. You can find here another set of bunting in 2 sizes (party bunting and food topper flags). Because of the used colors these would work great for a nautical themed party, a child's room decor or more, let your mind work.
3) Alphabet letters bunting by Ruffled, check my past post for all details.

Print as many pages as you'd like!!

Invitations:

1) Here my favorite finding, it’s really brilliant!! The Wedding Chicks offers us possibility to customize these gorgeous "save the date" cards for free at their website, I’m totally in love with the colors and those birds too! And also it’s very easy to get yours, go and try!

2) Bunting invitations and rsvp cards by Haley Dolan of Bread of Many . They are available for free download in three colors on Nonpareil Magazine.

3) If you don’t have time or you are simply no good at hand-making things you can have a look this website Tea For Joy where you can find invitations to buy.

Play and have fun!

♥ getting ready for meteor showers

The meteor shower is peaking this week, probably the best evening to watch them will be on Thursday 19th in Uk so i'm getting ready to have a oudoor evening. It is expected to peak at around 11pm and continue through the night and the perfect condition of the waether could help us to spot them properly. Seeing stars in their full splendour, shining bright in the sky above you, is one of the unofficial wonders of the natural world and don't forget every fallen stars you spot you can express a desire.

1) Bring a lounge chair or blanket, so you can relax and look up with ease. Check out some of my favorite blankets from Toast (from €59)
2) Some candles might help you in the dark and let me say that they makes atmosphere. I found these wonderful outdoor glass candle holders. They are by Sundance (from € 20).

Are you ready for your meteors night?

♥ travelling around England in quirky accomodations

Canapy & Stars has a fabulous range of extravagante holiday structures in UK, curated by Sawday. They include lots of marvellous carvans and canopies with a particular interest in treehouses (future plans include a Georgian treehouse).
It's was really amazing to bump into that website.

It's a wonderful, cute and cozy collection of beautiful and quirky places of a camping kind! Over the coming months they’ll have everything from stunning tree houses and luxury yurts to log cabins and Gypsy caravans – even an Iron Age roundhouse. Always comfortable and cozy, sometimes unashamedly eccentric, these will be Special Spaces to stay for those in search of escape, mild adventure or the chance to go slow. Have a look at the Canopy & Stars website for summer holidays with a dash of eco-panache: http://www.canopyandstars.co.uk/ .

Thay are lied around Cornwall, East Lothian, Sussex, Somerset and more regions.

Aren't they gorgeous?? I can't help thinking at the romance of sleeping in those places ... Unfortunatelly They are sold out for the next few month and i don't think it's a great idea go there during the fall.

♥ cycle hire london

Please have a look and enjoy your weekend printing some of these stunning papers.

Actually ?'ve just found this full of inspiration blog... I think I'll spend part of my weekend browsing it.

♥ ibiza

It's no true Ibiza is just a crazy island for young people wanna be crazy during night life. I went there last week to celebrate my birthday with some friends of mine and we had a really good laugh long weekend. Actually we chose to have relaxed days because of my little baby I'm proudly carring. Anyway here some suggestion regarding awesome venues, beaches and places I saw there:

Las Salinas is a very long, wide crescent of pale sandy beach and it is bordered by pine woods. You can enjoy the sun also with music blaring from the party bars (The Jockey Club or Sa Trinxa Beach Bar). Location? really handy because it takes just 10 minutes driving from Playa d'en Bossa or Ibiza Town or 30 min by bus number 14.

Cala Vedella is on the west side of the island, it's just 10 minutes driving from St. Josè. It's a little bay, the crystal clear water is perfekt for swimming and there is a stunning view that is perfect to watch an amazing sunset. It's popular mainly for families and couples, as well as a good choice of restaurants, bars and shops too.

Portinax is an other magnificent gulf with crystalline clear water, high, rocky shorelines and a seabed of fine, white sand. the location is north east, 10 minutes from San Juan. We had a nice morning ending up with a yummy fish lunch just with the table of 2 metres away from the sea.

To avoid: surely Cala Talamanca. It's a pity because the restaurants there are really cute and good but the sea is ...honestly ... horrible!!

What about the evening? here just a couple of suggestion.
Blue Marlin is perfect to close goodly your day up with a cocktail on their total white mattres on the beach. Expencive.

Plaza del Sol restaurant is just on the wall of the old town, you can be delighted by a stunning view of ibiza town. The atmosphere is classy, romantic and you'll have dinner with candle's light. Expencive.

We didn't have time to check this beach venue in playa d'en bossa out but it seems to be really cool: Sands.

At last if you have time to go to Formentera don't miss it!! It's such a magic island! When you get the island you can rent easily a motorbike and go around the island simply by that. I'll post some suggestion on Formentera in a separate post.

Hope this can be inspiring for your hols.

♥ MARIMEKKO

Hey hey do you already know the brand Marimekko? I felt in love for a dress of it and all his abstract design fabrics last years and since then I always check Marimekko's moviments. Now I bumped into this set of free wallpapers, aren't they really cute and cool? My favorite it's that with the strawberry and I'll use it to wrap the next birthday gift!!

♥ free printable bunting

I couldn't wait to share with you this fantastic free printable available I found at Ruffled? I couldn't help to pop in here and spread the wolds immediatly!! It's a amazing printable alphabet-letter bunting!! I love and I have to admit I'm pretty addicted of bunting and flags. This printable is stunning!!

Let's party!

♥ agrycult: new way to get fresh fruit & veg

I'm really glade when I bump into some new, really interesting and exciting projects! Well here we go! I found this website called AGRYCULT where you can get a subscription for a box of italian and fresh fruit or veg and they are able to send it straight to your place!! It's a great idea!

We don't need to go anymore to the supermarket, we know what we are eating, we know that they are italian, we know that they are fresh, we can eat the seasonal veg and we also help the italian agricolture to grow up! They can source seasonal food and support Italian farming. You can aslo buy some cheeses from them and I guess they wanna enlarge their store with more and more local prodact. I think this comunity of farmers is based in Molise (South of Italy).

The objective of this is to come together buyers and local farmers: it's a simple way to eat healthily, and it doesn't cost the earth.

They are working a lot on line right now and you can reach them on their blog, twitter and facebook! You can aslo find some recipes and advise how is the best way to cook and eat the food.

Marco Vitale is one of the creator of this service and I have to admit that these guys are doing a really good job!

How it works:
Every week they can send you a balanced diet of fresh fruit and veg that changes with the seasons.
You'll get delicious, organic fruit&veg from experienced small-scale growers who love what they do.
Why are they asking for a subscription? Because your weekly order can help them to plan crops with the farmers, keeping them in business and you in healty food.
If you are interested in this new and ambitious project contact them for sure they'll help you better understand this challenge.

I like this and I wanna support it!!

♥ Unité d’Habitation in Marseille by Le Corbusier

Here an amazing building from Le Courbusier's project. this colourful builting is located in Marseille and was built in 1947-1952. It comprises 337 apartments arranged on 17 floors. The building also incorporates shops, sporting, medical and educational facilities, and a hotel too. This building should be a "tool to live" where 1.500 people can live leisurely. Now the Unité d'Habitation is an hotel: nothing has changed since 1952 : neither the space organization nor the light, the clearness, the parc; the facades or the furniture. Spirit and materials are there.

It offers a great diversity of services : cute bedrooms (cabin), studios, large bedrooms, mini suit and more.

"It is a rare place for stay, charged with sense, magic and calms that we propose to you".

I can wait to be there!!

Last weekend it was the festival to celebrate Tate Modern’s 10th anniversary and there was a free arts festival for all in the turbine hall. This event was No Soul For Sale – A Festival of Independents. The festival brought together over 70 of the world’s most exciting independent art spaces, non-profit organizations and artists’ collectives, from Shanghai to Rio de Janeiro.
Here on the rigth some snaps regarding the exibithion I saw, actually all of them were very strange and weird, honestly I couldn't get the properly meanings of everyone. There were also some perfomrances,art events, music, and film. I had 2 hours of really good time.

"E stasera affini la lingua, non nel senso di baci, nel senso di parole. E io avrei una gran voglia di ridere, ti prego, dimmi che stasera mi farai ridere, col vino e le anguille e i gesti delle mani. Vengo a vederti, ma tu fammi girare la testa, che nonpensopiùnonpensipiù, cantiamo sbagliati a collo rovesciato e poi facciamo la cosa giusta, ci complementiamo."

♥ lovely birds

This afternoon I went down to the city to buy some accessories for my new sweet home. I went to Muji, Butlers and John Lewis. I got losing at John Lewis, 7 floors of everything and trust me you can find there loads of really pretty things at convenience prices but you can spot them out after an hard and scrupulous research, this definitely means you should go there without boyfriend!!

Anyway I found everything I was looking for and also lot of wonderful other thing but I was good and I didn't buy them ... so far! I found so many stunning things on bird theme and I immediatelly felt in love with them! I'm going to be back really soon!! I collected some pictures of them here on the right, are not all these birds so cute and gorgeous? All of them are from John Lewis: you can hang these oh-so-pretty fabric bird decorations or this delicate bird ornament, made just from wire and wood, around the home to brighten your space in summertime.
The metal tealight holder (on the top) is perfect for adding a Victoriana-inspired look to home and of course it can miss a little bird hooked on top. These pretty bird-shaped placecard holder with a silver finish are my favorite after the bed sheets: pastel-coloured, embroidered birds perch prettily on this chic and white bed linen. Girls ... I need to be back there right now and pick them up!!!

♥ tapas night

Here my last supper, I don't know why but I love the little food, finger food, all food you can pinch and which food is as perfect as tapas??!. I bet with my boyfriend, we had a competition on SPANISH TAPAS. It was a really good night!! we bought lots of ingredient and Spanish wine as well and we started to make our 3 tapas per each! On the left you can see my tapas: croquettas, mozzarella frita, toast with eggs, tuna and ali&oli, everything was really yummy. He made patatas brava whit chilli souce, bacalao fritos and stuffed pimientos. Who won? .... it was a very hard decision, everything was good, tasty and high quality food. Eventualy both of them were winners!

the ingredients?? Best quality, low cost and good fun!!

♥ last news from London: WHITE CHAPEL GALLERY

My last exploring took this straordinaty gallery: WHITE CHAPEL GALLERY (E1 7QX).

It is a public art gallery on the north side of Whitechapel High Street. Internationally acclaimed for its exhibitions of modern and contemporary art and its pioneering education and public events programmes, the Gallery has premiered international artists such as Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Nan Goldin, and provided a showcase for Britain’s most significant artists from Gilbert & George to Lucian Freud, Peter Doig to Mark Wallinger. Actually all of their exhibitions are quite odd and weird but you can miss it!
