Spring Cottage

Today is my birthday and it would be great to invite you all to my house and celebrate this milestone I do not consider at all obvious or trivial: one more year of life, emotions, friendship, and dream of things seen, can not and should not be considered trivial ...

What's easier for us miniatures, which open the door to welcome friends home and in our dreams?

So, I thought the best way to welcome you, was to present my Cottage, born in my heart and made by my hands, with much, much help from all of you who are a valuable source of inspiration and confidence optimistic :-)

In any particular will find some 'me and a bit' of you, all mixed together, in the forms and colors to give life to this little house all twisted and patched, but so bright and welcoming ...
Someone, of course, has made a real contribution to this project and many more on the way, the two doves on the roof, escaped from the cage of heaven, are Lisette;

the small plate with the roses at the door input is Ira ;

jars and cans with lavender are Sans ;

For those wondering if they were, the design and structure of the cottages are my work, for better or for worse!

The materials all come from the drawer of my desk, but the foam used for the structure, which was abandoned in the cellar for the rest

paper, Bristol board, corrugated cardboard, acetate sheets for the windows, a pair of scissors, the stucco and lots of patience :-)

The plan of the house is very simple: they are two overlapping rooms.

the ground floor, lounge - kitchen: the floor is made of a "plateau" of bleached paperboard packaging, as well as skirting boards, the front door and windows, the wallpaper has been downloaded from the Internet; chairs and belief were purchased rough on ebay, and repainted and lined in tissue paper and printed by me.

As I mentioned earlier, this house was born from the absolute necessity to externalize love the soft colors and vintage items in a word, my soul "shabby"!

In this regard, I must thank Frederica, Mercedes and Lena through their delightful cottage shabby, I have offered many suggestions on the layout and the type of furniture to be used, as well as the ABC on accessories.

The table is made of Bristol board with the cable core wire, and beads.
The teapot, which has launched a new collection of miniatures shabby, is Loredana .

The sink is recycled furniture from the Victorian House: with the new fabric, combined with the cushions of the chairs, has gained something new and fresh.
The floral arrangement hanging from the ceiling Ira is .
The "storage box" and Lara .
boxes and paper roll on the bottom shelf of the cupboard, are Jill .

This is a detail of the garret window, view from the outside on the ledge you can see the bowls of flowers Michelle .

A small window that corresponds to the second room of the cottage, the attic bedroom, where everything reflects my desire for peace and tranquility, the soft colors take over the decisions already made on the ground floor, simple furnishings give the environment and clean air of romance.
The bed is made by me with the usual method of the power cord (I love the power cord!) And Etage is cardboard and wooden skewers: both projects are on the fabulous book Lea Frisoni.
The small frames on the walls are Roel .

The box of chocolates and Victorian hats are Luned ...

Despite being a tiny house, I have so many projects in my head that I'll probably build something to contain

:-) You all know how wonderful and I did not add details are not immune from this irresistible impulse, so I hope that you will follow me in this romantic adventure ...

Now I have to run to greet you and attend to all that the house in scale 1 / 1 requires, although it is my birthday ...

Among other things, it is also my fourth wedding anniversary, so the festivities to celebrate today require a commitment by my very special

:-) Thanks for coming to see me, friends.

Although my health has not yet fully recovered, I'm better enough that I can devote some little work for the cottage, especially to spend a few hours of fun and carefree ...

Now that they took home the influence of my husband and my daughter, I spend sleepless nights and I do not even know how the day can keep your eyes open!

However, some progress has been made inside the house lost in the woods: in spite of its bad condition and state of abandonment in which he was, the girl went to live there was On a lot of trouble to fix it and make it a warm and bright ...

Rash One Week After Waxing

(and for all lovers of SMEG)

How many of you know, our friend Rosanna these days is involved in the decoration of a beautiful miniature refrigerator he received as a gift ...

is playing a very famous model who, in turn, is the reproduction of old refrigerators Americans of the '50s and '60s.

It so happens that I do possess a copy in the scale 1 / 1 in my own kitchen and can show in all its glory :-)

Although the pink color attracted me a lot, when I opted for choice classic cream, which occurs in all the accessories in my kitchen and my house ...

For my husband and me, it was the realization of a dream but I have to agree with Rosa that the fame and the price of this appliance are not proportional compared to its value: it has always worked badly, since the first day, and technical assistance were (and, I suspect, will continue to be) the applicants and expensive ...

So, after all, dear Rosanna, enjoy better specimen in miniature and painted pink with no regrets!

An affectionate hug

A place all to myself (and you)

This image gives me more of an 'emotion and I'm really happy to share it with you ...

First there is the delicate poetry of the teapot Loredana which sheds light pink also my home: it was a great thrill to finally see up close all the perfection and skill with which it was made, after so many times admired from afar the bravery of this extraordinary talent Italian :-)

But you will agree with me that the Victorian House is not suitable to hold items so romantic and full of color (pink!) And I'll do a great, great effort to comply with philological choices correct, but a little austere.

So, day after day, has matured the idea of \u200b\u200bbuilding a "container" is best for all the thumbnails that I find adorable and that, until now, I had to watch with some regrets ...

I was playing with the idea of \u200b\u200ba Roombox and without realizing it I found myself doing the project for a small house with a roof, doors and windows!

Today this project has become reality, inspired by the wonderful work that day come to life thanks to you all once again I owe you because you are unaware of the supporters and promoters of all my efforts in miniature, to support the view that the enthusiasm is really contagious

:-) So, what you see is The first, very first photo taken in my Shabby Cottage.

And that is "shabby" there is no doubt, given that more than a cottage (definition also very kindly!), Seems long forgotten in a hut in a forest and rearranged by means of luck from a girl romantic.

But I am sure that is the perfect place to hide away and dream, in full freedom, a world that exists only in pink in my heart ...
