Now Then Whenever - Inspire

Do I really need to go back to school?






Found here, here and here

PS. Forget English (I am just a bad typer), I think I need a lesson on Physics (or is it Biology or Auxology). Those teachers are extremely short for those blackboards!

Another Diner en Blanc in France. This year....in the Cour Carrée at the Louvre in Paris. Note you have to take your own epicurean repasts, and also your own tables, chairs, glasses, silver and napery.

Bathrooms

After my couple of posts on bathrooms, I must admit I have been too overwhelmed to decide what I like best and why.

Organising them into groups has helped me, so that if I was to go down the process of renovating a bathroom or installing a new one it would keep me focused particularly on the budget and where I want to splurge. I hope this will and has helped you. To be frank, I think this has pretty much turned me off the process for quite a while at least.

Anyway, I hope you found your favourite bathroom colours, wall/floor features, fittings/fixtures, and style/wow. For all of these it is still super important to consider the layout.

Here are a few more that probably sum up each of the groups...

I am loving the crafty way of resurrecting the lantern and the space above your head.

Colour inspired


another doily inspired

Moon inspired

Then if you are inspired by the sputnick light, there is a creative way to reproduce it here.

Getting more into the party spirit, you may also like the beribboned affect here.

And some origami balloon lanterns here

And if you really get inspired by paper, you should read Paper Runway
