The bottom line is that if it is in a martini glass chances are it can be called a martini!

It doesn’t matter what flavor you like, you can create or purchase a martini in that flavor.

It seems like this winter is hanging on forever. We are all excited about putting away that heavy winter coat for another year. Spring is the time of year when I was born, therefore its my favorite season. I learned that in life, simple things could make you very happy, with that said, I am looking forward for that fresh air breeze flowing through open windows, new life breaking through the ground, the brighter skies and the sound of twittering birds. Spring cleaning and redecorating my house for the warmer days to come are my favorite things on my “to do” list.

Here are some ideas of how to get a jump-start on spring.

Replace the winter dark throw pillows with your brighter ones, the heavy decorative throws with the colorful and lighter styles.

Freshen up the bedroom with pretty new sheets and add patterned pillowcases to an all-white bed.

Add a hit of upbeat colour in the kitchen with a set of crisp, classic tea towels.

Brighten up the table mixing patterned plates with everyday dinnerware.

Take new pictures of your family and display them in a beautiful hand painted photo frame.

Hand-made doilies are known all over Europe as macrame. In Romania, the making of macrame doilies has become an art that can truly measure up to painting, music, writing, and sculpting.
This Romanian point lace doily is hand made by Tudora Obrejan and will be a little piece of art in your house or a beautiful present from Romania.

One of the reasons is their splendor: the fine thread, the minute details in each pattern, the uniqueness of embroidery, and the creativity each creator has to offer. Another reason is their durability: these doilies last beyond the lifetime of their creators to grace the life of their inheritors. Macrame are made to last, their possession is eternal.

Macrame’s acceptance and popularity is visible in many Romanian houses. Art experts know very well the process of creating them, and their value is appreciated across Europe. Their existence in many houses has become a fashion. You see them on dining room tables accompanied by beautiful vases, on vanities surrounded by jewelry boxes or candles, or as the sole decoration on a coffee table.

Their value is incalculable. The doilies’ value consists mainly in the talent of their makers, who learn the artistry of creation from the most experienced and dedicated teachers in this field: their mothers, grandmothers, aunts, or friends. The creation of these wonderful pieces takes months and months; only devoted macrame lovers complete them. Patience and determination are qualities required for this art.

Romanian village women are the creators of macrame doilies. These are incredible women who work from sunrise to sunset and longer. These are the women who work the fields side by side with their husbands, raise children, prepare food, and are in charge of housekeeping. These same women, during hard winter days or long summer nights, meet in small groups with other women to share their stories and create crafts for their home such as feather pillows and covers, draperies, carved vases, clothes, and, most impressively, macrame doilies. While experienced women are making macrame doilies, the village’s young women swarm around their mothers curious to learn how to make them, and maybe one day be like their mothers. This is the time when these girls, by learning from their mothers, also preserve tradition. It takes ambition, hard work, talent, and many years for these young ladies to turn into dexterous, skillful, macrame creators. And when the time comes, they will be ready to teach their daughters all the secrets and skills learned from their mothers that they perfected over the passing years.

When it comes to decorating the guest room you should give it a little extra thought.
It is very important that your guest room is just as nice as the bedroom that you sleep in. There are lots of things that you can incorporate in the decor of the guest room, but the main items are a bed, the nightstand and something to put clothing on. Paint plays an important role when decorating the guest room as well. You don’t want dark walls or white walls that look like a hospital. You just need to have a room that your friend or family member could lay down in and relax.
Create a tranquil atmosphere by incorporating unique scented candles.
Add cut fresh flowers in a beautiful hand blown glass vase. Make you friends feel like they just got into a resort.

There are a lot of people who will have a collection of some sort. The challenge is how to incorporate collectibles in their home.

First of all you should keep yourself organized.

This means that you might want to get a display case for some of your collectibles and think about ways that you can show off the collection to others, but also not to clutter the home. You will find that the solution to most people’s problems is the curio cabinet. This is a great way to place your knickknacks on display, but not ruin the integrity of the home.

When it comes to trying to keep your home looking good and your collections in order, you will need to know your limits in space and learn how to find a good curio cabinet that will not cost a lot of money so that you can put your collection in a orderly fashion and neatly display them.

Collections often hold people back from having a home of their dreams, however, if you learn to control the collection and not allow the collection to rule you, you’ll be able to incorporate the collections into the design of your home and not have that dreaded clutter.

A new and popular collector’s item is pewter fairies with real butterfly wings. There is an exquisite selection at homedecorbylulu.com.

FAIRYLAND

(Maud Keary)
A Fairy’s house stands in a wood,
Midst fairy trees and flowers,
Where daisies sing like little birds
Between the sun and showers,
And grasses whisper tiny things
About this world of ours.
Such flowers are there beside the way,
Lilies and hollyhocks:
Blow off their stalks to tell the time
Tall dandelion clocks;
While pansies ring an hourly chime
Like a wound music-box.
Some day shall we two try to find
This strange enchanted place?
Go hand in hand through flower-lit woods
Where living trees embrace –
And suddenly, as in a dream,
Behold a fairy’s face!

We are excited to introduce new additions to our pewter fairy collection. Just like the others, these also feature real butterfly wings.
