Hearth and home

“People discuss art and try to understand it

 while it exists just to be loved.“

- Claude Monet -

I don’t know about another countries but in Poland it’s the kitchen where people spend most of their day time. It’s the kitchen where our family and social life (during house parties) usually goes on. It’s that part of our houses that somehow makes us feel comfortable to spend time in. It's the heart of our homes.

So what makes them nice and cosy? The way we decorate it may have a great influence, I believe. 

So, here are some of my kitchen decoupage.

 

 

Of earth and stars..

"Be humble

for you are made of earth...

Be noble

for you are made of stars..."

Today let’s talk about Eldanii not being all about just decoupage :)

Sometimes I also make some special-event cards or invitations or albums etc.. which are, as you can see, more scrapbooking then decoupage.

Let me show you just some of those...

More and more often I think that I would like to try designing and creating something different, using some other techniques, some more creativity, use some more creative energy..

We'll see how it goes... :)

Thinking right..

“It isn't what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing

that makes you happy or unhappy.

It is what you think about it.”

- Dale Carnegie -

Tea boxes, I think, are one of the most often decorated with decoupage technique items.

Well, no wonder, apart from their obviously decorative role you can find it quite useful.

That makes them perfect unique gift for a special someone :)

They come in many different shapes and sizes, with or without dividers and then different numbers of them. The inner dividers organizes the space inside the box so you can use it for keeping not only tea bags but some jewelery, cosmetics or any small objects - things you may be collecting etc..

Oh, I made so many of those in my handcrafting carrier.

Let’s have a look at some of those now..
