Leopard fever attacks home: SOS!!

{awww❤ having this baby at home would be amazing, wouldn't it??}

All of you know how is my obsession with leopard print in everything {and when I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING}

I've been checking my posts on the blog about leopard print {and man, there are a lot of them!!}, but I didn't see any post about home decoration with leopard print. And as most of you know, I´m back in Madrid, so I´m moving to a new "home, sweet home" {C❤ and M❤}, so I just can't stop thinking about decoration ideas, and leopard print is always a good one!!

Of course, sometimes you need to be a little brave to decorate a home with this kind of print, and I don't like the "too much" either, so let's see just some little details that are going to make your home look a little different!

 

{this is for the bravest}

{what about this pillow on a simple black or brown coach??}

And to make something new, here you have two DIY on leopard print, I know you are as excited as me!!

Do you remember my post about the package with leopard print  duct tape? Ok, you need that and... that´s it!

Can you imagine that this paint was real?? It would be amazing, I know it!!

But of course it´s kind of impossible {today}BUT you can do it!!! It´s suuuuuper easy, and this works for a wall, for a little part of the wall, or for a pocket on your jeans or whatever!!

I found this simple tutorial:

Hope you enjoy this post, more Mrs Bitchface than never!!

Before & after: from a bedroom to a wardrobe!

Welcome to any girl's dream: having a wardrobe!

I'm sure any of us had, at least once in our life, in having a wardrobe. I always wanted one. I mean, I don't have thousands of bags and shoes {no, I'm not SJP in that ridiculous serie}, but I'm a girl, and as a good girl, I love clothes!!

So, imagine that you have something like this. What would u do??

BINGO!

A wardrobe!! When the other room of my home was free, I just wanted run from the hall to my room like wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!! My dream is going to become true, thanks God!!

An this is what I did:

I think that, just with the pictures, you can see I'm a bags, perfums & sunglasses lover, right??

Hope you like it!!

Come on birds, Spring is here!!

The first day of the Spring was a surprise {at least here in Madrid}, cause you imagina sun, flowers, birds... and the first thing I saw that day was SNOW. For the first time this year, I saw snow, not in winter, not, the first day of Spring. A little crazy, I know.

But our spring spirit is the same, so today, let's see some birds for clothes, for home & for life!

ps: I'm watching "Inception", so as fast as it ends, I will comment you back. For the momento I don't understand ANYTHING.

pps: idea for a tattoo - three little birds

Breaking rules: Black for Valentine's Day!

All of u know how much I love black to decorating. And I love to think about decorate on VDay, because here we have a good ocassion to break rules on decoration: typically, black is a sad color {not for me}, and Valentine's Day is, for tradition, a happy day, so WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO USE BLACK?? And also, because I love ANY excuse to change the decoration at home.

Well, for me is the best option!! Here I have some options I've seen surfing over the internet!!

Ook, and after all this, I would like to make a special mention for this artist, who has passed away recently:

We will always love your voice.

Before & After! photo frame!

{sorry for the cell phones pics... all I had in that moment}

How can you turn a boring photo frame as in the first picture, into a totally rock & cute photo frame like this one?

Easy!

What do you need?

Well, here's the necessary materials:

A photo frame (obviously)

A photo

Glue

Scissors

The rest of the materials, are optional: stickers, papers, scrap paper, threads, letters, loops, magazines... WHATEVER YOU WANT.

First of all, I suggest you cover the frame, because if you mess it up or do not like the result, simply remove the paper and you won't spoil the frame. But, of course, you also can paint it.

In my case, I covered the frame with a page of a magazine (truthfully). I used a Chanel advertisement, to be exact.

This is how it looked:

Once you have your covered frame, then you can start decorating!

I suggest you do not stick anything down until you've tried all the possibilities, that way you can choose what's the best!

And... voi-là! This is my photo frame for my baby:

The best thing about doing your own, is that there's not other photo frame like this one!

Hope see your own photo frames guys!! It's worth a try!

Let's Decorate!! Before & After

 {before}

{after}

Everyone (at least, if your a student!) has a cork board at home. 

You have two options: you can have a typical cork board (wooden frame, papers, papers and papers)

or you can have a completely inventive, original cork board! That's what I wanted with mine, and I think I got it!!! I mean, I don't think there's another cork board like mine, anywhere in the world. To make it, I used myself as inspiration, and here's the result!

Let's turn your bored cork board in a cheerful and only cork board! Here are some tips to make your very own cork board! What d'u need??

A cork board (obviously), and all the special things that appeal to you!

{in my case, memorabilia: pictures, tickets, stuff that i such as maps, stickers...}

I wanna share with u a detail from my cork board on this close up:

All of u know my love for maps (in fact, I did a post about it), so in my cork board, there's a map where I put points in every city I visit.

Other sources of inspiration to decorate your cork board, are magazines

Sometimes you can find beautiful letters and cute quotes like this one:
