Vintage cabinet before&after

Today I'm sharing with you my latest project - vintage bedside cabinet before&after. The cabinet has been sanded, painted and waxed over the course of 2 days. I'm very pleased with it and how the makeover added so much character to it!

Cave house - is it possible?




Alexandre De Betak house in Mallorca is extraordinary. This means that the walls and ceiling are uneven and mirror the cave. The interior design is not uniform or clearly defined as it happens in traditional houses. In this stone house the floor is covered with soft pebbles and most furniture pieces are made from natural wood and they have an original design.

African decor (1)






African decor via Swahilli African Modern

Bring a truly hand made touch of african creativity to your home. African artisans will not let you down. Using a range of different crafting materials...trees (banana palm trees, african mahogany), patterns (zebra skin finish) and hand carved elements they will astonish every visitor to your home. On the vases above you can admire three concentric circles representing the Adinkrahene, the chief of all symbols. Next, right in the middle, there is a great addition to a modern dining room, with cow bone inlay providing just a touch of contrast, these stunning bowls make serving side dishes an artful affair. Or simply bring some beauty of kenyan sawanna to your home/garden by purchasing one of vibrantly hand painted clay pots.
