A Tiny Office

We are in the heart of Paris and this is a rooftop space which used to be an old machine room that  previously housed a motor lift. It was in pretty bad shape due to the weather and since it had been vacant for a long time. When a design team rented the place decided to renovate it and completely transform it with the minimum possible budget. The team paid particular attention to economy of means and space but yet to be fully functional......

House Tour: Los Angeles Bungalow

This is a typical Eclectic house located in Los Angeles.
Notice the colors how vibrant they are and they make such a nice contrast?
This is because the owners were inspired by jungle's harmony of colors!
It was found in Houzz.

Entryways

How I wish I had an entry to my home!
Most apartments in Greece lack an entryway, as they are small and space is limited.
Or a mudroom for that matter. A place to take off our shoes, hang our coats and bags.
Am I asking too much? So allow me to dream that if I had an entryway it would
be something like that...

Blog Redesign!

It was high time to have my blog redesigned! I spent many many hours trying to figure out things,
creating buttons, choosing colors and stuff like that! I stayed awake until early
in the morning to get it to look like this. Finally it's done!



There are still some more customization and some little changes to be made,

I have great stuff to show you today! Great stuff from great Greek bloggers that
recently awarded me with the following awards. I'm very proud to present them to you,
they're inspirational, they're crafty, they're unique, they're all worth visiting!

The first one is from Art Nouveau:

Great blog which I love, posting inspirational pics every day and it's also 

included in my every day's addiction!

Art Nouveau is giving away for the month of February only, this amazing bed for 580Euro!

So hurry up and get it, it is amazing!

This one I received both from Faidra and from Thomi's world

Faidra is an amazing crafty girl, and I mostly loved the musical instrument

she created out of a simple drawer! Can you believe it? It is called "santouri"

and here it is:

or this one that could serve as a tray:

And take a look at what Thomi from Thomi's world did:

A diaper's cake! Isn't it awesome? She wrapped some diapers nicely, added little

blankets, some baby socks, toys and she created another

kind of cake which makes the perfect gift for a newborn baby, 

don't you agree? I love it!

So, thank you very much ladies for honoring me with these awards! In my turn I'll pass these awards to all

Decorating with Loud Modern Art

Hi everyone! I'm Jessica, a writer for Arcadian Lighting, a website with a wide selection of affordable light fixtures and a blog with daily interior design inspirations. I'm excited to be guest posting for Olga today because I'm going to be sharing some beautiful rooms with loud modern art.
Modern art is all about experimentation, and that can result in unexpected shapes or
bright, dramatic colors.
I hope you enjoy these rooms as much as I do!

Useful Links & Tips for Bloggers (Part II)

After the success that my previous post "Useful links and tips for Bloggers" had, 

I thought I should share with you some more links and tips that you may find interesting,
or even more if you've been wondering "Gosh... how do I do that?".

So, here we go...

1. OPENING LINKS IN A NEW TAB OR WINDOW

When you add a link to your text, there is a small white box at the left bottom where it says "open this link in a new window". Always tick that box so when someone clicks on the link, it will automatically open in a new tab or window, and this means that they won't have to leave your page and can return back!
