RUN - do it for yourself

This morning I woke up at 6 to restart going to run before going to work.
must say I felt a lot better - more toned and energetic rather than waking up later and just rolling out of bed and do nothing, but breakfast.
The inspiration to keep on running came today also from friend of mine, which I must share with you.. :) hehe
fun, right? even tho'  not sure I would like Ryan, or some other charming exemplar waiting me tired and sweaty at the end of finish line.. but still..
the 2nd one of Ryan motivating me always to work out is THIS :D
isn't it an inspiring pic for a desktop background? :D heheh and plus motivating you to do squat as much as possible to get ready for a beach season :) btw, it is pretty close so watch out of those slutty brownies and tempting cupcakes. better try a homemade, healthy energy bar instead (recipe will follow). some other tips for working out and diet, snacks you may find here.

keep healthy - keep fit and keep on having fun :)

Inspiration du jour

I have always been a creative person with a huge imagination and obsession with colors, patterns and textures, style and accents and beauty in general around you. Always love to mixing them all up in my own way creating something unique in your outfit, home or kitchen.  for me - it has always been about details, chic and imagination.
the inspiration is coming to me everywhere - nature, spring, people around me or in the streets, magazines, books, pictures, travel and the best resource of all - available 24/7 - internet.
My top 3 places to be is Pintrest, Indulgy, We Heart It and Piccsy to explore, collect and get inspired.

So today decided to share my inspiration with you :)
mmm, brownie - strawberry cupcake

the Spring is coming so eat means also summer is just around the corner. and when the Spring is in the air it inspires me to make a Girl's night in.. (ladies, get ready, I have plans for you and Spring :)
and this - this is something amazing! I am printing this out and putting on my Postcard-Inspiration wall at my bedroom to use it more often!
as I am a huge postcard lover and collector than having my own postcard project running as well. however, not yet for public as still need to add some details, but it is coming :)
btw, this ceramic plate are made by a Justnoey a designer and illustrator and artist. check her creations here. Loving the postcard plates, must have them! :) luckily she is selling them on Etsy.

mmm, tea-time. Already imagining this together with a brownie-cupcake on a lazy Sunday afternoon :)
up-up and away.. clouds and sunset.. perfect for a dreamer :)

Easter Inspiration: DIY, Recipes, Decoration

I have always loved Easter feeling, because it is all about colors, coloring, DYIs, games, eggs, holidays and bunnies!! :) when I was kid we used to wake up on Easter morning to go searcing in the garden where the Easter bunny has left eggs+gifts to us with our name tags on it. it was always so exciting. than later the day you have a nice breakfast with family with some typical easter desserts and egg fights and than you hit the city to participate in differetn activities around. markets, contests, games, dancing performances etc. than is
the tea time and family and relative meeting..ahh memories,memories. anyway, this entry is nto about memories but about Inspiration and ideas how to create a cute Easter weekend and make your house around you look a little nicer.
I usually color eggs with a natural colors (like onions - blue and brown, tea, red beets, raspberry brunches, etc to get differetn colors) and weeds, flowers and herbs as well as rise and grains to make differetn patterns.
here are some pictures taken by my brother (he is really good at this) with my mom's creations. she is a master, but I try to keep up.

so thisSaturday I will be trying to make something like this as well. (if need an advice - drop me a line).
As today feeling inspired than will try to make some Easter sweets as well. and I found this awesome chick cupcakes.
How to make healthy muffins you can see here . The other idea for Easter chick-cupcakes would be with grated lemon topping and chocolate.
than I found how to make Easter pretzels :) at stoplookingetcookin.  isn't this fun? :)

for some real egg decoration could make something like this:
really simple and looks great.
 for a table decoration all you need is some colorful cutlery and napkins and string and you can create art! :)
than if creation finds you, can make your ownbunny-napkins. check out the tutorial of Natalie here .
continuing with creations check out this awesome tutorial by Fashion Diva here.

to make some decorations of egg shells all you need to do is to have some ideas, colors, nail polishes and you can go Easter-wild.
to make some "snacks" for the bunny or a candy carrot bag like this check out the tutorial of Clare here
and don't forget about cards this year as well. Check out these vintage, Easter postcards and tags.
