Storage space and an award

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 02:30:00 +0000

Hi. Hope your weekend was great. Mine was productive(and sunny!!). I'm used to live in small apartments so I know that every room needs to be used cleverly. Every girl needs her storage space! Above the door is a good location for extra shelves.

I want to thank so much Kristy of Design Chic blog for this award. I feel honored. If you haven't visited her blog yet, just go. I promise you won't regret.

Let's have a nice start to our week.

3 ways to make your living room cozy

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 23:00:00 +0000

Happy Friday! I've been sewing since morning... and finally, a chance to post. So here it is! 3 simple ways to make your living room comfortable for you and your guests. Well, Super Bowl is soon to come, right?

1. Places to rest your glass and snack plate. Side table and coffee table are a must.

2. Enough seats for everyone. Don't forget, puff is always a great option too.

3. Have a handy blanket(s). Especially in the winter time.

I wish you a terrific weekend!! I also want to thank all my visitors.

Good morning to all of you. It's just me or the month has passed us by almost unnoticed?(I'm looking forward to the Spring, though...). Today, I'm loving this shelf. You can find anything you looking for and I find it charming, too.
Have a fun Wednesday!!

Brooklyn home

Hope your new week is off to a great start. If you know me you know that I'm obsessed with NYC. It's one of the most fun cities I've lived in. This home is a dream house in a dream place. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. So organic & fresh.... love the white-wood combo!

Bow tie

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 17:53:00 +0000

I couldn't resist but share with you my first fashion project attempt, a bow tie. I'm content with the result, but I know it can be better. If you remember, this fabric is the one I used for my very first pillow. It works!
So I guess I'll be improving my bow tie on my weekend. Do you have plans??

I wish you a terrific weekend!

My home resolution- part III

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 16:32:00 +0000

Happy Thursday! A quick and easy way to give your home a new look- pillows. It's actually fun to mix and match colors & patterns. I've been going to this big fabric store and I get so excited when I see things I love...

These bellow are my newest projects. I have to mention that I just buy remnants(cheaper!), can you believe it? I find awesome remnants at the store. The floral fabric has more blue than the light brown seen here, and I think I'll keep it in the bedroom.

On my way to finish my other project(this time I'm trying a fashion project). Hope to see you tomorrow. Enjoy your day!!

ps: There're some blogs I still can't comment on. What is it? Anyone??

Warm coral

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 00:37:00 +0000

Hi you! How was your weekend? Mine was quiet... but I did sew 2 more pillows. I got more fabrics & one of them is a beautiful coral fabric. I'll take photos to share with you.

We got our first snow fall yesterday night... I like this mild winter a lot!! Have a nice evening.

ps: I'm having trouble commenting on some blogs. Not sure why.

Ikat pattern

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 22:44:00 +0000

I've been posting my latest projects (if you follow me you've seen pillows, napkins & table runner that I sewed) and because of that I'm learning a bit about textile which is great, also I've been searching for pattern trends in several sites & blogs and Ikat is almost in every site I came across. Ikat is a dyeing technique to pattern textile as seen here:

I'm loving the pillow and rug from West Elm. And, Anthropologie has not only these awesome Ikat pants, but furniture, shoes and hat too! Hope you have a fantastic week!!!

My home resolution - part II

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 17:41:00 +0000

Hello. It's a slow day for me, so I've decided to take photos of mine newest project/home resolution. I sewed 4 napkins & a table runner(you can see it in the last pic) for my dining table.

It's a rainy day. I had to work with almost no natural light, but I hope you enjoy the photos here. I'll be back tomorrow. I wish you a lovely day!

Lovely trend

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:25:00 +0000

Happy Wednesday! How are you? I keep seeing this trend over & over again. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy about it! I'm a huge fan of stripes...

For some reason, stripe has always been a pattern to go to when I want to sassy things up. Hope your winter is going well.

Bathroom wall...

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 22:28:00 +0000

Hi everyone. If there is something new to me is hanging art on my bathroom wall.

I learned to like it. I decorate my bathrooms now and I enjoy. It's a smaller space compared to the others, but still needs care. Don't you agree? What do you do to decorate your bathroom?

My home resolution

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 22:31:00 +0000

Hi. I've mentioned before that I was working on a new project for this year which I like to call home resolution. Last month, for no reason, I felt like sewing but I thought it was just a thought. And, days went by 'till this week I decided to learn how to sew! What the heck, it's a new year and my home needs change.

I've been postponing so many things in life just because I knew we'll be moving away soon. We currently live where my husband is attending school. We rent a small home where I managed to make it cozy without spending a lot. We are not fans of this city, so the only thing I know since we relocated here is that we'll be moving away in July of 2012 when he graduates. And because of that I never got furniture, painting, art, even clothes that I wanted just thinking about packing. But, this time I got a sewing machine! I'm so happy I did it. Why wait to live if I can perfectly do it now.

So, here they are. My first two pillows. I'm happy to say that more will come. Working on cloth napkins now. I'll share those later with you. Have a great weekend!

Red & Blue

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 03:18:00 +0000

How is your new year so far? I feel great, thank you. Plus, the weather has been awesome, meaning no snow - so happy about that. I have a project that I'm excited about for this hopeful year, but I'll share that next time. For now, this lovely color combo will do. Obviously, the mix & match of patterns are beautifully done here, but the red & blue work just as perfect together. Very inspiring to me!

2011 has been a great year. I went places I've not been before, I met people that has an important role in my life(my nephew, of course!), I discovered things and learned a little more to become a better person. I appreciate the inspiring blog world.

Have fun this weekend and I wish you a terrific 2012!

5 reasons why I love the holidays...

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 13:57:00 +0000

The holiday spirit is in the air, everywhere.

Time to decorate your home and make it cozy. This is the only time I really add things to my home.

Get sparkly! Wear a pretty dress(and have fun!)

Ok, for me, this is the only time of the year I bake. Perhaps, the only time I remember I can bake. I have a blast, though.

And, most importantly, time to celebrate with friends & family a great year that we're leaving behind and hope for a beautiful new year!

Why do you love the holidays?

10 days away...

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 15:14:00 +0000

Just 10 days away from Christmas day! So glad the snow has not fallen around here yet (so glad!). Ready to bake sugar cookies. Getting together with some friends this week and next. Done with Christmas shopping. Time to wrap the gifts up.
I adore the ideas above. Simple decor to get your home ready for the holidays. Happy Thursday!

Big mirror

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 13:28:00 +0000

Hello to you! I've been Christmas shopping here and there. I can't believe we're so close to the holidays. How is your shopping going?
The reason I want to share this photo above is all this room has in it. First, the mirror is huge & I love it! White sofa or even better, white sofa cover. And, the wicker chair dressed up with faux fur, clever! Hope you're having a delightful week!

Decor: {a seasonal touch}

noreply@blogger.com (PriscilaPetersDecor) — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 18:36:00 +0000

Hope you're having a fab weekend! I'm obsessed with this Christmas decor. You see it's there, but it doesn't overpower the house. As the designer & owner of the house says: " You don't want to take everything out of the room to bring Christmas in".

Besides the color pallet used throughout the house, I LOVE the barn doors & windows everywhere. And, the kitchen is so inviting! Happy Sunday!
