Finished curtains

 There were only missing the white inside curtains in the bedroom, and here they are now!

Very easily done, with the fabric that once belonged to dancers in our wedding day, I just created a folded edge so I could put a string made of rubber and metal (esticador) and attached it to the edges of the windows with a small metal attachment (camarão).

With this full moon, no light is entering in the bedroom. Now the windows are complete!

Viva a Primavera e as chuvas mil de Abril.

Plants

 Ah, the beauty of plants multiplying!

These beauties are spreading more and more.

Beautiful plants and beautiful house with them here. 


Having all these plants in the house brings so much to it and to us.

It’s having nature inside that supports the balance of well being.

It’s a joy to take care of them and to be taken care by them.

David’s birthday

 For David’s birthday and and to respond to his coffee passion, I decided to stitch a coffee cup with a Portuguese popular word. You just ask for a cafézinho when in a coffee shop!

It’s another add in the kitchen area, but still not in the final place!

I loved making this surprise for him.

Plants growing

 It always amazes me when I look to the pots and suddenly there is a new something. I call them babies, as there are sprouts coming when one least expects it!

It’s quite amazing and showing me that life keeps moving, that when one cares for the plants they respond back.

I can’t wait to have cuttings from these plants so I can multiple them and have more pots!

Addicted? No, just fascinated by nature!

Plants outside

 So happy that we can have plants inside and outside of the house!

This one is “arruda” and it’s the perfect one to have at the entrance!

Happy Spring!
