It’s never too early to think about Christmas, especially these days. Ok , Halloween is coming with provoking us with its irreverence, scaring us and making us smile, but Christmas has its own charm. Here are some issues from which we can take inspiration to plan the decorations of 2013!

Geometries are still strong this year, light gray tones with bits of pink. Natural materials and stars are a must-have too… get inspiration for decorating your home for the holidays.

Do you like a more classic style? Scandinavian style is timeless, made of greek decorations and warm fabrics, reds and whites invading the house while the fire crackles in the fireplace.

And speaking of sweetness, some ideas to impress your guests can be found in “Sweet”.

White, gray, pink, copper… as we have seen during all months of the year these are the predominant colors in modern furnishing. From the House Doctor catalog some delicious little things that I’d gladly add to my wishlist!

I’ve been shopping at Tiger in Meravigli 1, in Milan and of course I couldn’t avoid doing a rich booty of cute materials. This house-box is now a washitape container, but I also loved the decorating paper that I used as a background, for the flower origami and to build the 3D paper ball. What do you think? I’m completely caught!

If you want to come and see me, you know where I live

A few days ago on my Instagram profile (if you still do not follow me here is the link http://instagram.com/girotundo/#) I posted a picture titled “I got home”: it has red roof tiles, walls in pink and white stripes , a little flower on the window and a bird on the door.

Let’s smile all together, will you? I’ll do!

Today I’ll show you some shots directly from my desk … I made this composition some time ago, I’d say it dates back to June, when I worked on the patterns for my new blog (by the way, have you ever noticed that you can customize my blog appearance by choosing the colors you prefer?), and so playing and experimenting I began to build these big letters with a “soft” shape… a “roundy” shape.

Do you like it? Would you like to replicate it? Pull a thread from one side of the wall behind your desk and equip yourself with small spring clamps. I I’ve decorated my letters with washi tape  so that I was able to mix different patterns… that in itself makes us smile!

I printed and cut out the letters, then I hung them completing the overall look with rounds of rosettes made ​​with the cups for sweets (those striped blue/white and purple/white are IKEA) and two yellow origami in the shapes of a butterfly and a bow.
Do you like it? And you, what would you write on your decoration?
