Casa Cor Trio 2009
This is just a sneak peak at Casa Cor Trio 09 where my dear friends from In House Design are participating. I loved everything I saw in their section. The fabrics, the colors, the furniture and even the accessories are simply gorgeous. They found an excellent place (sorry not to remember the name of the store) to buy antiques here in Sao Paulo.
If you happen to be around, you got to go check them. :-)
Tistu Studio
What a lovely work this candy studio has been doing!
I simply love these Christmas balls pictured bellow. Their work is so neat and the presentation fascinates anyone. Isn't it a great Christmas gift to a friend? I don't have enough information about the studio but I just know that they are from Sao Paulo, Brazil and their email in case you're interested, is: tistustudio@gmail.com
Tableware
Who doesn't like a beautiful tableware to go with a dinner, lunch or even a brunch with friends?
Here it is a bunch of options that can easily impress anyone.
Reupholstery
Before
After
Here is an old chair that my husband and I found on Craigslist a couple months ago. We got it for a complete make over. The wood was in a natural color, the fabric was very worn out and the foam and batting needed to be completely replaced. I usually would send it to an upholstery shop but this time we decided to do the work by ourselves. My husband found some tutorials online and we found a way to have fun with that over the weekend. The frame got a paint job in matte black and a new fabric by Sandra Romanoff (me!). We've started this job a few weeks before moving back to Brazil, so the chair is not finished yet but soon will be.
Getting back in track
It's been a week since we arrived in Sao Paulo and we're ready to start a new life here.
We have a lot of things to do and we are very excited to make things happen. It wasn't easy at all to leave our friends in San Francisco, but it's an excellent excuse to come back to pay visits anytime we want!
Yesterday was a rainy day in Sao Paulo and I stayed all day long in front of my computer trying to get things done from my to do list.
I've been planning my new apartment already even without having time to start to shop around yet, so it was a long day and fortunately I had time to browse a little bit to find some interesting poufs/ottomans that caught my eyes. The poufs Missoni are my favorites. I wish I could get one in my new place. :-)
