Kitchen

And finally let me show you our kitchen.

Warm tea anyone?

Stools :)

Stools and table

We are working on our new kitchen table and stools for the living room. The carpenter did a really nice job. We distressed the table and painted it over to give it an "aged" look. We will paint the stools too and upholster them after we find the right fabric...

View from my window

Couple of shots I took today from my window. The wind cleared the air and everything is colorful again. Enjoy the view!

Pendant Lights

Today I installed two new pendant lights in the hallway. As soon as I saw them on Ebay, I knew I have to have them! The steel shade is black on the outside and has a white powder-coating on the inside. Chain is made of wrought iron. Simple and very retro. Perfect. Something similar can still be found here and here.

Our new living room

Finally! Hope you like it...

New book

Today I received a beautiful inspirational book as a gift. Thanks dear! :) It is called "Italian Country Living" by Caroline Clifton-Mogg. Book is full of beautiful photographs by Chris Tubbs.
Take a peek...

Bakar

The town consists of the wonderful old town, which rises steeply along the slopes beside a Frankopan castle (16th century), and of a more modern part of the town situated along the coast. Bakar was once an important trade port, and a fishing, winegrowing, shipbuilding and maritime centre. A maritime school was opened there long ago in 1849, graduating many sailors. In the last 15 years, Bakar has resumed steps towards developing tourism to the high standards of that in the surrounding area. In its more recent past, it was a centre for tuna fishing in the northern Adriatic and the town receives many foreign visitors.
