tom odell :: another love

Hello again, friends!
As it is usual on a Friday afternoon, and to say the best of goodbyes to the week that has just gone, I like to leave you with some of my music/video finds of the week.

Today is Tom Odell...and I warn you, this is not just a great tune but it really builds up {in all the sense of the expression!}

I hope you like it!
{video below}

Have a great weekend!

Hello friends, how are you today?

Here are my summery navy pins from this week.
I hope you are inspired by them...and pop to the beach, why not?!

See these and many more of my inspirational boards and finds on Pinterest {here}.

Good morning, my lovely friends, how was your weekend?
Is it very warm there as it is here? Yes, I am longing for lazy days by the beach {one of my favourite things to do on Earth}!

I hope you enjoy today's inspirational photo and colour palette - it sets you in the right mood for a great new week, I hope!

summer water

Hi friends, how's your weekend going?

I haven't posted a recipe for a while, as it would normally be on a Saturday afternoon {like this one, today!}, but this isn't really a recipe - it's just a suggestion!

A very summery infused water, with succulent strawberries and fresh mint. Add some ice cubes for further freshness and...voila', you'll have something like this!

 

Have a great weekend!

To finish off this Friday and to take us smoothly into a relaxing weekend, here is Rhye with 'Open'...with a beautiful video too!

I hope you enjoy it!

Have a great weekend!

d.i.y. handprinted napkins

Hello my good friends, and Happy Friday!

This morning I have the most amazing d.i.y. for you:: home printed napkins by mamas kram.

I just love, love, love these - they are easy to make but, most of all, the whole look is just up my street {wouldn't they look good in my kitchen? I think the answer is YES!!}

 

 

The secret is really simple: fabric paint. Then the rest is left to the imagination.

Mamas Kram used adhesive tape for the striped and squares design, a cork for the dotted design, and a homemade foam stamp for the chevron and triangles.

It looks great, doens't it?!

Check the whole tutorial and plenty more photos from the Mamas Kram blog, who had this amazing idea {and while you're there, leave a lovely comment and tell them pepper+buttons sent you!}
