Chinoiserie

How long would it take for me to get sick of this?Or this?


Ok ,normally i don't take too many risks concerning my walls but lately I've been attracted to this style. Maybe the call to nature ,to dreaming ................

Which leads me to a couple of "finds" last week!

I'm not too sure of this one but somehow I like it! It reminds me of the Cuckato in Australia. I think I'm trying to get some sunshine in here.

For now it's sitting on my sons' piano. He hasn't complained yet................ and he still plays wonderfully.

Having a large family makes me appreciate a more simple decoration, not too many colours ; they bring in the colours!





Images from elle decor and other unknown sources - sorry.

Cuckoo

Over the past couple of years I've grown to love the Cuckoo clock.


 I like the modern take on a traditional object. that's why in my house I have a white plastic one.


                                                                  A black plastic one!


                                                           And  NOW  a  real one!
I found this in a flea market for 10 euros and I quickly snapped it up for my sister who was looking for a "real" one. It does work ,the cuckoo really comes out of his little door every half and whole hour ! It's an authentic,made in Germany, all it needs is a little TLC and some patience to get all the mecanic synchronised!!
