Craft Inspired Shabby Chic Living

I was completely delighted to find out the weblog of fabulous photographer and stylist Athena, who hails all the way from Poland! Athena is an incredibly talented lady with a excellent eye for styling! I adore this recent shoot she produced with the vintage sewing machine. The craft inspired photographs are just gorgeous.

And these vintage wooden spools with torn fabric ribbons and vintage crochet, lace ribbon,  look extremely effective on the painted wooden backdrop. I still have to generate the ‘DIY wooden backdrop’ tutorial that I saved last summer with all the really very best intentions! I guarantee! I bet Athena’s craft supplies box is totally fabulous!

This is component of the old Tilda “Sewing Bird” collection. I adore these reduce outs! They perform completely with the rest of Athena’s craft style photos.

I totally adore the pastel colours in this image! Utilizing the fabric tape and the threads collectively is a fantastic idea as they marry completely below a ‘craft’ theme. You can find my favourite washi tapes on my etsy pages.

I completely adore crochet hearts, they appear excellent as present tags, hanging decorations, or string lots with each other to generate an adorable garland! They can be excellent for any time of the year based on the colours of your lovely hearts. I am also rather enamoured with that “Homemade” mounted, rubber stamp. It appears absolutely marvellous! You could use that to stamp on anything fabric, ribbons, tags, attach it to handmade quilts by employing it to stamp on some woven/twill ribbon. Lots of craft concepts!

I saw this image and was blown away if I’m truthful. I love meals photography and I have nothing at all but admiration for individuals who can style food photography set ups so nicely! I can’t do it for tuppence. At all. I also enjoy figs. ^_^

All of these flowers are just lovely! As mentioned not too long ago, I’m a enormous fan of hydrangeas but the mixture of the different flowers and colours appears great in this photo.

I have a sneaking suspicion that these glass storage boxes are by Lisbeth Dahl! I’ve always wanted these beautiful boxes but I’ve in no way had any notion of what I could retailer in them that would be lovely enough. Athena has had a fantastic idea with spools, ribbons and sea shells!

Are these muscari? I enjoy the massive pot that these are planted in! I really am receiving very excited about spring. Do muscari smell very strong? I have rather sensitive smell and as stunning as Hyacinths are, they’re rather potent and almost make me cross eyed when I stroll in the room so I’m trying to discover some beautiful, option spring blooms to fill my house with this season!

I had to contain the patchwork quilt! I have a feeling that Athena is rather like me, who loves to craft and has attempted them all ^_^ Though Athena is a lot much more talented in the styling division.

I attempted my really initial pomegranate 2 years ago and it was the one and only time! hah! They have been a lil bitter for my face! I am crazy about the shape, the texture and the colour and they’re FABULOUS to draw! I definitely really like them, if only they weren’t so tart. I am crazy about the white ceramic spoon. Doesn’t it look gorgeous?!

Athena’s residence is absolutely spectacular and shabby chic in style. These paper backed books are my favourite aspect of the residence as it ties every thing in beautifully!

This lamp is just gorgeous! Where would I uncover one like this?! Go to the ever so talented Athena more than at her weblog Drewniana Szpulka (Wooden Spool) a fantastic name for a weblog!
