In a week or so, I’ll officially have the keys of my new house. I’ll probably be blogging about the evolution of the interior, as we’ve got much to do in there to make it alovely place. I definitely can’t wait! :D Until then, I’ll be dying for home inspiration.

American Vintage Home has a fantastic FlickR selection of home and decoration pictures for those addicted to vintage furniture porn. Lots of inspiration and ideas for a retro styled home (and lots of unbelievable floral prints that even your grandma wouldn’t try).

Weekly resolutions.

Posted November 16th, 2008 in Architecture & Home, Blog, Everyday life by Zélia

This week, on Ilovegraphics.

 

 

This week will be the fourth week for Ilovegraphics. Which means I’ll be celebrating my first month as an amateur blog writer — yay for my newbie glory!
It also means that my vacation are already done – yay for going back to work! (sardonic tone here.)

So, for the weekly resolutions round-up, what am I going to do to celebrate my soon-to-be fame and conquest of the world?

• Thanks my readers.
Already a hundred suscribers to the RSS feed… This is much more than I expected!
Ilovegraphics is a newborn blog, made to share thoughts about what I love in life (mainly graphic design, that is) : feel free to share your own tremendous hobbys. The more fools, the more laugh. And thanks! 

• Upload some more stuff in my portfolio.
All of this is a bit dusty, it really needs some fresh stuff. 

• Not spending all my free-time doing nothing.
These vacations reminded me how much I like to do stuff during my free-time. I should try it again. Maybe. 

• Start anew. 
Have you ever felt that your life is at a turning point? That something exciting is going to happen?  
That’s weird ( and often disappointing on top of that.) 

• Enjoy my weekly pleasures more than ever.
Reading a lot of books, winter soups, buy a cake, eat mushrooms, drawing, riding my bike in the cold, play videogames and doing some letterpress.
I am so oldschool it hurts. But I’m never bored. Ah!  

That’s to say, stop doing nothing, as always. Which is mostly the point of taking resolutions. 
The picture is of my dining table ( and my grandma’s traditionnal french “buffet”). I’ve bought 3 italian vintage chairs from a thrift shop for 40€, and I just wanted to show off. For those who love vintage furniture porn, one of the incriminated chair after the break.

Have a terrific week, and remember that girls just wanna have fun^^.
