neon bedroom

Everyone knows that every decór needs a little color. Now how about bringing a bit of neon into your life? Here’s a few lovely rooms, all with pretty neon elements:

A very cute bedroom, with a color combination that I never imagined it would work: pink and yellow. The more neon the better. And how about the amazing dream neon light in the wall? Love it!

The perfect example of how something very simple can change an entire room completely. I really like the touch of neon yellow in the bed and I guess this could make a super easy DIY, don’t you think?

If you don’t wanna make a big and definitive change, you can invest in bedding, pillows and even artwork with neon elements. These are from Castle (a lovely brand that has appeared on the blog before) and are perfect, especially the polka dot pillowcase. So cute!

Another cool and easy idea: neon washi tape frames! Isn’t beautiful? And the best part is that we can experiment with various colors and shapes, without worrying about the walls! I really want to try it in my office! \o/

Did you like the inspirations?
Does anyone already has neon elements at home?

The last three… movies

Os três últimos filmes

Deadfall (dir. Stefan Ruzowitzky, 2012)

The movie is basically about two brothers on the run after a casino heist. It gets more interesting when you realize that the focus of the movie is not the theft or the suspense, but the characters’ extremely complicated family relationships. Watch the trailer.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi (dir. David Gelb, 2011)

Here’s the plan: order that awesome Japanese food delivery and watch this amazing documentary about sushi master, and Japan’s national treasure, Jiro Ono. Of course, after seeing his perfect creations you will get very angry with that sushi-crap you just ate and start quoting airline tickets to Tokyo. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Watch the trailer.

His Girl Friday (dir. Howard Hawks, 1940)

Someone recommended me this one for being an old movie (I like old movies) and because it has a journalistic theme (and I’m a journalist), but not even Cary Grant was able to save it. And I’m not talking about the stereotypical view of the journalist, I’m talking about the amount of times that ALL characters spoke on the phone. Sometimes on two phones at the same time! I know that the phone was a new and very popular thing in the 40s, but please, a little less guys… Watch the trailer.

gift wrap - classic cocktails

Classic Cocktails gift wrap, by Kate Broughton

Who hasn’t thought of at least 5 friends who would love this gift paper full of classic drinks? Even better if the gift is drink-related (glasses, coasters, a cocktail book…).

 gift wrap - Mister and Misses fox

The boys get the Mister Fox gift wrap and the girls get the Misses Fox. Or maybe the other way around. Who says there are rules in the wrapping paper world? Let’s be adventurous!
