Flying high

Lately I'm seeing birds in many design magazines and home decor shops. They keep popping up on wallpaper, pillows, bedding, pottery, art work and in cages.  It seems the sky's the limit!  Here are some of my favourite ways to integrate a theme into your home. It doesn't have to be birds, it could be butterflies, fish etc.

Wallpaper

 I love the design possibilities of wallpaper, but I can also remember all those hours of scraping it off walls.  My preference now  is to use wallpaper on smaller spaces or as an accent.  The colours in this pattern work perfectly with other colours in the room. In a small space which isn't lived in daily you can be a little more whimsical or adventurous.

This vibrant yellow is hard to ignore and it is used sparingly.  Framing sections is a perfect solution for a shot of pattern and colour.  Look closely and you will see tiny birds.  The graphic pillow repeats the motif in a much bolder way.

 And the bird theme is carried through this nursery even to the ceiling.

 These white birds  are subtle and fresh even with the addition of pattern on another wall. I think white drawings are so minimal  because they just hint at their presence.   


Look up!  Look waaaay up! What a lovely finishing touch in a nursery!

  You have to love these graphic birdcages and birds on the wall, but don't miss the pillows!




And here they  are again in  graphic black providing a  backdrop for this dark sofa.  I like how the curved lines of the sofa interact with the curves of the cages. And following up with the real thing......

Birdcages

Using cages is a way to reference our fine feathered friends without having them actually  appear.  The absence of presence so to speak. I love the weathered driftwood with the straight lines of the cages.  


 You can also attach birdcages to your wall for a very three dimensional look which leads me to other forms of 3 D accessories....

 or hanging in pristine whiteness to delight a new baby, birds take many forms in homes.


Eames House Bird by Vitra modern artwork

 The iconic Eames bird can be found in many styled homes. Charles and Ray Eames had the original carved bird and constantly rearranged  it in various vignettes around their home and when styling photos. Because of the colour and simple lines the bird was sought by Eames fans.   Using 3 D scans of the original bird Vitra is now creating reproductions of it.

Silhouettes of birds and branches provide a very eye catching headboard design.

 Don't forget you don't have to hang artwork.  It can be beautifully displayed as part of a vignette.



Painted Furniture

Birds appear to be a favourite motif on painted furniture.  This striking combination begs your attention.  It would make a fantastic art piece at the end of a hallway.


  

 What a difference from the dresser above.  This one is all calmness and delicacy. 

 Lighting

 I could keep going but this post is already too long!

kenapa nak curang..

ikatan pernikahan sangat suci..
ianya tak sepatutnya dicemari perkara yang boleh melaknadkan kita..
sebagai isteri, jujurlah..
setialah..
ingatlah syurga kita ialah suami..

tak perlulah curang..
saya rasa sangat keji bila melihat wanita yang bergelar isteri berlaku curang!
jijik!!

kenapa perlu bernikah jika hati milik orang lain?

maaflah jika saya terlebih,
tetapi percayalah, saya merasa keji bila melihat semua itu..

Beri laluan kepada yg lebih laju

Kalau bawak keta ke moto pelan tu duk la tepi, bg laluan kat yg lebih laju. X kira la moto ke keta ke lori ke bas ker. Ni dah la bawak pelan, habis semua kat belakang duk ikut, berderet2 nk potong x leh. Makan angin ker? Boleh eksiden kalau duk ikut deret2 ni. Dah la bawak pelan, muka selamba jer. Tak pikir pasal pengguna lain langsung. Kalau dah x leh bawak laju, pasal pa duk tengah2.

Pagi2 dah membebel. Time nak mai kerja ja mesti ada masalah ni. Nanti balik keja sekali lagi nak menghadap benda ni. Banyak sgt ke masalah depa sampai x pikir pasal org lain langsung. Berkhayal atas jalan. Ada yg bawa sat kiri sat kanan, kalau nak belok bagi la signal. X belok2 pun.


ohtidak.com
Kena la pikir. Jalan kecik kenderaan byk. Org nak pi keja. Kalau eksiden sapa yg susah? Kalau bawak 60km/j pun ok dah jalan biasa ni. Highway x leh la, kena dok line kiri je la. Kalau nak potong kena la laju, baru leh potong. Ni x sampai berembar ngan keta yg nak dipotong, bila nak lepas. Nak potong pun kena la tgk tempat. Selamat ke tak. Bagi signal ke tak?

Masa ambik lesen dulu semua ikut. Bagi signal awal bila nak belok, lampu merah berenti, bawa 50km/j je. Bila dah dapt lesen, ikut suka lak. Sia2 jer pi ambik lesen. Kena ubah cara penilaian ambik lesen ni. Bukan masa test jer. Biar sampai  kalau nampak buat salah atas jalan, potong markah. Kena hadir ceramah semula. Biar la berapa lama dah ada lesen pun. Kalau yg eksiden, x pakai helmet, langgar lampu isyarat, x bagi signal pun kena hadir ceramah, termasuk aku. Baru padan muka. Kalau macam ni x yah renew lesen dah. Setahun ntah berapa kali kena pi ceramah semula. Bayar tang tu je pun dah lebih dari renew. X pun masa renew, cek dulu kesalahan yg dikesan dilakukan. Setiap kesalahan kena denda, RM5 pun cukup dah. Mampus nak bayar.
sabar
