Welcome November!

This is absolutely cute and beautiful, isn´t it?
A very good friend of mine made it ( patiently) by herself to my little baby who is a BOY!!! By the time she was making it, she didn´t know so she chose pretty colors that could be used by a girl or a boy. And it turned out so beautiful! Thank you , CELIA!

A closer detail of the patchwork baby bed cover... It´s a lovely blue star, isnt´it?

And... our home was decorated by pumpkins and orange colors here and there for the Halloween

We love Halloween parties but unfortunately we do not celebrate that much in our country... But the spirit of this season is everywhere in our home!!!


I hope you had a great Halloween celebration and I wish you a week full of joy and inspiration! thank you for stopping by!!!

handmade bunting

It´s World Cup season and to celebrate this exciting moment I made this green + yellow + blue ( Brazilian flag ) to decorate our living room and for those who want to make one of this, take a look at this tutorial , it´s written in Portuguese but it´s quite easy because there are great photos to follow. Try it, enjoy it!!!


Before hanging it inside our house I took this picture outside, much better with the natural light!

Well, I guess we are all set to watch the next match!

Dad´s corner

These days I´ve been at my dad´s office at his house and I´ve found some treasures that he left here before going to Japan where he lives by this time.

He has this collection of train models ...


This is a set of tiny wooden toys : The musician of Bremen


A very old match box that my grandpa gave me and I kept for years, then one day I had this idea of framing it and gave to my dad as a birthday gift.



My father is a very organized person and since I know him he is an antique lover and we used to go to flea markets and antique shops when I was very little.
He loves coffee grinders, samurai sword´s acessories , old cameras, photographs and trains.
This is my father´s family symbol , I guess every Japanese family has one and I love this beautiful flower and I have a sticker that we made on the computer and it´s on my car window. Somehow it makes me feel protected and always reminds me that I´m part of this family.

Last week my Dad celebrated his 82nd birthday and I wish him the most blessed celebration and I also hope that he may live his new life in Japan with joy and happiness!!!


And wishing you some moments of reflection to feel and see the beautiful things that this life offers to all of us.

With much love,

After school


Children love ART!!! And she had lots of fun making these masks, painting them and making Easter chocolate eggs at the English School. It began on Tuesday, they all prepared and made the chocolate decoration and today they wrapped and finished the carrot to hold the eggs.

Tomorrow we will eat codfish, I love the one my mom cooks, since I was a kid, the same taste, very salty but lots of potatoes and carrots in a soup!

Wishing you all a fantastic Easter celebration! And lots of chocolates to eat, oh My! what will it happen to my jeans????
