Deco-paper-pretty!

As promised, here is a list of the deco/paper goods/pretty things blogs I like to have a look at. If I were rich, I would spend tons of money ordering from here and there, but as my financial situation is not the one of a millionaire, I simply browse around, wishing, hoping.

Do you know of any blogs that you think I might like?

Christmas lights- Japanese style

I love Christmas lights garlands. I use them year-round, not just for the holiday season, as I find they give a really nice romantic glow when they are the only light lit in the room. But recently I came across this post (http://leneken3000.wordpress.com/2008/10/01/43/) and decided to give it a try. The result is beautiful! The light shines through the paper and tames the intensity of the light. Plus, it makes for a really nice deco idea. You should give it a try!

Practical- and good looking- idea

I had this when I was living in Berlin. My room, in the flat I was sharing with three other people, was nice, but a little bare. One day, I had the brilliant idea to hammer two nails in the walls, running the length of the wall, and to attach a string to them, on which I would hang all the wonderful cards and other knick-knacks I picked up around the city. It gave my room a wonderful look, and reminded me everyday of the things I liked.
Yesterday, I decided to do the same here, in my little buro, and it took no time at all for the strings to be filled with things!
It looks great!
