ENJOYING THE WEEKEND// lifestyle decor

LAZY SUNDAY MORNINGS

Yes that says it all.... today is one of those days! No energy or feeling of - Lets go somewhere.
Do you have days like that?   Today is more a day i rather stay home, and maybe bake or plant some
flowers.

Well my luck with flowers or plants are not great, its seems like not much will grow. The problem is we  have a north exposure and limited sunshine.  I have tried lavender, hydrangeas, rose plant, irises and other bulbs  but with some or very little success.   And the annoying thing is I love flowers and gardens.   That being said ,  we have a cedar tree in a pot and it has survived and grown tall. So 1 out of 10 is not bad. 

So finally i thought i will check out faux  plants to get some greenery. A faux lavender or hydrangea
Plus when we go on holidays won't need someone to water the plants.  I figure that is a good idea .


So lets get started and make it green starting with a few pots to hold the plants.


Hanging or freestanding
both are nice  to add some interest and shapes in the space, whether a patio, balcony or terrace.



SOME GREAT FAUXS

the look of  a french garden with a lovely lavender plant
look amazing , this adds some height and does look real too.






ROSES ANYONE?

roses , hydrangeas or peonies
take you pick, something with more
stems and multiple flowers
will look more real.







NOT ONLY FLOWERS but some greenery adds to space and make it look more like
a real garden.







GLOVES  are always needed, even for looking after faux plants or if you have live ones.








So how does your garden grow, do you have a garden or small space for plants you love?

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

Sunny Days Eyewear//fashion , designer eyewear

T HE RIGHT ONEs  Summer and the sun is something we all look forward to. Getting outside enjoying the sunshine but most important is to to protect your eyes!  I have been looking for a new pair of sunglasses.  Thinking I might get a pair of design ones, Chanel , Gucci ??  Well more importantly is to get a pair with a higher UV number .  Apparently there is no difference from a designer pair or a pair from any shop .  Other than the price.style or quality.  Looking at and trying sunglasses checking fit is important .  The style look and what suits you are all things to consider .  The UV protection is what really matters  also something I didn’t know was the side part of thin matters also. Why?  If to thin UV rays can enter and effect your eyes. So the sides of sun glasse is something else to  consider .  Enjoy the sunshine ☀️
