A NEW WEEK at HOME /// lifestyle, decor , diy

HI EVERYONE

How was your first week of 2021? I have to say the week started slowly after the holidays. We are still in lockdown , so we are limited to staying home , only trips to shop essentials- so there really isn't much new.

Like most of us during lockdown we have a certain daily routine. I started to remove some of the christmas things, but left a few things out like the lite houses,wintery snow globes, and my favourite string of lights that look like candles.

Keeping the wintery feel in the room with candles and some greenery

DIY PROJECT

I love the look when the tree branches are covered in frost, the silvery white that glistens with the sunshine looks so beautiful.

Tried my hand at making the frosted branches , these things are so lovely and easy to do.

A NEW GADGET

This was something my sis has and she really liked using it for making chickens wings etc.

So surprise, we got one as a gift an Air fryer. I have to figure out how to use it, so i can't wait to make those tasty BBQ chicken wings a real treat.

TIPS how to use.

Hope your week will be filled with things you enjoy and have fun everyone!

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person. These computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of? Okay maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars gorgeous , flawless and h

CAMOUFLAGE STYLES// Fashion, designer

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top that I wear as a coverup) This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for summer.
