We bought two more bookcases to accommodate all the books we have. And while filling the shelves with them, I also filled three bags of books to go to the charity shops.
I got this wonderful yellow painting from my very good friend and an amazing artist, Lorna Wilson. See her other paintings here.
I have chosen blue for this corner of the room because of Feng Shui. It represents the element of water. Instead of hanging the curtains in the windows, I used self-adhesive film to block the view from the street and let the light in.
On the shelf you can see the sculpture by my aunt, Jadwiga Janus. She began her art career in the sixties and is a well known artist in Poland. I love her work.
This is just the beginning. I hope our home will evolve with time and acquire it's own character naturally.
