It’s warm (hot most of the times), always sunny and totally Summer now! And Summer to me means bright colours, fresh fruits, travel and vacation… but also getting creative. And if you’re enjoying a sweet Summer vacation, then lucky you! As for me, this year I’ll stick to the creativity point 😉 And while I […]
I’m currently in the process of creating a studio for myself from scratch (exciting!) after moving in out new flat. And while it’s so great to see a space slowly coming together, I don’t love things to be too flat or lacking in personality! This is why I’m having fun finding new creative ways to […]
Only 2 days to go, and hopefully we should be all sorted with our Christmas shopping by now. Now it’s time to wear our Santa helpers outfits, wrap gifts and bake Christmas Eve biscuits while listening to the old Christmas classics! I love taking care of my gift wrapping and coming up with new ideas […]
-4 days until Christmas and it’s time for gift wrapping! Probably my very favourite activity of the festive season only second to biscuits baking! I love taking care of my gift wrapping, making sure everything is perfect even on the outsite and the presents are a real pleasure to look at. I see it as […]
On this first day of Advent, who’s officially excited for Christmas season? This time of the year is just my favourite, and so I couldn’t resist the idea of putting together another of my seasonal hand-illustrated free wallpapers. This time it’s not dedicated to a season just in general, but I wanted to create one […]

Not long ago I wrote about some of my favourite European Etsy shops, but the truth is there are so many more small businesses and creatives worth to support.

Hey there! Anyone else believes time is flying by a bit too quickly this year? It seems like yesterday that I started this seasonal series with my first Spring wallpaper… and tomorrow will be Fall already! I’m excited though, I love everything about Fall… I find orange leaves everywhere so very poetic, I love cosy […]
This blog may contain affiliate links. Oh I love pressed flowers! There’s something about them so charming and elegant. And you might remember me experimenting with pressed flower to create a unique DIY phone case (that was almost one year ago, wow!). Well, I still love the idea of playing around with pressed flowers in DIY […]
This blog may contain affiliate links. Let’s be honest: I’m just a tiny bit partial to cute-everything when it comes to my workspace area! I love adding in new bits and bobs of doubt utility but undoubtedly pretty and I can’t enter an homeware or stationery shop without getting out with a new gem to […]
Summer is now officially here, and don’t know about where you live, but here in Italy we’re experiencing it at its fullest with a mixture of extreme temperatures and semi-tropical storms. Not sure what’s going on, but it’s making me SO looking forward to a vacation both ways. And if, like me, your vacation is […]
It’s not a secret I love fabrics and I’ve always had this passion for any piece of tissue with customized prints. I’ve been meaning to test out this lemon-stamp technique for a while, but wasn’t sure of the technical details to make paint actually stay on my fabric without turning into a big yellow mess […]
In the last few years my skin has become super sensitive to all sorts of chemical products. In the process of removing chemicals from my daily routine, starting from beauty and going straight to food, I discovered also clothes and fabrics can generate sensitivity in my skin, especially when washed with harsh soaps and fabric […]
Wire signs are being very popular lately, Instagram and Pinterest are so overpopulated by them and they do indeed look very pretty. Especially if they display words or concepts that are close to our hearts and mean something to us. I wanted to give this little DIY project a go for a while, making my […]
This blog and others at Pop Shop America may contain affiliate links. I don’t know if it’s just me and my love for clay-everything, but I’ve been spotting a lot of beautiful handmade jewelry plates online recently, and, let me admit this, I’d buy them all if it was legit..! It’s only recently that it […]
I’m sure you’ll have seen grid mood boards already all over Pinterest! I definitely have and have become kind of obsessed with how they look, that I ended up wanting to make my own for my workspace. And being a designer and creative, I always print and sketch so much! I love gathering pretty postcards, […]
With Spring being right behind the corner (-2 days, who else is excited?!), I’m sure I’m not the only one being so done with Winter and sparkling with enthusiasm each time I spot a flowering tree! Spring is my favourite season, with the weather starting to be warmer, the flowers blooming everywhere, the world becoming […]
Ever since my obsession for knitting started back in Autumn, I began collecting more and more yarns until it became clear I wouldn’t have been able to knit that much during only one Winter! I also discovered the super fun art of making pom poms and, if only you could see my knitting storage basket, you’d say […]
Whether you’re a blogger, a new photographer or just someone who enjoys curating a pretty Instagram feed, I’m sure you’ve wondered at least once in your life how is it that everyone has the prettiest surfaces for photos all the time!
