New favorite magazine

ελληνικό κείμενο

It 's November already, I wish everybody a happy, creative month!

Today I want to share with you something that will make spend a little more time in front of your screen: my new discovery which I already added to my list of favorite online deco magazines. Its first issue was published in summer 2011, so probably some of you know about it already. House of Fifty is not 100% about home decor, it's a lifestyle magazine that seeks inspiration in the everyday life (which I like as a thought) and I believe you will find plenty of interesting things within its pages.

 I hope you like it too! 

My favorite online interior design magazines

ελληνικό κείμενο 

Back in the not so far days without internet I anticipated impatiently the moment to buy my favorite monthly interior design  magazines. It was something that could make my whole weekend. I didn't have much to spend but I usually bought 3 to 4 magazines each month which I read again and again. I still read some of them since I keep many old issues on my shelves. The time has passed and the internet brought tons of house tours, how tos, deco tips and inspiration in our screens with just one click and most of all for free. At the same time things in Greece have changed so dramatically that buying magazines is considered now a small luxury for most people, for me too. So, thank God for the internet! And although the feeling of a real printed paper magazine in my hands, the smell of the ink and the sound of the turning pages is unsurpassed for me, despite the fact that I am a computer addicted person, I can but really enjoy the monthly releases of online interior design magazines. So here is a small list of my favorite online interior design magazines.

My favorite crafting magazine

My favorite crafting magazine is french Marie - Claire Idees. And I assure you, Marie - Claire has the best ideas when it comes to crafting. Those of you who are into crafting probably are already aware of the existence of this magazine. The rest should go and buy it immediately. It is quarterly, today I bought the spring issue. The day Marie - Claire Idees comes out, is always a good day. I haven't opened yet this issue, no no, I am going to restrain myself until I find some quite moment when the kids are asleep, to enjoy it as it deserves. You will find lots of inspiration in it with the most wonderful projects in many crafting categories, mainly decorative objects, but also knitting, sewing, furniture makeover, cooking, art de la table, jewerly and accessories making. Most of have a sweet, romantic, nostalgic style, inspired by old times, but under a fresh point of view. Even if you don't speak french, the pictures will keep you totally satisfied. There is also a Marie - Claire Idees blog. Every October the magazine organizes Le Salon Marie - Claire Idees in Paris, a crafting related exhibition, which I so want to visit some time. The pictures are from older issues of the magazine.
