diy chevron corkboard and Vrsi Mulo

Hello!

Hope all is well! Last night I finally started on my second corkboard which goes in my pantry (my first chevron corkboard is in the basement where I work)...I pretty much eye balled it...the strips of masking tape were approx. 15 cm long....like I said before I hate measuring! :)

This time I only did one coat of white paint.

Sorry about the photo's of my pantry...the lighting isn't good...only got one light in there.

Looks so pretty...didn't want to put anything on it! :)

So happy to read the comments on my Salty giveaway post....it's awesome to read how some of you plan to come to Croatia...well stick around because it's Croatia month here on the blog! LOL I took so many pictures and I'm so excited to share them with you!

So last week we stayed with my Aunt in her beautiful house in Vrsi Mulo...here are a few pictures around her home (will share more of her house tomorrow)...

Her house is the third house up from the beach...HELLO!!!!!!! This is a few from the first floor balcony.

Her olive trees! We are an olive loving family...olives, olive oil...yum!!

Mia! :) She cried when we left for home...that's how much we love it there! :)

It's a tree/plant lovers dream in her yard! :)

Hello!

Hope all is well.....I'm super excited because the sun finally is out!! Our weather lately sucked...cool and rainy...where's summer???!

Anyways...I spotted this diy on Pinterest and loved the idea....I had bought this little corkboard for my office down in the basement perfect for this project....for those who know me you know I HATE measuring....I eyeball everything....so I took some masking tape and just eyeballed it...

I did two coats of paint (although I think when I do my corkboard in my pantry I'm only going to do one coat...it's a bit more sheer but I think I like that better...)

Here's a peek....I'm going to paint the frame a Tiffany blue-ish colour and will post pictures once it's done and hanging on the wall...but I have to say I love the way it turned out...I was a little worried because I didn't do any measuring....

 I'm loving Make Up Factory's Summer Flowers nail polish collection....this brand works great on my nails (way better than Essie...I don't know what it is about Essie nail polishes but they chip the same day I painted my nails!!)....I bought Marigold and Mint Leaf...by far the best mint colour I have ever tried.

Looks more yellow in the photo (more orange-y in real life)...love it...perfect pop of colour for summer! :)

Finally finished the pantry!!!! Now to clean the rest of the house (which I have neglected!!)...

Have a great weekend!

Happy first of June! :)

I have been wanting to organize my pantry for the longest time so when my husband came home with paint I was so excited!!!!

Two days later and the excitement is gone!! LOL It's never ending!!!! I just want to give up!! While I'm cleaning and scrubbing I'm thinking of how I will organize it....where should I put what....what goes together...cans, pasta, cereal....

My husband and I jumped over to Bauhaus to grab a light for the pantry...nothing special....I wanted to check out their storage 'stuff'....didn't buy any baskets or containers just yet...I want to put all the stuff back in and see what storage containers I need (the size etc) but I did buy these goodies!! Elho spray bottle and watering can....there where some other Elho goodies that caught my eye. A Curver multi-pack (set of three containers) which I will be putting to use in my pantry.

I think I'm going to need another two days to finish this!!

Have a great weekend!
