Ewa Z. Sleziona
Ewa grew up in Upper Silesia, the largest industrial area in Poland. Being raised in a landscape of steelworks and coal mines, naturally directed her interests towards industry and its influence on the life surrounding her. Wrought iron gates or floral cast iron elements of architecture – She was fascinated by the blend of the artistry and the weight they carried. Ewa fell in love with the fire and forge; two great forces of change and creation. This love led her to discover the phenomenon of jewellery; a perfect symbiosis of art, metalsmithing and engineering knowledge.
After graduating in mechanical engineering, she moved to Sweden. Living close to nature and slowing down the pace of life gave a new perspective on her interests. Ewa merged her love for jewellery, and passion for metalwork and engineering, and established her own company. Ewa's world has changed and creating objects of beauty has become her life´s passion. Ewa's first pieces were strongly influenced by decorative and monumental ironwork – the artistic splendour of fine scrolls and lines, with the passing of time the world around her, the beauty of Nature, became involved in her designs. Today Ewa's pieces of jewellery are inspired by moments she has spent in the gardens and nature. They comprise reminiscent of the alluring beauty, symbolic language and secrets hidden behind the delicacy of flowers.
Each piece of Ewa's jewellery is entirely hand- crafted, -carved in precious metals and gemstones. She finds that combining traditional old jewellery techniques perfectly underlines the distinctive quality in my pieces. Ewa loves the slow and time consuming process in the making of her jewellery, resulting in intricate floral patterns and unusual surface textures. It is the precise balance of colour and techniques that ensures the uniqueness of her jewellery, which is why personally cutting, carving and selecting the gemstones for their - shape, size, fineness, colour and cut, lends significance and meaning to each piece.
Ewa's collection includes one-of-a-kind collectable pieces that reflect her appreciation of individuality and uniqueness. Each piece has its own personality and story to tell.

Sarah Jean Tatum
Sarah Jean Tatum, a senior at the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill, who's shopping acumen and expertise meant job security for many retail outlet employees in the Tar Heel state and beyond, passed away as a result of injuries sustained in a traffic accident on Thursday, April 2 in Manning, S.C. A memorial service will be held at a later date.
Sarah's twin sister MaryAnne, remains hospitalized at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston due to injuries from the same incident.
Sarah, 22, was born in Greenville, S.C. and was an employee of the Mellow Mushroom Pizza Restaurant in Chapel Hill. With a passport in one hand and a spatula in the other, Sarah loved to travel anywhere her mom's airline would take her, most recently, spending the summer as an au pair for a host family in Milan, Italy, where she learned the delicacies of Italian cuisine and the challenges of teaching English to two "le ragazze." (This might also explain her fascination with British television).
A brainiac in her own right, she graduated from Wilmington's New Hanover High School in 2011 with honors and was to graduate from UNC in May with a degree in Communications. At New Hanover was where she shined academically (like her sister) and molded friendships with many who she will continue to watch over.
Spirited and vibrant, Sarah is survived by her loving mother Lisa Tatum of Wilmington and father David Tatum of Garner, N.C., grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and family stretching from the East Coast to the West Coast and beyond. She is preceded in death by grandmom Jean Tatum and granddad Arthur Tatum of Roanoke Rapids, N.C. and grandmom MaryAnne Talley of Wilmington.
Although she will be missed, forgetting her will be impossible. And each time we see really loud obnoxious clothes, feast on mini Cadbury eggs (the milk chocolate kind of course), hear that certain "Uptown Funk" song that makes us breakout in unfortunate dance moves while singing at the top of our lungs, chow down on a chicken biscuit or laugh at a Kevin Hart movie, we know her spirit is with us.
Please visit Sarah and MaryAnne's CaringBridge website at www.caringbridge.org/visit/sarahmaryannetatum for continued updates on MaryAnne's progress and updates on the celebration of Sarah's life.

Boys' 1st VII Crowned County Champions
After two weeks of snow the 1st VII were straight into competition as they played at the County U13 tournament on Monday. This is always of a very high standard with the Suffolk Champions regularly proceeding to the National Finals and this year was no exception. The first match saw OBH up against the holders Ipswich. An OBH goal in the first minute meant an early lead but Ipswich soon took the score to 1-1. However, OBH then raised their game as they took control of the match, playing some excellent hockey to win 4-1. RHS were next and a 7-0 win meant that OBH had qualified for the semi-finals. A last group game came after a 40 minute break and the team were not at their best as Brandeston thoroughly deserved their 4-0 win. The first half of the semi-final was very close with Barnardiston and OBH both having chances but the game stood at 0-0 at half time. Again OBH stepped up their game and 3 well taken goals took the team to the final and qualification for the Regional Finals later in the term. The final was a re-match against Brandeston and the two best teams on the day fought out a very close match. Both teams had their chances to win but at 0-0 the game moved to golden goal and a minute into extra time the ball was drilled from the top of the D to win the County Championships for the first time in the school's history.

Linked T-Shirt
Part of my job is to design and procure promotional clothing like the branded caps t-shirts and polo shirts that we wear and (occasionally!) give out to clients... Sometime the designs are my own ideas and sometimes the ideas comes from Hughie (the MD) or even one of the staff.
For this one above (a one off exclusive run for Bauma) Hughie wanted to include a bar code and (at my suggestion) a QR code that could actually be read. And so here it is - a t-shirt that connects you to the internet!
The link is of course a page on our website specifically for people who have spotted someone wearing one of these cool puppies...

ORIGINAL: rob161 what are your stats at the minute mate? looking at that diet it seems extremely low in terms of cals. You'll do well to grow on that! your going 4 hours between meals also. why not try changing your meal times to; 6.30am 9.30am 12.30pm 3.30pm then you could maybe train slightly earlier? not sure what your schedules like, but at least with these timings you could actually fit in an extra meal.
ORIGINAL: richsINS WHat is that, 2100kcals? Perhaps 900 for breakfast or close? Not much veggies, Looks low on protein, i assume when you dont train youd not have the shakes too so that lowers calories and protein even further?
d thing is, i dont want another meal, just got out of a bulk and got a lof of fat,
looking at that diet it seems extremely low in terms of cals.
ORIGINAL: richsINS Ah i skim read, i cant be assed to type all ur foods into the calculators etc. I'd personally add more veg and meats, and probably break the breakfast into 2 meals so i got to eat more and didnt pile aload of food in at one go(Purely down to psychological and physical bloating reasons). Id also have meat + Carbs after my PWO shake too, or atleast some kind of food - Perhaps meat + veg. I just dont like he look the diet, atleast you got flax in for some EFA's though.
ORIGINAL: R3261 d thing is, i dont want another meal, just got out of a bulk and got a lof of fat, looking at that diet it seems extremely low in terms of cals. going from one extreme to the other is not necessarily a good thing before you know it you'll be back to before you started
ORIGINAL: rob161 if youv'e just got out of a bulk and added alot of fat then why are you bulking yet further? i definately think you need more cals, you'd be lucky to add any weight with that. if you are very carb sensitive perhaps add in more fats to get those cals up!
ORIGINAL: richsINS Some people may find the whole "so D ppwo has to B d sandwich" talk a bit off, ive seen people go nuts at others because they typed like they were texting so be brace yourself . Anyway, So you've bulked before got fat and you want to continue to bulk? Or do you want to gain muscle yet also not gain fat (a hard task to achieve). You've got to pick one option (lean bulk is fine) or cut for the summer, your 16 after all and when i was 16 i just wanted abs and girls If hunger isnt an issue on your current diet that youve shown us then ok, but veggies arnt just for hunger they'll provide fibre(constipation would suck), vitamins and other nutrients. They'll also help slow digestion of meals which would also keep hunger at bay and lower the GI of other foods. So, are we cutting or bulking?
ORIGINAL: richsINS Well im not sure we can compare a multivitamin to vegetables, i consider it more of an "insurance policy" to cover the bases that my diet may miss occasionally. However vegetables have other benifits, but if they're a problem just try fit some in where possible (Cucumber in salads, sweetcorn in tuna pasta+mayo meals etc). Ok so your lean and want to lean bulk, sounds good to me. I noticed 12pm meal pasta has NO protein, add some meat to this(throw a tin of tuna in tomato sauce, tastes ok). Personally i have tuna + Mayo + Pasta + Sweetcorn, yum. Seems its difficult to sugget any other changes due to your busy schedule, see what results you get in 2weeks aim for around 2lb a month gain (We're limited to around .5lb of muscle growth per week apparently) so anything else when naturlaly bulking will be fat/water weight etc. How big is a scoop of linseeds(aprox weight?), are you blending them before eating them or eating them whole?

Starting December 1, 2013, Harvard Pilgrim Healthcare will be offering members a new program called Elevate Healthcare HMO. You might be provided this as an option through your employer when you renew your health plan. Please be aware that even though this plan is through Harvard Pilgrim Healthcare ( HPHC) you will be significantly restricted in who you see for your medical care and where it is provided. The current network is restricted to 5 hospitals statewide and to a limited number of specialists. Only a small percentage of HPHC providers are in the Elevate network.
NHNSI is NOT a member of the ELEVATE Healthcare HMO, which will mean that you will need to change medical providers should you choose this health plan. Unlike other situations in the past where negotiations between healthcare providers and Insurance companies have been at the root of the problem, this is a situation where the health plan is choosing to limit the network. This is NOT based on performance or outcomes. At NHNSI we pride ourselves in tracking patient outcomes and providing cost effective treatment to all of our patients. We value you as our patient and strive to provide you the best treatment possible.

Elyse Knowles on how The Block impacted her relationship
Elyse Knowles and Josh Barker have seemingly been on cloud nine since winning The Block. But now, the 25-year-old model has made a sad confession that it wasn't always smooth sailing for the couple.
The blonde beauty recalled how the show put a huge strain on her five year relationship with Barker, 28, because they were often left feeling 'mentally drained' during filming.
'We do have to try and separate work away from home, which is pretty hard when you're living in your renovation and that was a struggle for us,' she told The Daily Telegraph this week.
'You sit down to have dinner but you'll literally be sitting on the floor of the house thinking 'We have so much to do'. You can never get away from it.'
Knowles continued, 'If we were stuck in the house for too long, we would get mentally drained. That's what The Block, does because you're there 24/7 and you're always working. You can never escape.'
The blonde model added that despite their ups and downs, the unique experience ultimately strengthened their relationship.

If the collective obsession with Instagram is any indication, polaroids aren't going anywhere any time soon. Nor will Helmut Newton Polaroids, the exhibition of the photographer's own obsession with the instant medium. Now comes news that the show will be held over through May 20, 2012. The extension—timed to coincide, and then some, with Berlin Fashion Week this month—is the result of popular demand. So far, more than 70,000 visitors have taken in the 300-plus photos on view at the Helmut Newton Foundation (Jebensstrasse 2, Berlin). And that's nothing to blow at.

October has been a fun month for Social Artworking!
Here's a little bit of the fun!
"Stacked Pumpkin" Class
Before class, I always like to do a little practicing at home.
Lovely ladies hard at work!!
With me painting step by step along with them, it definitely takes that "scary" out of painting!!
These ladies did an amazing job!!!
Private Class-"Thankful Chalkboard" Canvas
This month I was invited to teach our "Thankful Chalkboard Canvas" for a women's group at a local church.
They were very intent on mixing the "right" color orange! LOL
These ladies were ssooo proud of their weathered wood backgrounds. And they should be…they look fabulous.
Seriously…she's excited!!!!
Quick Selfie!
I loved teaching this class here. We were in their Children's ministry area and all the colors were bright and super fun.
The Social Artworking Stencils make it so easy to make the PERFECT lettering.
Beautiful Ladies with their beautiful canvases!
Thanks Church at Northwest Arkansas!
Mother/Daughter Fun-"Be Brave"
You might recognize some of these ladies.
A couple of the ladies from my "Thankful Chalkboard" class loved it so much they wanted to share it with their daughters.
So we set up a small painting party at my house.
Marissa is an artist at heart and enjoyed making the "Be Brave" canvas all her own.
The mamas were super serious…most of the time. 🙂
Mackenzie learned about the magic of a heat gun. She was so cute….I heard her say "OH my gosh…you can actually watch the paint dry!!!"
LOVE how these turned out.
The 2 on the right are going in the same room, so her mom created the work Happy instead of Brave, but kept the colors similar so that they still "match."
GREAT job ladies!!
My little wanted to paint with us, so we let her do her own thing. 🙂
If you look close, you can see she painted candy, lollipops and of course…a spider…because it's Halloween!
Final Thoughts
I hope you enjoyed seeing all the creative fun we've been having!

There are a lot of possible causes for incontinence and these can be split into sections – urge, stress, overflow, and total incontinence. One of the reasons why urge incontinence could be caused is a urinary tract infection, whereas stress incontinence can come from damage sustained due to childbirth. Overflow incontinence can be triggered by specific medication and total incontinence can be as a result of a bladder problem that you were born with. These are merely one possible cause for each category of incontinence and there are certainly a whole host of alternative reasons why each may occur. One of the other conditions often related to incontinence is dementia, although this is not the case with all dementia sufferers. If you are caring for someone who is going through this then you can make a difference in a lot of possible ways, including how you help to minimise the risk of mishaps.
At night time : Help People Deal With Incontinence
All kinds of people require the use of the bathroom on some occasions during the night but if someone is suffering from incontinence, or incontinence as a result of dementia, then it is a very good idea to discourage them from drinking fluids in the couple of hours or so leading up to when they go to bed.
Adapt the bathroom : Help People Deal With Incontinence
Dementia sufferers can have problems with finding their way around the bathroom so a good tip is to change the colour of the toilet seat so they can easily differentiate. Also consider having handrails installed and clearing all possible obstructions that could cause problems when they use the bathroom. Visual cues such as signs on the bathroom door to make it clear that the toilet is in this room are also helpful.
For all people who have incontinence it is possible that things can be made considerably easier by switching the type of clothing that they wear. When you have this problem it is far easier to have Velcro as opposed to zips for example. If you are caring for someone with incontinence try to ensure that they are not wearing any clothing that will be a struggle for them to remove when they need to use the toilet.
Lessening the impact
Preventative measures may not always work so you can help the situation via the use of incontinence pads. In terms of the bedding you may well want to make it waterproof or you could buy undersheets that are designed to help.

There are few places left on the planet where the impact of people has not been felt. We have explored and left our footprint on nearly every corner of the globe. As our population and needs grow, we are leaving less and less room for wildlife.
Wildlife are under threat from many different kinds of human activities, from directly destroying habitat to spreading invasive species and disease. Most ecosystems are facing multiple threats. Each new threat puts additional stress on already weakened ecosystems and their wildlife.
Habitat Loss
Habitat loss—due to destruction, fragmentation, or degradation of habitat—is the primary threat to the survival of wildlife in the United States.
Climate Change
Climate change is quickly becoming the biggest threat to the long-term survival of America's wildlife.
Habitat loss, climate change, and a lack of biodiversity can all make ecosystems unhealthy, putting wildlife at greater risk for disease.
Every day the byproducts of our daily lives make their way via the air and water into the natural environment and become pollutants.
Invasive Species
The impacts of invasive species on our natural ecosystems and economy cost billions of dollars each year. Many of our commercial, agricultural, and recreational activities depend on healthy native ecosystems.

How Good are Public Libraries
People sometimes ask if I mind people borrowing my books from the library rather than buying them. The answer is not at all.
First of all, I do get paid when my books are in libraries. Australian authors get paid Lending Rights when their books are in Australian libraries. The amount is capped, but for me it's not insignificant compared to other amounts I earn from writing. I didn't know about Lending Rights when I received my first payment, so it was a pleasant surprise.
But even aside from this, I still think libraries are ace. They provide free books (and audio books, and newspapers and digital material etc) to everyone. This is brilliant for us all and sharing stuff is good for the environment.
I've always borrowed books from libraries and I currently have a library card for four different public library services in Melbourne (a state-wide library card would make a lot of sense!) When I hear about a book I want to read, my first thought is to check if it's in the library.
So perhaps it's not surprising that when my first book, Loving Richard Feynman, was published I was even more excited to see it on a library shelf than I was to see it in the bookshop.
That excitement has not faded, and is sometimes a bit embarrassing. I'm not really proud of this next bit but anyway – I got a bit over-excited when I saw Stay Well Soon at the Hawthorn Library last week. I was playing with my son in the children's section and checked out Middle Fiction, and there it was. So I put Stay Well Soon on a prominent display shelf while no-one was looking.
A couple of days later I checked the catalogue to see if Stay Well Soon had been borrowed and it had! And it was also on-loan from quite a few other libraries too. Libraries that I hadn't even been in, rearranging the shelves. So now I realise there is something more exciting than seeing my book in the library – seeing my book has been checked out from the library. Hopefully that means some people are enjoying it, but if they're not, at least it was free.

Day 11: Oxford Booties
Hello Divas!
I hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving Day! I am still stuffed from yesterday, but I have lots of food to nibble on for the next few days.
Chamele loves Oxford Booties. I do too!
The oxford is one of this seasons biggest trends. Last season found young ladies in flat oxfords and no socks with dresses and pants alike. This season's trend combines the bootie of past seasons and the lace-up oxford for the ultimate in menswear inspired dressing- the oxford bootie. While I find the flat oxfords absolutely adorable, I tend to stick to heels. Even at 5'7 I am still on a quest to elongate my legs.
A good friend with an amazing shoe closet purchased a pair of lace-up oxfords to wear with jeans and button-downs. She picked an incredible wine color that was sporty and unique. I was green with envy at her wine colored purchase, the Nine West Trixy shown below. The Trixy is a lace up oxford with a 3. 5 inch heel. It comes black leather, dark gray and brown leathers $87.16 at Zappo's.
Some other spins on the trend include the Maria Sharapova by Cole Haan "Air Swan" Oxford Pump, $228.00 at Dillards. The Air Swan is a patent leather version of the oxford bootie that is topped with the velvet bow. A great dress-up shoe to keep the tickies warm.
Anthropologie also carries a purple suede oxford, the Caladoc Heel, for $228.00.

There are moments in parenting that have left me at a loss for just the right thing and the right words to say. And in those moments, the best thing I've learned to do is to lean in until the lesson is learned.
This past weekend, we went to Charlotte for a family event of cabbage ball (softball with a cabbage-sized ball – a New Orleans thing, I've heard). It was the Young 'Uns v. the Legends. Let me just say that it was quite a moment of realization to discover which team I was on! It didn't seem to alarm anyone on the team when I asked about the rules of the game, nor did they appear concerned when I asked what to do if I happened to catch the ball while the other team hit the ball (referred to as batting, I believe). It turned out I was on the winning team so nothing else really mattered. And it also didn't really matter that the winning team MADE the decision that they had won and walked off the field WITH the trophy. Winning isn't everything, but it was everything on that day. That day, I also won a special opportunity to open my heart a little bit more.
So I was sitting there with my husband, talking and watching and laughing over crazy family talk when our 7 year-old son came up to us with a look on his face that I had learned to recognize over the years. There were no tears flowing, but I knew they were stuck in his throat and that his throat hurt. But not as much as his little heart was hurting. I have come to understand that, for David, the louder the cry, the less hurting there was. This was an inaudible cry. He stood there silently, sniffing and fidgeting with his fingers and then a few tears brimmed over as we asked him what was going on and offered him a hug and a hand. No response from him. He continued to fidget and sniff and try to hold the tears in his throat. After about 5 minutes, I took his hand and suggested we walk away somewhere. He walked with me, digging his face into the side of my waist as we walked. Still holding back his cries and his words. I tried asking questions creatively and from different angles, hoping that he would cave on one of them and then tell me what happened. Still nothing. We finally got to a bench and he sat on my lap. I asked a few more questions.
I REALLY wanted to know. I NEEDED to know. My heart was hurting like it was his own little heart and yet I knew it was not and that, no matter how much I was hurting for him, I could not make that hurting go away. I could not take his pain away. This was another growing up moment for me as a mother. I realized in that moment that he was growing up and that there would be many, many more times when I would not be able to take his pain away. That I would have to step aside and know that his pain, his lessons in life would be for him to get through. Often by himself.
I stopped asking him questions then and pulled him closer to me and just held him and tried to make my love tangible and healing for him. I leaned into this hard moment in which I knew no more questions nor answers. I simply leaned in. It was a tender moment. He was very tender. We sat that way, the two of us and I allowed visions of him, a teenager, a grown man, a father, a spouse feeling pain in his life and having to work his way through it by himself. I prayed that he would always have love surrounding him through his painful times and I felt grateful for this moment of the opportunity to surround him with my love. His breathing slowed down after a while and his hands pulled my arms tighter around him.
I asked another question and explained that I wanted to know so that I could maybe understand and help him think through what had happened. He finally told me. He was playing with his best buddy in the whole world and a few other boys and he (playfully) hurt his best buddy with a hockey stick and one of the other, older kids said he didn't want to play with him. And they all went off and played without him. Best buddy included. Even though he understood David didn't mean to hurt him and was not mad at him. The other kids were playing a game he wanted in on and he went off to play with them. David was hurt. Mostly because he felt betrayed but also because he was excluded by a kid who didn't know him and didn't understand the special relationship between him and his best buddy. He knew he had made a mistake. He didn't know how to fix it and he was hurt that his best buddy went off to play with the kid that told him he couldn't play. Regular kid stuff. But I hurt for my little boy who was hurting and trying to make sense of it all.
And that's where my experience that has sat with me since my childhood came into play. It was as if the Universe made sense for a moment. I reminded my son of the story I had told him about the two little girls that came over to play with my older sister and I often. About how they came over once and gave my mother an invitation to a birthday party. I was just outside the room and I could hear the older one say to my mother, "We want only Nancy to come. Not Rhina. Just Nancy." My 6 year-old heart sank to the floor and every doubt I had about my ability to make friends and be loved by people who were not family and, thus, not required to love me, was confirmed in that one instance. I pulled my son closer still and told him that I knew that feeling he was feeling right then. And it seemed okay to me then that I had ever felt that feeling because now I could be there with my beloved son and sit with him and know, really KNOW, what he was feeling. Somehow, being able to have empathy for him made the painful experience I'd had completely worth it in that moment. Maybe all the hard stuff I had ever felt were lessons to prepare me for moments such as this one. That nothing I had ever endured was in vain.
We were eventually able to talk a little and I threw out a few reminders of how wonderful and amazing he is and how sometimes he would meet people who didn't see his beautiful spirit – his Divine spirit. The same Spirit that was a part of them, too. I reminded him that he needed to try to see their Divine spirits no matter how angry he felt. He didn't buy much of what I said. He picked up a stick and wrote in the sand, "He is mean." He wasn't on board with the idea that he shared the same spirit with the kid who hurt him. Not in that moment. But I hoped that someday he would remember and give the idea a fair chance. We continued to sit there for a while longer as he grappled with what to do with his feelings.
When he was ready we held hands and headed back to the rest of the family and the games and the trash-talking. He was able to salvage the rest of the afternoon and he and his best buddy found their way back to each other as magnets often do. I watched him and felt the joy I often feel when I see him happy. The world returned to normal again. But the little piece of my heart that was opened up to the realization that I would not always have the opportunity to know and console and love my son stayed open. And I was reminded once again of the depth of pain and joy that is mothering. After all, my children are my teachers and opening my heart up is what I'm here to do. They teach me every day.
We won in more ways than one that day. Cabbage ball may have hurt a little as I, literally, slid this legendary body into first base after getting over my surprise at making contact AND hitting the ball a reasonable distance in the right direction. But winning an opportunity to lean into a painful moment with my son was priceless.
Truthfully yours,

How can I make my bathroom beautiful
Here is how to make your bathroom beautiful:
I decided to write down art ideas and to blog about the things I researched on my own. By writing this post I ended up discovering many great tips and ideas I am sure you will be interested to read about.
As you certainly already know ceramic art and tile is a natural in the bathroom. They are water proof, mold resistant due to their hard finish and very durable. They last forever. They are easy to clean. The list goes on. Plus there are hundreds of ceramic and tile ideas to fit endless designs. You can't really go wrong with ceramics in the bathroom.
If you are looking to decorate your walls and want to see all my decor items please visit my home page. Please note some of my handmade wall art may have sold. I always try to have a supply on hand but some items go fast.
Popular Bathroom Wall Art Ideas
Using mirrors and a white or light marble tile in the bathroom together give off an opulence or glamour appearance
The latest trend today is to use ceramic tiles as a work of art by selecting complementary colors that fit your color scheme and hanging them. One method I found was accomplished by placing tiles on a sturdy waterproof board and adding a frame. You can also go the extra mile and add a decorative tile boarder. This, in addition, to the frame gives the piece a unique and beautiful appearance. Plus the great thing about using tile is it's easy to clean and it's waterproof.
Adding color creates an interest
Another scheme I found was by adding a lot of color. Adding color to the walls creates an interest. Ceramics are easy to clean and most of all they are water proof. Being in a bathroom makes it a natural choice. There are many popular ceramic art themes from fish, birds or wildlife scenes to choose from. One great idea is to build a scene using multiple ceramic pieces. This adds visual interest and color to any neutral color. I believe the more colorful the art the better. That's just my opinion. With this scheme you can now add the accent color you want. For example, you could pull the vibrant greens or blues (whatever color) from the ceramic art and add complementary color towels and rugs. Later, you can always change the color without much effort.
Another concept is to have your decorative tile directly inlaid into your new or existing wall tile. Layering the tile gives a framed look that's built into the wall (Photo by Ornella Binni). This makes if super attractive and very easy to maintain. You have the option to pair different colors and tile options creating your own unique personal appearance.
What is inlay work?
Inlay refers to the technique of inserting different color or contrasting color tiles into the main body of the tile work to form a decorative motif or pattern that normally is flush with the main body of work.
What is encaustic tile?
Many people refer to inlaid tile as encaustic tile. But actually that is not correct. But the word has been misused so much it's now accepted as the definition. Encaustic actually refers to the process of painting with beeswax paint that was very hot. Encaustic tiles are usually composed of two colors of tile that are inlaid.
Some examples are using mirrors and a white or light marble tile together give off an opulence or glamour appearance. Using a textured ceramic tile adds the illusion of stone. Using combinations of textured tile and smooth tiles creates a high-end interest. Another favorite is to use inlays or a recessed shelves creating a layered effect. Any tiles that can be framed makes a great design especially if the mosaic it framed.
In today's market most new houses sold, tile type and color, and are being used to make a distinct separation between the shower and or tub and the rest of the room. This makes the shower for example stand out and turns it into the center piece of the area. The tiles do not have to match exactly but should look good and go together. For example, you could always use black and white. A black or dark floor and lighter color walls is a tried and true winning combination. Creating contrast is good and this is one of the easiest ways to create contrast. Having an all-white room with no contrast makes it way too boring and not enough appeal or personality. Using a different color floor tile creates interest.
Here is a great example of mirrors, light marble and separation between shower
Ceramic Wall Art Tiles an Easy Lesson
Also during my research I found that using mosaics is a great way to add an exciting accent. Mosaics can be added to the backsplash or inlayed into the shower. A recessed shower shelve works well and also has utility. One popular design is to use subway tile to create a stripe. You can also use subway tile (Photo by Charles Deluvio) to create a framed effect for a mosaic. Using a combination of ceramic tile finishing varying the color and shine can also add appeal.
The size of the tile also have a big impact (Photo by Kirill Zakharov). On major benefit of using a large tile is that is covers more area and can be easy to clean since there are fewer grout lines to worry about. However using large ceramic tile in a small room can be problematic. It can make a small room look really small. Your tile size should be sized according to the size of your space. One sure fire way to improve the look of a small area is to use ceramic tile all the way up to the ceiling. This makes the area visually look more appealing and taller. Also, using tile and colors that are the same color or very close to the same color makes the room look larger. So, if you just moved into a new house and the tile is already there simply paint the "no-tiles portion" the same color as the tile. This trick works great every time to make your area look larger than it really is.
Also tiling your shower all the way up to the ceiling also create a dramatic affect. It makes your shower or tub area look larger. It becomes visually taller. This provided a visual add height to the area. Plus makes the entire area easy to clean and more durable since it's all or mostly all covered in waterproof tiles. I really like this idea and may end up using it when I remodel my shower. Currently, my shower area is not tiled all the way to the ceiling.
Natural color tiles will most always work the best sense they go with almost all colors (Photo by Jason Briscoe). Use neutrals then add color with accents like towels and decorations. If you have sell or move the new buyer will most likely change the accents to their favorite color and not have to reconstruct any tile.
The biggest Problems with Ceramic Tile You Must Simply Avoid
Color is the number one problem. Once you pick a color there is no turning back you are stuck with that color. There are so many different color options and styles it can be overwhelming to decide. You can always check out Pinterest for ideas or go to you local tile shop. In today's market I found out Grays are by far the most popular color. By combining Grays with accent colors you can create an interesting look. Like using Gray and White or a lighter color. Another popular color is the use of neutrals or natural earthy colors. For example, a coffee or chocolate color ceramic tile and a lighter color like beige always looks good together.
The main objective is to choose the right color. By choosing the wrong combinations you are stuck with something you can't change. And if you have to sell your house good luck if your buyer does not like the color you picked. Just watch all the house buying TV shows and when the new buyer walks into the room the first thing they say is they do not like the color of the tile. The best approach is to stay neutral and choose accent colors in towels and throw rugs to create interest. Plus if you get tired of the color it makes for an easy change.
Grays and neutrals are popular colors today
What You Can Do About Your Bathroom Color Right Now
With just a few simple accent pieces you can completely change the look of your bathroom. That is of course if your area is not decorated in green or pink subway tile. If that's the case then there is no hope, ha! You do not have to invest in costly construction like adding ceramic tiles and installing new lighting. Just by simply updating your decor can give your room an entirely fresh look and feel. If you are skilled you can even make some of these ideas at home.
Let's explore more ideas. Here are some easy schemes I found.
One of the cheapest ideas is to use wallpaper. But not the way you are thinking. I am talking about framed wallpaper. Find wallpaper that matches your bathroom color scheme and mount it to a ridged foam board. I would use foam due to it's going to be in a steamy environment and it's going to be water proof. I would also choose a wallpaper that is designed for bathroom use so it also will be waterproof or at least water resistant. Choose the right size and mount the wallpaper to the foam board. You can even frame it if you want. You can change it out easily and you do not have much invested. One word of caution, depending on your skill and the wallpaper you choose this can look really good or really bad. Make sure you get some opinions before you settle in on a design theme.
I have also seen a lot of shells being used. It's a natural and goes well in most situations. I've seen large sea shells being used as a soap holder and smaller sea shells hot glued to wood and or arranged into a pattern and framed. This idea can dress up an area quickly and give your room a beach like appearance. Here again I must repeat, this idea can look really good or really bad. I've seen it where its overdone and the end result looks bad. The designer went overboard.
A huge trend today is to use painted canvas. It's easy and relative low cost. You can even do it yourself. The trick is to select simple designs and big pictures to make a visually appealing statement. Do not select intricate paintings or designs. Go for simple designs, no detailed paints or drawings. Pick complementary colors and your choice of accent color. If you are inclined to make it yourself you can start out with a blank canvas. Paint the canvas all one color that best suits your decor and add a simple design or paint letters in a contrasting color. Most people tend to choose words like Soap and Water, 5 Cents, etc. There are many online shops that sell these pre-made. Also, another idea is to choose simple black and white framed photographs. Most black and whites go well with most any color and can provide an interesting accent visual to your bathroom.
The problem with most of the ideas mentioned above is they have been done many times and although they look good and can work out very well it's nothing unique.
My top bathroom décor tips - What You Really Need To Know About Your Bathroom
If you are stuck with a dated space and are looking to change the visual appearance without too much work or expense lighting can make a huge difference. Many times the lighting fixture can quickly be dated. Once I see the round four or six white light bulbs in a row mounted above the mirror I know immediately it's old. Changing the lighting is not that hard to do or expensive and can have a dramatic effect on the color and mood. Older lighting casts ugly shadows and project unnatural color on your skin. New lighting can make your area look larger, newer and fresher. Plus makes your color accents and art stand out and be noticed. I tend to go with led lighting especially in small rooms because of the heat. With incandescent bulbs heat is a major factor. Six regular bulbs can heat up a small bathroom quickly. LEDs are much cooler depending on the style and brand.
Paint can make a huge difference due you are most likely changing the color of the wall to better fit your color scheme. This also can complement the color of your decor making it look more visually appealing. You do not have to choose a glossy color anymore just to get the mildew resistant protections. Most all matte colors have the mildew additive or it can be added at the store at the time of purchase. Lighter color matte finishes work well. Using a matte natural color and a ceramic art gallery of your favorite items can be a great way to add impact and decoration to your walls.
New sinks and facets also make a big impact. Upgrading to a new style can be done without much cost. And most likely if your hardware has not been changed out recently you might be due for an upgrade anyway. Changing out the hardware on the vanity and or cabinets is a great idea and easy to do. Most hardware is just screwed on. For the drawer pulls, you just need to be careful to measure the distance between the holes and choose the right size pull replacement. This has nothing to do with ceramic art but it's an easy upgrade worth mentioning.
Pick accents that complement your wall art. This is an easy way and low cost way to add a flowing modern color accent to your room. Change out the rug and or floor mats to a new color (Photo by Hutomo Abrianto). Pick towels in an accent color to add some pop. If you have a large enough area you can also add accessories. You may have a shelf or lighted area or cove where a live pant or floral arrangement will add an accent to the room. A new wastebasket (Photo by Paul Hanaoka) and a soap dish or pump can be used as well to add a color accent. These are low cost schemes that adds color, accents and complements your art.
Building wall mounted shelves to hold ceramic art is also a great idea to add color accents to your bathroom. You can also add pictures, framed art and other appealing items in different sizes and shapes on the shelves. They can be changed out easily at any time. This scheme works well when building a gallery of similar or favorite items. If you have a large bare wall this approach works well. If your bathroom walls are painted a light blue for example you could add items to your shelve that are complement colors. Repeating patterns can be used as well. Pick an art décor with a repeating pattern in different sizes to build your gallery. For example if I had a light natural green wall and by using multiple darker green ceramic flowers in varying sizes would make a good focal point.
Not all walls have to be decorated. Sometimes a blank wall looks good. It can be accomplished by using over-sized contemporary tiles. Using four by nineteen tiles across a wall in a rich color give the simplicity of a pattern with an elegant look and feel. This scheme works well with one wall done this way.
Bathroom Wall Art Sculptures - My Art Ideas
Being a ceramic artist I made my own ceramic art. It had to have a mixture of color to make it versatile. I wanted to be able to pull any color from my work and use it as my accent color. I would use towels and throw rugs in the accent color to make a visual impact. I wanted to make it easy to change the accent color whenever I wanted. It's easy to change out the towels and rug for another color and give the area a new different look. My room was already in a natural color so all I needed was to plan my wall gallery. My space was a natural color so my ceramic art work if done in the right colors would pop. I decided to go with a gallery because I had one area that was fairly large and bare. One piece would look awkward and would not fill the space so a gallery would be the best choice. I also wanted something that would be steam proof. My room tends to get real steamy therefore I knew ceramics would hold up very well.
Since I was planning a gallery of ceramics I wanted to size each piece the right size. I did not want to have it too big. I ended up with ceramics about nine and ten inches long. This size would fill the space and work well in my situation. I thought about doing starfish or maybe old signs to make it look vintage but I ended up making ceramic fish. The fish would be grouped together on the wall making my gallery. I would position them going down or up at a slight angle to make it interesting. To form the gallery all I need was three fish approximately nine to eleven inches long each.
Three fish were made by cutting the clay into three equal parts and rolling them out on the roller to get a nice and even thickness. All the air was worked out of the clay beforehand. I then marked the clay with my design and cut the clay into the shape of a fish. The clay fish was then set out to dry. The clay slowly dried out and became what's called "Leather Hard". This is a state where the water in the clay has evaporated. In this state, the clay art is easily breakable. I applied several coats of paint, let dry and then fired the pieces up to about two thousand degrees in the kiln. My color scheme was to be colorful and to use complementary colors that looked great together. The fish turned out to be great. They did not break during the firing process. I mounted the fish turning the space into a ceramic art gallery. I like the results so much I went on to make many more ceramic fish. For each one I used complementary vivid colors that looked good together. I now have a lot of ceramic colorful fish that are all unique.
Green with Pink and Blues. Smooth and flowing color combination.
Bathroom Wall Ideas Conclusion
I hope this was an interesting article and provided you with some decor ideas. Ceramic tile and ceramic art works well and by using a natural color and using a darker color accents and art you can make a dramatic impact. This scheme also makes it easy to change to another color. And if you are going to sell, the buyer most likely will not have to reconstruct tiles for another color. They would simply change the accents. In the end, I learned a lot about bathrooms. More than I really want to know just to make art. But it was interesting.

The rapid growth of cities in the developing world is placing enormous demands on urban food supply systems, hence, this extremely indispensable concept "Urban Agriculture". Urban agriculture is the practice of cultivating, processing, and distributing food in or around a village, town, or city. It can be simply defined as growing fruits, herbs, and vegetables, and raising animals in cities.
A major question that faces the existence of urban agriculture is the distinguishing factor from the rural agriculture. The urban agriculture is distinguished from rural agriculture by its ability to be integrated into the urban economic and ecological system.
The concept of Urban Agriculture will expand the economic base of the city through production, processing, packaging, and marketing of consumable products. This will result in an increase in entrepreneurial activities and the creation of jobs, as well as reducing food costs and improving quality. It will also culminate in improved overall social and emotional well-being
The current industrial agriculture system is accountable for high energy costs for the transportation of foodstuffs. According to a study by Rich Pirog, the associate director of the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture at Iowa State University, the average conventional produce item travels 1,500 miles (2,400 km), using, if shipped by tractor-trailer, 1 US gallon (3.8 l; 0.83 imp gal) of fossil fuel per 100 pounds (45 kg). The energy used to transport food is decreased when urban agriculture can provide cities with locally grown food
Vacant urban lots are often victim to illegal dumping of hazardous chemicals and other wastes. They are also liable to accumulate standing water and "grey water", which can be dangerous to public health, especially left stagnant for long periods. The implementation of urban agriculture in these vacant lots can be a cost-effective method for removing these chemicals.
Urban agriculture is important to the agricultural sector because vegetable growers spend less on transport, packaging and storage, and can sell directly through street food stands and market stalls. More income goes to them instead of middlemen, thereby increasing the quota of agriculture in poverty alleviation. It also provides employment and incomes for poor women and other disadvantaged groups.
Urban agriculture can reflect varying levels of economic and social development. In the global north, it often takes the form of a social movement for sustainable communities, where organic growers, 'foodies,' and 'locavores' form social networks founded on a shared ideology of nature. These networks can evolve when receiving formal institutional support, becoming integrated into local town planning as a 'transition town' movement for sustainable urban development. In the developing south, food security, nutrition, and income generation are key motivations for the practice. In either case, more direct access to fresh vegetables, fruits, and meat products through urban agriculture can improve food security and food safety.
Furthermore, the current industrial agriculture system is accountable for high energy costs for the transportation of foodstuffs. The energy used to transport food is decreased when urban agriculture can provide cities with locally grown food. The energy-efficient nature of urban agriculture can reduce each city's carbon footprint by reducing the amount of transport that occurs to deliver goods to the consumer.
Also, daily intake of a variety of fruits and vegetables is linked to a decreased risk of chronic diseases including diabetes, heart disease and cancer. Urban agriculture is associated with increased consumption of fruits and vegetables which decreases risk for disease and can be a cost-effective way to provide citizens with quality, fresh produce in urban settings. Talking about nutrients, the nutrient content of produce from an urban garden may be higher due to decrease in time between production and consumption. A 30 to 50 per cent nutrient loss can happen in the time it takes to travel from farm-to-table.
The aforementioned make the practice of urban agriculture extremely inviting but why then is urban agriculture almost inexistent and how can we incorporate it in our society in the 21st century?

Last night I ate
a chicken and chips from Chicken Cottage and didn't die, hurrah!
What do you eat after a long night out?
Did you go to see that smiths cover band at the lumineire?
... I would never intentionally
go see a Smith's cover band, anywhere, ever.
Nah I met a mate for drinks, then saw Paul Hawkins at the 12 Bar (good new material, yeah!) then went to Jonny 'spit's DJing set at the Good Ship. And lost Chris pricks for a quite a while because he's a drunken numpty. With amazing splits skills though!
I wandered over in my post-last exam purposeless state, it wasnt too bad. There is a chicken cottage near it that sells 20 chicken nuggests and chips for 1.99. Just reminded me of that.
People who can do the splits are more likely to get inguinal hernias. But they can do the splits. So I think it all works out equal in the end.
a wut hernia?
did you go to Silver Rocket the other week?
brusma wouldn't let me try to hunt you down, spoilsport :(
brusma is as wise as he is curly
and apparently studly
Its when abdominal contents - mostly the intestines pass into the groinal region. Its not fun.
I didnt go to that after all, so hunting me down would have been a fruitless, if not impossible, task.
had my first
deep fried pizza on Thursday night after a pub crawl round Glasgow.
And on a school night as well. And I've still got it cos I got ID'd evwn thought I've turned 30. And I was older than the doorman. And and and...
The young doorman was letching all over me...
Oh, you mean the pizza. Er, it was actually quite tasty at the time, in a post-eight-pints-of-Guinness-and-I. NEED. FOOD. kinda way. And then the guilty realisation kicks in. Apparently they use the really cheap pizzas cos they're better at sucking up more grease.
Overall: 4.7/10 -Does what it says on the tin.
haha. that's such bloke food.
it was just a chicken burger. Chicken Cottage don't have a rep for being the cleanest fast food joints in the world, so i'm grateful my insides appear to still be intact today.
Chicken kebab
from the Orient Express on Streatham High Road. Nothing else will do. It's their chilli sauce I reckon. Absolutely remarkable.
with JALEPENOS. LOTS OF THEM.
It's been an age since I've had cheesy chips and naan. Mmmm
oh god i want a chicken cottage
or a kfc. there's both in hammersmith, gotta decide which one to go for.
I'm pretty sure I had a kebab last night
i remember getting the bus in kilburn and then i woke up in catford
oh wait, I thought I remembered something else then, but it's gone
but if I'm really drunk I usualy try and get some kind of meat in side me (whey!). A curry would be ideal but that is pretty hard to come by to be honest.
oh my
usually kebab or hamburger nommmm

The Yew Garden is a rectangular garden surrounded by a clipped hedge of Yew. Set in the lawn in each corner are hexagonal beds of Dahlias and Japanese Forest Grass. There is a paved walkway to the centre where a fifth hexagonal bed is planted in the same way but with the addition of an Agave in a tall urn. The design is simple but effective.
Below the Yew Garden another path from the Dell runs along the top of the tennis lawn. It is edged with boxwood and runs in front of the Temple. The same path continues to the Sunken Garden.

from last December.
Her familiar voice from two time zones away, driving home to her husband after a day of teaching.
"I've been reading a lot of psalms on waiting."
I switch ears. Rinse the soap off a bowl, set it aside to dry.
"Oh yeah?"
"That one... oh, I can't remember the reference. It says 'I believe that I will see the goodness of the Lord. In the land of the living.'"
"Ohhh yeah... I love that one."
We sit quietly on the phone together for a few beats. I think about waiting. The waiting they've been doing, waiting I feel. I think about what a promise to see goodness in the land of the living might and might not mean.
She drives. I scrub the sponge across a cookie sheet. She completed paperwork for an IEP for one of her students this week and the special ed department was crazy helpful. I had my semester evaluation with my supervisor yesterday, it was unexpectedly encouraging. They're going out to dinner with friends from small group tonight. I bought quilt fabric today, gorgeous batiks in browns and greens.
"I've been hanging out in this passage in Isaiah..." I tell her.
Enlarge the place of your tent, and let your habitations be stretched out; do not hold back; lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes.
We talk about it being hard to continue to make room- to keep stretching out, enlarging... in hope. Hard to continue to wait to see the goodness of the Lord in certain fallow places; to believe that we will see it here, "in the land of the living". Easier to put up walls, move on, stop hoping for certain things, stop allowing any empty space at all. Enlarge. Stretch. Lengthen. Strengthen. Do not hold back. Room-making words. Waiting words.
My full heart, as I connect with this beloved friend, baking bread in my little kitchen in the community I love. Her full heart, driving home to his arms, pouring herself out every day for the kids she believes in. Her waiting heart, her frustration and confusion, her cries to Him. My waiting heart, my fear and longings, my cries to Him.
Her dance performance this weekend was so much fun. She was supposed to babysit some friends' kids but they cancelled. My morning client didn't show so I got to start my day with a half hour reading over coffee. I have my tree up and friends have filled it with ornaments. So I'm considerinnngg this thing that probably doesn't make sense... well, sometimes God calls us to hard things, I'll be praying. Thanks, babe.
She's home, time to get ready to go out.
Love you. Love you. Talk to you this weekend. Sounds good.
My dishes are done. The dough is risen and ready to be put in the oven.
It's advent. We're full. We love. We're thankful and happy. And we wait.

Boss says he will talk to Arsenal about Chuks loan extension following red card
Steve Davis has hinted that he may look to extend the loan of Chuks Aneke once his current deal runs out. Davis will contact his former Stoke City team-mate Steve Bould at Arsenal to discuss the merits of Aneke remaining at Crewe Alexandra once he has served his three-match suspension following the red card he received for his two-footed lunge on Anthony Grant in Saturdays' 2-2 draw with Stevenage.
October.ndAneke,19, will only be available for the club's home game against Oldham Athletic on 2
Steve told the club's official web-site: "I didn't think it was a malicious tackle from Chuks but it was a bit clumsy and maybe there was a bit of frustration in there because he has not played too many games. He was very down afterwards and he has to learn from it quickly.
"It was the same with Nick (Powell) last season when he lunged into a tackle at Shrewsbury. He came back and learnt his lesson. We are now without Chuks for three games and it is disappointing because we are short of midfield players. It is also disappointing for Chuks because he wanted to come here and show everyone the ability he has.
"He wants to play and we will discuss about extending his loan or not when the time comes. We haven't made a decision yet and I will contact Steve Bould at Arsenal and discuss things. He would have seen the challenge and know that he isn't that sort of player.
"Chuks has ability and it is a shame that he hasn't been able to have the impact he would have wanted because of his three-match suspension."

Eating flowers is a tradition thousands of years old. In many dishes of the Middle East and Persia were used rose and orange petals. Cherry blossom and chrysanthemum has been popular in Japan. Petals carnations were part of the of the famous French liqueur Chartreuse, whose recipe kept in secret. Dandelion is mentioned in the Old Testament as the bitter spice.
In the last three hundred years nasturtium, which comes from Peru, became popular in the cuisine of Europe and North America.
In our kitchen we all use flowers, and that we are not even aware, these are: artichokes, broccoli and cauliflower. Flowers can decorate not only the garden, but also your table. Flowers such as violet and marigold can serve as a colorful and exquisite decoration for salads and raw desserts. Watercress – for many favorite flowers – have a wonderful spicy flavor.
The benefits of edible flowers
It is widely known that flowers have a positive effect on mood and emotional state of man. In the western tradition consumption of flowers is still relatively young and therefore there is not enough research on the positive effect of flowers on health.
However alternative medicine testify to the many health benefits of flowers. Flower roses helps the work of the liver and intestines. Chamomile relieves stress and strengthens the immune system. Begonia eliminates toxins and cleanses the liver. Chrysanthemums treats the flu and colds.
Valerian soothes and eases insomnia. Marigold is known for its antiseptic and anti-fungal properties and is used in the homeopathic and conventional medicine for faster wound healing.
Marigold also relieves menstrual pain, tonsillitis and sore throat. Watercress, which has antiviral and antibacterial properties, cures colds, respiratory infections and diseases of the urinary tract. Flowers plums is used for cough, respiratory diseases and diarrhea.
Choosing flowers
Do not eat flowers from florists, due to pesticides. It is best to grown your own flowers – so you can be absolutely sure that it does not contain pesticides. When choosing flowers you need to know that not all flowers are edible. Some flowers is difficult to digest, while the other is toxic. Pick the flowers in the morning or in the evening, when they contains most water. Choose flowers that are only opened and looks alive and healthy. Avoid flowers that look sick or which are eaten by bugs. Usually only eat the petals of flowers, excluding safflower and saffron, whose pestle is used as a spice.
Preparing flowers
Wash the flowers, by gently immersing it in a bowl of salt water. If you want to "revive" the flowers, put it in a bowl of ice water to 30-60 seconds. After that, dry it on a paper towel. Now, carefully tear off the petals and other parts of the flower, which you plan to consume.
If you want to leave flowers for later, put the flowers in a glass jar with water and store it in the refrigerator. You can keep petals of flowers in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for one day, but it is best to eat the petals within a few hours.
Cooking with flowers
The flowers are beautiful decoration for any meal, but what about its taste? Flowers bean has a sweet smell and taste of beans. Nasturtium has a wonderful spicy flavor, as a watercress. Borage tastes like cucumber, while pansy has a delicate taste of evergreen plants.
Violet, rose and lavender give salads and desserts sweet taste. Bright yellow marigold can replace saffron. If you suspect which flavor flower has, try it – but firstly be sure that it is not toxic.
Useful tips
- Decorate your favorite sauce with gladiolus or hibiscus flowers (tear off the stigma and pestle).
- Sprinkle salad with edible flowers for beautiful look and taste.
- Freeze every flower in an ice cube for a great decoration for drinks.
- Use flowers to prepare jellies and marinades.
- Use candied flowers to decorate the cakes and pies.
- Do not serve dishes with flowers to asthmatic and allergic people.
- Never use inedible flowers for the purpose of decoration. Your guests will probably think that is edible flowers and eat it.
- Start with a small amount of flowers. Give yourself time to get used to a new kind of food.
- 4 cups of lettuce
- 4 cups mixed salad
- ¼ cup of petals of edible flowers
- 1/8 cup finely chopped herbs (basil, chives, tarragon, etc.)
- ¼ cup pecan and pine nuts
- ½ cup chopped tomatoes
- ¼ cup red bell pepper, finely sliced
- 1/8 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon onion, finely chopped
- 1/8 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/4 teaspoon tarragon
- 1 ½ teaspoons honey
- 2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped
- ½ cup lemon juice
- ¾ cup olive oil
- Grind all the ingredients in a blender, add the salad and mix it very well.

Lookbook for fashion label 'Not So Serious' by Pallavi Mohan (for Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week, SS 2015). The collection was named
'Walk on the Wild Side' – which used a pastel color palette with hints of sheerness, sparkle and mischief.
The look book was inspired by the garments' floral embroideries and delicate motifs with the color palette and spring inspired outlook driving the overall essence. Digital Illustrations were seamlessly added over the photoshoot images with color washes behind certain looks. The aim was to keep the garments in focus while adding an element of interest to the compositions.
The project conceptualisation & execution was undertaken while working at NH1 Design Pvt. Ltd. with the guidance of their design team.
