This is the first blog since the arrival of my newborn three months ago! As I was busy feeding the little one my toddler was dancing around the house getting up to her usual mischief of going through the house and untidying everywhere.
The next moment she discovered a tea cosy in one of my kitchen drawers which my mother in law made for me in crochet. Crochet is such a lovey traditional form of art which can be applied to make crafty home accesories, see for instance this lovely cushion for your couch. If one one of your family members can still do this, do get them to either teach you or get them to make you something precious.
Since she also has a creative soul, she used this tea cosy as a hat! I suddenly had the realisation that home decor doesn’t stop at beautiful lighting, wall art, ornaments, flowers, candle holders, frames etc.. but that home decor is also the people inside the home. My messy toddler bouncing around the house in her tea cosy/hat is the most beautiful (together with the 3 month old;) ) decor item in my home. All the beautiful things in my home tell stories of where I have been and they give me joy and pleasure, but none of them give me the pleasure as she does parading my home!
What kind of decor item are you in your home?
