Pridih francoskega podeželja.../ A touch of the French countryside...

Pa sem zaključila še z enim lesenim projektom.
Mizo sem kupila predvsem zato, ker ni škatlaste oblike in ker je pravi hrastov les.
Ker se že nekaj časa navdušena nad kombinacijo francoskih besed in obrabljenega videza, sem se odločila, da tudi sama poizkusim to tehniko.

Francoska inspiracija / French inspiration

Najprej smo jo razstavili, odstranili nekatere zarjavele vijake in jih zamenjali z novimi. Sledilo je razredčilo in brušenje. Mizo sem čistila 4 ure....

Delo v teku / Work in progress

Nanesla sem 2 sloja hitro sušeče barve. Se vidi, da je pravi les, ker se je barva nanašala odlično!

2 sloja barve / 2 coats of paint

In sedaj francoski del...
Čas barvanja: 3 ure!

Ročno delo / Handwritten

Ker mi to ni bilo dovolj, sem se odločila, da še uporabim črno pisalo, da malo obrobim črke.

Z črno obrobo / With black lines

Za obrabljen videz sem nato uporabila brusni papir in na določenih mestih zbrusila barvo.
Imeli smo malce težav pri sestavljanju, saj vijaki prvič niso bili naravnost priviti, prav tako smo za par milimetrov odrezali noge, ker miza ni bila stabilna. In ja, poskušali smo vse ampak ni in ni hotela biti stabilna...no sedaj je :) .
Na koncu smo nanesli lak.


Tako in sem zaključila z mizo...
Sedaj me pa na hodniku že čaka novo delo...







ENGLISH VERSION: 

I ended with another wooden project. 
I bought the table mainly because there is no box-shape and because it is a real oak wood. 
Since I'm impressed by the combination of the French words and worn appearance, I decided to try this technique myself.

First of all, we have dismantled, removed some rusty screws and replace them with new ones. Then we applied thinner and then we sand the table. I was cleaning a table for 4 hours.

And now the French part ...  Painting time: 3 hours.

That wasn't enough for me, I decided that I will use black ink, so the letters would pop out.

For the worn look, I used sandpaper and in certain places sanded paint. 
We had a little trouble with the assembly, because the screws have been tightened straight when we removed the legs, also we cut off the legs for a couple of millimeters because a table was not stable. 

And that's my French countryside table....

Krapinski pračlovek in dvorec Trakoščan.../ Neanderthal from Krapina and mansion Trakoščan...

Ponovno delim ideje za izlet...
Muzej krapinskega pračloveka in Trakoščan sta bila dva različna izleta. Ampak glede na oddaljenost priporočam ogled isti dan.
V Krapino smo odšli čez mejni prehod Rogatec. Na voljo do Krapine imate staro cesto ali avtocesto...
Sama se vedno odločim za staro cesto, ker Krapina ni tako oddaljena, prav tako imate muzej kmalu na desni strani ceste, ko se pripeljete v mesto in veliko parkirišče na levi strani. Vsepovsod so usmerjevalne table, tako, da ne morete zgrešiti.

Location of prehistoric man

Vstopnina za otroke je 3,30€, za odrasle enkrat več. V muzeju je prepovedano slikati, zato žal nimam nobene fotografije...takrat še nisem kršila zakonov hehe...in dejansko je pravi raj za fotografe!
Preden odidete v muzej, si še ogledate kratek film, ki prikazuje pračloveka in njegovo družino, ter njihovo takratno življenje.
V muzeju ne prikazujejo samo pračloveka, ampak te dejansko popeljejo čisto na začetek od nastanka zemlje in vse do danes. Obdobja so odlično in izvirno predstavljena!! Predvsem je idealen za otroke, saj lahko dejansko vidijo in si lažje predstavljajo kako je bilo takrat. Kakšen organiziran osnovnošolski izlet ne bi bil slab!
Pot iz muzeja vas popelje na lokacijo, kjer so našli okostja pračloveka. Prav tako so vsepovsod  prikazane takratne živali v naravni velikosti.
Muzej je neverjetno lep in star komaj 5 let! Če ste ljubitelj tovrstne zgodovine vam ogled vsekakor priporočam in vam ne bo žal. Spletno stran si lahko ogledate TUKAJ.

Pot do najdišča / Path to the place where they found remainings

Neanderthal family




Sedaj se preusmerimo proti dvorcu Trakoščan. Če smo šli za Krapino desno, odidemo sedaj za Trakoščan levo. Tudi do dvorca imate vsepovsod usmerjevalne table, tako na regionalni cesti kot na avtocesti.
Pripeljemo se do parkirišča in plačilo parkirnine mislim, da je bilo 80 centov.
Vstopnina za otroke je 2€, za odrasle enkrat več. Tudi tukaj je prepovedano fotografiranje, ampak tokrat sem že bila kršilec zakonov...

Iz parkirišča / From the parking lot

Kolikor me spomin ne vara, so skoraj vse sobane odprte za javnost.
Dvorec na hodniku krasi ne tako stara fotografija in namreč našega predsednika Pahorja ter Jadranke Kosor. Očitno pomemben podatek.
Objekt je urejen do potankosti, tako zunaj kot znotraj, prav tako je urejena njegova širša okolica z jezerom, kjer je idealen razgled na dvorec in lokacija za mirno preživljanje časa.
Sobane dejansko niso bile preveč nakičene, kar je značilno za mnoge dvorce, tako da sem bila pozitivno presenečena.
Dvorec so drugače imeli v lasti Monikini in Vaskini predniki. Glede na to, da mi Monika vedno pravi, da sem kot član družine, bi mi naziv baronica Adrijana kar ustrezal.
Trakoščan velja za enega izmed najlepših gradov na Hrvaškem in seveda opravičuje svoj sloves, tako da vam tudi ta ogled izredno priporočam. Njihovo spletno stran si lahko ogledate TUKAJ.


Borut, Jadranka in baronica / Baroness











Če še vedno nimate dovolj, lahko še par evrov oz. kun pustite malo naprej od Krapine v Zaprešiču v Roses outlet...Če že boste ravno tam, solate z lignji ne priporočam...razen če imate radi kuhane lignje..



ENGLISH VERSION:

Some ideas for the roadtrip... 
Museum of the Krapina Neanderthal and Trakoščan were two different trips. But regardless of the distance I recommend viewing the same day. 
We crossed border at Rogatec to get to Krapina.You can choose between old road or highway to get there ... 
I always choose the old road, because Krapina is not so far away, also you have soon a museum on the right side of the road when you drive into the city and a large parking lot on the left side. Everywhere are routing table so you can't get lost.

Entrance for children is € 3.30 for adults € 6,60. In the museum is forbidden to take pictures, so unfortunately I do not have any photos ... I was a good child back then :P ...  
and actually is a real paradise for photographers! 
Before you enter the museum, you watch a short film that shows early man and his family and their life at that time. 
The museum does not only show the Neanderthal, but it  actually takes you from the very beginning of the formation of the earth and until today. Presentation is excellent and original !! 
The path from the museum takes you to a location where they found the skeleton of prehistoric man. You can also see prehistoric animals in natural size. 
The museum is incredibly beautiful and is barely 5 years old! If you are a fan of this kind of history I definitely recommend it and you will not regret. Website can be found HERE.

Now lets go towards the mansion Trakoščan. If we went to Krapina right, we have go now left for  Trakoščan. Everywhere are routing tables, both on the regional road as on highway so you can't get lost. I paid for the parking around 80 cents. 
Entrance for children is € 2 for adults € 4. Once again, it's forbidden to take pictures, but this time I was braking the law...

As far as I can remember, nearly all chambers were open to the public. In the mansions hallway is not so old photo with our president Borut Pahor and Jadranka Kosor. Obviously, an important figure. 
The mansion is furnished to the last detail, inside, outside and its wider surroundings of the lake, where is great view of the mansion and the location for spending some a quiet time. 
Rooms were actually not too shabby, which is typical for many mansions, so I was positively surprised. 
This mansion used to belong to my friends Monika and Vaskini ancestors. Monika always tells me  that I am like a member of the family, so I could get used to the name Baroness Adrijana. It sounds great :P ! 
Trakoščan is considered one of the most beautiful castles in Croatia and of course it justifies its reputation, so I highly recommend this tour. Their website can be viewed HERE.

365 dni pomladi v spalnici..../ 365 days of spring in bedroom...

Končno sem zaključila z nočnimi omaricami! Predolgo se je vleklo! Vse kar traja več kot 3 dni je že kriza!
Z Moniko sem ponovno bila v Velenju in če sem tam, je obvezen obisk v Centru ponovne uporabe.
Tudi tokrat sem našla nekaj, kar bom preoblekla! Nočne omarice!

Before / After

Delo je potekalo tako:



Barvo fuksije je mešana po naročilu v trgovini Spekter pri Žalcu.
Barva je hitro sušeča....
Še en nasvet za lažje čiščenje oz. nečiščenje....

Nasvet: posodo oblecite s plastično vrečko in jo po končanem barvanju enostavno odstranite.
Tip: use plasic bag for the container and in the end simply remove the bag. No cleaning!!

Prvi in drugi nanos / First and second layer

Predalnike sem oblekla v blago in seveda moja prva izbira je trgovina Gloripops.




Vstavim predalnike na svojo mesto in imamo flower power nočne omarice!

Flower power!

Tudi iz iverke lahko ustvarimo lepe stvari, čeprav je delo malce težje. Les je le les!
In imamo pomlad vse dni v letu v naši spalnici!

Pomlad 365 dni na leto / Spring 365 days a year

ENGLISH VERSION: 

I finally ended nightstands! Everything that takes longer than 3 days is already a crisis for me! 
I was with Monika in Velenje and if I'm there, it's a must to visit the Centre re-use. 
Once again, I found something that I want to change! Nightstands!

Color fuchsia was custom mixed in Spekter in Žalcu. 
Another tip for easy cleaning  ....

I put fabric on the drawers and of course, my first choice is a shop called  Gloripops. 
I insert the drawers in their place and we have flower power nightstand!

Even with chipboard can we create beautiful things, even though the work is a little harder. Wood is still a wood! And we have spring all year long in our bedroom!

Naravno sredstvo proti klopom za hišne ljubljenčke..../ Natural prevention against ticks for your pet!

Spet je prišel tisti čas, ko nam naši štirinožci domov nosijo klope. Kdor ima hišne ljubljenčke tako ve, koliko stanejo ampule in ovratnice. Učinkujejo zelo slabo in še nevarni so za zdravje živali.
Nekaj časa nazaj sem pa zasledila naravno zaščito in sedaj jo že uporabljam en mesec za mojo razvajeno črno zgago.

Moj razvajeni črni hudič.../ My spoiled black devil...

En mesec ga že škropim z jabolčnim kisom! Navaden jabolčni kis! Škropim ga na 2-3 dni in v enem mesecu je prinesel klopa samo 1x! Pa še to zaradi tega, ker sem ga pozabila poškropiti!
Embalažo za škropilo lahko dobite v kitajski trgovini.

Apple cinder vinegar against ticks for pets!

Vonja ne marajo, zato pričakujte, da boste mačka / psa lovili po hiši. Sama ga največ poškropim po vratu, ker se tam najraje obesijo klopi in nato s prsti ali krtačo razčešem, da se kis porazdeli še drugod. Pazite, da ga ne poškropite po očeh ali glavi! Raje si kis poškropite po dlaneh in nato lepo porazdelite, tako imate večji nadzor. In brez skrbi, maček / pes ne bo imel vonja po kisu. Obvezno ponovite na 2-3 dni!


ENGLISH VERSION: 

Once again is that time when our four-legged carry ticks to our homes. Anyone who has a pet knows how much ampoules and collars costs. The effect is very bad and also dangerous for animal health. 
I found natural protection and now I already use this method for one month for my spoiled black devil.
One month he has been sprayed with apple vinegar! Simple apple cider vinegar! I sprayed the cat  2-3 days and in one month he has brought tick only once! And only because I forgot to spray him!

They don't like the smell, so expect that you will chase your cat / dog around the house. I spray a good amount on the neck, because you can always find ticks there and then use your fingers or a brush to spread the vinegar elsewhere. Be careful not to spray into the eyes or head!  
And don't worry, your cat / dog will not have the smell of vinegar. Repeat in 2-3 days!

Hitra slana sirova pita..../ Fast salty cheese pie...

Pito sem jedla drugič. Prvič je nastala brez moje pomoči, vendar sem bila tako navdušena nad njo, da sem se odločila, da tokrat zraven pomagam. Seveda brez fotoaparata ne gre!

Hitra sirova pita / Fast cheese pie

Za pito potrebujemo:
  • vlečeno testo
  • 500 g skute
  • kislo smetano (majhen lonček)
  • 4 jajca (+1 za preliv)

  • 2 dcl radenske

Sestavine (Hofer) / Ingredients

Rumenjake in beljake ločimo. Skupaj zmešamo rumenjake, skuto, kislo smetano, 1 dcl radenske, pecilni prašek in malo soli.


Dodamo sneg iz beljakov in umešamo.


Pekač namažemo z oljem in položimo prvi list listnatega testa.


Listnato testo raztrgamo na manjše (ali večje ni važno) kose.


Kose testa namakamo v zmes in položimo v pekač.






Po vrhu pokrijemo z listnatim testom, ter premažemo (1 jajca+ malo olja+ 1 dcl radenske).


Pekač damo v pečico (200°C) in pečemo približno pol urce.
Ko je pečeno, pito pokrijemo z mokro krpo.


Ekola, hitra in enostavna sirova pita! Aja in dobra tudi!! Sama bi še dodala brokoli ali lososa ali svežo špinačo, a kaj ko ne marajo vsi v hiši takih zadev! Pa dober tek!!



 ENGLISH VERSION:

For pie we need:
  •  dough
  • 500 g of cottage cheese
  • sour cream (small cup)
  • 4 eggs (+1 for dressing) 
  • 1 baking powder
  • 2 ounces of mineral water
We separate yolks and whites. Mix together the egg yolks, cottage cheese, sour cream, 1 dl of mineral water, baking powder and a little salt.
Add the egg whites and mix all together.
Brush a baking tray with oil and place the first sheet of puff pastry.
Tear pastry into smaller (or larger doesn't matter) pieces.
Soak the pieces of dough in the mixture and place in a baking dish.
Cover the top with pastry and spread it with mixture of 1 egg + a little oil + 1 dl of mineral water.
Place baking dish in the oven (200 ° C) and bake for about half an hour. 
When it's baked, cover the pie with a wet cloth.
And here you have quick and easy cheese pie! Oh, and also good !! I would have added broccoli or salmon or fresh spinach, but someone doesn't like this kind of things in our house!
And bon appetit!

KALI sejem urbanega vrtnarjenja Topolšica... / KALI urban gardening fair Topolšica...

Danes je bil v Topolšici težko pričakovani sejem Kali. Prvič jim je zagodlo vreme, je pa zato danes bila sreča na njihovi strani.
Za sejem sem po naključju izvedela v Velenju v Centru ponovne uporabe, sama jih sicer imenujem Center nostalgije...ah ja, lepi mladi časi. Najbolj sem bila presenečena, ko sem zagledala isti stol na sejmu, katerega sem tudi sama preuredila kakšne 3 tedne nazaj. Moj 50 let stari stol pa izgleda nekako TAKO.
Za sejem so bile nastavljene luštne usmerjevalne table, zato ga ni bilo mogoče zgrešiti.
Na moje veselje je bilo veliko razstavljalcev, ki so mojstri svoje stroke in sami delajo čudovite izdelke! Domišljija + ročna spretnost = ubijalska kombinacija! V pozitivnem smislu seveda...
Razstavljalci pa same pozitivne dušice! Super je bilo malo pokramljati z vami in fotografirati vaša edinstvena ročna dela!

Predstavljene so bile glinene posode Olla ampak sem  predstavitev žal zamudila. Priznam, sem ena tistih ljudi, ki pozabi zaliti rože...Plus tega smo na sončni legi 13 ur na dan, tako da kombinacija sonca in moje pozabljivosti je rezultat klavrnih rož / zelišč...in te lonce si bom kupila! So kot ustvarjene za mojo pozabljivost! In da ne omenjam kako dekorativno poživi gredo!

Kot stalna stranka Zale, sploh nisem vedela, da je zraven hotela še keramika Bahor.
Njihovi izdelki!! Brez besed sem ostala! Tako blizu Celja, pa nisem vedela, da imamo tako nore izdelke iz keramike! In umivalnik! In luč! In tisti ročaji za predala! Navdušena zelo!
Res super ideje za rojstne dneve! Ponavadi ljudje ne maramo kakšne keramične posode za rojstne dneve, ampak teh lubenic bi se pa razveselila!
Ker me že nekaj časa zanima, kako se dejansko ustvarijo takšni izdelki, sem pustila svoj mail, da me bodo obveščali o delavnicah. Še eno znanje več! Jupi!!
Imam pa eno zeloooo veliko pripombo in grajo!! Zelo sem jezna na vas, da vas nisem videla na sejmu Flora v Celju in bi še prej izvedela ne samo jaz, ampak tudi drugi, da imate takšne lepe izdelke!!
Drugo leto pa prosim, da se udeležite sejma, da popestrite prostor! Vaši izdelki bi šli za med!! Letos sem bila na sejmu po dolgem času in sem bila dobesedno šokirana nad ponudbo! Moje vtise si lahko preberete TUKAJ.

No, da ne bom samo pisala, si oglejte fotografije iz sejma KALI, pod sliko je ime ustvarjalnice, tako da kliknite nanj in se vam bo odprla njihova spletna stran.

ENGLISH VERSION:

Today it was a long awaited Fair Kali in Topolšica. The first time it was cancelled because of the weather, but today in was luck on their side.
For fair, I accidentally found out in Velenje in the Centre of re-use items  otherwise I call center of nostalgia ... ah yeah, beautiful young times. I was suprised that I saw the same cahir that I renovated only 3 week ago and my chair looks like THIS.

For the Fair were set cute routing tables, so the fair couldn't be missed. 
To my luck there were many exhibitors, who are masters of their profession and they are doing wonderful products! Imagination + hand skills = killer combination! In a positive sense, of course ... 
Exhibitors were such a positive souls! It was great to chat with all of you and to take some pictures of your unique handwork!

There was a presentation of the terracotta pots Olla but I unfortunately missed the presentation. I confess, I am one of those people who forget to water the flowers ... Plus, we have a sunny position, 13 hours a day, so that the combination of sun and my forgetfulness is the result of miserable flower / herb pots ... and I'll buy this Olla pots! They are as created for my forgetfulness! And not to mention how decorative they are!

As a regular customer of wellness Zala, I didn't know that it was next to the hotel ceramics Bahor. Their products !! I was speechless! It's so near to Celje (my hometown), but I didn't know that we have such a crazy ceramic products! And the sink! And the lights! And those handles for drawers! Very beautiful!Really great ideas for birthdays! Usually people don't like ceramic dishes for birthdays, but these watermelons would made me happy!Since I would like to know how to actually create such products, I left my mail so they can inform me about the workshops. More knowledge! Hooray !!I do have one big criticism!! I am very angry with you that you weren't at the fair in Celje so the people could see such a beautiful products !!The second year I would ask you to attend the fair to spice up the space! Your products would be bestseller!! This year I was at the fair in a long time and I was literally shocked! You can read my impressions  HERE.

Take a look at the photos from the fair KALI, you can click on the name and it will open their website for amazing products.
