Zajtrk z Audrey... / Breakfast with Audrey...

Joj Audrey....Če bi vedela, da bom tako dolgo čakala na ta zajtrk bi ga raje prespala!

Ta naša Audrey je nastajala malo manj kot en mesec...Iz enega problema je nastal drug itd...No rezultat je pa za prave fashioniste in Audrey ljubitelje...

Before / After

Po priporočilu prodajalke sem vzela že namešano rdečo barvo, seveda prekleto drago plačala in sicer od slovenske firme...no, nikoli več!
Prvi problem je bil sigurno ta, da sem na lepo sončno popoldne barvala in očitno so se vse leteče žuželke iz Celja in okolice ravno tisti dan našle pri nas doma za hišo. Lahko si mislite kako zgleda 1000 črnih še migajočih žuželk na sveži rdeči barvi ne!?
In barva sušeča par dni...


Počasi se spravim na predalnike. Odločila sem se, da bom zamenjala ročaje in sicer za enojne. Kupim nove ročaje in glej ga zlomka prekratki vijaki, gremo nazaj v trgovino...


Ker sem se odločila, da tokrat na predalnikih ne bom imela žuželk, sem barvala v garaži.
Po parih urah odidem pogledat kako se suši in me čaka novo presenečeje. Tisti dan je namreč nenormalno pihal veter in se je ves prah prijel na barvo! In gremo ponovno vse na novo...
Par dni kasneje pobarvam ročaje in namestim našo Audrey...


In končno sem zaključila s predalnikom. Priznam, da sem norela zaradi tega, ampak smo očitno na pravi poti, če ne ne bi bilo toliko ovir...
Audrey dolžna si mi ne samo zajtrk ampak tudi kosilo in večerjo pri Tiffany-ju.
In ne spreglejte se druge prenovljene izdelke na Babičina skrinja!





ENGLISH VERSION: 

Audrey.... If I knew that I would waited so long for this breakfast I would prefer to sleep!
I finished our Audrey a little less than in one month ... From one problem came another, etc ... But the result is for fashionistas and real Audrey lovers.

Following the recommendation of a saler I took already mixed red, of course, damn expensive and from Slovenian company ... never again! 
The first problem: It was on a nice sunny afternoon and apparently  all flying insects from Celje and the surrounding area had to meet behind our house. You can imagine how it looks 1000 black and still wiggling insects on fresh red paint !? 
And the paint was drying for a few days ...

Next on the list were the drawers. I decided that I would replace the handles, namely for one hole. I bought new handles and the screws were too short  and I had to go back to the store ...

I decided that this time I will not have any insects, I painted in the garage. 
After a few hours I went to see how is the paint drying and  a new suprise. That day was abnormal windy and the dust sticked to the color! And we go again... 
Couple days later I colored handles and put on our Audrey ...

And finally I finished with project. I admit that I was going crazy because of this, but we are clearly on the right track, if not there would be so many obstacles ... 
Audrey you owe me not only breakfast but also lunch and dinner at Tiffany's.
And do not forget other renovated products on Grandmas chest!

Domači vosek za lase.../ Homemade non toxic hair wax...


Danes je bil pa res en produktiven dan! Naredila ogromno! Tudi ta vosek, ki ga že delam en mesec...

Domači vosek za lase / Homemade hair wax

Za en lonček voska potrebujemo:
  • čebelji vosek
  • kokosovo olje
  • eterična olja

Sestavine / Ingredients

 1/4 voska sem sem narezala na manjše konce, pustila, da se stopi in dodala 2 veliki žlici kokosovega olja. Na koncu sem dodala par kapljic eteričnih olj po svojem okusu.
Za bolj oljnato varianto lahko dodate eno čajno žličko olivnega olja.
Za bolj mehki vosek je potrebno dodati več kokosovega olja, za bolj trdega pa več čebeljega voska.

Vse sestavine zmešaj / Mix all ingredients together

Zmes vlijem v embalažo. Ena embalaža je bila od bonbonov, kar je odlična in kompaktna varianta za potovanja, večja pa je od kreme, tako, da ne mečite stran praznih embalaž! Ponavadi pridejo prav.

Za doma in potovanje / For home and traveling

Moj poskusni zajček je bila mami. Moram rečt, da ji je pričeska odlično stala. Ker so vse sestavine naravne, obstaja možnost, da lasje ne bodo tako dolgo "stoječi" kot z umetnimi sestavinami. No zato so pa mini embalažice odlične za morebitne popravke.

All natural

ENGLISH VERSION:

Today was really a productive day! I made a lot! Even the wax, which I wanted to made a month ago.


For one cup of wax you need:
  • beeswax
  • coconut oil
  • essential oils
I cuted 1/4 wax into smaller pieces, let it melt and add 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Finally, I added a few drops of essential oils. 
For more oily variant you can add one teaspoon of olive oil. 
For a soft wax it is necessary to add more of coconut oil, the more hard wax you need to add more beeswax.

I poured mixture into a container. One of the packages was from the candy, which is an excellent and compact variant for the journey, the bigger container was from the cream, so do not throw away empty containers! They usually come in handy.

I experimented on my mum. Not bad!! Since are all natural ingredients, it is possible that the hair will not be as long "standing" than with those store products. That's why are those mini containers excellent for any corections.

Plitvička jezera in Bihać... / Plitvice lake and Bihac...

Raj na zemlji...to je drugo ime za Plitvička jezera. Kdor je že bil tam ve, da opravičuje tak sloves.
Na Plitvička jezera in Bihać smo odšli na tridnevni izlet v lastni režiji. Turistične agencije ponujajo enodnevni ogled Plitvic. Seveda lahko obdelate jezera v enem dnevu! Divjali boste kot nori brez počitka in nog ne boste čutili tri dni. Če si želite ogledati jezera konkretno, zgornji in spodnji del, potem priporočam dvodnevni izlet.

V kolikor me spomin ne vara smo odšli mimo Karlovca in Slunja. Med potjo sem bila šokirana ob pogledu na zapuščene in preluknjane hiše, ki jih je bilo ogromno. Prvič videla kaj takega. Sem globoko v komfortni coni očitno.

Prenočišča v Plitvicah niso ravno poceni, ampak več vas je, ceneje je. Gostišč ob cestah je prav tako ogromno in po večini terase polno zasedene. Zip line-a nimajo več oz. saj takrat ga ni bilo, tako, da žal ga nisem preizkusila.
Parkirišče v Plitvicah je bilo okoli 1€ na uro, dvodnevna  študentska vstopnica je bila 23€. Pravkar sem preverila današnje cene in je dvodnevna za odrasle v glavni sezoni 37€. Ufff pošteno!!!
V ceno imate vštet vlakec in ladjo.
Obvezen je nakup plitvičkega štrudla! Noro dober! Cena je bila okoli 2€.

Pri domačinu se še pozanimam...Plitvička jezera ne morejo poplaviti.
Opaziti je bilo nekaj staršev z vozički in ni najbolj priporočljivo.  Če vam pa te poti ne predstavljajo problem in prerivanje na polnem vlakcu, potem pa lahko samo rečem mirne živce in good luck.
Dovolj pisanja, gremo na fotografije!

Prvi dan: zgornji del Plitvic...First day: upper part of Plitvice









Drugi dan: spodnji del Plitvic / Second day: lower part of Plitvice









The best Plitvička štrudla

Zadnji dan je bil rezerviran za Bihać. Prvič v Bosni!
Bihać smo si želeli samo ogledati, ampak seveda pri nas ne gre tako gladko!
Ustavimo se pri mošeji in z zanimanjem ogledujemo njegovo okolico. Kmalu pristopi moški, ki nam razloži kako poteka ramadan in nas povabi v mošejo k muftiju.
Mufti nam je razložil malo o koranu, ter nas učil pravilne molitve. Dobro, da nisem bila v krilu!
Nad njim sem bila pozitivno presenečena saj nisem pričakovala, da hodi na rock koncerte in da pozna pesmi skupine Red hot chilli pepers. Za nameček se je želel še slikati z nami in je spraševal po naših Facebook profilih. Napredno nimaš kaj!
Malo si še ogledamo mesto, privoščimo sladoled za par centov in seveda burek!!! Mmmm!! Pravi mojstri!!
Sledila je par kilometrska kolona pri Zagrebu, ki smo se jo izognili in odšli po regionalni cesti. Hiter ogled še West gate-a in zadnji postanek v Rogaški Slatini.
Slik iz Bihaća imam zelo malo...No sedaj pa vse nadoknadim vse za nazaj in fotografiram 3x preveč...










ENGLISH VERSION:

Heaven on earth ... this is the second name for the Plitvice Lakes. Anyone who has been there knows that is true.
We went to Plitvice Lakes and Bihać on a three-day trip on your own. Tourist agencies offer one-day tour of Plitvice. Of course you can see the lakes in one day! You will walk around like crazy without rest and you will not feel your legs for three days. If you want to see the lakes in peace, the upper and lower part, then I recommend a two-day trip.
If memory serves me, we went past Karlovac and Slunj. During the journey, I was shocked to see a lot of  abandoned and with gun holes houses. First seen anything like this. I'm deep in the comfort zone clearly.Accommodations in Plitvice are not exactly cheap. The restaurans are always full. Zip-line was out of order so unfortunately I have not tried.Parking in Plitvice was about € 1 per hour, two-day student ticket was € 23. I just checked today's prices, and the two-day adult in high season entrance is € 37. Not cheap!
You have to purchase Plitvice strudel! It was sooo good! The price was about € 2.In the ticket  you have included train and ship. 

There has been some people with baby strollers and is not the most good idea. If you do not see a problem in this kind of paths and crouded train, then I can only say calm your nerves and good luck.Enough writing, let's see the photos!


The last day was reserved for Bihac. First time in Bosnia!We only want to see Bihac but of course with us things don't go so smoothly!We stoped at the mosque and looked around. Soon, a man approaches us and explain us about  Ramadan and invited us to the mosque to see the Mufti.Mufti explained us a little about the Koran and teach us the correct prayer.
I was positively surprised because I did not expectthat the Mufti likes rock concerts and that he is familiar to the Red hot chilli pepers songs. On top of it he wanted to take pictures with us and was asking for our Facebook profiles.
We looked around the town, bought ice cream for a few cents, and of course burek !!! Mmmm !! The real masters !!I do not have a lot of pictures from Bihac ... But now I am making three times too many pictures.

Domača zobna pasta (samo 3 sestavine)... / Homemade toothpaste (only 3 ingredients)...

Ali imam samo jaz takšno srečo, da mi vedno zmanjka kakšna stvar, ko že imaš polno drugega dela?
Tokrat mi je zmanjkalo zobne paste.
O pozitivnih učinkih kokosovega olja in o negativnih učinkih flourida in o zdravju in o boleznih se mi ne da pisati, saj o tem že pišejo in govorijo vsepovsod! Razen če vneto berete revije z trači! Tega tam res ne boste zasledili, boste pa zato vedeli, katera zvezdnica ima celulit!

Domača zobna pasta.../ Homemade toothpaste...

Zobno pasto je zelo enostavno narediti in potrebujemo samo 3 sestavine:
  • kokosovo olje 
  • soda bikarbona
  • eterično olje (moja izbira meta)


Sestavine / Ingredients

Kokosovo olje in soda sta v razmerju 1:1 ter par kapljic olja. Vse sestavine zmešamo skupaj. Sama sem izbrala eterično olje mete, ker imate super svež občutek in zadah.


Vse sestavine zmešamo / Mix all ingredients together

In to je to! Imamo domačo zobno pasto. Preprosto kajne?
Edini problem je, ker v teh vročih mesecih nastane zobna pasta bolj tekoča.



 ENGLISH VERSION:

Is it just me that I  always run out of one thing when you already have a lot of other things to do? 
This time, I ran out of toothpaste. 
The positive effects of coconut oil and the negative effects of fluoride and about health and diseases I do not want to write, knowing that they write and talk abot this everywhere! Unless you read the gossip magazines! You won't read about this however, you will know which starhas got cellulite!

 Toothpaste is very easy to do and you need 3 ingredients:
  •  coconut oil
  •   baking soda
  •  essential oil (my choice mint)
Coconut oil and baking soda are in a ratio of 1: 1 and a few drops of oil. All ingredients are mixed together. I chosed the essential oil of mint, because you have great fresh feel and smell.
And that's it! You've got homemade toothpaste. Simple isn't it?The only problem is zhat toothpaste gets more soft and "watery" in this hot months.

Prenova stolov: delavnica v Kamrici... / Chair renovation: workshop in Chamber...

Včeraj je potekala delavnica v Kamrici v Vojniku na temo prenove starih stolov. Prikazala sem tri tehnike, kako lahko "odsluženi" stari stol prenovimo v unikatne izdelke.

Delavnica v Kamrici / Workshop in Chamber

Imela sem srečo, saj so en stol pobarvali pred mojim prihodom, zato sem imela manj dela, tako, da hvala lepa za trud. Začetni in končni produkt, da izgleda tako:




Drugega stola se lahko spominjamo iz naših šol ali obiskov pri zdravniku.
Začetni in končni produkt izgleda tako:




Ker sem bila v Kamrici ravno v času praznovanja rojstnega dne malih nadobudnežev iz 2. razreda, so z navdušenjem opazovali moje delo. Pohvala in navdušenje otrok namreč pomeni največ, saj so otroci iskreni in brez dlake na jeziku, kar pomeni, da smo na pravi poti.
Hkrati bi se rada zahvalila Taji, ter celotnemu kolektivu Kamrice za gostoljubnost! Hvala za palačinko, hvala za cedevito, hvala za kavo in hvala za pomoč.

Idealen prostor za praznovanje rojstnega dne
The perfect place for birthday celebrations

Naša stara jablana je ponovno bogato obrodila. Drevo je staro okoli 40 let. V takšnih stvareh se kaže čar starih časov, časov, ki se jih vsi radi spominjamo in nas popelje nazaj v brezskrbne čase in otroštvo. 
Prav je, da ohranjamo takšne spomine in zgodovino, ter na podlagi takšnih želja, počasi svoje barve dobiva tudi naš težko pričakovani projekt. Naša Babičina skrinja
Verjamemo, da bo tudi Babičina skrinja bogato obrodila kot naše staro drevo, saj nam kaže, da nas sodobni produkti vedno znova razočarajo, medtem pa pozabljene stare stvari še vedno uspevajo leto za letom. Ampak jih ne cenimo.
Babičina skrinja si bo prizadevala za racionalno uporabo starih lesenih stvari in jim dala novo življenje v lepši luči. Vabljeni k vaši Babičini skrinji!

Naša bogata stara jablana z našim jabolkom
Our old and full apple tree with our apple

ENGLISH VERSION: 

Yesterday's workshop was in Vojnik in the store called Chamber. I renovated two old chairs. I showed three techniques, how to turn old chair in unique products.

Since I was in Chamber at a time of celebration of kinds from the 2nd class they were excited to watch my work. Excitement and enthusiasm of children means the most, because children are honest and outspoken, which means that we are on the right track. 
At the same time, I would like to thank Taja and the entire staff of Chamber for hospitality! Thanks for pancake, thanks for cedevita, thanks for the coffee and thank you for your help.

Our old apple tree is full again. The tree is about 40 years old. In such things you can see the charm of old times, the times that we all remember and love and takes us back to the times of carefree childhood. We need to preserve these memories and history and on the basis of such desire our long awaited project is almost here. Our Grandma's chest. 
We believe that our Grandma's chest will be rich as our old tree, because it shows us that modern products always disappoints us, while forgotten old things still grow year after year. But we do not appreciate it. 
Grandma's chest will strive for rational use of old wooden things and give them a new life in a beautiful way. You are invited to your Grandma's chest!
