Creative ways of using old wine bottles at home


I've recently become more interested in environment and generally healthier lifestyle, so I've decided to present to you this idea for the reuse of old bottles of wine. Many people would say that the use of a few glass bottles would not affect particularly on global pollution of the planet, but if we consider that each of the 500 million citizens of the countries in the European Union throw around 513 kg garbage per year, even those 2-3 kg trash saved would be very important.
Let's move away from the the environmental topics and look at the ways in which we can use old glass bottles. I prefer glass for storing water, because unlike plastic the glass is not harmful and does not give specific taste of the water. Also from the aesthetic point of view glass stands a much better on the table. A cleared glass bottle can be used as a vase, lamp or even bookshelf. Or as in my case, for storing my oat breakfast. While most people are using jars for this purpose, I find bottles for unconventional and an interesting option.






What about you? Do you find this way practical? Would you use it in your home? What are your ways for more environmentally friendly life?

IKEA - The Cheap Offers

IKEA has finally opened in Bulgaria and now we have the oportunity to buy the products, which the Swedish company offers. Many people were eager to see it open, but most of them (including me) were disappointed, because prices did not fulfill our expectations. IKEA has a worldwide reputation for offering quality items at affordable prices, but not as accessible to Bulgarian pocket. However, in the store can be found fairly cheap and decorative furniture. The images below show some of the very cheap things I've liked.




















































 These are the things that I think everyone can afford. № 3;4;7;9;12;13;14;16;17;18; - I personally would buy as soon as I can.

Last Night - beautiful interior in a beautiful movie

I have recently watched the movie "Last Night", which apart from the smart script and good acting impressed me with the great decor in the home of the main characters. The spaces, where the characters in the movie live, are very important, because they help creating the movie personalities. It has always been interesting to me to notice stylish interiors in films, because unlike the beautiful images we see in magazines and the Internet, they seem to have more personality – such as placed books here and there or the selection of the works of art. In that film was shown one apartment, that I think everyone would fell in love with. To me personally my favorite is the kitchen in the industrial chic style. I like how almost all of its functional part is taken by  the large kitchen island, and that there are no traditional upper cabinets, which in turn are replaced by large windows and walls with painted in white bricks.




Here are some other apartments in the movie.



 
I hope you have enjoyed the images. What about you - have you seen the movie, if so share your impressions of it.
