50's ads, That's our new "Modern Life" collection inspiration... Theirs nothing more naive and sweet than those ads that reflect past world war 2 need for a better, beautiful world. We used those elements on our collection, feeling need to make a better world for our babies and children in those Modern life, other than the ones we see around us. On this matter, We would like to send our Love to all children all over the world. bouji and nouna have lately donated to UNICEF to help the Haiti children, and would keep help children elsewhere.
So, it's been a while that we're not so happy about our banner and avatar, and we felt that this is the time for a change... It took us a while to do it but we did! all by ourself! We just love the new look, and the sweet painting is Original ours! Go and take a look, tell us what you think!
So this is where it's all happening, a good size room in our home that was declared as our studio!
We admit, we're not a very tidy people, so most of the things we've got are kept away from sight... On this room you can find everything you'll ever dreamt off... naturally all of the items we finished are also here but except for them you can also find ribbons, buttons, vintage and new fabrics, some fine art and folk ornaments, and books, lots of book that inspire us all the time.... This room is our favorite one in our house and for several reasons. The most important one is that we filled it with all of the items that we love and inspire us to create:
On our studio / room you just can't miss some original paintings drawn by bouji & nouna creator - Inbar Lahav Elgarisi.
The one on the right is kind of a self portrait of her with bouji when he was a baby...
The one on the left was drawn while she was pregnant with nouna...
we keep saying that she's inspired by her children, so here a great example of how they inspire her...
We LOVE those drawing and wish she was doing some more of them...
for some resone she just can't find the time... :)
We always have some great ideas, all the time, while doing other things... that's why we have so many notebooks on our desk... and those are just the ones we don't use right now. We're having notebooks all over our home and on our bag too so if we'll have a good idea he won't go away.... As we said before, we're not a very organized people... so we don't have an organized inspiration wall (if someone has a tip on that one we would love to hear it...). This is our idea for inspiration board. Full of THANK YOU notes we received worldwide, fabric swatches; some notes we wrote to ourselves ECT. We don't know if this is what the one who invented the inspiration had in mind but it work for us, so... it's fine with us.
Inbar's mom, our grandma, inspired her to start the whole bouji & nouna adventure... so it's only natural that some of the items here will be hers.
She an artist at heart and since she retired, she's doing so fan mosaic art... here an example that being used in our room... we just love the colors on this item, made out of green and blue glass...
And also we can't forget the arts and crafts book collection she gave us that fill us with inspiration just by looking at them! It's not the whole of them, sadly because of a lake in space some of them are still in boxes, but we love them just as much...
