Today's Palette / CaipiStraws +PatternSeries

After long time without any post (I'm really busy with college tasks, work and family issues lately...=/) here's at least a quick new Colour Inspiration for you. ^^ This time the trigger was cleaning up after a nice TV-night at home to which we treated ourselves with a glass of self-made Caipirinha. ;) When I threw the rests of lime bits and colorful straws out of the glass into the sink the other day, it looked so nice, I had to do some Copaso ;).

Wood needs to be naked...

     Some days ago I cracked my teapot, having the freshly boiled water spilled all over our kitchen counter. Worse things happen of course, since it was just water, BUT our counter is of barely treated (we oiled it roughly just once) beechwood. It soaks water quite fast and already has lots of coves, rifts and stains. That reminded me on how urgently we wanted to fix that kitchen problem - but somehow I don't really want to. I like that used look it has gotten.
    Flaws here and there, patina and purity... don't you think, too, that this gives the material a certain honesty and more corporeal, palpable feeling of reality?
I know there're options to conserve woods, without influencing their natural look too much.
But still, I wanna see my wood counter live and wither. ;)

Impermanence is so much more exciting than pretended immortality!

   These are some adorable examples of patina-permitted wood used in Interiors.
