Há uns dois meses atrás decidi mudar a cor do sotão porque já estava cansada do cor-de-rosa. Utilizei o azul cristalino da Robiallac ( uma das cores do "Querido mudei a casa" ), porque ficava em harmonia com o hall e porque adoro azul. Assim, comecei de manhã cedo e quando o resto da família regressou a casa já estava tudo pronto e no sitio novamente. Querem acreditar ? Ninguém reparou na mudança de cor!! Um por um, subiram as escadas olharam em volta e perguntaram qual era a diferença? Gente distraída, certo?

A couple months ago I decided to change the attic color because I was tired of the color pink. I used the crystal blue of Robiallac (one of the colors of the "Dear I changed the house" a portuguese program), because it would be in harmony with the hall and because I love blue. So I started early in the morning and when the rest of the family returned home was already everything ready and in place again. Do you believe? No one noticed the color change !! One by one, up the stairs, looked around and asked what was the difference? Distracted, right?

Depois, andei a marinar as cores que queria para o sofá e experimentei vários padrões mas, como o sotão tem muita coisa, não podia ser um padrão muito vivo ou muito cheio, e também porque sei que me canso. Então com o tecido que sobrou de forrar o abatjour, fiz umas almofadinhas:
After, I studied the colors I wanted to the couch and tried various patterns but as the attic has a lot of things, could not be a very lively pattern or too busy, and also because I know I would get tired. So with the fabric left to line the Abatjour, I made some pillows:
