I love a peachy color and this fabulous Zen home in California’s Mojave Dessert attracted me. 

Isn’t this pretty?

Their hot tub has a floral design floating on top. Wow.

The serene library/music room has lots of plants, books, and a collection of vintage record albums.

The deep terra cotta living room exudes exotic, Zen design with touches of Native American patterns.

The home has a very large Mexican style kitchen with a lovely arched architectural feature by the dining table.

The master bedroom has a wall of built-in niches and a round window that is also a lounge.

The ensuite bath has sliding glass doors to a patio.

Love the deep coral color of this room.

This guest room has a softer, more tranquil color scheme.

The 2nd guest room has a more contemporary look. 

Beautiful tile and tub in the guest bath.

Or, if one prefers, there’s the option of taking a bath in the copper tub on the patio.

Happy Birthday Baby: Something that has been sitting in my documents with Bishop until the mood struck to post it . 18+ fluff, maybe smut later. Married people. birthday celebration and time together .747 words.

You had just been told to meet him at the clubhouse and to pack a light bag that would fit on his bike with things for the weekend . So you had done that and had parked your truck in the usual slot where it would be safe while you were away. You walked your Rottweiler puppy to where EZ’s trailer was and smiled when the door opened and Sadie began to play with his pitbull mix Gypsy. You knew she would be in good hands here and be more than likely spoiled as well.

Then you walked to the front door and inside. He greeted you with a hug and a kiss. “ Sweetheart purple is your color.”

You smiled. “ Thank you mi rey.”

You heard him talk to Taza and Hank for a few minutes and then he came over and wrapped an arm around your waist. “ Now you have my full attention.”

Then you went outside to his bike and he took your bag and helped you onto the back.

“ Is Sadie all settled?”

“ She was already playing with one of Gypsys toys when I left her,”

“ Good,”

You put your helmet on and moved into your usual position against his back with your hands around his waist.

“ So where are we going for this long weekend?”

“ If I told you it wouldn’t be a surprise now would it .”

“ Well then I will just let you do this for me.”

He laughed a little . “ Thank you .”

A few hours later you stopped at a little hole in the wall type Mexican place to eat a light lunch. You shared some fish tacos and steak fajitas from each other’s plates . You finished after a while and then Bishop said “ Another hour and we’ll stop.”

You smiled. “ All right so far this has been amazing just being with you .”

He kissed your cheek. “ I know querida , it’s been a while since we just went for a ride just the two of us away from all the shit back home .”

Your fingers played with his hair for a moment. “ You know that has never mattered to me, otherwise I would have backed out when I met you in Oakland, sure as hell wouldn’t be wearing your ring in Santo Padre right now.” You gently smacked his ass and heard that wonderful laugh .

You had missed it recently .

Then you felt the bike turn and you rode along a gravel road until you saw a small blue house at the end of a little trail. The bike stopped and you both got off of it.

Bishop got your bag and his and pulled a key out of his pocket to open the front door.

“ Welcome to our space for the weekend baby.”

You smiled. “ This is amazing , who does it belong to?”

“ This is Padrino’s rental property, right now it’s vacant since it’s changing to fall but he let me use it for your birthday weekend.”

“ Oh that’s so sweet. Remind me to make Marcus an apple pie when we get back home for a thank you .”

Then the two of you unpacked your things and found the big bathroom with a shower and large copper tub in it .

“ I feel like a bath after the road, do you want to join me ?”

Bishop gave you a certain smile. “ If you let me scrub your back hell yes.”

“ As if I would stop you .” You winked at him.

Then you went to get some comfortable things for after a bath and you found some scented bath salts and soaps under the sink that you liked and poured some under the running water.

You stepped in first slowly and turned on the IPod on the dock next to the tub . You were surprised when a mix of your favorite soft rock songs began to play. Then you felt the water move and Bishop got into the tub behind you. His hands pulled your hair up into a clip gently and he kissed your bare shoulder.

“ How is your birthday weekend so far ?”

“ Perfect, I��m making another trip around the sun while being in your arms. I couldn’t ask for more.”

He turned your face toward his and kissed your lips.

“ I love you Ana.”

“ I love you Obispo always.”

Miami Local Launching Tequila & Mezcal Brand in Jan 2020

Miami Native, Alexa Iacovelli, to Launch Tequila & Mezcal Brand in January of 2020

November 13, 2019 (Miami, Florida)— The little engine that could of cities who have adopted mega-watt growth in past decades is definitely Miami. Most of the important growth that knights The Magic City as such is as a result of trailblazing entrepreneurs and visionaries who have created important initiatives from within the heart of Miami. One of such enterprises is to be released with the launch of Encantadora Mexican Spirits. Founded by Miami native, Alexa Iacovelli, this brand of ultra-premium tequilas and mezcals promises to break the mold of what you thought your tequila or mezcal was supposed to taste like for its focus on authenticity and innovation. A permanent fixture within the community, Iacovelli is at the same time socialite and philanthropist, entrepreneur and world traveler, but always with her roots deeply embedded in the betterment of the city. Miami’s not seen a female native launch a tequila or mezcal product created from inception in the 305 and Iacovelli is proud to roll out her product launch in her hometown, first. But have no fear, neighboring cities, launches in Los Angeles, New York and Dallas will follow suit shortly thereafter. Promising to launch in step with the new year, Encantadora is sure to enchant.

Contact : Jilian Sanz, Jilian@encantadora.com

About the Founder

An enchantress in her own right, Alexa Iacovelli always had a way about her. People were drawn to her innate understanding of what she wanted and her matter-of-fact approach to making sure it got done. An arbiter of taste with a savvy business mind she quickly understood why her search for tequilas and mezcals that she enjoyed was often composed of struggled exercises in trial and error. Mainly error.

After realizing how many tequila and mezcal bottles she had hidden in suitcases, stashed on boats, and shipped to destinations across the globe because of a void in selection available on her extensive travels, she realized there was a serious deficiency in the market, despite the presence of thousands of brands worldwide. This lack of availability of truly premium products was a problem she was more than excited to remedy. She wouldn’t stop until she could create products that met her standards. Enter: Encantadora.

To really rise to the proverbial occasion, Encantadora had to be everything Alexa demanded of, well, everything. It had to be well made. Authenticity had to sit at the center of the creation process—no funny business. And it had to be innovative; forging new implementations of what was already a natural delight. There was no space for falling short. From a lifetime spent immersed in travel, the world over, she had a clear understanding of what made something great. What she didn’t quite understand was why everybody didn’t insist their brand live in that greatness. So the ex-Executive Vice President of her family’s manufacturing companies set out to manufacture some products of her own.

 She knew that in the saturated liquor industry there was no room for additional ordinary products, and was intrigued by the challenge of disrupting the monotonous marketplace by pushing the boundaries of industry norms. Clearly whatever was being done before wasn’t cutting it; so she set out to do it better, creating entirely innovative processes for distilling that would shatter the ceiling of previous production standards. All in the name of greatness, as always.

She put her knowledge of formula design to use and came up with a line of products that would shake up the spirits market with offerings that were quite literally enchanting. She spent extensive time in Mexico at the tequila and mezcal distilleries, ensuring personally that the authenticity was there. Within a year she had developed six, groundbreaking formulas of the highest level of quality and taste, using processes that were unexplored, and some of which had never been implemented before. Each product is unrivaled in its category; completely innovative, yet 100% authentic.

She chose the siren logo to symbolize the Encantadora (Enchantress), the perfect personification of the temptation, seduction, and rebellion her products elicit. And so the company was established and the brand vision was formed; ultra-premium mexican spirits made to fascinate and appease the avant-garde consumer.

About the Company

Encantadora brings to market a new line of authentic, innovative and ultra-premium Mexican spirits unlike anything else ever offered in the alcohol beverage industry; focusing specifically on tequila and mezcal. Encantadora will officially launch in January 2020 in Miami, FL, and will then consecutively launch in Los Angeles, New York City, and Dallas.

They have brought to life more health-conscious alternatives of their favorite spirits, while maintaining the highest quality, and creating new sophisticated flavor profiles. Their products stand alone based on taste and quality, but are also wholesome, functional, and exciting for the consumer; the product line speaks for itself.

Cristalino tequilas have been one of the fastest growing categories of tequila over the past few years, and Encantadora will be the first to bring a cristalino mezcal to market. As the only player in the game and the first to market, they own the cristalino mezcal category.

Their Blanco Electrolítico, Joven Cristalino Electrolítico, and Ultra-Añejo Electrolítico tequilas are the first ever spirits infused with electrolytes. In the Cristalino Electrolítico, they remove some components that can be attributed to causing hangovers and bloating, along with the color, through the use of a patent pending four-stage charcoal filtration technology.

Their Cafe Fino is the only coffee tequila that contains caffeine and no added sugar, calories, or artificial milk products, using only natural stevia and espresso. They have also created a matcha mezcal with an insanely smooth espadin base - a sugar free antioxidant blend that’s guilt free.

 About the Products

Encantadora provides ultra-premium Mexican spirits, produced through groundbreaking uses of physics and chemistry, to provide consumers with products that are completely innovative, yet 100% authentic. They don’t add any artificial ingredients, because the exceptional quality allows the products to stand on their own.

Encantadora’s 100% Maguey mezcals come from San Juan del Rio, located 1,100 meters above sea level. They are milled traditionally by tahona, cooked in underground ovens with wood and volcanic stones, fermented in cypress tubs, and are distilled in copper stills by master Isaías Martinez.

Encantadora’s tequilas are produced from 100% Blue Weber Agave in the highlands of Jalisco, giving them a very exotic flavor profile unlike the majority of tequilas which are produced in the lowlands.

The team at Encantadora was lucky enough to come across a man who has dedicated his life to studying one element, carbon, and who because of his incredibly narrow concentration is an expert in charcoal filtration. He has created a new way to filter liquors to cristalino which preserve the authenticity of the spirits, and his technology is currently patent-pending. This filtration system allows Encantadora to produce their incredibly complex and refined spirits by separating their tequilas and mezcals into sections based on molecular size, at which point they selectively remove specific sections they don’t think complement the profile they are looking to attain.

In the case of their two cristalino products, they remove only the color, and then combine the remaining sections, allowing them to preserve the original tastes and aromas picked up in the barrel-aging process. This is a stark contrast from other cristalino tequilas on the market, which use the same single-stage filtration to remove the color. The problem with this filtration is that the process is much harsher, and it strips the mixture of most of the pleasant tastes and aromas, which have to be artificially added afterwards.

Tips For Choosing Luxury Home Decor

If you want to create a home with a high degree of elegance, you need to consider luxury home decor. This includes classic pieces, which can be mixed with contemporary pieces. These items tend to feature old-world lines and neutral colours. They also have elegant design elements. This type of decor will last a long time, whereas more modern pieces will come and go. Listed below are some tips to make your home look more luxurious.

A personal supplier is a great option to build your collection faster and get special discounts. They can even help you find collectible pieces that you might not have otherwise been able to afford. While there are numerous suppliers available online, you should ensure that they are in your best interest before hiring them. If you're unsure whether you should hire a personal supplier, check the references of past clients and ask the supplier for recommendations. They'll probably be more than happy to help you with your decorating needs.

While expensive furnishings are the hallmarks of luxury home decor, they do not need to break the bank. Adding fresh flowers to your home will add a touch of class and elegance. You can even grow your own flowers, saving money on labor and seeds. Illuminated art is another way to create a high-end look. These are just a few of the tips to help you choose a decor for your home. Don't forget to choose beautiful furniture and accessories to compliment your interior and exterior.

If you want to add art to your home, consider purchasing some framed art. Goodearth offers a collection of original art pieces by renowned artists. A variety of framed mirrors is also available from the store, including round, oval, and rectangular-shaped ones with intricately crafted frames. These beautiful pieces of luxury home decor can be used to accentuate a mantle or serve as a centerpiece. The possibilities are endless with these beautiful pieces of art!

When shopping for upscale home decor, try to select items that will work well with your style. Texture is important. When combining wood types and metallics, you can create depth in any room. Spun materials also look great when paired with luxurious decorative furnishings. Incorporate a touch of velvet and you'll be surprised at the transformation. When selecting luxury home decor, always remember to use your tactile sense. You'll be happy you did.

You can evoke a different culture by using the right luxury home decor. For example, you can place a soaking tub in a sunny alcove and surround it with reproductions of Italian sculptures. Or, you can put colorful mosaics around a copper tub to create the ambiance of a Mexican villa. A soaking tub placed in a private patio can add an outdoor oasis feel to the room. Another luxurious way to make a room feel more like an oasis is to use highly textured furniture.

Loopity loop: Re:Cycle -fun- facts

courtesy of microsoft clipart ;;)

Trigger warning: THIS IS NOT A CLICKBAIT, I REPEAT, THIS IS NOT A CLICKBAIT

Well you might familiar about this one tiny itsy bitsy fella, but it will pileddup like a peak of mountain and hell yeah goes everywhere? I mean like really, ｅｖｅｒｙｗｈｅｒｅ in our country???

Then i guess you might be right, trashes!

What if i told you if this guy is mean Or maybe what if i told you that you are yourself, is a trash?  Well it depends *winkwonk*

But hey trashes aren’t that evil yo, lemon is

((courtesy of jeffcrazy @ redbubble))

thats right, Every Villain Is Lemons xD

Whoopsie, sorry, back again with recycling content. Recycling is a one of a kind process to create a new item from an used particular materials. Perhaps, its not only a part of waste disposal hierarchy – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle ; consider this, to reduce energy, and potentially using materials from trashes. We mostly do recycling things from using plastic bags as our shopping bag, to using old papers as our scribbling notes.

(courtesy :  iCreativeIdeas.com)

We could probably do things creatively using bottles to make a kind of this vertical garden stuff, for example.

Thus I would like to give you some fun facts about ‘recycling inventions’ in our entire beloved universe, Earth!

1. A Newspaper that could turn into a plants while it teared up

((courtesy: yoshinakaono.com))

Japan, the country of the rising sun again, made another wonderful invention called ‘Green Newspaper’ And was invented by the publisher of the famous Japanese daily, The Mainichi Shimbunsha. 

I’ve heard this was also a part of campaign to reduce paper and ink waste. Thus it will grew you some beautiful flower, it was ideal to decorate your households and outdoor living.

The idea was conceived by Dentsu Inc, one of Japan’s largest advertising agencies, which works with “The Mainichi”. The green newspaper is not the first sustainable initiative undertaken by the Japanese daily. Its commitment to environmental protection is already well-known thanks to a previous advertising campaign on water donations for populations suffering from thirst. “The Mainichi doesn’t take action only through information, but also by solving global issues”. - Lifegate.com

Pretty rad huh? :> Wanna get your own? Go to japan then lol

2.  Edible Rings On Six-Packs Cans

((courtesy of we believers))

YES I TOLD YOU, ITS EDIBLE. Thank god there would be no more problems for sea creatures. Oh did i mention, sea creatures? Yep, A craft beer company has brewed up a brilliant idea.Saltwater Brewery in Delray Beach, Florida, has created edible six-pack rings that feed, rather than kill, marine life if the rings end up in the ocean and an animal happens to eat it. The rings are created from beer by-products during the brewing process such as barley and wheat and are completely safe for humans and fish to eat.

((courtesy of we believers)) oh my god SIGN-ME-THE-F***-OUT

3.  Edible Food Packaging Made From Milk Proteins

Much of the plastic packaging we see in the grocery store can be recycled, from egg containers, to milk jugs, to butter tubs. But what about that thin plastic film stretched around wedges of manchego in the cheese bin or the 16-ounce rib-eye in the chiller case?

This case, U.S. Department of Agriculture researchers have discovered that a milk protein called casein can be used to develop an edible, biodegradable packaging film. The casein-based film is up to 500 times better than plastic at keeping oxygen away from food because proteins form a tighter network when they polymerize, the researchers found. It’s also more effective than current edible packaging materials made from starch and protects food products that are sensitive to light.

4. This designer invented a new way to recycle

27-Year-Old Dave Hakkens revolutionize recylcing by inventing machine. He making a project based called “Precious Plastic” He invent a series of machine to create some particular objects.

5.  Making women's shoes from recycled water bottles

Rothy's, a US fashion startup, are making women's shoes out of recycled plastic bottles. The shoes are made completely from recycled materials and can be put together in just 6 minutes by a 3D knitting machine.

Didn’t think it’s possible to get a perfect balance of fashion and function? Think again.

6. These new down jackets and vests made almost entirely of recycled materials

Patagonia is one of the most trusted clothing brand in outdoor and cold-weather clothes and accessories. This season, Patagonia is taking another big step in the right direction in terms of keeping the earth clean, debuting its re\\\collection line of clothing.

The re\\\collection line expands on Patagonia's most recent efforts to produce sustainable clothing. This new line takes resourcefulness to another level, constructed from 100% recycled wool and 100% recycled polyester, as well as 85% recycled polyester labels, 80% recycled zippers, and 50% recycled buttons.

Intersted?

7. Environmentalists made a prototype bike using recycled paper

A group of mexican environmentalists designed a bicycle that is made mostly from recycled paper.

The Urban CG1 also contains parts made from rubber, plastic, and metal - which the creators say can be reused. The designers say the bike is waterproof, thanks to a polystyrene paint which they claim is "ecological."

I ‘ve heard they had been passing this project to kickstarter, go check it out!!

8. The new Olympic medals might be made from recycled smartphones

The medals for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo may be made from an unlikely source: discarded smartphones.

According to Nikkei Asian Review's Ken Sakakibara, Japan's "urban mine" is home to millions of smartphones and other discarded electronics. That mine contains enough precious metals to create all the gold, silver, and bronze medals necessary for the Olympic and Paralympic games in 2020.

The amount of gold, silver and copper sitting in that mine is staggering: the report claims that in 2014, 143kg of gold, 1,566kg of silver, and 1,112 tons of copper were recovered from electronic waste in Japan. Compared to the 9.6kg of gold, 1,210kg of silver and 700kg of copper used to produce the 962 medals awarded in the 2012 London Olympic Games, Japan is sitting on more than enough materials to produce the medals. - Insiders UK

9. A device turns bottles into plastic string.

Enough plastic bottles are thrown away each year to circle the earth four times. The Plastic Bottle Cutter hopes to help change that, and found an innovative way to recycle bottles.

((from: Gizmondo))

Pretty Rad? grab for your own device on the link above, and check this out.

10. A micro-library made of 2,000 recycled ice cream containers

Finally, the last fact. This fact was finally take an insight in our beloved country, Indonesia.

An architect Florian Heinzelmann traveled around Indonesia, he noticed that many villages lacked communal spaces.That's why he - and his Netherlands-based design firm, Shau - decided to create a small public library in the village of Bandung.Like most libraries, the goal is to foster a love of reading and encourage community members to hang out, Heinzelmann tells Tech Insider. But unlike most libraries, it's made of 2,000 used ice cream buckets.

Located in Bandung, Indonesia, the micro-library measures just 1,720 square feet — about half the size of a one-car garage. It was completed in July 2016.

Take a peek of the full article here :>

That’s it for the facts today. Well as a human, I may conclude that human creation is great. As a monotheist, God creation is Absolute than ever!! We, human, must keep and mantain the creation of the universe, earth to keep it living in decades. Human may create, but they had to remember....

Human must keeping it sake alive.

Thank you for reading, and please, keep your trashes to its belongings. Have a nice day :)

Best of BM 2017: 5 Of Our Favorite Styled Shoots

Styled shoots are so fun, from an editorial perspective, and a bride perspective. You get to see each wedding vendor’s talents, dreams, and unadulterated creativity. Every year we get so many unique ideas, learn the latest trends, and just have so much extra pretty to look at.

We’ve been lucky enough to feature a lot of gorgeous styled shoots on the blog this year, from all over the world. So as with the rest of our Best of 2017 round-ups, it’s been pretty tough to select our tight list of favorites. We’ve pulled together five of our favorite styled shoots (and thrown an extra in for fun!)

1. Wild Roses; Cool & Romantic White Wedding Inspiration

Captured by Marilyn Bartman Photography, with a concept and gorgeous gowns from Wild at Heart Bridal, this cool and romantic shoot features some of the most talented wedding vendors in the Nertherlands. (Sidenote: we’re kind of obsessed with Dutch weddings.)

2. Gorgeous, Romantic French Vineyard Wedding Inspiration

A classically romantic, French winery wedding shoot with chic modern details? Please, sign us up!  This styled shoot photographed by Cavin Elizabeth Photography shows you can revel in all the old romance of the French countryside, while still making the decor totally new and totally you.

The chic, monochrome stationary look like exclusive Paris Fashion Week invites, working seamlessly in with the light, understated, pink floral decor.

3. Dark Celestial Luminosity; Gorgeous Indigo & Gold Wedding Inspiration

This trendy celestial shoot (we’ve been stargazing quite a bit lately)  is crammed with ideas; mixing metallics with dark hues (that copper tub!), bringing in unusual colour combinations like flashes of pink or red with a largely indigo and purple backdrop, and inspiring innovative floral styling (floral hoops are huge for 2017!) and glamorous attire.

4. Opulent Wedding Romance In A Historic English Estate

Is there anything more classic, more romantic, than a countryside castle wedding? I’m getting nothing but fairytale, royal wedding vibes in this gorgeous styled shoot photographed by Taylor and Porter at the historic Port Eliot in Cornwall.

Knot & Pop seamlessly matched the estate’s antique opulence with modern luxury in bridal wear and accessories.

And A Claire Eliza Extra: Cool & Colourful Fiesta Wedding Inspiration From Brooklyn

My absolute favorite styled shoot I shot myself this year, featured on Bridal Musings, is this cool & colorful Brooklyn fiesta wedding inspiration. Annette, my very own Mexican American princess (and my witness for our own upcoming Mexico wedding!) played model for this updated fiesta inspiration. Less Cancun, more Tulum, with hip details, bright florals, and a $60 Asos gown. (What?!)
