Latino Living: Mexican Decor Inspiration For The Latino Home

Feb 26, 2013

We haven’t played this game in a while. Y’all know how much I LOVE my Mexican decor… and especialmente the little things that remind me about my little part of Mexico in San Luis Potosi. That’s probably why I hardly ever get on Pinterest too. Cause I could spend the entire day just finding cool pictures to share with all of you all of the time. Pero bueno, these are some of the coolest finds I’ve found on Mexican decor via Pinterest lately. Espero les gusten.

That wall is so rancho! Our kitchen in Mexico isn’t this nice, but we do make use of the wall and ceiling space in very similar ways. We have a door leading to our bedroom just like that one!

Check this out. That kitchen alone would seriously get me thinking about relocating to San Miguel, Mexico. Talk about great marketing!

Since I’m currently on the hunt for a new desk this built in counter top space seems like the perfect area to do my writing. The window and lighting are also pretty sweet.

Now this kitchen, what really caught my eye were the chairs and table. I have always, always been a fan of this style of craftsmanship. ¡Hermosura de mesa!

Ahhhh…. Talk about being at one with nature. That tree through the kitchen gives this space such a relaxing feel. At least for me it’s pretty awesome. The tile everywhere is pretty cool too.

And this sink. I’m not much of a fan of fixtures, but this sink is so classic, elegant and sleek that I had to share. I want it now!

¡Bueno, pos happy pinning!

Mexi-Inspiration For The Latino Home!

Sep 19, 2012

It’s always a great day when we can all together ogle over some beautiful Mexi-inspired home decor ideas. I’m calling it Mexi-Inspiration, ha! Cheesy… yes, I know! Actually, my idea is also to inspire Anjelica to start making some of these pieces for our own home as well. We’ve already got the folding Mexican oil cloth chairs done and ready to be used at our next big party! Any of these, could definitely be considered icing on the cake…. some more than others, of course!

By the way, it would be great to see some of your own decoration ideas, if you’re up for sharing that is? Links and pictures are desde luego welcome.

Alter as originally pinned by Julie Vogel

My grandmother in Mexico had a very elaborate and truly traditional Mexican alter in her home all of my life. It was a soothing place for her personal plegarias and to this day remains one of the most cherished memories of who she was and still is to all of us: our matriarch! La virgen she had is especially meaningful to all of us.

Why can’t we have houses this beautifully decorated? For real! The colors may be a bit bright for some, but to me, they just inspire a sense of happiness.

I. WANT. THIS. COUCH!! That’s all I need to say about this one.

A door like this would always make me feel bienvenido

Window Terrace as originally pinned by Destiny Rogowski

You know, in Texas it’s probably too hot for something like this – I mean opening the window and letting the wind blow in – but I’d still be willing to try it!

Wedding Cake as originally pinned by Teresa Sanchez.

This one I just had to share. It literally looks like the icing is embroidered on this cake!

How awesome!

Latino Living: Decor Inspiration For The Latino Home

Jul 19, 2012

For all of you obsessed with the ultimate Latino home, like me – in my case, it would be the ultimate Mexi Style home – I hope you find the following pictures inspirational. Somehow, in real life, and especially with huercos in the house, it almost seems impossible to keep our casitas this spic and span. Not even 4-0-9 can do the job sometimes! Think of it too, as validation for all the time you spend on Pinterest… just fantasizing about all of these beautiful things también.

La costura is really what caught my eye in this one. My mom has been a fervent embroiderer since I can remember, and her and lots of other señoras have always talked shop about costuras. The rest of the bedroom is pretty amazing too!

Color as originally pinned by Ana De Luna

These neon colors were in style in Mexico, and across Latin America, way before fashionistas across the globe jumped on the trend.

Bathroom as originally pinned by Rena K

DAYUM… the baño is nice!!

Dining room as originally pinned by Sophia Bianchi

To me, this is a little bit more sophisticated, but still very nice.

The room is a little bland. But the colors on the wall están a toda madre!

Patio as originally pinned by Yasuko Drennan

Finally… the patio. Oh, the patio! Except for the pink tone, I could definitely see myself laying right there on that pillowed bench, scrolling through my phone, a Margarita in one hand, a puro in the other one, and just feeling the cool breeze tease every single strand of my hair in the wind.

Ahhh… we did say this was a fantasy, verdad?!

Keep the dreams alive folks!
