Hand in hand with our mood designer Baiba Prindule-Rence and camera guru Linda Lauva we planned a photo shoot expecting light summer vibes during the day of 10th of May. The morning came into its own as a wonder and gave us winter breeze with snow and +2 degrees only… Still we didn’t give up and forthcoming was just the beginning of something greater; the summer wedding carried out with charming simplicity. Cheers to Baiba and Linda for genuine creativeness to make the imaginary wedding complete. Tips for midsummer wedding The Day is captured for your unspoken moments.

How do you know the spring is near? You can’t wait to repot your houseplants (and get more of them)! Here are four signs that your plant is ready for repotting: New leaves appear slowly and are very small compared to older leaves.
