THOUGHTS & SWEET JOY

I HAVE TO THANK YOU

I took a tour
backwards

my days by posts
FRYD + DESIGN

I new I was lucky
But suddenly I realised
how fortunate
I have been
and still are

{ S M I L E }

Having this place
to be creative

You visiting
Leaving your words
Making me smile

My own ezines
by Fryd
Your feedback still amazes me

Having wonderful words in BoligLiv
Setting tables with Maison
Showing of my homemade Christmas in Dagbladet Søndag
Having my own color at Kulør
Collaborate with KK
Oh my

And now;
a new journey starts
Today was my last day at work
Now, all by my self
Ready to do what I love

More of this,
my blog and ezines
Working as a stylist for KK

I´m so exited

KITCHEN TOUR & VOTING

Since I´m nominated as one of "the best interiorblogs 2011" at NIB
I thought it was about time to show you my new kitchen

{ S M I L E }

Airy and white
Flowers and self made magnets
I´m really pleased

If you like my style
Smile
You can vote for me here
That would make me so happy

{ B I G S M I L E }

WHAT TO THINK

Who am I?
Me, of course. Nothing more, nothing less.
Most of the time quite happy with that.
But there are days....
I´ll take another time.
Smile.

I just discovered that F R Y D + D E S I G N is nominated as one of Norways best interiorblogs by NIB.
That is such a BIG surprise and a sweet honor.
Though I´m not jumping up and down, believe me I´m really happy!!
(it´s just that I´m not very bouncy)
But I know how to smile from ear to ear.

To be recognized and seen for what I love is special.
I love to express my self creatively.
My way of living and interior are a big part of that.
Therefor this means a lot to me.
Not beacause I´m good with trends, beeing in or stylish, which I´m not.
This means a lot because I get knowledge for following my dreams and heart.
And believe me, that feels good.

Thank you.

Sweet & warm thoughts, Jeanette

P R I V A T

A C T I V I T Y

The new kitchen is here
The old one is out

Mr. G is leaving tools every where
Me,
putting flowers in every messy corner
Just to balance

{ S M I L E }

Mr. G is doing such a wonderful job
My hero
(he has been wondering when I would tell you)

{ L A U G H T E R }

We have a lot of work ahead
All I can think of is the result

{ B I G S M I L E }

C R E A T I V E T H O U G H T S

From corners of my house

Since I decided to quit my job my mind has been in some kind of creative mess
From wanting to do everything
to wanting to do nothing,
which is not a very good alternative

{ S M I L E }

Thoughts like;
"no worries! this will be so much fun"
then
"what the h... am I thinking!! How will we survive"
Most of the times I´m in the middle of these two
Though clinging and hoping for the first thought

I have a plan to start on my third ezine
(love that word)
I know it´s been said before
But this time I really mean it

{ L A U G H T E R }

I´m so bad remembering how much work it is
Mr. G keeps telling me
All I recall is how much fun it was

{ LOVE & SMILES FROM JEANETTE }

S H I N I N G

The sun is out
I´m drinking cappuccino from my self-decorated-mustache cup
Spring has taking it´s place inside my house
I´m *happy* *happy*
Two of my photos from Picturewall is up
I can´t tell you how much I love thees products
I find it hard to pick out frames and this makes it so much easier
I´ve also bought a new lamp
Which I love
It seems like love is in the air

{ L O V E & S H I N E }

HERITAGE

 

Weeks ago
Together with my students
Visiting Telemark Museum, Brekke Gård
Such a wonderful place
In summer & spring
an amazing garden

Since then
I´ve been
working
been tired
visiting Prague
eating chocolate
thinking
dreaming
...and more day-dreaming

So that´s why
it´s been
slow motion

{ S M I L E }

M E M O R I E S

...soon up on my wall
I just got my photos from Picturewall
My heart jumped when I opened my package
Love at first sight

Yes,
I know
I´m the photographer
And this might have sounded like
self-splurge

But
It´s so differnt
to see your photos
your memories
your loved ones
On canvas
26 x 26 cm
In the greatest quality
I can´t wait to put my puzzle together
Hang it up on my wall

Sweet joy!

randomly
the chosen one
to get one of my prints on Monday

NEW KITCHEN

Today we have been visiting Kvik
Picking out our new kitchen
So exiting
And with the best service in town
it´s actually not that hard
making choises
Thank you Une!

When it´s all done it will look so good
I can´t wait!

And if you like our old kitchen
it will soon be out for sale

B I G S M I L E

PS. the top photo is from Kvik, the two others is my old kitchen

PALE SMILES

Two corners of my house
Old & something new

Time
is slow
When it comes to my projects
Time
flies
When it comes to
everything else

Still
I smile

There is so much
to smile for

{ L O V E }

TRUE LOVE

All that time spent in bed
Gives me time
to think

For over 14 days
I have been
Sleeping
Acking
Dreaming
Drinking tea
Thinking
And now that I´m able to sit up
Reading magazines & a bunch of lovely blogs

{ S M I L E }

I´m one of them
Who get so easy inspired
That sometimes I tend to lose myself
In many levels
But, first things first
My interior

I envy & love all those black and white homes
Sometimes I dream they would be mine
I start planning what to change
and my mind goes crazy

{ P H U U U }

Oh sweet
Then it happened
I read one of my magazines
And the home of Liza Giles openes up to me
I´ve seen it many many times
But today it made sense
This is what I love
This is what I always loved
Despite trends & clean design
This makes me happy
This is the colorpalet of my soul
Oh how happy I am

crisp white + pink + gold + fresh flowers

{ ON MY WAY }
