On one of those grey days
When my mind just would not "sing" with me
When all my small doings felt endless
I got this
From sweet & cool Sandra
With the oh-so-wonderful blog
Design Shimmer

Her words turned my day
{ S M I L E }

I have to pass it on
To someone that inspires me
Not easy
Because it´s so so many of you

But I must make a choice,
and here is my No. 1 inspiration source right now
Fjeldborg
It´s her way
Her words and kindness
Such a sweet mind

Somehow she feels like my sister
I like her
& her world

{ L O V E }

( yes, I redesigned the button.....just had to )

One new photo
Made me look through my old ones

Hi there,
my oh so sweet colors

Farrow & Ball
Found through Bright Bazaar
Thank you for the inspiration!

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 }

L I G H T

I embrace
each sunbeam
that finds its way
through my window

Making the dust dance
Making me smile

Me
Laying flat
In bed
Sick

I want to dance too

{ S M I L E }

S P A C E

Before
and now
Not all done
But on my way
My sweet home office

S E A R C H

On my way
Searching life
Searching me
I found this
I believe
I believe in me
I believe in love
I hope you believe

{ W A R M S M I L E }

Christmas is here
Not only at the shopping mall
But for real

For me Christmas is magic
Pure magic
(right Marianne)

We got a visitor the other day
My favorite bird
The bullfinch
I like the Norwegian name
Dompap
So so sweet 
Almost as sweet as my little Santa-girl

Such a peaceful & lovely weekend

Missed them like crazy
That´s true mommy-love

New room for Alma
One room (almost) ready
Five to go
Renovating
Always more time-consuming
than you would think in the first place

I hope we are done
until Christmas

{ L O V E L Y W E D N E S D A Y }

{ HOW TO ... }

...clap

You need to wear
Soft clothes
Two different socks
And yes it helps to wear a hoop
Gold hoop that is

Clapping
You think it´s easy?
Think again
It´s actually rather hard

Two hands
In full speed
To meet

Remember;
Give yourself
a big smile
each time you make a hit!
