Happy birthday!

bild-12Today our son is turning 7 and once again I´m taken by how time is running by so fast. The most amazing little guy, son and brother – always taking care of & protecting his younger sister – so sensitive and beautiful in every single way. Growing so fast, one tooth after the other falling out & new ideas and questions every single day. Happy birthday my love!

And look at the colors and how the different shades make such a perfect mix. Read the article here & don´t miss the house tour movie clip.

Ps. I know the pics are not that detailed but just watch the clip & you´ll know what I mean with collecting and inspirational. Ds.

Great minds think apart

Vagn 1 serveringsvagn 2 serveringsvagn 3Ok – maybe the wish list days should be over for now but as it´s my birthday in a month I can´t help wanting one more thing…You see, my husband does not at all share my interest for interior decoration and for every change I want to make in our house it begins with a long time of persuasion and negotiation and to be honest I often loose since the budget is not always what one wishes for. That´s ok though, it´s a good thing not buying to much stuff when that is not what you really need and when you can put money on more important things. However that said and admitting that I´m a sucker for beautiful (and often unfortunately not life saving) objects and if I where to wish for one more thing it would be a trolley (preferably in black metal with marble shelves) in a corner of our kitchen. So that is my wish and hold on for it – here is what my husband wants in that same corner – ta da – a synthesizer! As much as I Iove the idea of music in our house I have to say that the 7 guitars, the two other electric pianos, trumpets, drums and some other stuff are probably enough. One has to love the differences and challenges in lift, right? Let the negotiations begin…

Good morning!

GM

First day of work after two weeks of total relaxation (it was a bank holiday in Sweden yesterday). My head is still not 100% ready to kick things off (this morning was really interesting….) – but with a big cup of tea & some pilates to wake me up I´m sure things will fall into place soon. Wishing you a very good start to the week with some flowers and color!

For the young ones

Kids 1 Kids 2I´ve noticed that one thing you seem to fancy a lot (and that I will try to get better at showing more of) is kid´s rooms. I really enjoy that too but sometimes it is hard to find inspirational features that are not too cute or so stylish it almost becomes silly. The amazing Milk Magazine is great for inspiration and just in case you haven´t discovered Designmom yet, there is some good stuff there as well (the two pics from there). Go check it out if you like or visit my Pinterest album on the same topic.
