glorious spring




Suddently we have sun, no wind and temperatures around 10 degrees (50 Fahrenheit)...
the kids love it!

a little spring in the dining nook


This room is  so hard to take good pictures, because of the large window...

But I finally make a transition to spring.


Blue and white pillows (two made from dish towels) and some white tulips...

Blue and white dishes (not old or expensive ones, but fond memories attached - my husband had them in his university years and we used them the first years of our marriage)



Happy spring!

Here I am - this is me!

Det må jo bli soverommet ;)


Nymalt i grått. Litt naturfarger og en dose hvit. Litt selvlagt (sengegavl og tavla).
Litt vintage og litt nytt. 






Det er meg.

a creative mess

Our house gets messy quicker than I'm able to clean up. (Yes, the kids do chores, but still...)
I laughed when I saw that my friend Rie filed the photo from my living room at Pinterest with the comment:


"... so soothing".



I grabbed my camara and took a picture as it was
 right there and than... so soothing!!!


Sometimes I try to keep up with everything. I try to be this really neat person. I think my family likes me not so much on these days... and I realized another thing:  my creativity dries up.



Some days being creative is more important to me than a clean house.


So, if you come over and the house is a mess, just know I had other priorities that day...
