Plain English

There are some interior images that make me catch my breath.

This is one of those.

The color, the light, the texture, the craftmanship...

About Plain English:

• Plain English is a traditional joinery company.
• We use the techniques of 18th and 19th century cabinetmakers.
• Skilled joiners make our cupboards by hand in our Suffolk workshop.
• We don't like gadgets and plastic bits.
• Most of our drawers run on candlewaxed wooden runners.
• Our shelf pegs are hand turned for us by a small company that makes wooden nails.
• Our baskets are hand-woven for us in Suffolk from willow grown along the banks of the River Box.
• The local forge makes our iron shelf brackets and hanging pot rails.
• The pull-out trays in our floor cupboards were copied from the slides in an 18th century linen press.
•

•  Sounds pretty amazing... 

I don't want to know the prices!

blogging and inspiration

First of all I want to welcome all my new readers and followers.

 I think it's so amazing that I put some images of my old painted kitchen out here... 

and get so many sweet comments and encouraging words from you amazing folks fom all over the world!

And I'm happy that I had the chance to get accquainted with some of you via your own blogs, e-mails and facebook!

And all that inspiration I get from other blogs!

I may not live in my dream home nor do I have a big budget, but YOU inspire me...

to make MUCH of NOTHING!

Okay, MUCH out of LITTLE! ;)

My ultimate goal:

Make a HOME for my FAMILY!

Liv-Hilde og Tønnes si hytta

NOTE: Sorry, but this post has to be in Norwegian.

It's about two special people and the little hut they built in their front yard just to be even more hospitable than they had been before.

Et åpent hus.

Et åpent hjem.

Her finne du mannane som e hima fra Nordsjøen med en kaffikopp i hånden om førmiddagen...

og ongdommer om ettermiddagen/kvelden.

Men mitt på dagen - 

kan en finne fruen i huset som tar seg en middagskvil på hemsen.

Takk, Liv-Hilde og Helge Tønnes for alt dokke e og betyr for mange her på øyne.
