Not so modern

Even though everything except the wall paper is new in this picture, the room doesn't look too modern.

Let it rain!

I got new red rubber boots, so let it rain, I don't care!

Something new and something blue

The new lamp is more turqoise than blue and it is perfect. It looks as good in daylight as in the evening. Note: the alphabet board is now hanging on the wall as it should..

From every angle

Now that the red blanket is at last finished, it has to be photographed and admired from every angle.

I would if I could

I love to knit. Last year I got inspired and knitted two blankets and about ten pairs of socks. After that my left hand middle finger was so sore that in the end I couldn't bend it. After that I put this half finished blanket in storage and didn't finish it until now. I was supposed to make a bigger one but did't dare to start knitting again. My 76 year old mother knits every day without any problems, I'm so jealous of her! It's awful to know you are good at something but can't do anything with your skills.

Summer flowers

This bowl is part of Arabia's summer flowers crockery that I inherited from my nanny.  The bowl is in very good condition even though it is from the early 1940's. Now at last I found a good place for it - it has been in our garderobe for about 15 years...and a pile of plates is still there...

Radio days

This small radio from the 60's waits for a better place...it is now in our hall. I think it would deserve a more visible place but hadn't find one yet. My husband thinks it needs a car from the same period but I try to find a cheeper solution.
