Old chap

The African sculpture and dishes have been with us for about 20 years. African stuff is not all the rage right now but we'll wait and will be fashionable again someday, surely.

Antiques are creeping in

The old stuff has found its way to our home to wait for a better place at Vårkulla. The radio doesn't work but looks good. I could call it a project, but won't, because I guess it will never be repaired. The cabinet is from Pentik (link) and is (of course) full of books. The boring parquet is not the best possible background for beautiful old wood but as we are only renting, we just have to make do.

Eggs again

I showed a picture of the easter eggs last week and here they are again. They just look so good, I want to share them with you again. We have tried to find more glass dome timepieces in flea markets but now that we'd need them there are none to be found.

Stuff it

It is funny: the more stuff you have, the more you need. We already have pictures on two to three rows on the walls and now the upper walls start to feel empty. In addition, there is not a lot of room on the small tables but I am still looking for more stuff to put on them.

Bright smiles, little city

If you want a bright smile, try Marvis!

Gray days

We visited Porvoo yesterday and I checked out all the lovely shops in the old town. These gray animal food containers are perfect for our bathroom.  Instead of animal food, I'll store cleaning stuff in the bigger one and use the smaller one as a garbage bin.

Easter is coming, be ready!

I happened to find a lot of beautiful easter eggs in shops yesterday. And my husband modified an old glass dome timepiece (vuosikello inFinnish) to a perfect "eggholder".
