I discovered a new local shop today – or to be more correct my friend discovered two really cool whiskey glasses in a window – insisted on me popping in to To trinn ned (means two steps down) in Jægersborggade. Previously the same location has had a messy antique shop held by an old man [...]

It’s not a secret – I simply adore German retro fashion, so much I want my entire wardobe to just be that – filled with lovely handmade colourful retro adorable clothing from companies like Bonnie & Buttermilk. Yes I wish they also sold accessories like tights, hats and so on. Ok might be fashion starved [...]

Last week I was sure I would find the time to finish these brown knitted pants for the baby – as I thought I was in labor – but no (luckily) I have to wait until October for that – so the pants are done!! Way too big I do think but that doesn’t matter, [...]

It’s ready – just lacking some buttons – a knitted stripy wool jacket for the baby – the jacket is much larger than the other I made….so either this is big or the other one very tiny….I love the style, recipe from Brukt på nytt (used in new ways). PS! just 3 weeks until I’m [...]

I started looking at wallpaper yesterday – looking to figure out what should go on the wall in the nursery – at the same time I discovered so many nice things made out of vintage wallpaper or inspired by vintage wallpaper. So my end of the week list is all about vintage wallpaper items from Italian Drawflowes. All things are handmade with original vintage vinyl wallpaper ’60 and ’7

I’m planning the nursery or the corner of my bedroom that’ll be my baby’s corner ( yes I do put baby in the corner he he). Right now the issue is: ‘What should go on the wall’?

Dette er sjeldent, meg og en symaskin! (bildet er tatt i min svigermors stue) Something very rare – me and a sewing machine! (in my mother in law’s living room) Jeg har sydd noe, og det er første gang siden forkle jeg lagde i 5. klasse. Selvsagt har jeg fått guidet hjelp av min flinke [...]
