picnic baskets by Emma Hedberg

Multifunctional and happy baskets/stools/tables. I love it when designers use old and ordinary objects and turn them into something new and surprising. These baskets, I by Emma Hedberg, made me smile and fantasize about warm summer evenings by the sea. Check out Emma Hedbergs website to see more of her design and if you are in the area the designer will be at Nordiska trädgårdsmässan (garden fair)this weekend.

exhibition

I just wanted to tell you that Jenny Almén Gunnerfeldt (blogged earlier here) is having an exhibition showing her pillows and drawings at TjallaMalla, Stockholm. Starting today. Her pillows are all made of vintage fabric and every pillow is an original drawing.

Welcome!

I might have some new visitors coming from Norway (and other places of course). I am so happy and proud that Astrid included me on this list over att klikk.no. I am in the company of some of my absolute favourite blogs and I am also very much looking forward to check out the blogs on the list that are new to me. Thank you Astrid!
To everyone stopping by this blog of mine - welcome! I hope that you'll find something that you like and also -if you are a blogger yourself -don't hesitate to link. I would love to hear from you.

weather report

Very strange weather here today. The sun was shining through my kitchen window on this cone lying on the counter. The next moment snow is whirling outside and now while writing this it's all still again. The sky graphite grey.

Origami

My big girl got this book, Origami For Kids - easy and fun step by step projects, for her birthday. Today we folded a lot of hats. It was fun until I tried the San-pou, candy box. It was not at all easy and fun. I made the same mistake over and over again and I havn't given it up but I think I'll have to practise alone. Mamma, are you angry with the paper? Of course not. Anyway, then I folded a heart and we took pictures of happy softies in hats. That was easy. And very fun.

camo curtains

The curtains in this home are made of Swedish Army white snow camo net from Surplus and Adventure. I like it. I also like the color combo - rust-red, black and green - in the top image.

Kitchen

I guess i should be grateful not to be the owner of this kithen. My employer and some other people that I know would probably oppose of me refusing to leave it.
