heaven on earth

: : I spend my days longing for this place. the view from the sauna at my family's summer house. it's heaven on earth : :

Just Pretty...

My kids are on spring break and we are enjoying our week off...a few picture I came across that made me oooo and ahhh...see ya all next week!!

happy belated easter!

: : I know it's after .easter. already, but I couldn't resist sharing these beautifully crafted eggs by Slovenian artist, .franc grom. incredible!

Dreaming of Summer

The weather is finally warming up here and I can't help but notice how much my mood has improved over the last few days. I find myself thinking about the outdoors all the time! Have a great weekend everyone and HAPPY EASTER!!!!

ready made kitchens

: : found these wonderful and warm kitchen pieces by architect .knud kapper. for .hansen living. when I was browsing .inhabitat. today. beautiful pieces in oak, maple and teak. the first image is called an instant kitchen meant for studios and small apartments, just hook it up to water and electricity and you have a kitchen ready.

and I fell in love with the yellow on the walls in the last photo. I like the contrast between the yellow and white, and the yellow is so warm, reminds me of spring......or maybe I'm just in easter mode.

dala häst och tupp

: : these guys are my inspiration right now. maybe I'll have some more time to spend on my patterns this week.

too much work

: : so sorry folks. I've been absent for too long. work has been taking up too much of my time. this week I hope things will be back to normal. and I have an exciting visit from my cousin, aunt and uncle to look forward to.

too busy at work, but still important to take breaks here and there, and my friend's wedding is giving me a reason to distract myself with browsing wedding blogs and photography sites. there's so much emotion captured in wedding photos. I like the first one, a simple backyard party. and the second with bold and colorful decorations. .julie harris. seem to be capturing the right moments.

Summer Time Rooms

These room give off a very summer time feel to me. Perhaps its all the white and the brightness or maybe because it reached 80 degrees today and its suppose to snow on tuesday...(enough winter already) I'm in full "I WANT SUMMER" mode!
