A new day






Fall is just around the corner. I always measure my years by autumns - maybe because my birthday month is August. Everything changes but some things stay the same. 

I might be moving the blog very soon so I thought I would leave you with a few snapshots from spaces that have suddenly become a part of my life. My boyfriend John has been going on a decorating frenzy lately so I thought I would help by adding those small things that a guy would never buy - white orchids, candles & flowers. He doesn't seem to mind and I think that he may even like the coziness of it all. Or maybe he just lets me have my way because he's realized that life is just easier that way... ;)

The silver plate is from Indiska. It turned rusty from sitting out in the rain on the terrace and now I like it even more. Johns got a million cameras lying around so the camera as decoration was actually just a nice mistake.  The print in the white frame is a failed polaroid print attempt that John decided that he liked anyways.  I guess these little mistakes lying around have become a symbol of picking ourselves up when things don't exactly go as planned and making a beautiful life out of them.

  1. I don't know how you keep up with moving yor blog again and again - mine stays in one place and I still find it hard to manage :) Speaking of which, although I promise I am not a crazy fan girl, I was thrilled to see you stopped by my little space and left a comment. Thank-you.

    The little touches that you have added to your home are simple and beautiful. I always love the combination of white with more white.

  2. I simply love the flowers!! I can't wait to decorate my new apartment when I finally move into it with my boyfriend. It's so much fun to do it together - men and women think SO differently about it.

  4. Forresten, It's not one or the other in a home. Menn og kvinner utfyller hverandre og skaper et nydelig og relaxing hjem :) Tror jeg da.

  5. Your words are so beautifully arranged in this post.

    I'm so bummed my orchid died a month ago. I don't know where I went wrong.

    I really like the simplicity of his home. I wish I could de-clutter my house the same way lol.
