Toodeloo

to the loo in our house....

Almost 9 years ago I installed this "temporarily" badly painted shelf above the loo.

Time for some change. So I bought a new Botkyrka shelf at Ikea.

Perhaps not a major change but I think this looks better than before.

IKEA

I don't like flat packs!
But the kenderman has gone to work.... and as an independent kenderfrau....

Luckily alle the bits and pieces were there....

Still I could use some help and Nim loves flat packs! You can check it here.

Almost a year ago I posted S.O.S. For some reason it still doesn't work so I decided
these four frames will be replaced by one large photo. To be continued......

Done

One little paint job done.

This old Ikea cabinet looks so much better now.

Perhaps you noticed ......... we're in desperate need of a plinth :)

DIY

Sanding and painting....... one of my tasks for today.

Flat Pack

Hiya! It's I, Nim. Have you ever tried a flat pack from Ikea?

In my house there lives a kenderfrau to come up with such a great idea!

She can do the easy peasy things herself and then.......

Then you destroy the Ikea manual!!!

OMG who sent you to help?

You have to keep a close eye.

Perhaps not that close.....

But you have to stay on top of things.

And the end result? Bor-ring!!!!

Pieces

Nim has broken my Jonsberg vase but there is a Dutch saying: shards bring luck :)

Enjoy your weekend or holidays!

S.O.S.

Perhaps you've got an idea for me!

After a couple weeks these 4 aluminium frames (40x50) are still empty  :-)

Can you please help me by posting your idea for these frames?

Dark

Normally my interior decoration becomes much lighter in spring and summer.

But somehow I'm in need of some dark elements so instead of lighter it became darker.

The drawing was a present from the artist 25 years ago. It is made by Snor.

Gloomy Weather

Does gloomy weather get you down?

I tend to stay in the house and I just want to sit on the couch and watch a movie
next to the kenderman and Sil on my lap.

But it's so much better to go outside for a long walk and get some exercise and light. 

Afterwards you feel really satisfied and you can still curl up on the couch to watch a movie.

Have a nice weekend!

Out Of The Dark

This is a pretty dark spot in our kitchen so we're in desperate need of some extra light.

Visualising....

Work in progress.......

Foxy

Star Light

LED Christmas light from Ikea

I love this time of the year.

Although it's dark, the days are shortening and the light levels are decreasing, it's really cozy with all the Christmas lights.

Home Fernishing

Davallia fejeensis (aka Rabbit's foot fern, Good Luck plant)

We both love ferns.

At first only the kenderman was hooked but I'm getting under their spell as well ;-)

Most ferns are in our garden but we do have a couple of ferns inside the house.
I love the green colour and the natural feel they bring into our home.

The planter is from Ikea, called PS FEJÖ and it's also available in white.
 When your plant gets quite big or it gets too heavy you can just roll it.

 And it's watertight so no more leaking water on your (wooden) floors.
We used to have handmade glazed ceramic pots but those proofed not to be reliable.
You always have the risk of damp and mould underneath the pot.

Bathroom

Plastic rug from Pappelina.

 Shower curtain from Ikea.

Metro tiles.
