No words for what happened to my city today..

..my vintage wall

We are working on selling our beloved appartment these days so I thought I would like to share some pictures of it before we're packing everything down. 

Here is  a picture from the wall of our entry room:

Framed butterflies: My sweet friend Marie gave me this to me. She found it in Paris.

Plant: I simply love plants in jars! Also check out this post

Old picture: The little boy is my husbands grandfather. 

Talking about old photos. I had a discusion with my brother today. We both like old photos, but he thinks it's more fun with photos of strangers, so that he can make up their stories. I like to know the story behind every picture and it should also be family members. What would you prefere?

..pride and prejudice

My little beauty with her ever changing hairstyle got this awesome onesie from Brooke, a dear friend of us. Check out her and her husbands great etsy shop!

..a gift wrapped week VI

Drop some drops of essential oil (e.g. lavender oil) on coconut fibers, put it in a favor bag and hang it on the gift with dried flowers. The recipient can later use it in a closet to give the clothes a nice smell.

If you have a "boring" gift like money or a gift card, then this can be a sweet thing to do. Roll the gift inside a pretty paper and make sure the paper you use is long enough so it's not to hard to get it out! I speak out of experience..

..a gift wrapped week IV

Burlap, hemp and feather gives this gift a bohemian feeling. I like that feeling..

..a gift wrapped week III

 Fragile, but it looks pretty neet to carry this to the party!

Some people can't get enough of shoes, I can't get enough rubber stamps. Expensive to buy, but can last for a lifetime. Here I have used two stamps to decorate the plain gift paper. Sometimes I stamp "To:" and "From:" directly on the gift paper as well.

Since it's a high season for weddings now (at least in my part of the world) I thought I would share some gift wrapping ideas. Stay tuned for more ideas the coming days!

..a scoop of melon please

A good friend of mine with this awesome food blog gave me scooped watermelon the other day and I think the idea was fabulous! You will need a spoon like the one at the picture, press it in to the watermelon, then twist it. 

Enjoy!

I got to co-shoot a wedding this weekend and what a beautiful wedding and couple! Lace, roses and daisys.. Mmm.. Here is a few of the shots.

Congratulation Solveig and Benjamin!!

..baby wrap

After being on my first vacation with a baby I must say that this pice of cloth is a must have! There are many kinds that can be bought, mine is a Moby wrap. It's so comfortable to wear, easy to get around with and it's better for the baby's back and hips to be carried in this compeared to other carriers. 

But I must warn you - It can be pretty embarrassing to try to get a hang of the wrapping in public..
