Bathroom finished!







This bathroom have been finished for a while now, it was actually one of the first room i did! The only thing that missed, was those tiny details that make it look right.  So this evening I´v  made the towel hanger beside the sink... and the towel with the small embroider monogram. I purchased a bunch of them at a marked last year in Antibes. I ´v  also made the toilet paper holder to match the towel holder....and the hanger(?) for the shower curtain. I ´v  made the perfume bottles on the sink, the box with towels on the floor, the floor mat, the small shelf above the bathtub. Two of the perfume bottles, I did. The pink, sweet tray is from Victoria Fasken ( she has no home page, but just google her) The beautiful pink carafe     was a gift from a dear friend; Tove ( she used to have a dollhouse shop in Bergen, and thats where I purchased the lamp) Enjoy the bath!!

The Sewing room!



Finally I found the inspiration I´v been looking for; Lea´s book of course! The room vas dull and hard to decorate, much to do with the bedroom wallpaper! It´s not easy to find something to match it. I like it when two room´s don´t collide in style or color. Originally I wanted the small fireplace in the bedroom, but came up with that idea too late!! So when looking through the book for the 100 time...ah ha...that´s what I´ll do; make new walls on cardboard, and the fireplace of course! It was so easy and fun to do. But I have only made the wall you see in the picture. Now I have to do the rest of the room...not so fun, but I must!!! The poor french woman has no hair
(I am going to make her a wig, eventually!) and no clothes, except what she´s wearing. No wonder she´s sewing!!
I would like you to give me an idea of a french name that suites her. The wig will be dark, maybe long hair..... and the time period is now! Just look at her washer!!

Some improved pictures of the utility/laundry room.

Snowing!!!! No it´s too early!!!!














This is the view from my working room. I look out on two of the oldest houses in Rena, the brown one is used as a kindergarden! But it´s too early for winter and snow. This means that I am looking at 6 months of cold winter!!! My what have I done!! Okay...this is what you get moving away from the west coast and the rain ( would I like rain for 6 months ? NOOO)
So here we go, winter is here!


I also like to show you my working room. I am lucky, I have a lot of space..too much maybee...it´s always looking messy!! Working on the sewing room, new pictures tomorrow :D


Look into this blog!!!






















You just have to visit this blog and look at all the wonderful flower´s!

Utility room in the french house.










The utility room in the house is almost ready. It needs a bit more of character, some utility´s..... maybe?


I made the shelf with the metal hook´s. I also made the little hanger. I bought the dust broom at a fair... not sure where...
The fantastic bottles on top of the washer and the bucket was bought at the Kensington dollhouse festival(www.dollshousefestival.com) from Country Treasures.
(Kensington dollhouse festival has a christmas fair the 22 of November, and I am visiting!!!!!)
I also bought the wonderful laundry basket there, from lovely Zara Thomson Ribeaud. (www.zarathomsonribeaud.com)
Notice that one of the pictures of the shelf has different "utility´s"...
looks a lot better with the cute boxes from Rosanna.. dont you think?
And I apologize for the poor quality of the pictures...I will be back with something better !!!!

Welcome to new followers!

Strange picture to post you might say... well I promised Marlies to look for the wallpaper I used in the bedroom of the french house, and I found it! It´s put together from a piece of paper, used for drawers, from
Laura Ashley. Anyone who likes it is free to use it. Just click on the picture, it´s then in the right size, and print from that!

Selling real miniature watercolor pictures!

I was supposed to be selling these at the Stavanger fair, but could not be there. So I am trying to sell them here instead. They are painted by a norwegian artist: Grethe Selbæk Solemsløkk. Just google her and read about her.
The small watercolor paintings are painted on my request, so they are quite exclusive. They measure about 3 cm X 2.5 cm, some of them a little bit smaller.
1 picture costs 20 €
The first one to ask for a picture gets it, and I will remove them as they get sold!
Enjoy :D

PS: Colors will be a bit different from what they look like on your screen.
If you want to order, just refer to them as number 1 or 2 from the top.
