Midsummer in Sweden


So this photo is taken the night before midsummer. It is 9.30 in the evening and I have not altered the picture at all. So serene and beautiful, but I'm asking myself if the long winters are worth it. I haven't
got the answer but I'm enjoying the summer. Staying up late sewing actually

Great door.Getting ready for the outdoor life with Pyramid Washbag. Marianne Wie has photographed
for VillaPernilla some great shoots .
Saw this outfit in a shopwindow in Malmö. The snackbags come in handy for a picknick. Hoping for a great weekend. We are going to be outdoors sweeping away winter in the garden and getting the summerhouse ready for visitors and summerfun.

Wood & Wallpaper walk

Today we went for a walk and at the back of our house our neighbour got his garden/wood rubbish heap.
Once a year he sets it on fire and then starts all over again. Of course I had to have a peak when I saw new rubbish. There was these old layers of wallpaper with the different wallpaperdesigns. It looks beatiful  and I like the idea of seeing these different times laying there together.
 I reminded me of all the wallpapers I have collected when doing up our house. I havent manged to throw them away but have collected them as a record to pass on. Our house was built 1910 so now it's 100 years old  and I think it would be a great idea to have a party for the house. Well any excuse for a party I think.

Wallpaper layers found on the heap.
More of the same.



Scraps of wallpaper found in our house.
After the walk I went inside and looked threw the wallpaper scraps I've collected. It would be great to have them reproduced or even better turn them into textil prints. Sometimes I amuse myself looking threw tapetorama webshop for similar type off wallpapers. They have a nice collection of old wallpapers.
