Homes / Interiors Image

It’s very much about how I feel, nowadays, rather then how I look. Sometimes, when you has taken on really nice stuff but you both looks & feel uncomfortable in them, then it’s as you have missed the whole point. Certainly it’s important to be & look pretty, but it’s equally important to be at ease with yourself too.

Daily inspiration, character

There is so much you can do by using simple means, to strengthen the character in a room. A blank white wooden floor, glass door, striped wallpaper & lots of frames with old designs, vintage table & stacked books is equal to a lovely room with lots of atmosphere.

Daily inspiration, curtains

Every time we move, it takes longer & longer to put up curtains in all rooms. Kind of like it’s no use, we will be moving again soon anyway. We have at least recently got new curtains in the kitchen area & the bedroom. They are thin so they let light through & are hanging on a short rail on each side of the window. Not so much to dampen any noise or to eliminate the light to pour in, but for the thin & fragile textile feeling that only fabrics can evoke.

Light meals

Light meals – I guess that it might sound boring for some. It’s not so much about light meals as to watch your weight but the more, about less heavy dishes. The older I get the more I feel for healthy food that is nutritious, which is cooked with care for people, animals & environment. Which also means concern for producers. I’ve come to a point where I’m about to decide to become vegetarian. I usually choose chicken or fish, if I’m going for meat, as it is now. Hearty salads or salads with filling has been on the menu at home for a while now. Light meals, or healthy food rather, is also current now, after Christmas buffets, although it is the natural choice in general, for my part.
