Happy Birthday!

I have started at my new job and in all the excitement my blog has been slightly neglected, but I will try and pick up the threads again. Many gorgeous flowers to show you guys :)

Well Happy Birthday to my sister Solveig! She naturally gets a present from my new work place.

Magnolia, I just loooooooove these and wish I lived in a warmer climate to be able to have one in the garden.

Hidden away in a corner I found these stunning vases, they thought these were kitchy old lady vases? I thought they were stunning!! Haha well how does one account for taste?

Flowers the size of side plates ;)

Too precious

Here is to things that are just to gorgeous to throw away. My favourite mug has been patched together and sadly so, but I am so happy to be able to use it. I think the beauty of local handcrafted goods is one of the things that give having possessions meaning. This is made by Freakalee in Port Elizabeth, my little souvenir.

Seeing is believing

It is the strangest thing that I am surrounded by so many talented and beautifully minded photographers! I consider it a little gift from above to make my life a gorgeous journey of seeing! I have run out of compliments and still receive the most beautiful images like pearls on a thread that never ends. Here from a cousin who makes my day with her pictures

Thank you Annie, your pictures are like a daily devotional

Good design

I was so lucky to pick up a piece of furniture that I cherish beyond words. The first response from family and many was how ugly it was, but Wow I love it! There have been many suggestions as to how to improve it, but I love its originalness. It has 56 drawers and homes ALL my small stash and I have a lot of that! 

....and as they say, good function is a great design!

World Cup mania!

Well, there has not been to many posts lately due to Skiing mania in Oslo. Wow it has been so amazing. Seeds and soil sit on my counter waiting for some attention and are not getting any! I really hate sport but it has been especially exciting to be Norwegian.

Sanselig sommer

Her kommer en ny og spennende vår bok! Og den er Norsk ;)

Gleder meg veldig å få tak i den.

Beautiful Ranunculae

Oh I just absolutely adore these flowers, wonder where I can get hold of bulbs in these kinda colours. Such a gorgeous mix. Today I got a new job where I will be able to source wonderful plants that I dream of!!!! So these celebrate my day! :)

Divinely Yummy
