I’m into shabby chic this summer again. It is a great summer style if you ask me. Flowers and light and a bit wabi-sabi – what can better bring out the sunshine of home life. I’ve made a a rosy flower pot, flower decorations for midsummer with roses and now two pillows with a distinct […]

For midsummer I took some of the rose cups I thrifted last week and made my first flower arrangement for the table. Roses of course, from the garden. I just love how beautiful they look together on the white table cloth. This is true shabby chic, a style I’m diving into this summer with my […]
Suitcase decoupage and a crafty picnic

Are you a Shabby Chic chick?
It’ sad, so sad, but this week I’m gonna have to return the book Shabby Chic by Rachel Ashwell to the library! I’ve re-loaned it three times (which is the limit) and read it through and looked at the pictures with yearning many times. (But if I blog about it, I might be able to […]
