DIY LAMPSHADE

Yesterday when I had some time over I decided to do a DIY that I´ve been thinking to do for a long time. 

Transform a large plastic bag into a lampshade. Ever since I saw the wonderful lamp of Mark eden Schooley  

I have wanted to do something like that myself. But instead of using fabric I used a large white plastic bag, 

the suspension system is made of thin steel wire. 

MONDAY SNAPSHOTS

I think It feels more and more spring in the air, so yesterday I took my camera with me and went 

to the port to shoot some pics there. Thats why my monday snapshots is a mix of all the details 

that I love now, modern retro, marine, my yellow wooden kitchen, and of course black and silver details!

MY WORK

 This is the stylings project that I said in my last post I would reveal soon. A while ago I was asked to style the 

work of a Swedish designer Ylva Skarp. Because she is well known designer in Sweden I felt really honored 

when she asked me to do this. Ylva just launched four new prints  that I styled for her and here are the pictures.

Ylva Skarp handwrites her letters and turns them into patterns. She places the patterns on ceramics, textiles, 
paintings or prints and much more.  I really love the crafty expression that is her signature for her work. You can 
find more information about her lovely products on her webbsite here, or from the facebook site here. 

WEDNESDAY MIX

 I have been working the last days with a really nice project that I can show you soon. It is my first own stylings 

assignment since I finished my interior stylist training at Beckmans academy, yey! Anyhow I´ll post a picture from our 

livingroom today, here is no big changes except that I will make a new lamp shade over the kitchen table soon 

when I have more time, hopefully next week. The huge Tine K home basket that I have painted black moves 

around a lot because my kids thinks it makes an excellent a cottage upside down :)))  See you later!

NEW LIGHT

The spring light creates such a lovely atmosphere in our home, it´s feels like the rooms starts living again. 

I had little christmas recently when i got a fine package with Therese Sennerholt postcards in the mail, they 
turned out to be a perfekt on my empty wall with some black dots :) 

DIY X3

I love it when you can use one thing in several different ways, like this ordinary vase that can appear in 

these three ways in my home. As a pen storage, filled with lots and lots of pens and other stuff or..

 as a transparent pot where I put in my favorite plant cactus.

Or when you tape a picture inside it will become an different photo frame. 
This last one is one of my favorite. Wish you all a great week! Annaleena xx 
The vase comes from Tine K. home.

PRIMAVERA!

 It is spring out there and the feelings are on the topp. I really agree these wise words of beautiful Helena Christensen.
Time for some primavera intoxicating :) Have a nice weekend! Annaleena xoxo

DIY LETTERS

I really like letters as a decoration so here comes one more way to write letters on the wall!

 This time I used with my flower support sticks that became an A on the wall. Lucky me that 
the letter A is so simple to shape :) I used regular tape to attach the sticks, because it leaves no 
ugly marks and the tape is easy to remove. 

MONDAY SNAPSHOTS

I had to share with you some pics from our loft today. I love the place, I used to paint watercolours there when I had 

some time left. But I am hanging there still a lot. I took some new photos in the loft of a new pyramid modell that will 

be also available in my webbsite/shop that opens soon, I am so excited about it :) See you later!

WORK IN PROGRESS

Today we have had really sunny day here in Swedish west-coast,  I love these lazy sundays! 

As you perhaps have noticed so I moved down my DIY basket lampshade that I had over the kitchen

 table. The lighting over the table looks like this now. You can see how I did the basket lampshade here.  

What I will have there instead, is a work in progress. I´ll tell you about it more soon.

WEEKEND MIX+DOTS

My weekend mix is short today, I´m feeling pretty sick so Im just playing with picture editing

 at my computer and posting some simple dot pics from my working space. See you later :)

COLOURFUL BLACK AND WHITE

Welcome my colourful B&W spring! What more can I say ;)

DIY UPSIDE DOWN HANGER

I fell directly for this DIY upside down hanger when I saw it here. It was so easy to do, I love it! 

Jag föll direkt för den här enkla upp och ner klädhängare/kroken när jag såg den här,

Testade direkt att göra den själv. Den här går under kategorin, roliga och snabba DIY´S!
