DIY ________ tube lamp





 I could not resist the temptation to make a lamp out of one of my empty cardboard rolls that I have saved when I bought poster. According to me you can not have too many light sources at home in the winter and the light I used was only two watt low energy lamp that gives a dull and cozy light. 

You need
.a cardboard roll
.scissors
.black tape
.low 2 watt bulb
.lamp cord

Start to thread the lamp cord through the tube and when you are satisfied with how much you want it to show out of the tube fasten it with the tape. I let the lamp stay inside the tube because I used 2 watt low energy lamp which does not get hot, never use lamps that are stronger than two watt for this. But if you want to be sure about it all and just to be on the safe side, let the lamp stick out of the tube. And last I made a hole on the tube and hang it on to the wall. Done!

INTERIOR ______ ecoration





A few days ago I got a mail about this exellent initiative by the green side of IKEA called ecoration. Ecoration has collaborated with Swedish fashion designer Helena Hörstedt who transformed a used IKEA chair into a unique art object. 

This gorgeous chair is now for sale at auction and the sale price is donated to WWF and for their tropical forest support. The auction will run until today tuesday, October 23 at. 23.00. More about the collaboration here, and go to the auction here. 

The pictures are styled by my dear class mate from Beckmans akademi Hanna Meijer and photographed by John Gripenholm and Christian Gustavsson.

INTERIOR ___________ BOXES






My favorit parfyme Byredo parfyms has the most good looking boxes for their products. It is impressive when not only the product is awesome, but the packaging is awesome too! Their boxes are perfect also for storing small items etc.

INSPIRATION // shapes





I really love shapes. Especially the round one, so I painted a circle on my wall! I totally
agree with Joyce Carol and what she once said -I never change, I simply become more myself.

INTERIOR______ LEANING LAMP




One of the interior details that I love are lamps! It has probably never been easier to make a floor lamp than this leaning lamp that I made to myself. I used a metal pipe and a lamp with cabel, that was all. And to get the cable stuck I filed a groove in to the pipe. Done!
