12 PURPLE AND GREEN

.

One of my favorite colour combinations
Also the text colours of the blog
Mixed with some natural elements, I find the Spring colllection from Bloomingville so relaxing and "light mooded".

8 MY KITCHEN SHELF - NOW

.
.
.
I like to change the content in my open kitchen shelf from time to time.

Now, I want items in it with flashy colours to embrace the spring coming.

Some boxes of Kusmi tea, mugs from Greengate and Pantone, colourful glasses from Rice, a coffee box, some boxes of baking soda and vanilla from Freia, and old mug from Figgjo Flint.

4 HOMEMADE CRISPY BREAD

.
.
Last weekend I made this extremely easy, but tasty crispy bread. Try it, you will not regret.

♥ 4dl whole meal flour

♥ 4 dl large rolled oats

♥ 2 dl sunflower seeds

♥ 1 dl sesame seeds

♥ 1 dl linseeds

♥ 1 tea spoon salt

♥ 7 dl water

Blend all the dry ingredients and add the water to a thick, sticky pastry. Cover two boards to put in the oven.

160 degrees C for approximately 1 hour using the warm air function for best result. One board at the bottom, one at the top. Change place at half time.

Cut the bread in pieces and cool on the grate.

2 CERAMISTS ANNE LANGHØJ

.

Where did creativity go?  Where did time go?

The answer to both questions is: WORK. January flied away with enormous amounts of work, leaving no energy or time back to either make anything, write anything or visit the lovely blogs I usually follow. I hope it will change a little the next weeks! I really miss making things, writing and especially seeking inspiration in the blogs I read.

I just found this amazing work from the Danish ceramist Anne Langhøj. What shapes! I adore the small vases! I know that Retrovilla sells her art work, but I haven’t found seller in Norway yet. I would love to have some of her work in the window. Don’t you?

6 NEWS FROM HOUSE DOCTOR

.

.

.

It’s always great news when Danish House Doctor launches their new catalog. For 2011, some of the themes are Raw, Living with White, and Color Notes.

The industrial look is maintained from the Autumn 2010 collection, but with a lighter touch. Pale colours, and a lot of natural elements. And the best of all: They use a lot of butterflies as decor!

I love it!
