wall paper

How I love this wallpaper from Minakani.
But the fact is that I much too cowardice to apply this in my house as I tend to get bored quite quickly. I like to to repaint my wall every two years or so and doing so over this precious wallpaper is a bit like throwing money down the drain.
My living room wall has had many colours already; starting with ordinary white, then mustard, dusty pink and the present dark greenish grey lasts the longest time. The 2nd picture is from Dos Family (nice blog!)

my favorite color

house spotting

There is one couple so enthusiastic about our house, so it might be sold before we know it....
Today we went for a walk in the woods near Groningen and afterwards we drove through several city neighbourhoods. Where are we going to move? Also I'm leafing through design and interior magazines and surfing the internet with whole different eyes and fantasizing (romanticizing) about our new but unknown place. I would love to have one of these rugs from Loom.

in bed

While my partner is groaning and sighing on renovating our bedbox - its floor was full with woodworm  and it was mostly cold in the bedbox because the cellar's underneath and no insulation- I lie down on the couch making the same sounds being sick from stomachache and backpains ... It was supposed to be a job for two, but my work will come with the painting and decorating the new lovely wallpaper.

open house

Am I excited! Next Friday a team from magazine '101 woonideeen' about the house...
Thanks to Bloesem a while ago.
