Home decor inspiration

Dagens gladmelding er at til helgen flytter jeg og min kjære til ny leilighet. Eller, det er jo bare opp trappa herfra. Iallefall fikk vi tilbud om det her i forrige uke og det tok ikke lang tid før vi bestemte oss for å si ja. Det skulle ikke så mye til for både separat kjøkken og større stue med peis og veranda fristet veldig. Leiligheten vi bor i er flott på alle måter, men stue og kjøkken er i ett rom, og du sitter i stua og ser på oppvasken... Det skal rett og slett bli litt godt å få separert aktivitetsområder ordentlig, og ha et større område å leve på. 

Og det er vell ikke så uvanlig at når man skal flytte til nytt hjem så begynner lysten til å ordne det å boble opp. Nå har ikke jeg råd til noen drastiske tiltak, men det er jo mange små og rimelige DIY's man kan gjøre selv. Så tenkte jeg skulle dele litt inspirasjon~.

Ellers håper jeg du har en fin tirsdags morgen :)

Just a bunch of home DIY project to inspire to make some decor! In a few days me and my boyfriend is moving to another appartment, one story up in the same building. The living room is bigger and gives us more space to live on and the kitchen is in a separate room. So I want to make decors and decorate propersly ~

Bedroom/workspace glory in progress

It suddenly hit me that I haven't yet shared a proper post of my workspace/bedroom. I haven't actually shared much that show how I live in general. I have so many ideas for my & M's home, but I never get to realise them due to no income. Having completed a BA grade in Interior design, I definitely have many ideas for our living space. But one dream got real, the laptop/worktable in the corner of the bedroom. No where else in the apartment where this was possible, so it had to be here. 

Slo meg plutselig at jeg aldri har posten no ordentlig post av arbeids/soverommet! Har forsåvidt ikke delt så veldig mye som viser hvordan jeg bor i det hele og det store. Man blir liksom aldri ferdig med en ide når man ikke har penger som strekker til. Og jeg som er utdannet som interiør designer har så mye i hjemmet jeg vil ordne på. Men en drøm ble real, det smale skrivebordet på soverommet. Ingen andre plasser det er mulighet for arbeidsplas så da ble det her! 

The table is originally free standing and with 5 legs. But we decided to drop two legs on one side, chop of 10 cm of the depth and fix it to the wall. And so it became a perfect workspace table for a laptop, with place for a notebook and the coffee cup on the side. Some storage times is in place, but I want more! Some boxes/drawers beneath and some shelves in the corner would be perfect!

Bordet er orginalt et frittstående bord med 5 ben, men vi droppet de to siste på ene siden, kuttet av 10 cm av bredden og skrudde det fast i veggen. Og dermed ble det et herlig skrivebord med plass til laptopen og en notatbok på siden. Litt oppvaring her kommet på plass, men ønsker mer! Noen bokser/skudder under og hyller i gjørnet ville gjort susen.

The table have been split up in two zones, one for me and one for M, and the corner have been dedicated to my old companion - my very old canon printer. So wonderful to have it again, lived without it in England... Have also hung up two cork organisers, one to each of us. Was wonderful to get certain stuff off the table and up on the wall. I originally wanted to paint them white, but haven't bothered to purchase white spray paint yet...But, I am definitely very very happy with the space so far, as long as we manage to keep it tidy.

Bordet er delt opp i to soner; en for meg og en for M, og hjørnet har blitt dedikert til min gamle trofaste skriver. Herlig å ha den i hus igjen! Bodde uten den i england... Har også fått opp to korketavler, altså en til hver av oss. Godt å få organisert og hengt opp litt av hvert. Ville egentlig male dem hvite, men har ikke fått tak i eller orket å kjøpe hvit spraymaling enda.. Men er meget fornøyd så langt, så lenge vi klarer å holde bordet ryddig.

Instagram #4-5.2013

Flash of the past, I feel like a time traveller looking back this. Okay, that was a little inspired by Continuum, a series I am currently watching. My point here is, all these pictures of the past is still full of emotion, I can still feel how I felt. The stress, the tiredness, and just wanting it to finish. Now, although it feels the same it feels okay. Some part of me keep asking myself if I would do this again. There is a honest and big no as an answer. But I wouldn't feel as happy as I am now if I never did it. So many years of school, and I am finally done with my education!

Instagram 20.03~22.03

My eyes are burning, and all I want to is to sleep. But I can't help but feeling bad for not doing the number one thing I love to do on my free time - blogging. Truth is I don't have much time left of the day when I pack my things and go home for the day. And I rather spent those few hours eating, staring out in the air, listen to music and get ready for bed. Ready for a new day to do something else I really love to do - design interior. 

You may call me a workaholic for actually loving being so busy with something. But that is the truth. So I am pulling this blog on a semi-hiatus. Nothing big, nothing to worry about. I will still try to blog when I can, and I'll try to blog though my phone. But there will be no high quality pictures, long post where I write and ramble. 

Blogging forward to 16th of May will mostly be work in progress pictures, instagrams, inspiration, and in the moment snaps from my phone without much text. Like this I will still be able to update. I am after all handing in my major project, technical project and marketing project soon. Until the 16th of may, PICTURES:

Korean Ginseng, Rain & Trinity College~

Back to UK means back to a busy schedule. But the motivation is there, because in one moth I have handed in all my projects. Up till then my blogging might be random, there might be days of no blogging and there might be days with several updates. I don't know, and I wont promise anything. Still, there is time for a Instagram update.
