I knew it

I've always known I'd be in Gryffindor, it makes most sense. If Neville can be a Gryffindor so can I, I think I would fit right in. So today I bought some yarn (from the evil crone) to knit my very own Gryffindorscarf, I don’t have a pattern or anything so we’ll see what happens. I would love one of those sew-on patches with the Gryffindor lion on them but where can I get one of those…?

What house should you be in?

I want this!

Being Swedish and all I guess it’s only natural for me to like this Pippi Longstocking shirt, so cute and I want it! The shirt is by Junkfood and is available here.
Junkfood also has a few Star Wars shirts, respect…

Tea Palace

I found this when I was looking for tea caddies (one of my weaknesses) and fell in love immediately. It’s from a place called Tea Palace and they have over 150 different teas and they can all be purchased in this cute satin bag. They ship worldwide and their prices aren’t insane. Plenty of great gifts for tea lovers.

Cute cups

I’m defiantly going cup shopping real soon, even though I don’t have any money. I personally think it’s tricky to find nice tea cups but now I’ve found a few, maybe I should put them on my whist list? My birthday is coming up?
First out is Mickey Mouse and Betty Boop, jumbo cups that holds 5,5dl. The pictures are from Nordstjärna.

Then there’s these, cups that I just love but they are a little too expensive for me, they can be found here

Jammies!

I love jammies and I want to walk around in mine all day long but people seem to think you’re weird if you do that. I prefer eccentric but whatever… I want a job where I can walk around in jammies and bunny slippers. When I think about it I think I have more jammy pants then regular pants… Aw, tea, jammies, something to nibble on and a movie (a storm outside the window). Found this super cut “Pirates” jammies. Oh, imagine a whole store with only jammies… like Webundies, a place with something for everyone, like this stuff. But come on, you can wear that tee along with jeans (and bunnie slippers).

Jewelry...

Cute bracelets from Decarabia (which Hélène introduced me to) that I like but I have to say that they don’t look that hard to do, they look rather simple but still… I know they wouldn’t look this good if I tried to make them myself at home so I’ll leave it to them.

Urban Outfitters

Plenty of cute stuff there, why isn’t there an Urban Outfitter in Sweden? Why can’t we have any cool stores? I mean they have Star Wars tees, that alone is enough for me to love them. Aw, Han is such a cutie! Why aren't they shipping to Sweden? That's just mean...

Deadly Girlz

This is “clothes” that I wouldn’t have the guts to wear other than in my dreams that is. Like them but, is it me? Not so sure. But it looks like an Alexander Henry print doesn’t it?

Love them!

Want them, need them! They are so cool, only complain is that they are not tea jars but salt and pepper shakers. More info here (or at least there used to be), sometimes found at Amazon or at Entertainment Earth

Beautiful dolls

Russian born Marina Bychkova makes beautiful but sometimes disturbing dolls. Her take on the old beloved story of Snow White and her Prince was a new one to me. Hélène was the one linking me to this page. The Imperial Concubine is probably my favorite, look at that face…

Photos by Ilva-Sableye

When looking around on the net for some inspiration I found this stuff by ilva-sableye. And I just love rusty old things and worn-out buildings; I just wish I could capture it like this woman does, and before everything like that round here is gone, which means I have to become a much better photographer really fast.
There’s also some foggy pictures that I just love, making me ALMOST wish it was autumn and dark and scary around here.

Green & Cozy

That is defiantly the style I like when it comes to gardens. I don’t want too much color or sunlight, I like green shade. So when I ended up on Marie Claire Maison website I was pleased to look at their inspiration picture. I want a greenhouse to store plants in the winter, have tea all year around, plant seeds so I can have all sorts of plants and flowers at a fair price every year. I have a spot for the greenhouse and everything but it’s the money issue that’s the problem, like always.

Accident

I never really think about doormats but when I came across this one by accident I just had to show it, but I think it might look nicer without the words on it. But, still, it’s a cool doormat and you can find it here at this French site: La Chaise Longue
