Having the house to myself for a few days got the creativity flowing, so when I finished painting the living room with the new color I got inspired to make some changes to what was hanging on the wall as well. Luckily, I had a canvas laying in the basement so with some good music on the stereo and a mix of refreshing paint I got going.
I´m pretty happy with the result as it complements well the new energy of the room, but with the continuous changes made in this house I will have to see how long it stays on the wall.

Dear Nina,
the painting made by yourself looks perfect to the living room. I like your refreshing of the room very much.
Painting with good music and enough time is like a meditation exercise.
I wish a lot of time for those experiences.

Thank you so much! That means a lot to hear.
The painting is amazing and the wall really fits together with it. Love the result!
Who is the painting by?
Thank you so much! The painting is by me 🙂
I do the same when My Hubby is not around, nothing like getting the house to yourself with uninterrupted creativity time is there?
I know. It´s lovely to have some time alone…
Wonderful pictures! Do you remember what Colour you have on the wall behind the sofa? It is so pretty!
Thank you! The color is called Prekestolen. It´s only available here in Norway, but it should not be difficult to find a similar one.
Thank you! The color is called Prekestolen. It´s produced by a Norwegian company called Fargerike.
I love the wall color Nina! 😀 So fresh, yet comfortable…
Thank you so much! 🙂
Så utrolig flott bilde 🙂
Syns stuen er så flott med denne fargen på veggen.
Tusen takk, snille. Det er veldig hyggelig å høre.
I really like your painting. It’s a really awesome piece of art. It inspires me to paint again soon.
Ha en kjempeflott dag. 😉
Thank you! That means a lot to hear!
I hope you will find time to paint soon…
You did great by painting this canvas yourself! It is perfect with your new wall color.
Thank you so much! 🙂
Love the painting!!!!
Thank you! That makes me very happy to hear.
Jag älskar din tavla! Skulle mer än gärna köpa den av dig om du skulle kunna tänka dig att sälja den ngn dag?! Alternativt om du ville göra en liknande? 🙂 Maila mig i så fall gärna på ceciliagave@gmail.com. Vore såååååå glad om du kunde tänka dig det!! 🙂
Så hyggelig å høre! Jeg sender deg en mail 🙂
Vilken otroligt snygg tavla du målat! Blir väldigt inspirerad av din blogg och dina bilder, du har en inredningsstil som är helt i min smak! Måste fråga var bordet är ifrån? Tycker det är så fint!

Så hyggelig at du liker mitt maleri, Isabell. Det er alltid litt skummelt å legge ut bilder av egenprodusert kunst. Det er jo veldig personlig…
Bordet er et gammelt Ikea bord som jeg har kjøpt brukt. Det er dessverre ikke i produksjon lenger.
Nina
The color is so fresh, i like a lot.
and your Art-Work ist just great!
Thank you so much, Tanja. That means a lot!
Wow, I was just thinking this morning that I would love a painting in my wall but worried of how expensive that could be. You inspired me to work on creating my own. As a designer and illustrator, I believe I can do it??? Thank you for this!
Of course you can! You should try yourself – I bet you gonna love it! 🙂
Nina
Hi, just found your blog, love it so far. But I must ask you, your sofa, where is it from?! Just the kind I’ve been looking for, perfect size and colour. Would be really thankful if you could point me in the direction where I could find it. I live in Sweden 🙂
Hi Martina,
Thank you so much!
My sofa is from Ikea. It´s called Karlstad. So it shouldn´t be that difficult to find it in Sweden 🙂
Nina
i was just looking at pictures of your appartment in a magazine where the wall was still without colour – funny to come here and see that it looks different now 🙂 like it even better than before!
I´m glad you like it with the color as well. Change is good 🙂
Did you see my home in Couch Magazin?
Hei Nina. Er så imponert, ble helt forelsket i maleriet ditt. Har du malt bilder før? Det er nesten så jeg har lyst å prøve selv. Bildet ditt er lekkert mot den nye farge i stua.
Hei Mette,
Så hyggelig at du liker maleriet mitt. Jeg har malt en del før ja, men det går ofte alt for lenge mellom hver gang.
Syntes du skal bare prøve jeg. Det fine med malerier, er at det er bare å male over igjen dersom du ikke er fornøyd 😉
Nina
GORGEOUS painting, fits perfectly in your new living room!
Hi Nina
I love that plaid. Where is it from?
Thank you! You´ll find the plaid at Story North: http://www.storynorth.com/Twist-a-Twill-Blanket-p/twisttwillblanket.htm
Nina 🙂
Dear Nina,
your living room looks great. It could be mine.
I love your couch table so much and wanna have this, too 🙂
Where is it from?
Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you, Maren. I´m glad to hear that you like my living room.
The coffee table is an old Ikea table, and are no longer in production. I bought mine used ( second-hand ).
Nina
Oh, what a pity. Many thanks for your quick reply.
Best wishes from germany,
Maren
Hei! Elsker stua di! Kan jeg spørre hvor stort teppet er? om det er 140 ganger 200 eller 200 ganger 300? 🙂
Tusen takk 🙂 Teppet er 200×300
Nina
I echo all the earlier compliments re. your artwork – beautiful! I also love the rug in this photo; are you able to share the brand or source?
Thank you! The rug is from Ikea 🙂
I like this corner so much, could you tell me with which stuff are your walls made ? Is it wall paper ? Thank you!
Love this painting so much <3
Thank you 🙂
