Painting_Nina Holst

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.

Prekestolen

In only two days I tested two different colors ( this is what you to when your better half is away *smile*. ) . The first one; “Late sommerdager” was a bit too fresh for me, but the second one called “Prekestolen” is perfect and exactly what I was looking for! The room is much more calm and soothing now, and the room completely changed the character and got a lot more personality. I have finally find MY color and I love it so much.

What do you think?

Bergens Tidende

Yesterday there was a interview of me in the “Home & Interior” magazine that came with Bergens Tidende ( the newspaper in Bergen, Norway ). The big surprise was that they had used my photo on the cover of the magazine – the bedroom that is soon up for a little makeover 😉

You can read the magazine here ( in Norwegian )

I hope you all will have a fabulous Saturday. Make sure to do something nice for yourself..

 

Late sommerdager

Yesterday I got an urgent need of painting something, and I ended up painting two of the walls in our living room with “Late sommerdager” from Fargerike. I have to say that I thought the color I had chosen would end up a bit different, and I got quite a shocked when I came down this morning (after finishing up last night). It´s a super fresh color, but personally I would prefer it more toned down and maybe with a little more blue in it. I guess I have to find the energy to do the job all over again, after finding a new color… Any suggestions?
