H&M HOME – new store!
Thursday March 10th, 2011 by in Interior

It´s an exciting day here in Oslo, Norway today! H&M opens the country’s first and the worlds 6th “H&M Home store”! For the first time in Norway we can buy interior products from H&M Home in store – Oh joy!

Their concept is quite different compared to other shops. All the items are like little magnets and with a small magnetic board you can put together your “shopping cart”. The board will get scanned at the register, and you retrieve the goods there after you have paid.

These products are just a little peek of what they actually have in their home collection. You can view more on their homepage.
 
I´m unfortunately too busy to visit their new store this week, but I will go there next week for sure! Maybe I can take some photo´s for you as well.
Have you ever been to a H&M Home store before?
I´m overwhelmed by all the nice feedback I got on my DIY headbord/Bedroom yesterday! I´ll take your advise and not paint the pallets, and keep them as they are *smile*
Thank you all!
xoxo, Nina

DIY: Headboard!
Wednesday March 9th, 2011 by in DIY

When I showed you the pallet ideas yesterday, I also promised you that I would show you what I have used my pallets for. So without further introduction – meet our new headboard!

I´m actually quite pleased with the result, but I´m not sure if I should paint them or not. What do you think? I´m thinking either black or white. I kind of like this natural color as well….
So what do you think? You can see more photos of our bedroom on Stylizimo.com.

Wish you all a wonderful day! Here in Oslo it’s snowing A LOT at the moment, so it seems that we have to wait a bit longer for spring.

DIY: Pallets
Tuesday March 8th, 2011 by in DIY

Today I want to share these cool Euro pallet ideas from Stylizimo´s members. It´s amazing how many ways one can actually use a pallet as a furniture…

Cool, right? I actually have Euro pallets in my apartment as well, but I´ve used them for something else. I´ll tell you more about it later *smile*

Thank you Noe på Hjertet, Siljesol and Fjasevashuset for sharing these cool DIY ideas! They are very inspiring.
If any of you readers have DIY projects that you want to share, you are welcome to upload pictures on Stylizimo.com

Our living room 
Monday March 7th, 2011 by in My Home

I promised you that I would show you some more pictures of our living room, and now that everything is in its place I have snapped some pictures…

As you can see it´s not very colorful but from time to time I add colors using colorful flowers. The magazines on the ladder are also bringing some color into our living room.

I hope you like my new living room, and that it gave you some inspiration. I have taken some more pictures, and I will be adding them on Stylizimo.

I´ve also seen that a lot of you have joined as members on Stylizimo.com, and that makes me really happy! I hope you all will enjoy the community and that we can inspire each other. I love looking at the albums that you upload.

If you´re not a member of the Stylizimo community yet, you can sign up for FREE here (You can choose between English or Norwegian language up in the right corner). Everyone is welcome, and it´s optional if you want to upload photos or not.

Enjoying the weekend
Sunday March 6th, 2011 by in Interior

Hello you, and hello Sunday! The sun is shining and it seems like it´s going to be a wonderful day here in Oslo today! Our weekend is all about the World Cup event (which is in Oslo now), enjoying the great weather and eating freshly baked cinnamon rolls. I also got some new interior magazines that I´m enjoying – the weekend couldn´t be more perfect!

I also made these cappuccinos with hearts on. To make the hearts I made a stencil out of paper and sprinkled the cinnamon over the cappuccino. It’s always nice to do the little extra. 
Unfortunately I don´t have the right cappuccino cups yet, but it tasted delicious anyway *smile*



I hope you are enjoying your weekend as well. Happy Sunday!
