spring thoughts

a new carpet, made by my mother when she was 19, makes the carpet 50 years old, the colors fit perfectly in our house today

lots of work to do, just wondering if in 50 years my digressions also will find a new home

blue doors

my favourite part of the house is closed only by an old stable door. in spring and summer the big door is always open, in autumn it allows to  sit outside while being covered from rain and wind. to keep the cold out on winter days we made an extra set of doors; this weekend i covered them with ice blue wall paper.

 just need an extra set of blankets as the room has no heating

a room with a view

in front of our kitchen window is a huge rhododendron, it takes away a lot of daylight

but once a year it pays back with a magnificent view on purple & green
