The mask

I´ve had some trouble sleeping lately. For a long time I´ve also thought about making a lavender mask for yoga meditations. Yestarday I finally made it, from left overs I keep in a box. (I made some pillows from teatowels and just kept going. Those of you following me on Instagram already know). This is how I did it.

• I used an old mask as model. I cut of the band so I could reuse it on this new one. 
• Cut my own shape around the old one.
• Put the right side against right and sew around. Put the band in between. Leave a gap. 
• Turn inside out, so that the inside comes out.
• Put lavender inside.
• Sew the hole by hand or machine. I first did it by hand, then i made zig zag around the whole mask. 
• Go to bed, your sofa or yoga mat.
• Relax.

Grønne enger

Å, la meg ligge i grønne enger.
La min hage bli grønn og fin. 
Gjem naboens jungel. 

Andres rot og skrot. 

Gi meg grønne fingre.

Omså bare en liten.

Og tålmodighet.

Lukk øynene. 

Pust.

...og det hjelper i et øyeblikk. 

Lovenest

Finally. Right before our house anniversary, we got these lamps up. They came with this house we bought 3 years ago. We gave them some tender, love and care with layers of spray paint. Then they relaxed in our basement for some years. Hurray for sayings like "Just do it". And did I mention, I love our bedroom. It´s simple and full of light. At this time of the year, though. 

New vs old

  

Old vs new. My middle name. It´s such a cliché. But cliches were made for a reason. They are good. 

Geometri

 

Our house is full of it. But hey, you have to use geometry to build a house. I like geometry. But that´s old news. How about you? Do you show it? Take a look here if you want to see more. Or look at finnish blogs. They are really good at it.
