This year we didn't have time to do any preparatio

This year we didn't have time to do any preparations before Easter. Here in Ostrobothnia, it was still not too late to decorate branches this morning.

We continued our Easter tradition by decorating branches with wrapping tissues that I have collected over the years.

Wherever you are, I wish you could have an environment that you enjoy being in. 🖤

This is my new office where I moved in a couple of days ago. I deeply enjoy being and working here. 😌

Being in this space feels like a dream I don't want to end. This color on the wall, all my things finding their places and looking like they were meant to be there. ✨

Nothing is taken for granted these days. Nobody knows what tomorrow brings to us. Even if this dream will end someday, sooner or later, it was worth living. 🙏🏻

I wish you all the best! Have a pleasant Easter Holidays! 🌿

This is my new office!

I just love these big windows and all that natural light. 🌞

Currently, I'm making a small renovation in this space. Walls have to be painted and some small stuff done.

Can't wait for the moving day. 🙏🏻

FEBRUARY // I decided to purchase something every month of the year for our kitchen. This is the purchase of February.

2. OLD DOORS

Remember this 3D visualization? The small room next to our kitchen. It used to be our dining room. Now it’s the bedroom of our younger child. This was the original plan for the new wall between the kitchen and the room.

Currently, there is no wall yet. I've been looking for old doors that I could use and the wall could be built according to the measurements of those doors.

The doors are now found. There is not going to be three doors like in this visualization, but two doors that are higher than these.

Building the wall and painting the doors is going to be a ‘summer project’.

SUNDAY // Planning small changes to this wall at home.

I decided to remove the old collage of photos. This poster is temporarily hanging from an old nail placed too high.

Now I'm thinking about what would I like there to be instead. It might be something that I'm not even aware of yet. ✨

Lazy Saturday at home. Almost. ______________ Tä

Lazy Saturday at home. Almost.
______________

Tänään taisin tehdä jo hieman etuajassa helmikuun hankinnan keittiöömme, kun kävimme noutamassa vanhat torista löytämäni pariovet.

Ostotilanteessa kävi ilmi, että ovet ovat vanhasta talosta tämän samaisen kadun varrelta jossa asumme. Mikä sattuma, että päätyvät vain korttelin päähän alkuperäisestä sijainnistaan. 🖤

Ovet odottavat nyt varastossa tulevaa kesää ja kunnostusta.

This is the second Lisa Johansson-Pape light in our home. [ It also might not be the last one. ]

I really like this combination of black and brass with the off-white color on the wall. 🖤

I found this @innoluxdesign light from @tori_fi

It's been on display in a shop as a sample. Still like a new!

And just perfect for our kitchen. 🖤

During the past years we have slowly renovated our apartment. The next place we are going to renovate in our home is the kitchen.

This corner of the kitchen was already renovater last year. There is still much left to do: the ceiling, floor and the other walls of the room besides all the kitchen cabinets. Also, there is electricity and plumbing work that must be done too.

I don't know yet when we can start the project. So I decided to purchase something for our kitchen every month of the year to go forward with this project.

The purchase of January is already done...
