Bedroom ideas!

I have been trying to change some corners in my bedroom, but I realised that sometimes this is not only about placing or ... replacing the pieces of furniture we have!

I always find it so exciting to buy some curtains or wall murals and this way I get to refresh the atmosphere and my mood!

I also like fine bedlinen or windowseats: it is simply amazing the effect they create and I adore to reinvent myself by trying new colours and textures!

I have to admit that I need to find inspiration from brilliant interior designers and every time I visit some of their websites I end up overwhelmed by the high quantity and quality of really interesting items we can easily order online!

These are some of the names and design labels I came across in the last few days and I want to invite them to inspire you all!

I hope you will like them!

Proverbs

This post is about proverbs: I like to discover the wisdon they treasure and the way people used to thinkis amazing!


I am a great fan of saying and idioms, too but and this time I will focus on some Norwegian proverbs.
