When a house is a home....


Heres me, pretty-ing up a corner with my newest lampshade in the old crochet tablecloth lace (not quite finished).
[Remember the bedside lamp from my previous post]

No matter how 'nice' I try make it, in our hideously overcrowded little house, my boys leave their stamp too. Maybe I am creating little boy interior designers (specialising in Lego creations)by accident!
Howz your weekend been???

Hi Irene, Funny I was re-arranging the pillows on the couch today and I found all these cars & toys under the pillows. My son loves making hiding holes for all his goodies. Love your cute lamps shade too. Hope you had a good weekend. Sandy x

Yes, kids can really [not] help us out sometimes when it comes to interior decorating. Thanks so much for your kind words on my blog last friday. Hugs. Simone xx

It sure looks like you´re fostering 2 coming interior designers, Irene, they will be as creative as their mom too!
I like it when you can tell that people are actually living in a home!

The lampshade is so cute! - and you´re always welcome to go through my lace collection if you become short of them in your projects!

Hugs from Helle
