Life at Jenny´s house

Saturday morning at our house. I burnt myself on some damn hot oil yesterday. Now I´m framing pictures with one hand. Lucky for me Jens took the kids swimming.

1. Sneaking up on the master of silly: Leslie Nielsen. Been watching a lot of Police Squad lately. Click here for a clip.
2. Framing myself
3. Drinking coffee..
4. Avoiding to open this stinky business.
5. Watching Tårtan.
6. Using Gaga as my paperweight.

Books all over the place at Jenný friends house and a quote from John Waters

I have a friend who loves books. She is going to build a huge bookshelf for them. But until then they are all over her home. I love it. Looks so cozy.

 

Since this post is mostly pictures I want to end it with a quote from my idol John Waters:

“It wasn’t until I started reading and found books they wouldn’t let us read in school that I discovered you could be insane and happy and have a good life without being like everybody else.”

Dos visit Boråstapeter’s wallpaper factory

When I was in Göteborg I also took the time to go to Borås – a town 40 minutes from Göteborg know for it’s textile and wallpaper industry. It’s als o the home of Boråstapeter and Mr Perswall

I love visiting factories. To see how things are made. I still have a very vivid picture from a how it’s made show on Tv from when I was a kid. In one of them they showed how to make rubber boots and in another how the red color in candy comes from lice. And I have been addicted ever since.

Apparently this way of making the wallpapers is really old. Just look at these fantastic patterns!

I was a bit unlucky cause they just cleaned the printers before I came.

I guess I have to go back to see more!

I wish I had a working space like this.

bye bye
