Black friday.....

or more like having another antique sofa for a bargain in the kitchen!

 The first one came with the house,

but was recently moved to the sun porch!

After some 28 years...

 No kitchen without a place to stretch out....

 Turning faces, I'm up for a weekend with them paint brushes.

I prefer a clean table during the day, 

but of course I never say no for a nice

 bouquet of pale pink crisp roses!

❤ Sweet weekend ❤

Anyone else up for painting

Sunny side up

at breakfast this September morning

De allra sista plantorna har lyfts in. Detta är den första hösten 

 med köksverandan inglasad och helt färdig. Till och med 

kökssoffan har fått flytta hit, då så mycket tid tillbringas här.

 This morning was really chilly outdoors, this is the first fall with the sunporch all set

and it's a big hit. With the sun it's even warmer than outdoors...... 

 I had my first cup of coffee on the porch this morning,

when deciding to finally close up my garden for this year and move some plants indoors.

 The kitchen sofa has now it's place on the sunny porch

Before...two years ago without the panes!

❤

Pretty as sugar.....

I've never shared with you before 

anything from my showroom.

This novelty from a british designer just lit up my life

and is about to be launched in Sweden.

My sample order was the quickest I've ever made

and I wanted to share it with you all.

 Pretty pretty pretty......may be ordered in any fabric

 I'm deeply in love again

❤

How about you?

Det var på tiden......

med lite envist tålamod så blev det färdigmålat.

Titanvit linolja allover....med linoljekittade spröjs.

Gissa om jag är glad att vi delvis lejde bort arbetet!

 Samtidigt som vindskivan fick sin krusidull

Citronerna väntar nu på att bli gula,
 alldeles ypperligt läge vid köksingången.

Autumn is here and this also means time's up for painting outdoors with linseed oil paint.

The temperature is not warm enough and it's getting pretty humid in the air.

We are really pleased for closing this job in time, although with some extra help.

All those panes almost drove us insane......a set of 6 antique windows and 
a pair of doors that needed to be restored now close the kitchen porch
 ...and to mention the serious amount of the linseed oil putty.

This project took almost 2 years to accomplish, from the very beginning 

finding the old veranda amongst a lot of recuperated building material

'til the very last stroke with paint. What happened in between is a long story!

The lemon tree is doing great by this kitchen entrance
