Miss Bossy

Hi sweets!

Thank you all so much for your get better comments, you are so sweet!! I think I must have the best readers in the world and you know what that calls for… group hug!! :D

I always find it so annoying and uninteresting to read posts about how ill a blogger feels, so I thought I’d spare you for that one, hence the slight absence this weekend. I feel much better now though, so this week it will be much more fun around here :D

After having completed my top 3 tv-shows (The Vampire Diaries, Revenge (such a good season finale) and The Lying Game), my mind searched for something else to keep me out of the boredom with and of course I ended up with my favourite thing to do – reorganise the flat! I don’t know if it was the creativity that didn’t get its outburst through the blog or if it was the pills that did their magic, but the ideas were flowing around like a thunderstorm and finally we’ve found a solution to our most troubled room – the office/spare bedroom.

Normally the reorganising happens late at night after a few glasses of wine when James is away on business trips, but this time I was in bed pointing and bossing James around. Quite amusing I must say. As mentioned the result is magnifique so the important thing to take from this is that me pointing and him moving stuff around is the best way to go ;) (Incase you didn’t get it, I’m only joking!)

Our problem with the spare bedroom/office has been to find a solution on how to fit the sofabed, which needs space to easily unfold when needed, while still having enough space for two desks with computers and all that comes with it without blocking the balcony doors and the view. We ended up taking a console table as an office desk which is long enough for two computers, but still narrow enough for the sofa to unfold. Brilliant, huh? :D

Le result of my new work space:

I’m planning on putting up a big mirror above “the desk” so that we still get to look at the view while working as we’re now facing the opposite direction. The coffee table and the dining table which we’ve been using as desks untill now have been given to a very happy cleaner, so all we need now is a new coffee table that fits this room perfectly.  Of course I have just the perfect thing in mind, I just need to find it. I’m looking for a tufted ottoman like this:

I am also planning on having 5 different old looking wall clocks above the sofa which tells the time for which ever countries James need to keep an eye on. The French provincial style furniture is impossible to find in France, but a quick google search shows it’s pretty easy peasy getting it everywhere else. Isn’t that strange? I am on a mission and I won’t quit untill I have it :D

I hope you’ve all had a really nice weekend and a great start of the new week :D

Kan anbefale serien Dexter :) Skikkelig spennende serie, og i tillegg ligner du så utrolig mye på en skuespiller i 5. sesongen.. klarer ikke tenke på annet når jeg ser henne!

Reply

Celina June 25, 2012 at 16:57

*Rett på google og sjekke hvem det kan være*… Kan det være Julia Stiles, mon tro? For det har jeg nemlig hørt før :D
Jeg begynte på dexter da den kom ut, så falt jeg helt ut.. men det er sant, det var en utrolig spennende serie!

Linn June 25, 2012 at 17:58

Ja, det er henne! Du ligner mye mer på film enn på bildene. Hver gang hun kommer på skjermen tenker jeg “der er Celina igjen jo”, haha, skikkelig rart. Veldig vakre jenter begge to :)

Celina June 25, 2012 at 18:27

Haha, så morsomt! Det er klart jeg tar det som et kjempekompliment, tusen takk :D

That’s the way to do it! ;) Haha! I love the consoll table btw :)

Just thought I’d mention that TM Design have a few Ottomans that are quite nice:

And if you want to se one of them from a different view you can see it in Fotballfrues dressing room:

Good luck in your search for the perfect ottoman! :)

Yes, that is really nice.. only the problem is that I don’t live in Norway ;) As I said, it’s really easy finding French furniture everywhere else…

Love the table! Glad to see that you are feeling better and on your feet again. Ottomans like that are actually not so difficult to make if you have trouble finding what you want (If you found a table with the legs you wanted, you could just do the top part. All you have to do is cut foam in the size/height you want and cover it with fabric. I think it gets stapled on. The little buttons are harder, but I’m pretty sure my mom has the directions somewhere, as she and my dad built me one for my apartment). Good luck!

Funny you say that, i just found a post about it like an hour ago.. littlegreennotebook.com or something like that, I was actually thinking of giving it a try only it seems to be hard to make it pretty along the edges. Would love to see a photo of yours… ;) Way to go daddy!!

Aw, thanks :D

Revenge was absolutely amazing, like you I can’t wait for the next season either. How annoying that she never got to tell him the truth.. aaaaah!!!

Reply

Kristi June 26, 2012 at 12:18

Well, they announced second season already and I truly hope that she will have an opportunity to tell the truth … Oh, have you ever seen a tv show named “Jane by design”? I really recommend! For a person interested in fashion so much as you, it should be really interesting :)

Reply

Celina June 26, 2012 at 12:41

Theu have? Do you know when next season start? Need to put it in my calendar ;) Never heard of Jane by Design before, will look it up – thank you!! :)

Hei!

Dette merket er superfint, og de holder til i Frankrike + at de selger varene på nett. Kanskje du finner noe her? Ganske sikker på at de sender til Monaco.

http://www.blancdivoire.com/

Denne er fin, kanskje litt lang: http://www.blancdivoire.com/735-agathe.html

….hvis ikke har du jo merket Riviera Maison som har vært veldig populært i Norge en stund. De har hovedkontor i Nederland.

How AMAZING was the Revenge finale? My housemate and I were squealing like little girls at the TV! I love that desk. We have recently moved house too so I know what you mean about shifting furniture around. Glad you are feeling better :) xx

Det er gøy å ommøblere å dekorere! Og det ble jo kjempefint! Mye inspirasjon å hente når du setter deg ned der tenker jeg :)
Vi holder selv på å fikser leiligheten til min kjære. (Føler jo det er litt min også daa..) Så i helgen var jeg hjemme å satt mamma i sving med å sy gardiner og puter. Det ble kjempefint <3 Nå har jeg akkurat hvordan soverrommet skal se ut klar i hodet. Må bare gå til innkjøp nå…! jippi.
Klokkene over sofaen høres utrolig kult ut. Vet ikke hva det er , men jeg syns det er kjempegøy å se hva klokken er i andre land. hahaha.

Ha en superduper dag.

Celina June 26, 2012 at 10:43

Tusen takk! Ja det er virkelig kjempe moro å ommøblere!! Det er klart at det er litt ditt og, tipper det er du som står for mesteparten av innredingen ;) Hvordan ser du for deg soverommet?? Interiørprat er jo bare sååå gøy :D Fin dag til deg og, søteste!

Reply

Irene June 28, 2012 at 09:02

Interiørprat er gøøy… :D Vi har malt en vegg i en gråblå farge, mørke gardiner, speil garderobe med en åpning hvor dresser etc kan henge på utstilling. Også tror jeg at jeg har lyst å ha en vegg med sorte rammer i forskjellige størrelser med svart/hvitt bilder inni fra forskjellige happeninger vi har gjort. Også vil jeg at nattbordene skal være i tre, 2 bokser som bare skal henges på veggen også noen rålekre lamper. :) Må være litt maskulint så han trives. ha ha. Men jeg tror det blir bra! Det er bare å få det gjort! De tre T´ene vettu. Ting Tar Tid ;) hihi..
Blir gøy å se hvor du ender opp med Ottomann.
Ha en fiiin dag!
