Blackboard walls + pallet benchens {Chalkboard weekend - Part three}

Posted by dasfseegdse Sabtu, 28 Januari 2012 0 komentar
Today some more chalkboards pictures I received and love to share these on my blog with you! Tina from Peppar & Vanilj sent me pictures of her blackboard walls... and I think they are looking amazing!
 

I have always loved using blackboards not only to write on, but also as a wall to add images you love. On her wall Tina made a moodboard with some of her favorite pictures like the ones from stylist and shop owner Lotta Agaton and the famous picture of the Afghan girl with the blue eyes from 1999. 



I also really love the bench she made out of old pallets... it is something I am thinking about since I put down  some wooden planks on my concrete kitchen floor when I was still working on it. But seeing the bench VT Wonen made at the woonbeurs I kinda changed my plans as I like both ideas. So I am still thinking what to do.

With an eco friendly approach she is re-using materials to give them a new use. She has six blackboards in her home and when people come over they enjoy writing and drawing on them. See more of her boards here and have a look at the boards she designed for her sons room.



The picture below, says Nathalie was an inspiration for her own blackboards... she don't know who's wall it is but funny enough we can find out some things about the person .. She likes to shop online-loves flowers - has an animal called Sid and might even be ready to go to Paris! If this is you let us know ;)

Maybebag {whats that in your maybebag }

Posted by dasfseegdse Kamis, 26 Januari 2012 0 komentar


Since being available at MERCI in Paris the Maybebag seems to pop up everywhere.. Maybebags are made of Tyvek, an extremely light hi-tech material that gives the bags a delicate paper-like appearance. useful in many scenarios: from the daily commute to shopping and holidays, or just crumpled up in your main bag, waiting to be used in one of these - maybe - situations!

On the site they have a small blog called Maybelife... with pictures from what people carry around in their maybebags. If you can't go to Paris you can order a maybebag online at their site or at Orphan Socks with no shipping costs. Or if you live in Stockholm you can get them at Lotta Agaton's shop. If you are lucky enough to have one already .... show us what is in your maybebag !

This weekend I will be showing you lots of blackboards I got emailed and will have a little blackboard wall marathon on here... It will also be your last change to enter our giveaway and win a unique lamp from Zenza  .... See you tomorrow!






THE IDEA:The idea for Maybebags was triggered by an observation we made on the London Underground: a lot of people have an expensive handbag that holds the daily essentials, but use a secondary, less stylish bags to carry anything from the extra pair of shoes to the gym kit or books and paperwork. We saw an opportunity for a functional yet beautiful everyday bag that is useful in many scenarios: from the daily commute to shopping and holidays, or just crumpled up in your main bag, waiting to be used in one of these “maybe” situations.

An industrial look bedroom {IKEA LIVE blog}

Posted by dasfseegdse Senin, 23 Januari 2012 0 komentar

Totally forgot to mention my last weeks blog for IKEA LIVE ...  where I write about how the new grey floors also changed the look of my bedroom and where I also show some previous looks from the last years.

It is really strange to see how my taste of decorating changed towards the Masterplan) -- Talking about the masterplan {I promise you this will be the last time} I thought it was really cool when I met one of my blog readers last week and she told me that reading my thoughts and ideas about having a masterplan she thought it was a really good idea to make one for herself too ;) --

Since the picture above, taken about 2 weeks ago, my room had a little change again. As I missed the white floors a bit, I bought a white carpet at the Pol's Potten sale to put next to my bed. I will try to make some more pictures of the room again soon. For now you might like to read my blog at IKEA LIVE what the lovely people at LIVE called An industrial look bedroom

IKEA a m'a informĆ©e que tous les blogs sont traduits en FranƧais et aussi disponibles sur le site de IKEA LIVE France.

A Chalkboard wall in the bedroom

Posted by dasfseegdse Rabu, 18 Januari 2012 0 komentar
I found these cute pictures of the girl drawing on this great blackboard wall  on the blog of Silje. A blog I found through Nina's community Stylizimowhere you can share pictures of your home with others.

During the last years I have seen lots of blackboard walls in kitchen and hallways, but not that much in bedrooms. I looked around on Pinterest and did a little survey on Facebook and Twitter asking you to sent me pictures of your blackboard walls.. but not one of the pictures was from a bedroom.


A stunning picture from the bedroom of fashion designer Hanne Graumann by Wichman and Bendsen I scannend from last years Elle Decoration. I think this  home and room was my favorite out of all UK Elle Decoration magazines of last year. But I will check them out once more and make a choice, like I did with last years VT Wonen magazine and see if there are more favorites. 

Sticker on a blackboard wall!

If you have blackboard walls in your home and like to share them. Then please sent me the link to your blog and I will link you up under this post. 

Thanks you Jana for the following link:

Normal gets you nowhere

Posted by dasfseegdse Minggu, 15 Januari 2012 0 komentar

Having some more days off last week I had plenty of time to wander through my city... The thing I really love about living in Amsterdam is that there is so much to see and explore all the time, like new shops, galleries, a new part of the old harbor turning into a hip space.You only need time to discover it all.

So last week I had time and went to some bookstores, where I picked up the Kelly Cutrone poster. Not only did I loved the real life show of Kelly Cutrone about the hectic around Fashion week {you may hate me if you thought it sucked} I really love the title of her new book! I also added the Batgirl poster to the wall in the hallway, using black masking tape in stead of framing it! I think it looks really fantastic and basic like this.

And I finally went to have a closer look at new department store Options Where I bought a huge glass vase. Taking off the bubble wrap and tape I thought it would look good on the wall, as I love the word 'Options!' I really believe that if you step out of the box and just ad random things you love to your walls, it will make your home look different and a reflection of who you are.... Normal gets you nowhere ;)

Art + Chalkboard walls at Velvet

Posted by dasfseegdse Jumat, 13 Januari 2012 0 komentar


Via Pinterest I came across a picture made by Designer and Stylist Sania Pell, author of  The Homemade Home I emailed her about the picture. And told her how much I loved the photos of cafĆ©-bar Velvet, she made in Zagreb. We had a lovely conversation and she told me how much she loves MERCI as well.. Ofcourse I gave her the adress of Restaurant Grazie a few blocks down to MERCI in Paris. A different, but beautiful place like this one.


The interior of cafe and gallerie Velvet is the vision of the talented Croatian contemporary artist and florist SaÅ”a Å ekoranja. And I love the combination of greys, blacks and the little red details .. like the red stamped numbers on the tables and the legs of the chairs. I remember loving that kind of details in the cafe of MERCI as well last summer. More pictures of Velvet and the work of SaÅ”a Å ekoranja can be found on Sania's website  and on the Velvet website.








Lovely white ceramics... also to be found on the XL - Danish design tea towels we are giving away on the concept blog - competition open till Januari 23

In case you are going to Paris this month and are visiting MERCI  Being my favorite shop in Paris, I see it as a must of course if you ask me..  You can still play and make different words with the letters from Kidimo  till Januari 14. On their site you can also make and order your own unique word!

I was planning to add a text to my wall in the living since painting it and taking everything of the wall,  that is now placed on the low cabinets, {see my previous post here} and it might just be one of my favorite French words. Wondering what word you would make !
