I read alot of different blogs, and many of them is related to interior and decor. One of them is this: Vintage kompagniets blog who is currently holding a easter give-away. Its a Danish online store that sells great amounts of interior decorating items, many with vintage look, and quite many items that actually IS vintage, from French flea markets and antique stores.
I like the style indeed very much, but its hard to implement it into our post-modern rectangular block of a home...And also, a few small items here and there is not neccesarily making the look complete ;) but I include things according to our home colours etc.
And I'm indeed liking the give-away, these are the stuff that is up for "grabs" (or rather: winning ;)) I mean, just look at that gorgeous handcotcheted lace!
By the way, what is a "gækkebrev"? As I read Danish fluently, its silly to see that there is one item that I have no clue what it is, even if the picure can describe it.... The two rolls of handmade paper there on the right, is the gækkebreve. I cant say we have something equivalent in the Norwegian language.
Nåh. anyways. Thanks to Tina, the owner of the blog, in holding a nice little give-away attention gathering.
Dear Liza
ReplyDeleteThanks for your really nice post about my give-away - it is so sweet of you ;o)
And 'gækkebrev' is a letter - usually written on a piece of paper which you have given a nice pattern by a scissor - almost like a nice paper cut. The letter do you send to relatives or friends some time before easter - and you dont write on it who send it - only dots for your name - if the receiver doesn't guess who has written it - he/she has lost an easter egg to you ;o) A sweet tradition that mainly the children like ;o)
Hope that gave you a hint ;o)
Greetings and a nice day to you Tina
