MOOMIN MUGS

A nice morning starts with a mug of nice cappuccino and not in any kind of mug, the Moomin characters light up my mornings. The colourful mugs can be found in many Finnish families. I got my mugs as a Christmas presents from my children and some from friends. These mugs are "Made in Finland" and some models are quite rare and they are already collector items. The black and white mugs on the coffee machine is part of the new collection called "Seikkailu", meaning adventure. In that collection there are trays, mug, milk jug, cereal bowl. Actually the colourful collection also have matching cereal bowls.

CRAFT ROOM

I found suitable furniture in IKEA for this room. The shelves are attached on 3 aluminium poles and what is good I could choose how many and what kind of shelving I needed. Most of the storage card board boxes are from Ikea as well. Opposite side of the shelving is the bed that can be open to a double bed when needed and it still has 3 large storage drawers in it as well. The duvet cover and pillow cases are from Finlayson's Moomin Collection. Finlayson is a Finnish company that has a nice collection of fabrics, duvet covers and table clothes and every season they will bring some new designs...

FRAMES

I am not an art collector. I like simple frames. I frame postcards that I have bought during my traveling. I have special things in frames that are important for me. I don't have many family photos in frames, the family travels in my heart.

At the entrance of our chalet there is a large mirror on the wall in the middle of the corridor. Both sides of that mirror there are four frames on the top of the long shelve. On the left side a frame with a date, a special date when my husband and I met for the first time. Then next to it there is a poem about our daughter and me written by my husband. In the small frame there is some Moomin characters and the white frame has white wings - the wings that carries my dreams...
