Made a lamp...

...to hang over our dinner table. I got some help from my wonderful dad with all the more technical stuff and whatever handy work that needed two hands ;-) I'm super delighted over the finished result! It has a much more modern look then our old one. My husband wasn't too delighted but as I am that much more invested in the interior decoration of our home (as he pointed out himself ;-) he said he could live with it....how very kind of him ;-)

A collage

So I made this attempt of two collages in celebration of our 5th anniersary and the fact that we also have been together for 10 years (where did the time go?). I'm actually pretty happy with how they turned out and the printers did a fine job. The collages are ment to be hung next to eachother as I used loads and loads of photos to spell out the word LOVE...it's cute! Also included a few words in each frame....the last one inclueds a poem by E.E. Cummings:

I carry your heart with me
(I carry it in my heart)
I am never without it
(anywhere I go you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling)


I fear no fate
(for you are my fate, my sweet)
I want no world
(for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

Here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

I carry your heart
(I carry it in my heart)

Feeling inspired...

...by the beautiful colors - inside and outside my house! With autumn knocking on the door there are beautiful colors showing up in the garden. I'm especially fond of my hydrangeas that are absolutley gorgeous now.

Happy 5th anniversary dearest Dennis!
