I am so sorry

Because this is once again a post without any nice pictres. Also I use this as only an update. Things are not working out well with the flat (read this as we are unable to contact our land lady) as you can see from the dates it has been far longer than anyone of us expected it to take.

I've been in a constant bad mood the past ... probably already weeks.

It's November so I should actually be writing away for Nanowrimo but until now I am hanging back ... I want to curse but I won't.

Today is the first day where I feel at least a bit energized again. Lyza and I will start looking for other apartment alternatives. I still have to do a birthday present for a friend of ours and wash some clothes for a flea market coming up on Saturday.

That plus the at least 2k words I need to write every day to finish on time will hopefully allow me to concentrate on different thing than a depression creeping up on me.

I have something I want to talk about in a future blog post so stay kind of tuned for that?

Have a fantastic weekend everyone!

A new face for a kind of old kitchen

This is a kind of long promised post that I did not really manage to write. Anyways. So about ... two weeks ago Lyza and I went to Ikea with my mom and they are actually offering their fabric for cheaper for people with an Ikea family card so I just told my mom if she wanted I could sew her new cushions for our kitchen because I felt like it. Said and done we bought (maybe a bit too much) the fabric and I started sewing. It didn't even took that long and I l

I really like how they turned out and since I had enough fabric I also made a matching table runner! My apologies for badly light photos but our whole house is really dark and there is no way you can take good photos of our kitchen I believe ...

Onto the photos though!

How do you like it? I really like it actually. I was considering making a tutorial? They are quite easy to make and even more easy to wash that's why I made them like this. And I also considered to add fake buttons to it. If I do I will post an update but I think it would be really cute.

Okay everyone have a great day everyone.

Love,
