I bought this silly old mug in a flea a while back. I like the typeface and color, and the sillyness.

growing

Little man is growing so fast and with this lovely warm weather not many clothes are required. He will have grown out of some of his clothes before even using them :-).
These trousers are probably from the seventies from a fleamarket.

sugar and cream

I like the textures and shapes of these cream and sugar sets found in fleamarkets.

Wallpapers 1957

I had almost forgot about this when I found it in a cupboard the other day. Its a wallpaper sample-book from 1957 that I bought in a fleamarket a few years ago. Lot´s of nice and typical patterns. The blue one with flowers my grandparents put up in one of the rooms of their summerhouse around that time and it´s still there.
More old wallpapers, for sale, here.

Some finds

Fleamarket again on saturday. Some of the things I found: An embroidered picture with nice teak edges, and a black cat.
Tonight is time for sauna and swim in the sea, very good to have that to look forward to every week.
