snapshots @ instagram

The time has flied and summer arrived. Not enough time to post too often.

Instead, I capture little snapshots of everyday life. Small moments, feelings, places and memories. If you're on Instagram, they can be followed here.

greetings from Legoland

 

 

 

Mini pop-up Legoland in the living room. ♥

Once upon a time,
long time ago
there was a studio flat
and the flat was clean and silent
and there was a dream
about a hallway full of tiny mini wellies
and a living room full of Lego bricks
and such a mess and noise,
such a life.

As days go by

These are the days

to live life the fullest,

to remember a tremendous amount of things within a day.

Therefore,

 I am especially inspired today

 by Selfridges' new No Noise campaign.

days before Xmas

 

  

Four days until Christmas,

packaging of presents* = done,

countless other things = undone.

However, I know that the true joy and peace will still come.

* Thanks Kierrätyskeskus, old newspapers and Stockmann Premiere mag for ideas & inspiration.

thinking pink

There are moments in life when a small touch of pink is just so delighting when combined with timeless black and white.

Seven years (and forever)

A beautiful evening with a cup of espresso and shared memories.

saturday in the city

late summer is always lovely in helsinki. there is something special in the air, a feeling of nostalgia and something new, when everything slowly turns towards autumn and winter.

p.s. hi design 2012 open until 2.9.2012.

a special day

Today was my birthday. We ate waffles and celebrated.
I got love letters from my loved ones and a present I've been dreaming about.

railways nostalgia

In the beginning of summer hols, we went to see old trains and the history of Finnish railways.
It was an interesting visit for both old and young ones.

After the tour we had ice cream and coffee in a lovely small cafeteria.

a happy story

we got an invite into a performance called "happy family".
it was a beautiful story with happy ending.
just as our everyday life is.

arts and crafts

my dearest ones make the greatest pieces of art.
in the beginning of summer they organized a pop-up art exhibition. every day i go to look at it and adore kids' imagination.
