Beautiful treasures by the sea

Saturday and Sunday morning, my boyfriend and I went on a morning stroll at the beaches around Køge – we are slowly warming up in the nature for a good long summer vacation together, in a few days…

This mood board (on top of this blog post) is my Sunday “catch” on Køge’s Southern Beach – on the beautiful meadow at the end of Køge Coast – Køge’s industrial port, which is in the process of a major renovation project where we would like to live in a combined flat and pent house studio some day :)

I love the delicate color combination of pink, yellow, green and natural colors.

The mood board turned out to be my own mood board for my other Sunday activity: Creative time in my collegues’ pottery were I painted the stoneware beads I made a week earlier.

See the beads before burning on the image above…

Lots of love and happiness, Susanne ♥

PS. I make short blog posts during the summer to live as much as possible in the moment – and away from the computer. This mood board was made Sunday, June 22, 2014…

Nuuuuuuuij, hvor har jeg bare nydt det skønne vejr i dag. Været i haven og gjort forårsklar – og pludselig fik jeg sådan lyst til at bygge en solseng, og fik heldigvis kæresten med på ideen.

For to år siden tog vi brædderne af siderne på vores skur, og siden har brædderne ligget og ventet på at få et nyt liv.

Tror det tog under to timer fra idé til færdig solseng – inkl. en køretur til byggemarkedet for at købe skruer…

[Solseng lavet af genbrugstræ. Den måler ca. 220 x 90 cm – og skal have monteret “hejs” til ryglænet og store fede hjul nedenunder. Super cool solseng, synes jeg selv]

Nu mangler jeg bare at sy en lækker madras og så skal der monteres fire store hjul på sengen, så jeg kan trille den rundt efter solen :)

Og bedst af alt: Der er stadig flere brædder til flere møbler… Glæder mig til at få nye ideer, som giver det gamle træ et nyt liv.

Håber også, at du har haft en rigtig dejlig fridag på denne smukke solskinsdag.

Kærlig hilsen Susanne

Daybed of recycled wood in the making

Weeeeeeeeee! Have enjoyed the most beautiful weather outside today. In Denmark we had a national holiday were most companies and shops have been closed.

Have been in the garden and messing around – and suddenly I had such a desire to build a day bed, and luckily my boyfriend approved the idea.

Two years ago we took the planks down from the sides of the shed, and since then, the planks have been waiting to get a new life.

I think it took less than two hours from idea to finished sun bed – inclusive a drive to the local builders market to buy screws…

[Sun bed made of recycled wood. It measures approx. 220 x 90 cm – and must be equipped with backrest and big wheels underneath. Super cool sun bed, that I look forward to rest upon]

Now I just need to sew a nice mattress and install four large wheels on the bed so I can roll it around in the sun :)

And best of all: There are still several wooden planks for making more furniture… Looking forward to get new ideas that give the old tree a new life.

I also hope you had a wonderful day and will have an amazing and sunny weekend!

Lots of love and happiness, Susanne
