Handles
I really liked Karin Mannerstål’s inspiration on how to make different handles for a drawer on the last episode of the Swedish TV-show Äntligen Hemma. Especially these ones:

Perhaps something like that for the kid’s new shelf? Instead of the duct tape handles we are currently using…

Really nice storage for clothes!

Another nice example of shelves/cupboards for storage. I like that it covers the entire wall, and also the neat little grips. But in Eowyn’s room we’re probably going to go for something more fun and playful, perhaps glued on lego-pieces or something big and colorful like these (in different colors)?

New shelves
Instead of traditional wardrobes we went for Bestå shelves from Ikea for Eowyn’s room. They are less deep than a wardrobe but instead they will very nicely cover the entire wall (at least I hope so). We ordered them today online, and I can’t wait until we get them. Hopefully the end result will look something like this:

The house of Susanna Vento
I’m into a lot of Finnish blogs and bloggers right now. Is there a typical Finnish style? I’m not sure, but if so the house of Susanna Vento, might be a good example. A lot of black-and-white, with a little bit of color added. I could move right in! :)
