More denim


What a fantastic bloggers get-together it was on Saturday! I met so many lovely bloggers, and indeed had the time of my life (alas, without my camera...) Thank you, Solveig, Ann Helen and Julie for arranging it, and for making it a day to remember.


When in Oslo, and able to do a bit of shopping at reduced prices (a special deal for us interior blogger for the day!) I found it hard to resist this rag rug the minute I saw it. A rug made of recycled denim (old jeans!) How great is that? After all, you know me and my fondness for blue denim...


Now I have had bare floors for several years now, even though from time to time I have tried various rugs on them (without much success, I might add). But I believe this rug is different, and indeed a keeper.


And now it graces our entrance... one that rarely is used, other than by first time visitors. Our everyday comings and goings happen through the back door by the laundry. So this rug will not get a whole lot of heavy traffic. And it does go nicely with all my denim "stuff"...

Everything looks so fresh and clean. I think your rugs looks awesome. You've inspired me to hang onto (and cut up) my husband's old jeans. I am going to cover 2 pillows on my couch. They will look similar to your's on the chair.

BOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN
Why American men should boycott American women

http://boycottamericanwomen.blogspot.com/

I am an American man, and I have decided to boycott American women. In a nutshell, American women are the most likely to cheat on you, to divorce you, to get fat, to steal half of your money in the divorce courts, don’t know how to cook or clean, don’t want to have children, etc. Therefore, what intelligent man would want to get involved with American women?

American women are generally immature, selfish, extremely arrogant and self-centered, mentally unstable, irresponsible, and highly unchaste. The behavior of most American women is utterly disgusting, to say the least.

This blog is my attempt to explain why I feel American women are inferior to foreign women (non-American women), and why American men should boycott American women, and date/marry only foreign (non-American) women.

BOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN!

Flott rye Mia. Ikke lett å komme tomhendt hjem når prisene er satt ned. Lekre denimfarger hos deg i dag.
Klem

Oh Mia, what a lovely blog you have. I like the nordic style, but mostly I cannot read the text. Yours is in English too. Wonderful. I can imagine your peaceful countrylife: So nice and so beautiful.
Love from
