A passage homage

My poor Nora and Helmer have had to cope with an open bathroom for years, with no wall between the bathroom and the passageway outside the bathroom. But finally they can get some privacy doing their business.

This is what the bathroom looked  like before. (The floor in the passageway had been damaged by previous owners before the house was bought by Nora and Helmer)

And now with the wall. Doesn't it look like it's been there forever?

 (And maybe it has?)



 

The new wall is removable, it leans to a simple cornish in the top and has a small bend at the side to make it stand on it's own.

The burgundy wallpaper is from "Søstrene Grene" and the two prints on the wall are by Bruce Holwerda. I really love his work!

The rug is a fabric sample from work, the new cupboard on the side landing is vintage Lundby or Barton,  I believe. The silver traditional ale bowl on it is a charm, and the chest was my grandmothers.  She displayed it with other miniatures and small items in a shelf in her kitchen, and I always admired it! 

The pictures the top of the stair walls are the same I have in my stairway. (see below)

 

 This one is painted my my grandmothers oldest sister, as a copy of the well known Gauguin painting. I inherited both these paintings from my grandmother when she passed away.

I made a miniature copy of the second one, but have given away the original (this is by the way the original size) and just used a printed copy for Nora and Helmer, which suits the Lundby scale better.

A quick visit to the bathroom

ENG: Here are some photos from Nora and Helmer's bathroom. The bathroom furniture is chosen to match the existing floor tiles that came with the house.
NOR: Her er noen fotografier fra Nora og Helmers baderom. Baderomsmøblene er valgt for å stå til de opprinnelige gulvflisene.

ENG: Nora really wanted windows in her bathroom
NOR: Nora hadde veldig lyst på vinduer på badet.

Nothing but Flanell no5.

Credits: Bathroom furniture are vintage Lundby and cabinet of unknown origin. (The shower is from my childhood). I have used lego to make the mirror shelf. Accessories are Lundby, Re-ment and self made. Posters are the mini-versions of Ikea postcards.

And - Fluffy Bricks has been so kind to post three of my rooms on her blog!
You can see them here.

Hot tub spot hub

ENG: Karl Edo felt like doing something out of the ordinary when illuminating the bathroom, so he put tiny spots around the bathttub (waterproof of course).

NOR: Karl Edo hadde lyst til å gjøre noe utenom det vanlige når han skulle sette inn belysning på baderommet, så han satte punktlys rundt badekaret (de tåler vann, selvfølgelig).
