I just love old things, like these lovely plates, just staying there on a shelf. Not really dishwasher friendly but what the h-ck!
I go to flea markets and antique shops regulary, do not buy things to often, but I like to watch and make a great bargain when I can.
Here is something I actually have in my possession, a jug in ceramic, by Stig Lindberg in his design-series Berså. I got this one after my late mother, as a child I used it daily, now it's an antique to save.
I live in Sweden and write for a living, as a journalist and writer. In this blog I talk about my mother Gunvor's work as an artist, my travel around the world and a lot more.

More tiles from Goa
Love, love tiles, and in Goa there was a lot of them. This is just frpm my hotel Hertiage Village in south Goa in India.
First we have the stairs up to my room on the first floor. Small fishes in blue.
Then we have this single one, handpainted on the ground floor, just outside the lobby, in the patio.

Flowers and tiles
In my hotel in Goa, Hotel Heritage Village club, you could find this in the hotel lobby. Every day different flowers and some incense. Goa in India has been Portugese...
And look at the tiles. The hand painted tiles was all over the hotel, like this ones in the lobby.

Missing the sun and pool...
Today it has been snowing the whole day here in Sweden. Hate it! But that is what you get this time a year here in the north.
So I must say I miss the sun in India, and the pool you can see here in the pic. From Hotel Heritage Club in south Goa.
As a reminder, it looks like this, here in Sweden now...

Old doors
Love these old wooden doors that you can see here in the picture, and there is a lot of them. Probably used to be on an old mansion here in Sweden.
And there is also an old lamp, in glass and brass. You can se that in the upper left corner, handing from the roof.

Colors of India
I really love the colors in Goa, in India, all the tinhs you could buy, and not expemsive either.
These are just some examples of what you could buy for your home, like curtains or tablecloths, and much much more. A lot of it with lovely bling blings...
The shopping was amazing if you like this sort of things, in all different colors.
