Shopping at IKEA

Yesterday at 22.00 we decided we should try to do something about my Zwart Chateau (the name of my sewing area).
Since we only live in a 5-room apartment, and we are 5 people there isn't a room for my sewing and crafting, so I just have to do this in our livingroom - and I looks a mess when I'm cought up in my crafty self.
This corner is in a desperate need of a change.
I'm embarassed even posing this messy picture :/
So we left for IKEA today. I managed to find something that might work to clean up my messy area.
When we were done it was time for the usual ice cream.
Our sweet kids enjoyed their ice cream
 Me hanging out in the wardrobe area
I will for sure post pictures of how the work is progressing. Hopefully it will be a neat and tidy little place once I'm done.

And I agree with others: this Directions; Spring Green is horrific on me! I know it's not cute or sweet in any way. But it is funny and crazy and I laugh at my hair every single morning! I will probably keep it for a year anyway. But my intention all along have been to change to a different shade of green. But I have a year to do that :) Perhaps it will suite me better.

  8. I just say what I think, it doesn't mean that everybody else has to agree with me, but apparently you also agree with me that spring green doens't look as fabuluse on you like for an example pink does!
    I belive that you would look great if you let the green fade a littl' bit :) Because I think you look the best when your haircolor isn't so "strong" It looks better when it's fade a littl' so I just don't say that every single green would look horrible on you, it might just be that tone :)

    I have absolute NOTHING against you adora I belive you look amazing anytime and your makeup is incredible and you seem to be a really sweet mother to you children!

    Hugs and kisses :3

  11. I adore the Green. I think its an amazing colour (Maybe this is just because green is my favorite colour...but..) You deffinitly suit it.
    If you don't think it makes you look your best then you should change it to make you happier :)
    But it does look amazing xx

  12. I think you would rip my head with your bare hands if you saw the cluttered state of *my* living room...

    Anyway, I love the green. And your kids are cuter in every single photo you post of them.

  13. Well I loved your blue hair the best but you don't look bed in green or any other colour for that matter. You have very beautiful features so you can pull anything off. But if you don't feel it's right for you than you should change it of course. Btw your kids are ADORAble xxx

  15. The green looks really deathrock to me, and I like that look A LOT. My boyfriend likes it a lot on you, too. I wonder if some people who don't like it also associate it with that (or gothibilly/psychobilly, or horror pop...or whatever), and dislike that look? I agree with others that you look about equally pretty with any of the colors...the only one I really like less is the plain blonde, for the same reason that you don't like it as much. Mostly, I feel that if a person's hair/clothes/makeup is a true expression of how they feel inside, then it will probably look good, and if some people don't like it, it shouldn't be that important to the person who feels good wearing wearing it. I thought that about someone else today, who I don't feel really takes advantage of her looks. But then I thought that it's probably really a true expression of who she feels she is, and so it doesn't matter that it's not what I would think looks best.

  16. I don't think it looks bad, but maybe try apple green by Directions? I use that colour.

  17. hey dear, Canada loves green! :)
    I think there r much more ppl who adore your green hair than ppl who don't. Anyways, there is no way to please anyone. You are smart i think that in the end you know what fits with u and what doesn't. You look happier ( and happier doesnt mean less goth or so what) in green than that fade purple..imo :)
