If I had less common sense and more money... (II)

Here I am decorating my new place with slight touches of special stuff like washi tape and origami paper... But what if I did things my way and went big with my freaky inner self?

I felt quite identified with this picture while searching the net for some cool pictures to show you:

Only in my case it should also say the Death Star, Winterfell, Alagaësia and Gallifrey.

So today we are going Star Wars style :

What I like most about this pictures is that I could totally buy these and not get bored at all (well maybe the carpet). These look perfectly nice to me, and actually they create a coherent yet not tiresome atmosphere:

Again I may have to settle with something else if I don't want to scare the hell out of family and friends, my mom in particular.

I thought Mr. Wonderful had the best mugs on earth but I was mistaken. These are the coolest mugs on Earth, and the galaxy:

As my friend Agnes says... Freak and proud.

May the blog be with you.

Postcards to Stockholm: Crafting your countdown

Dear sis,

Second visit just a few days away, I can't wait to see you. I can't wait to see you after that too, in fact, I may be more exited for Christmas this year than I have been in ages, cause you'll be coming home! So I have already started planning something special to make this year's Christmas countdown even more awesome.

Here's a sneak peak:

 Thanks to Holamama for the inspiration. I can't wait till Friday to finish it.

I wonder though how on Earth are you going to resist until December 1 to discover your surprise craft. No cheating allowed or I am not playing wii with you.

And I'll know if you cheat. Beware.

Love,

M.

If I had less common sense and more money... (I)

My place would look like this:

It dawned on me today at work (public holiday? what is that?) I opened the intranet and strange enough, there it was: a Tardis bookshelf. Best thing I've ever seen. It is weird enough that our server is called Rivendel and our remote access Tirion, but what is the Tardis doing there?

And then I started thinking, if I had less common sense and more money I would totally get one of these. 

 How cool is that Tardis bookshelf? Am I the only one to identify the seven books on the left of the top shelf?

Tardis blue has to be the best shade of blue that ever existed.

The lack of bookshelf and super posh place in London with that door has made me settle for the third best (and more adjusted to my possibilities) thing: I need that Tardis tea pot. God bless the Internet for the infinite amount of silly stuff that is sold online.

And from there I found these in the BBC official online store:

 Special collection to celebrate Doctor Who's Anniversary, sold from November 30, 2012. I can't wait to have those tea towels. Should I get the mugs and the teapot too? Is it ok if I get this and the other teapot too? Can that cushion look nice in my bed?

I may have to give this a thought, but I am getting something of this Doctor Who stuff for sure. Maybe I should leave the home decor aside and get this:

I still remember my Cathaye, my Aussie roommate at Penn (hey there!) telling me how super awesome Doctor Who is, that I should watch it. Well, it took me four years but I finally did. And I keep kicking my self for not discovering it before.

Quite a lot of new stuff coming to SiL, this is the beginning of a new post-wave.

Trust me, I'm the blogger.

Such is Life.
