THE SHOP WILL BE BACK!

02/03/2018

Friday hi! I just set my artwork shop to offline, as I’m withdrawing from the business that me an my husband/ex-husband have together. I will start my own business again in April, but have to get boring administration work done first. I’ll be back! With new artwork, an exciting newsletter, new possibilities, and a I will even make it easier to shop directly from Instagram! My shop will have PayPal and card as payment options, just like before…

So… Weekend… I think it will be far from perfect, it’s difficult these days – selling two houses, still living together with my husband/ex-husband and making it as soft as possible, all the administration with businesses and both of us finding new homes. As you know I’ve found my new home, but it’s not ready until June. So I might end up living somewhere else in the time between this house and the apartment, which is not very tempting. If that’s the “solution”, it will be a place where I would just bring my bed and Mac basically, and just living there reminding myself it’s just for a short period. But at the same time be brave, patient and present. Knowing that the beautiful apartment is just around the corner, soon to be ready for many years with me and my daughter.

I’ve been taking some photos here for you today, and I hardly ever style anything. And for sure not today! I don’t see any good reason to do that. For my clients – yes – like next week when something special arrives from Britain to be photographed in Villa Betula by me. Then we talk some styling… Because they deserve it, and they hire me for a job. And that makes me realize that if any one else is keen having their products photographed in here, you better be quick about it! Before this place ain’t longer mine. During March I will also photograph the house for the marketing when it will be for sale. The real estate agent always use “their” photograph, and never anyone else. But do I always agree on the “rules”?! No 😉 So I better do a good job!

 

Got this cute teddy from my daughter, as an early birthday present since she’s at her dads next week. She thought it looked like the dog we had, who died in September, and she is so right. A gift with a thought behind it, combined with her own love for teddybears, I think she might ask to borrow it 😉

This teddy is alive though, glued to “his” pram, while I’m wearing three layers of wool combined with my new spring blossom pants. It’s March, right!? And you will find me just an arm length from the wood burner…

 

Take care – Hope your weekend will be soft and gentle!

    Midt oppi sorgen og elendigheten et samlivsbrudd fører med seg, er der også en kime til nytt liv. En ny begynnelse, nye omgivelser, nye vaner, nye mennesker… og du er enda ung. Livet har fortsatt mye å by på. Jeg er helt sikker på at dette blir bra. Ikke enkelt, men helt sikkert bra. Ønsker deg all mulig lykke med fremtiden. Og er bittelitt misunnelig på den fine leiligheten….

      Takk for at du tok deg tiden til å skrive dette, tusen takk! Jeg er fornøyd med leiligheten selv om jeg vet jo ikke hvordan den blir innvendig! Men alt ligger tilrette for at det skal bli bra… Jeg kommer til å arrangere litt der etterhvert, så om du ikke bor altfor langt unna?! 🙂

ABOUT ME

I do and share things by heart. I create personal texts, am a musician, sell original art and prints, make a special home and capture the magic with my camera – everything rather dark hued. Villa Betula is not just skimming the tops.

And by the way - my name is Maren Ingeborg Gråblomst and I’m Norwegian. Gråblomst means grey flower.
