Roof lists

Hello!
Today we haven't really had so much time to put on the living room itself.
During the morning we went and bought the oak floor and most of it we stored at Helena's parents until we need it (some we took home because next project, "the passage" we will put some in).
Then we have been at my moms house and got some tools that we will need soon.
We also got the top of a bar disk I am hoping will fit in the living room but that we will have to wait and see, maybe by tomorrow night we know:)
This evening Helena did nearly all the painting that was left( only 2 windows left) before she had to go to bed, tomorrow is here first day at here new job:)
I stayed up a little longer, been putting up the ceiling lists and it's all done now and looks great:)
Unfortunate I still can't get out pictures of how it's going but think I found the reason, must be connected to a wifi to upload pictures from the mobile, why it doesn't work with my 3G I don't know:/
Maybe some pictures will pop up tomorrow so stay tuned;)
Good night

Update

Time to bed but first a short update.

Today we started of the day by taking a brake with the living room and helped mum with some stuff instead.
Then we went with Helena's dad on a floor hunt. We ended up with 58m2 oak floor that we will collect tomorrow morning.

The evening we spent on working some more on the living room and we got help from mum and penni:)
Hoping we are done with all tomorrow because we are starting to miss the sofa and tv:)


Todays work

Here is some pictures from today


Friday

Now it seems to not work at all to upload pictures from the mobilephone, have no idea why, so you have to wait on pictures ( maybe I can grab a computer tomorrow and get them out).
For now you just have to settle with reading:)
Today we started of by going to some shoppes and buy equipment and then we starter on the wall paper wall. We hade to make it clean and then we put up a recovery wallpaper with some help from Helena's dad ( maybe a little bit more then "some" help).
Now we have just finished to paint the other walls with the real paint and it's still wet but it looks good already:)
Now it's time to go down on the floor and get some paint on the floor list.
After that it's bedtime and tomorrow we hope we can get the real wallpaper up and also finish the painting of the floor lists.
When that's all done we only have the list by the ceiling, painting around the windows and changing the sockets for electricity and were done, time to get furniture in and then start with next room:)
All for now!
Have a nice Friday night!

Wall paper

Today we are going to paint the walls white and also to get started on the wall where we want to have wall paper. If we have time we maybe will have the wall paper up before bedtime, but before we can put it pup we must use a "recover wall paper" to smoothen the wall. Here is a picture of the wall paper we have chosen.
It's from Harlequin and just this one is named 30215.
It's hard to see in this picture but is has a litle golden glow in it that we hope will look nice when some spotlights goes on it.
Time to do some work, all for now.
P.S. when we blogg from our mobile we have to post a picture in a seperat post, a bug in the app. D.S.

Ceiling

Now the ceiling has been painted one time. Waiting for it to dry and then see if it needs to be painted once more.
Made a lot of difference to get it more withe instead of withe/yellow as it was before.
J&H


Morning!

Time to get up!
Soon of to the store to buy more ceiling paint and then time to play with the roller:)
Hopefully we will get started on the walls today to but we ran in to a bit of problem with them yesterday. The
Material on the walls are old, maybe around 40 years and the idea was to paint it over with withe paint since we heard from many ways it's a hard jobb to get it down from the wall.
But we tested to paint a square meter yesterday and for first it really took a loot of paint because it's like woven and also it got like air bubbles under it because of the moister of the paint.
Still in bed so haven't had a look yet but we hope the bubbles have sisapeard now when it has had all night to dry.
If not we may have to find a other way to do it.

All for now

Project 1

Second day has begun and it's time to get started with the first project -living room-
The plan is to paint the ceiling and walls withe except one wall were we probable will have a darker paint to mix things up a bit.


Plans

As we wrote before we are planing on renovating allot. Our first plan was to start with the kitchen but we have changed that because later on we will be able to have more help with the kitchen witch seemed to be the hardest part.
Tomorrow we will start with the living room.
More news tomorrow

Sen blev det lunch och en nervös fotbollsmatch tills bajen gjorde 1-0 i 95:e minuten mot vår snart nya hemkommun. Så skönt!!!
Kvällen har spenderats med att packa det sista småsakerna, tömma kyl och frys o ismaskin och nu är allt klart för att lasta in imorgon och sen ska det städas.
H:s föräldrar kom upp för ca 1 h sen också, nu blir det lite panpizza alla Ikea innan det är dags att kalla det kväll!

Allt för nu:)

No more tv

Yes, idag har det packats mycket och till och med tv har blivit nerpackade i sina kartonger så nu är det slut på tv-tittandet.
Inom kort åker iMac också ner i sin låda så då får det bli till att vara på bärbara ett tag framöver.
Nu är det bara 2 hyllor kvar som ska monteras ner från väggar, resten är bara att packa ner i lådor:)

Idag betalde vi också vår hyra för nya lägenheten för första gången så nu är november täckt:)
Här nedan kommer bild på hur ugnen och micron kommer att se ut i nya köket när det blir klart!

Denna överraskning fick man när man gick o handlade idag:)


The Kitchen

Yesterday we came home rather late after a nice evening at a friend who had made a nice dinner! So when we came home it was right to bed and no time for the kitchen plans to come up on the blogg. But today there is time and here is the pictures of how we have planed it!
Picture 1 is from above, nr 2 is from standing in the doorway in to the kitchen with the back facing to the hall, picture 3 is from the the opposit side of the kitchen.
We havent got exactly everything planed yet, we need to retake all the messures when we get the apartment and also look over the water and electricity in the kitchen.
Since whe have a frezer wich produce ice now we want to have a simalar one in the new kitchen to (on the right hand side when coming in to the kitchen) because we really like it, but we have to messure doorways when we arrive to see if it will go in.
We are also thinking of maybe taking down the celing just a little bit to make room for built in spotlights but we havent decided that yet and the hight of the ciling also needs to be taken in to conicderation so we will messure that aswell when we move in.
All for now

Välkomna!

Hej och välkommen till vår gemensamma blogg!

Inom ett par veckor är det dags för oss att flytta till vårt andra gemensamma boende, därför tyckte vi att det kunde vara roligt att dela med oss av vår resa till nära o kära!

Här kommer ni att få följa hur flytten går men framförallt följa vad som händer efter flytten!

Flyttlasset är beräknat att gå från vår lägenhet i Stockholm 23/10 och 24/10 får vi nycklarna till vår nya lya i Skåne.

Bortsatt från själva flytten kommer det vara fullt upp när vi kommer ner, det blir nämligen lite renoveringsprojekt som ska ta fart då. Tanken är att börja med köket men till slut så hoppas vi att varje rum ska få en makeover!

Allt för nu!
Hälsningar
J&H
