- Baby wipes: I love them! In our household I use them for everything: quick stain removal on the go from kids' clothes (or mine for that matter), removing excess glue or paint from the kids' craftprojects (if used carefully it doesn't hurt the paper), cleaning the kids' shoes - you know when you got to go and you notice that your kid has just jumped in the muddiest place ever imagened - the baby wipes helps you get on your way quickly enough and doesn't hurt even leather shoes (but be careful though and don't use these on your fanciest pair of suede ;) (P.S. I use a eco-friendly brand called Nature Babycare)
- Orchids or light pink tulips: I don't know anything else that can give your home an equally quick and easy refreshed appearance of chicness!
- Double sided thin tape: I use this on almost all of my paper craft projects. I love how simple it is and how it doesn't leave a mark or show off in the finished product. Lately I've been teaching my kids to use it as well - no more hazzle with the glue!
- Chocolate: needn't I explain? A life raft for many a mother...
- Jane Austen's books: No matter how many times I've read them through they always make me feel as warm inside and make me smile.
- Sandness Garn Lanett baby merino yarn: The best in my book! I have knitted my babies' outfits from this yarn ever since my oldest son was born in 2006. Although I now use a bunch of other yarns I still think this is the best yarn for keeping the little ones warm and comfy! And the finish is absolutely beautiful too!
- Olive oil: yup, another thing I use even for things it's not really meant to be used like for my lips before to get them all soft and smoochable again, for my leather bags and shoes to make the leather look beautiful and then of course the food. There's almost no cooking that I wouldn't use olive oil on - although I do love using other oils as well like sesame oil and avocado oil for example.
- My photo albums of inspiration: whether it's about cute knitted things, cool craft projects, delicious looking recipes, stylish outfits or inspiring interior decorations I have them all saved in my Inspiration Albums. That way when I feel like my head is blank and I have no ideas of my own I always have a place to turn to and find some inspiration when I need it the most!
- Ticket to Heaven winter outdoor wear: I have tried many a brand but the one I always count on from year to year is T2H. They are just the best in the Northern climate. And durable enough to last through the whole of winter even when worn by two very active little boys.
- Lancome Juicy Tubes: the best! Keep my lips soft as well as brilliantly glossy! And smell fantastic too! I've had a serious addiction ever since my teen years...
- My Camera Canon EOS 7D: I carry it with me always. I love capturing the great moments of everyday life - not just the moments on special occasions. I take too many pictures I guess... And I'm really bad at getting them developed and even worse on getting them in between covers. I love scrapbooking though!
Oh boy! I have a lot of favorite things... I'll add to it later!
