Vinnord featured at HGTV!

In early april I was contacted by assistant editor the massive interior website and tv-channel HGTV. It's big in america, allthough to most norwegians it might not be too well know. It has a cool feature where you upload your rooms and get them rated. I dare say it looks like I am the only norwegian on there...

Kayla Kitts, the editor, found my dindingroom and loved it so much she wanted to use it in a "Summer Style: hottest colour trends of the season" web article. Of course I wanted to be a part! I felt absolutely honored that she picked my humble diningroom among the thousands that excist on the hgtv pages!here is what she wrote about my room:

Aqua

Although summer is typically associated with vibrant, saturated colors, bold primaries have been toned down with white to create shades of aqua, misty blue and azure. RMS user WhimsicalWitch gives her kitchen a shabby-chic makeover by adding sporadic splashes of aqua to the crisp, white space. Freshly painted chairs, distressed shutters and aqua-trimmed stemware bring a cool, delicate feel to the room, ideal for a true summer look.

*Dances around all happy* I find this very exciting!!! Maybe even more so beacuse ALL the other images, except one (maybe) were from PROPER DESIGNERS!!!! How cool is that? Yes I am mighty proud today :D

Great!!
Jeg mener GREIT! Da vet jeg at jeg følger rett blogg. Vist fram for amerikanerne, da gitt!
Skvatt litt av bildet før ditt. Den grønnfargen var noe sær.
Dette var moro. Tenk om Hjemmet eller noe kunne laget en reportasje hjemme hos deg også? Kanskje en kan sende inn tips selv?? (Hint, hint.)
God helg!
