Min citatcollage

- Mette -

For noget tid siden sad jeg og kiggede i en reklame for boligindretning. På et af udstillingsværelserne opdagede jeg, at der på væggen var blevet kreeret en collage af små stykker papir med tekst på. Papirerne formede en cirkel og virkede super fint og unikt på væggen! Dette blev jeg nødt til at skabe over min sofa, hvor væggen var bar. I løbet af de følgende måneder gik jeg og indsamlede citater, som var "værdige" til væggen - både inspirerende, sjove og betydningsfulde af slagsen. Papirerne er bambuspapir revet ud af en notesblok fra Tiger (3 stk for 10 kr.), og de er sat på væggen med "elefantsnot" (Tiger 10 kr.). Havde ledt i noget tid efter denne slags papir, idet jeg synes, det ser pænere og mere "vintage" ud end kridhvidt papir. 

Jeg elsker virkelig denne kreation, da den er anderledes og får ens gæster til at stoppe interesseret op og læse citaterne, som alle betyder noget for mig og viser, hvem jeg er :) 

Udpluk af mine valgte citater:

"And those who were dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music"

"When words fail, music speaks"

"You can never be overdressed or overeducated"

"I solemnly swear that I am up to no good"

"Every piece of this puzzle we call life fits. It just takes time to see what the bigger picture is!"

"Happiness is a choice"

English translation: 

A while back I was looking through an interior design magazine. On one of the pages I noticed that one of the walls had a collage made of small pieces of paper with text written on it. The papers made up a circle and it looked so cool and unique on the wall! I had to recreate this on the bare wall over my couch. During the following couple of months I gathered quotes that were "worthy" to go up on the wall - both inspiring, funny and meaningful ones. The papers are made out of bamboo. I tore them out of a notebook from Tiger (3 for 10 DKK) and put them on the wall with "elefantsnot" (10 DKK in Tiger). I had been looking for this particular kind of paper for some time, since I believe that it looks more pretty and vintage than plain white paper does. I truly love this creation, as it's something different and it makes my guests stop up and read through  the quotes, which all mean something to me and show who I am :)
