Muutamia aikoja taaksep\u00e4in sain haasteen Kartanonrouva Eliselt\u00e4<\/a>. Pit\u00e4isi yritt\u00e4\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4tt\u00e4\u00e4 mik\u00e4 romuistani on rakkain. Sanon romuistani<\/strong><\/span> enk\u00e4 romuistamme<\/strong><\/span>, koska p\u00e4\u00e4asiassa romut ovat minun. Is\u00e4nt\u00e4 ei ihan niin paljon arvosta. Olen joskus aikoja sitten kirjoitellut t\u00e4st\u00e4 ennenkin. Minun ja is\u00e4nn\u00e4n maut ovat verrattain erilaiset ja niiden yhdist\u00e4minen on joskus v\u00e4h\u00e4n hankalaa. Is\u00e4nt\u00e4 kun pit\u00e4\u00e4 modernista hieman kitch-m\u00e4isest\u00e4 tyylist\u00e4 ja min\u00e4 taas vanhasta ja kuluneesta, aika nuhjuisestakin tyylist\u00e4. Esimerkkin\u00e4 voin kertoa ett\u00e4 olemme etsineet olohuoneeseen sopivaa lamppua siit\u00e4 asti kun muutimme t\u00e4h\u00e4n asuntoon 2,5 vuotta sitten. Mutta emme ole viel\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4n l\u00f6yt\u00e4neet sellaista josta molemmat pit\u00e4isiv\u00e4t. Siksi olohuoneessa on lamppuna kaksi rumaa halpis-plafondia joiden valaistusteho on varsin huono.<\/p>\n

Mutta se rakkain romu… On hirve\u00e4n vaikea valita esineist\u00e4 jotka on omistanut vuosia. On kasa vanhoja matkalaukkuja<\/a> joista yksi, lasten matkalaukku, kuului vaarini kaksoisveljelle. On se funkisy\u00f6p\u00f6yt\u00e4 jonka pelastin roskakatoksesta ja jonka \u00e4iti entis\u00f6i. On puinen ornamentin pala jonka l\u00f6ysin k\u00e4velyll\u00e4 hyl\u00e4ttyn\u00e4 maasta, se on pala jostakin Haiharan kartanon rakennuksista. Ja on musta peilip\u00f6yt\u00e4<\/a> joka on \u00e4idilt\u00e4 “lainassa”, pid\u00e4n sen kuluneesta pinnasta ja muotokielest\u00e4. Lis\u00e4ksi on sekalainen kasa kaikenlaista pient\u00e4 tavaraa joka kulkee mukanani asunnosta toiseen.<\/p>\n

Kaikkein rakkain kuitenkin taitaa olla lasinen vitriinikaappi joka l\u00f6ytyi edullisesti kirpputorilta koska yksi sen tassujaloista on irti. Olen muuttanut vitriinin kanssa kaksi kertaa ja jalka on edelleen irti. En vain saa aikaiseksi korjata sit\u00e4. En tied\u00e4 vitriinin ihan tarkkaa ik\u00e4\u00e4, mutta muoto viittaa art decoon eli jonnekin 30-luvulle. S\u00e4ilyt\u00e4n vitriiniss\u00e4 joitakin lasi-astioita, Tiede-lehti\u00e4 ja joitakin ker\u00e4ilyesineit\u00e4 kuten bakeliittist\u00e4 Viewmasteria, kokonaan puista helmitaulua ja viuhkoja. En voi oikeastaan sanoa omistavani antiikkia, mutta t\u00e4m\u00e4n vitriinin katson l\u00e4himm\u00e4ksi sit\u00e4 ja arvokkaimmaksi huonekalukseni.<\/p>\n

IN ENGLISH<\/strong><\/span>
\nSome time ago I got meme from Kartanonrouva Elise<\/a>. I should try and decide which of my<\/span> junk is dearest to me. I say my<\/strong><\/span> junk instead of our<\/strong><\/span> junk, because mainly the junk is mine. Hubby doesn’t care that much about junk. I have been writing about our different tastes before. He likes more modern, even kitch-y interiors and I love old, dusty, romantic shabby chic kind of style. Combining these two styles is sometimes rather tricky. For example we have been trying to find suitable lamp for our living room since we moved 2,5 years ago, but can’t seem to find one that satisfies both. That’s why our living room lamp is ugly cheap flat plafond lamp, so lighting in our living room is pretty poor.<\/p>\n

But the dearest junk… It is so difficult to choose from items you have owned for years. There’s pile of old suitcases<\/a>, one of them belonged to my grandfathers identical twin. There is 30’s style night table I found from rubbish bin and mum restored. There is wood ornament I found abandoned on the ground during my walk, it used to be part of a Haihara Mansion buildings. There is black vanity table<\/a> that I am currently “borrowing” from mum, I like the wornout surface and shape of it. And then there is miscellaneous pile of small items that travel with me from one apartment to another.<\/p>\n

However I believe my most beloved item is old glass cabinet I found from flea market. It was cheap because one of the legs is loose. I have moved twice after I bought it and the leg is still loose. I just can’t get around fixing it. I don’t know the exact age of the cabinet, but I assume based on the style it is from around 1930’s. I keep in there some glass ware along with Science-magazines and some collectible items like bakelite Viewmaster, wooden abacus and some fans. I can’t really say I own any antique, but this cabinet is closest and probably my most valuable furniture.<\/p>\n
