Eight weeks to go
Summer holiday - were going to spend a week or two in Finland of course. But best of all – we finally decided to take a trip to Skåne (south parts of Sweden) to visit some of the places where I spent my childhood summers. Pictured above is Sandh...
Right now
Chewy the dog has gone to bed; she brought her favorite soft toy (the rat Daniel bought for her) and an old sock she must have gotten out of the laundry basket. My to-do list is covering both side of the used envelope it’s written on. I miss Danie...
On my own
Well, that’s not entirely true. Chewy the dog is here (right by my side as always when her master is absent). And the cats, Maja and Minerva are here as well. Minerva is doing here best to steel Chewy the dog’s attention, jumping in and out of be...
House hunting
September last year a small and insignificant estate-agent-ad for some unknown reason caught my eye. And off we drove to a forgotten village far out on the countryside. To have a closer look at what was described as a “dream home to be” for someo...
Swedish chokladbollar
There wasn’t much (real) candy around when I grew up. Sweden back in the 70’s where a lot like DDR . The socialist party in control of everything from the sole two TV-channels to what you could (or rather couldn’t) find at the shelves’ of the...
Body Art
I’m thinking of getting a(nother) tattoo. I want something similar to the one pictured above. Not quite that big though. I especially like the colors and the “organic” feel in it. /Hanna...
Buying a piece of land
Daniel and me usually spend our summer vacations in Finland - where Daniels mother have a beautiful little cabin on a small island in the Saima Archipelago. I love it there, but for a while now I’ve been thinking that maybe we should get our own l...
Butterfly House
No spring in Stockholm yet. Daniel and me both woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. I guess both of us had enough of slippery ice-covered streets and itching dry winter-skin by now. To get our spirits up and escape the polar climate for...
Wood House Inspiration
1. Arcipelago House, Tham & Vidgård Hansson2. Cabin Vardehaugen, Fantastic Norway3. Drift Bay House, Kerr Ritchie ArchitectsDaniel and me live in an apartment located in a small and quiet suburb outside Stockholm. Lots of nature and wild life just ...
Little boxes
In this family we are a lot about collecting things. If we get a hold of one in a series we usually want them all. Endless boxes whit books, and big things like furniture not used at the moment we keep in the basement. Small things like stones and se...
Drifting off to Neverland
So far; The laundry is almost done. And after some argumentation (and bribes) I managed to get Chewy the Dog take her monthly bath. After being treated with shampoo, herbal hair conditioner and hair-drier Chewy headed straight for the bed. Exhausted ...
Weekend Coming Up
Sitting by the kitchen table. Making plans and eating Alphabet cookies. There will be some work of course. We are going to update the shop with some really nice treasures (my favorite is a Gustavsberg ceramic wall plaque). Saturday night we are hav...
Hidden Agenda
We went in to the city today. The plan was a quick visit to Ljungrens Paper Store and then straight back home. But Daniel who drove did what he often do. He turned left when we were supposed to go right. We ended up right outside Bergius Botanical ...
Old School vs. New School
Admittedly I’m a nostalgic person. For instance I’ve never owned a CD-player and hung on to the turntable as my sole source of music until the turn of the century or so. You know the kind right? A backwards fart who refuses to get with the times!...
The Kooples
Since turning thirty a few years a go I’ve been finding it pretty complicated to shop for clothes. I don’t feel that old - but I admit to actually feeling sort of grown up lately. And I’m quite sure that increasing gray hair and wrinkles doesn...
Off to work
What do Daniel and me do with our (non existing) spear time? Well, although the results vary - we both like to cook. Practice make perfect. Or at least that's wat I like to think when the pots are boiling over and the soufflé doesn't rise. And we sp...
Old Vs. New
First of all - I admit to bee a nostalgic person. But that’s not the single reason for me to (most times) prefer old to new when it comes to interior decorating.I want quality and I want something unique. And when it comes to quality – if an obj...
On Fulfilling Your Dreams
As I mentioned before both me and Daniel still working our day jobs. We both work a minimum forty ours a week. Upon that we have to travel somewhere around ten ours a week each to get to work. That doesn’t leave much time to be creative or to fulf...
