Happy New Year!

Five kids in the house. Almost succeeded to gather all in the same photo this morning.

Thank you so much for this year all you lovely people I've met meet through this place.
Thank you for your encouraging comments, for your e-mails and for sharing your own
inspiration and art. Wish all of you a great new year!

He´s been cleaning all day. Not that he wants a tidy room but to "secure the area".
The little cousins are coming tomorrow. The living room shelf is now decorated with
a big Star Wars collection.

What I´m working with at the moment (comission). Running around sneaking photos of people.
Some more beautiful dressed than others. This photo was heavy underexposed (therefore the grain), and
is not going to be used so I can show it here instead. And, I´m not sneaking all the time, sometimes I ask.


Hanna just comment this photo "That is me!" Funny because I never saw her face just saw the gorgeous back,
snatched the photo, turned around and went away. Funny.

Back in town, and back to work again. Is still Christmas though.

Even got some presents in the mail, like this package from Oly full of goodies.
Some people really knows how to wrap aesthetically, look how beautiful she´ve
used old magazine and music paper. Thank you so much Oly!

This place, so relaxing and festive.


I once told Tovalisa that I would love to start collecting the tableware of Swedish Grace. She had remember
that and bought me my first cup as a Christmas present :)

It´s wierd. Sometimes weeks pass, months pass without a comission.
And then suddenly you have one, two and three comissions - at the same time.
As if Christmas is not enough hectic. But I´m not going to complain :)


Tovalisa yesterday; "I want to have that old couch (Carl Malmsten) from the attic in my room".
Not super fresh but very nice looking anyway. She´s growing in varous ways, almost 12 now.
This nice blouse that I got from Drömma several years even fits her now.

The cloud over the couch is from La Casita, we love it. The cloud on the wall idea
is from Camilla. See Camillas cloud here.


Hope you´re not stressing too much!

All those piles who tends to gather on my window board.

Away with them, because today we´re going to get the christmas tree.
And it would be nice to put it in a pretty clean home.

The cans are from www.beundra.com. Such a beautiful way to recycle -
the cans are dressed with old magazines from the 50´s.

This snowy landscape is from my childhood winters in Åmot. It was real winter.
The drawing are suppose to be me and my siblings. I guess this picture mirrors
my romantic dream of the little cottage in the woods.

Mary Ellen Mark, have been a favorite ever since I was about 22 and discoverd her.
It´s her who´s taken the photo of my look alike. I feel such a kinship with this woman.
This is what I´m going to look like in a couple of years.


I really like Sanna Annukka´s new print.


Thanks for the encouraging comments on the last post!

Bragging.

Makes me proud and happy, but I agree with Emma it feels a little
bizarre to be on Times list of the world's 50 best design blogs, wow :)

We actually had snow today :) Was a bit cold for working outside - that pink hat was way
too thin and I didin´t feel my toes when I came home - but it was very beautiful.

Keep coming back to Andreas Banderas.

So easy can I picture myself sitting there, at the table in the sun, in the kitchen preparing, in the garden strolling.


Another summer house dream is out there for sale.

This is what we´re eating if Otto could decide. Kind of.

Hope you´re having a nice third advent.
