Dear all of you. A big thank you for the nice comments about our house. "Our house", wonder how
long it will sound surrealistic in my ears?

It really is a great house and place. Småland, sydsvenska höglandet about three hours
from our home town Gothenburg. Except for the house there is a lovely garden with apple
trees, berries and flowers. A guest house, a little playhouse and even an atelier for me to play
in. A dream really.

Crying

Will just sit down in the grass. To think and feel.
Can not belive that it is true. Our own country house.
We are here now, this is our adventure.

Standing on my hands. Laughing.

A big adventure is (hopefully) waiting. I will tell you about it (hopefully) tomorrow.

Please.

take them all of course.

The dream about a country house continues. We will know in about two weeks if we
are the new owners of the house. Bad omen to blog about it some people have told me.
So be it. Should put this lovely kitchen towel in a frame. Illustrated by Matti Pikkujämsä for Kaustine.

Visited the house today.
It is just too good to be true. Dare not hope. But I do, I really do.
Even the kids were overwhelmed. If we don't get it, please don't let the couple
with the make over plans be the ones who get it. So beautiful. Can hardly breathe.

Thanks for all encouraging comments about this dream.

And thank you for your nice response in the Fine Little Day giveaway!
Congrats Some Day Soon and Fröken Ö, you got yourself an optional Fine Little Day poster.

Looking for a summer house. House 1. Bjärsjölagård/skåne.
A postitive thing with this house is that one could run a small gallery or something in the part
facing the street (two entrances). Negative part is that the house is very run down, far away from
water and for us, pretty high price.


Don't forget about the giveaway.

The big summer house hunt has started. From now on we will not only look at the houses on
Hemnet we will visit some of them too. For insights and hopefully for a purchase in the end.
With limited resources it will be a great and fun challenge.

House 1. Bjärsjölagård/skåne.
This was the most run down part of the house. Use to be a antiquarian. Exciting that these
items was included in the price.

Peep of a new design coming to the shop later this summer - a pillow case called Rain.

This was a fun assignment. Unfortunatley this evil little thing was hiding in the grass that day
and bit me. So now I got the disease Borrelia :( But I belive in luck, and hope to get rid of it soon.
