Preparing

Making little preparations for the wedding. I have been obsessed with the inside of envelopes for years - now my collection of beautiful envelopes finally has found it's purpose.

I am still searching for inspiration and found some beautiful photos (as well as fantastic dresses, stationary, accessories, decoration and you name it!) here and here.

 

First two photos from Twigs & Honey and last photo from BHLDN.

Bye-bye house in the green

Last post from our Swedish house this time. Some of the loppis finds that stayed in the house - what is a Swedish house without "Nu ska vi sjunga" (a classic Swedish songbook)?

Frida Viola is watching Pippi on the iPhone - talks about it all the time.

Now we are back in Copenhagen, and the city seems hot, muggy and dirty when you arrive from green Småland.

Water, Air, Earth and Fire

 

Yes, it's me taking a swim in the lake - and I am not too keen on cold water, but today it was perfect.
We stayed most of the day at the lake, but we also visited this thrift store - a must every time we come here. Some good finds today as well - the quilt in the first photo one of them, more photos later.

A lit a small bonfire and we made twistbread in the evening - so good.

Tomorrow we go back - none of us want's to leave.

Breathless

It's summer now. We have been outside all day.
We also visited this incredible flea market in Fageräng - not too far from our house.
Their vast inventory took my breath away. All dirty and piled up in stacks.
Frida Viola is developing into a savvy thrifter (to her mom's delight!)

 
I will show you some of our finds tomorrow.
Goodnight and sleep well!

End of first day

A has been mowing the lawn. Two cars passed our house - wonder who that might be. I have been baking. Frida Viola has been picking flowers. It's very, very quiet out here.

Where I woke up this morning

This morning we woke up here, in our Swedish paradise.
We left the city yesterday at 7 pm and arrived at midnight.
This time we are just the three of us.
I am so in love with this place. I am sitting at the kitchen table with the doors open to verandas at both sides of the house and the birds outside are singing in stereo, completely surrounding me with their song.

Sea & Sand

Best playground right now.
