7th. December.

Boy what a last couple of days here, but thanks god the weather has come back to normal again, even it´s freezing cold here now. As you know, we had some damage on our antenna, so we couldn´t see much TV the other night or yesterday, but hubby have got it fixed today, so I´m of here soon to go and watch a good movie in nice peace and quiert here tonight LOL.
But while we were without TV hubby decided to stipthe old linoleum in the kitchen and put down a hardwood floor there, while we couldn´t get out to do much else anyway, but that´s also fine with me, cause now we got that done, and it´s so nice, now I´ve finally finished all the cleaning after it here tonight, so here´s the result almost finished. He just miss the last lists around  the edges here, but have got it all finished now, and I have got everything completely cleaned by now too, I just didn´t bother to go out and get the camera to take the last picture LOL, but I´ll show that tomorrow. Here come the pics:

Manner sikke et par dage her de sidste, men tak skaber at vi endelig er tilbage til normale tilstande her igen nu, selv om det bare er frysende koldt udenfor nu. Som I ved, mistede vi vores TV antenne, så vi kunne ikke se TV her den anden dag og igår, så gemalen besluttede lige, at så kunne vi da også ligeså godt rykke det gamle linoleum af og få lagt det trægulv, vi havde anskaffet, som lå på loftet, når vi nu alligevel ikke kunne lave en masse andet. Og det var da helt fint med mig, da det jo så da er blevet gjort nu, og det blev så endelig færdigt her idag, og jeg har fået det hele gjort fuldstændig rent nu også, men må indrømme, jeg orkede ikke gå ud og hente kameraet til det sidte billede, så det må I få imorgen. Her mangler han bare de alle listerne omkring gulvet, men de er klaret også, og hanhar fået antennen repareret, spå nu vil jeg lukke ned her og gå ind og se en god film, men her kommer billederne:

Have a wonderful day/night everybody, and hopefully a lot of great fun too.
Há en rigtig god dag/aften alle sammen og hyg jer med familien.

6th. December

Today it´s the 6th. December, and I must admit, I haven´t had one moment to do anything crafty here today. We´ve both spend all day on cleaning and gathering garbage and broken branches and all kinds of crazy things, that´s been flying in here in the storm last night and during the night, where it was really bad here. But strangely enough, we didn´t get a lot more damages, than we had got last night, so it´s mostly been to remove the broken briggs, where the door went through the wall out in the yard and a single roofplate, that has broken, where the antenna pulled itself out, but that´s been all anyway. Not that I regreatt hat for sure, but with the strenght of winds, we had, I´m a bit surprised, it didn´t go any worser, but guess hubby had got it all secured pretty well beforehand. Today we´ve tryed to secure a bit more, as we´ve just been warned, that we can expect more like it here tonight again, and tonight even with quite a bit of snow involved too, so right now, I´ve hubby sent to the city to do a bit of shopping, in case we wount be able to go anywhere for a couple of days here, and then we at least don´t have to go anywhere, but let´s see how bad it goes, but it has started to blow a lot more again now here the last hour, and they did say in the local forecast here to expect storm strenght and up to hurricane winds, so better be prepared and then hope, it wount get quite as bad.
So now I´ll close all down out here and get inside, so I don´t have to go outside in this crazy weather anymore today.

Idag ramte vi så den 6.december med fuld styrke, og jeg må indrømme, at jeg ike har lavet en disse hobbyrelateret overhovedet. Hele dagen er gået med at gøre rent inde og ellers med at rydde op udenfor i alt det affald og tons af brækkede træstykker og grene, som er fløjet herind i stormen i aftes og i nat. Og der var sørme godt nok sus i sejlene heroppe, må jeg godt nok sige, så jeg er ret overrasket over, at der faktisk ikke er sket mere skade, end der er, men kun en enkelt tagplade, hvor antennen røg ned og så nogle mursten, der hvor døren røg igennem læmuren, men ellers har det, i hvert fald indtil videre, kun været brækkede grene og småtræer og så en masse affald, som er fløjet hertil andre steder fra, så gemalen må jo alligevel há fået det hele sikret ret godt før, så det er dejligt. I dag har vi så prøvet at sikre det hele lidt mere, hvor det havde løsnet sig lidt, da lokaludsigten lover at det blæser slemt op igen her til aften og helt op til orkanstyrke her i området, og samtidig skal der omme en del sne og slud med i det også, så lige nu er gemalen sendt ind til byen for at proviantere lidt, så vi ikke behøver at komme ud efter noget overhovedet de næste dage, men nu må vi se hvor slemt det bliver, men det er goddt nok begyndt at blæse kraftigt op igen her allerede nu, så bedre at være forberedt, men har bestemt ikke noget imod, hvis det er denne gang, de ta´r fejl LOL. Men nu vil jeg få  det her uploadet og så lukket ned herude og se at komme indenfor, så jeg ikke behøver at komme udenfor mere i dag.

 I hope, you´re all having a great day and lots of fun today everyone and enjoying all your christmaspreparations everyone. Take good care and look after your self and each other okay.
Jeg håber, at I alle har en dejlig dag med masser af sjov og hygge og nyder alle de skønne juleforberedelser.
Pas rigtig godt på jer selv og hinanden herude i stormen okay.

Finally got the books finished for the girls.

Hello sweet friends/ Hej allesammen,
And thanks so much for all the sweet comments here for my last entry too. It really means a lot to me, and makes it worth to keep on. I must confess, I still don´t have the biggest energy, but thanks god it does get better day by day, just way too slow in my world, but guess I must learn to get a bit more patient, even THAT  definitely is NOT one of my strongest sides, I have to admit he he.

Tusind tak foralle de super søde kommentarer til mit sidste indlæg her, det betyder rigtig meget, og virkelig gør det værd at fortsætte. Jeg må indrømme, at jeg godt nok stadig ikke har den største energi, men det blir da langsomt bedre dag for dag, selv om det bare er alt for langsomt i min verden, men det er jo nok bare mig, der skal lære at være lidt mere tålmodig, selv om jeg nok må indrømme, at DET bestemt IKKE er en af mine stærkeste sider he he.

But as the headline says, I have finally managed to finish a couple of books for the girls, that I had promissed them a little while ago. It all started about ½ year ago, when Tascha had her birthday, and a very sweet blogfriend, Anna from Cuddlebug Cuties drawn her her very own personal digistamp even with her name, and back then I ofcause also had to make them something with that stampimage on, and Tascha asked for some small bags, I made for them then, so a while before it Trines birthday here 3 weeks ago, she came and asked, if I thought, she would also get her own stamp too, I had to say, that maybe Anna didn´t know, it was her birthday, as it was a coinsidense she heard about Taschas. But ofcause you can´t make too much difference to two siblings, so I mailed Anna and told her about this, and she answered me right away, that ofcause she would make one for Trine too, so the week before her birthday, this sweet lady uploaded the cutest free digistamp to her blog and even together with a wonderful card dedicated to Trine, so I could send the link to her mum to show her right away. I can tell you all, it was really awesome to hear her on the phone that morning, when she was dancing around and yelling, she made this just for me,  and was so happy, it really made my day. And when I asked her, what she wished for for her birthday, she said right away, that she wished for a lot of her images printed out, and then she wanted me to make her a diary with this image on the front, and said too, that she knew, she also got a bag for Taschas birthday, so it was okay I made one for her too, but it just shouldn´t be the same color as hers and she wanted to pick first, and ofcause that wish was granted, as they all needs to feel special sometimes, and if not for their birthday, then when?

Som overskriften siger, så har jeg endelig fået lavet et par bøger færdige til pigerne, som jeg havde lovet dem for lidt siden. Det hele startede sådan set allerede for omkring ½ år siden, da det var Tashca´s fødselsdag, hvor en ritig supersød blogveninde fra Cuddlebug Cuties, havde tegnet hendes helt eget personlige digital stempel endda med hendes navn. Og dengang var jeg selvfølgelig nødt til også at lave et eller andet til dem med det image på, og efter Tascha´s ønske blev det et par små tasker, som jeg lavede. Så her en tid  før Trines fødselsdag for 3 uger siden, kom hun en dag og spurgte, om jeg troede, at hun også fik hendes personlige image også? Hvilket jeg måtte sige til hende, at det jo ikke var sikkert at Anna vidste, at hun havde fødselsdag nu, da det var lidt af en tilfældighed dengang med Tascha´s. Men selvfølgelig skal man ikke gøre forskel på 2 søskende, så jeg sendte en mail til Anna og forklarede hende det her, og fik da straks en mail tilbage, at selvfølgelig skulle Trine også há et, så ugen før Trines fødselsdag, uploadede denne kanon søde pige, det mest super cute gratis digistempel på sin blog og endda sammen med et fantastisk flot fødselsdagskort lavet med det, dedikeret til Trine, så jeg kunne sende linket til hendes more, som kunne vise hende det med det samme. Jeg kan love jer, at det var bare fantastisk at sidde og høre i telefonen, hvordan hun hoppede og dansede rundt mens hun skreg højt, at det havde hun lavet kun til hende, det var godt nok alt værd i det øjeblik. og da jeg spurgte hende, hvad hun æønskede sig til sin fødselsdag, svarede hun straks, en hel masse Trine stempler printet ud og så ønskede hun sig, at jeg ville lave en dagbog til hende med det image på fronten, og hun sagde selv med det samme, at hun godt vidste, at hun også fik en taske med Taschas stempel til hendes fødselsdag, og det var også helt fint, at jeg lavede en bog til Tascha, men de skulle altså ikke være ens, og hun ville há lov at vælge papir først, og selvfølgelig skulle hun da det, da de jo alle geren vil prøve at føle sig helt specielle og den det drejer sig om en gang imellem, og hvis ikke man skal til sin fødselsdag, hvornår så??

 And here´s a very Happy Trine on her actual birthday, when she celebrated it with all her small classmates from school. As mum had to work that day, it was grandma and pa, who was celebrating the day with her at that time.
Og her er så en rigtig glad Trine på sin rigtige fødselsdag, som hun fejrede med alle sine små klassekammerater fra skolen. Da mor var på arbejde var det Mormor og morfar holdt det for hende derhjemme.

 Here´s all the small girls coloring Trines stamp while they were eating their candybags .
Og her er alle de små piger, hvor de farver stempler mens de spiser slikposer på et tidspunkt på dagen.

 And some of the images, that were colored and finished.
Her er nogle af de images, der blev farvet færdigt.

And that day I hadn´t got the books done, so had to make her the promisse, I would as soon as I could after her birthday, and now I´ve finally got them finished, so here they come:

Den dag havde jeg ikke nået at få lavet bøgerne til dem, så jeg måtte jo love, at få dem lavet hurtigst muligt efter fødselsdagen, og nu er de heldigvis lavet, så her kommer de:

 Both books, that I made for the girls./ Begge bøger, jeg lavede til pigerne her.

 The front of Trines book. / Fronten på Trines bog.

 Inside the cover of Trines book. / Indepå coveret af Trines bog.

 Backsite of trines book. / Bagsiden på Trines bog.

 And the cover of Tascha´s book. /  Og coveret på Tascha´s bog.

 Inside the cover of Tascha´s book. / Indenpå coveret af tascha´s bog.

 Backsite of tascha´s book. / Bagsiden på tascha´s bog.

And then hubby has also finished a project, he had promissed me to make long ago, and it was finally finished here lately too. It was a drawer for all my dies. Everybody who knows me, know that I am a bit addicted to cutting dies and have also been really lucky and won quite a few more times, so it was getting really hard to find the ones, I needed, when I should use them. If you remember from my craftroom pics, then I have this cuttingtable, and I wanted the dies to go in a drawer there right beside the cuttingmachines, so they were right on hand, when I needed them, so here´s what he made for me.

Og så har gemalen også endelig fået færdig gjort et projekt, som han lovede mig for meget længe siden. Det er en skuffe til alle mine dies. Alle dem, der kender mig rigtig godty ved, at jeg er helt vild med dies, og da jeg også bare har været snyde heldig og vundet en hel del flere gange, blev det efterhånden ret svært at finde dem jeg skulle bruge, når jeg skulle bruge nogen. Hvis I kan huse billderne fra mit hobbyrum her, så kan I huske at jeg har en stor skæreø i midten, så jeg ville gerne ha en skuffe til dem, lige der hvor de skulle bruges, så de altid er lige ved hånden, og her er så, hvad han fik lavet til mig:

 Here´s the drawer right under my cuttingmachine, where I wanted it to be.
Og her er så skuffen lige under min skæremaskine, hvor jeg ønskede den.

And here´s the drawer filled up and open, så you can see, how it´s devided inside too.

Now I just need one more, because this one is already filled completely up here ha ha ha. And yes you DON`T need to tell me, that I´m completely spoiled, I know already ha ha ha.

Og her er så skuffen fyldt helt op og åbent, så I kan se, hvordan den er delt op indeni. Nu mangler jeg bare at få ham til at lave en mere, da den her som I kan se, allerede er helt fyldt op ha ha ha. Og ja I behøver IKKE fortæle mig, at jeg er smadder forkælet, det ved jeg godt ha ha ha.

That´s all I had to share today dear friends, I hope, you´ve enjoyed to watch here and found some inspiration too maybe, but else have a great day and lots of fun til we meet again okay.

 Det var alt hvad jeg havde at dele med jer idag kære venner. Jeg håber, at I har nydt at se, hvad jeg havde til jer og fandt bare lidt inspiration også måske? Men ellers håber jeg, at I får en fantastisk dag og masser af sjov til vi ses igen.
Until next time biiiiiig hugs / Til vi ses igen kæmpe knuzz

My craft heaven.

So many people have been asking me to share some pictures of my craftroom, that I´ve been bragging so much about, but it really is a true craft heaven for me. Hubby made this room for me about 2 years ago, and I know, that I´m one spoiled brat on this matter here,  so you don´t need to tell me that ha ha ha. I absolutely LOVE it here, and I must admit, that I spend almost all my awake time out here every day.
We live on an old former farm, which had been closed down, when we bought it almost 30 years ago, and we´ve been working on it here ever since, and I honestly don´t think, we´ll ever get finished LOL.
Earlier I had to craft at my dinig table like everybody else, and then as the kids grew up and moved out, I finally got a small room inside, and I thought, it was heaven back then. But then 2 years ago, hubby started to renovate the old barn of the farm here, and at the beginning it was meant for him to get a workspace for woodwork, but suddenly, when he had finished the outer of the room he announced, that he intended to make it into my craftroom, so how I would like it to be inside, and I suddenly had to think really close about that, and this here is what it all ended up with, a huge room a little over 40m2.
I hope, you´ll enjoy the tour around here and let me know afterwards, what you think, but here comes an awful lot of pictures, so please enjoy.

Rigtig mange mennesker har gennem længere tid spurgt mig, om jeg ikke nok ville dele nogle billeder af mit pragtfulde hobbyrum her, som jeg har pralet en del af, men det er virkelig et sandt himmerrige for mig, siden jeg har fået det rum herude, som jeg bare elsker overalt. Gemalen lavede det her rum til mig for ca. 2 år siden, og jeg ved udmærket godt, at jeg er en komplet forkælet møgunge, hvad det angår, så det behøver I ikke fortælle mig ha ha ha. Jeg elsker det bare herude, og må indrømme, at jeg tilbringer det meste af min vågne tid herude efterhånden, hvilket jeg er sikker på, I forstår, når I ser billederne.
Vi bor på et gammelt nedlagt landbrug, som vi købte for snart 30 år siden, og vi har faktisk arbejdet på det lige siden, og helt ærligt tror jeg aldrig vi bli´r helt færdig med det. Tidligere hen måtte jeg lave alt ved spisebordet, som så mange andre må også, men som ungerne voksede op og flyttede hjemmefra fik jeg endelig et lille værelse som mit hobbyrum, og det var jo simpelthen bare lykken dengang også. Men så her for 2 år siden,var gemalen igang med at renovere denne gamle lade, som var meningen han ville bruge til træværksted, men så en dag, da han var færdig med alle de ydre vægge og der stod et stort åbent rum, kom han pludselig ind og spurgte, hvordan jeg gerne ville há det indrettet som hobbyrum, for nu havde han lige bestemt, at det var, hvad det blev til, da han havde fået andre ideer indenfor, som ville koste mig mit hobbyrum. Så jeg fik pludselig meget travlt med at finde ud af, hvad jeg egentlig godt kunne tænke mig, og det her er så hvad jeg endte op med at få i sidste ende. Et kæmpe rum på lidt over 40m2.
Jeg håber, I vil nyde turen rundt herinde, og vil lade mig vide bagefter, hvad I synes om det hele, men her kommer der rigtig mange billeder.

 Across the room from the door, where we come in / Tværs over rummet fra døren, hvor vi kommer ind.

 From the other corner towards the kitchenpart / Fra det andet hjørne og over mod køkkenbordet.

 From the opposit corner towards the entry and the toiletdoor / Fra det modsatte hjørne over mod indgangen og døren ud til toilettet.

 From the last corner towards my craftarea and cuttingtable / fra det sidste hjørne over mod mit arbejdsområde og skærebordet.

 And the name I gave it. Ofcause it couldn´t be anything else but the Craftbarn right? / Og navnet herude, som jo selvfølgelig kun kunne være The Craftbarn, som betyder Hobbyladen, da det er den gamle lade LOL.

 And here´s a nice snook, where we can sit and enjoy a nice cup of coffee and also sit and read some magazines or books to get some inspiration, when that is needed.

Og her en herlig hyggekrog, hvor man lige kan sidde og nyde en kop kaffe, eller finde lidt inspiration i bøger og blade, hvis det er påkrævet en gang imellem også.

 Here´s my cuttingtable, that is made out of 2 cardstockshelves I got really cheap a few years ago from a closing craftstore back then. Hubby set them up and put a plate on the one side with these Ikea rods to hold all my punches and put a countertop on it, so it got twice as long as these shelves, and it works just perfect, and I love, that I´m able to stand up and craft sometimes too, if I need that. As you probably know, I have  a lot of problems with my back, so some days I just can´t sit, then this is just perfect. And I always stand uphere and cut with my cuttingmachines too.

Her er mit skærebord, som er lavet ud af 2 kartonreoler, som jeg købte superbilligt for nogle år siden, da en hobbyforretning blev lukket her i området. Gemalen satte dem op og lavede et endestykke til den hvorpå han satte alle disse Ikeastænger, til at holde mine punchere og til sidst en træbordplade ovenpå, som er næsten dobbelt så lang, og det virker bare helt perfekt og jeg elsker bare, at jeg kan stå op og arbejde når det behøves. Som I nok ved, har jeg en masse bøvl med min ryg, som er opereret en masse gange, så nogle dage kan jeg bare ikke sidde, og så elsker jeg det bord her, ligesom jeg altid står op og skærer på mine skæremaskiner også.

 Then there´s also a small diningtable and some chairs, that my son was going to throw out back then, but instead I got them and the chairs in the corner,  and they all just fit sooo perfect here, and you don´t worry about if any of the girls might loose some paint or anything, as they´re meant to work at, but we also almost always have our lunch out here I must admit he he he.

Så er der også det lille spisebord og stole her, som er nogle min søn ville há smidt ud, sammen med de to lænestole ovre i krogen, men som jeg nu fik i stedet for, og det er skønt, for da de ikke har kostet noget, er man ikke så pylret hvis en af pigerne eller en self skulle spilde lidt maling på dem eller noget, men jeg må da indrømme, at vi også næsten hver dag spiser frokost herude i stedet for at gå ind he he he.

 And here´s my scrapplace then, where I sit and make most of my stuff, and as you can see, I DID NOT sort out or clean before I took the pictures, so what you see is what you get ha ha ha. Hubby made a shelve all the way down over the edge of the tale, which just firts all these small Bachoboxes here, the big blue ones under it and the smaller red ones on the top, so I can store loads of things there righht in front of me. Many of them is filled with my recycled flowers thoug, but also all kind s of stuff that I use all the time.

Og her er så min scrapplads, hvor jeg sidder og laver det meste af hvad jeg laver. Jeg ryddede altså ikke op eller gjorde rent før jeg tog billederne, så det I ser, er hvad I får ha ha ha. Gemalen lavede en lille hylde, hele vejen hen over bagsiden af bordet, som lige passede til de her Bacho kasser, man kan få i tømmerhandlen. De store blå nedenunder og de mindre røde ovenpå. Så er der masser af kasser til at opbevare alt det man lige bruger omkring sig, men må indrømme, at rigtig mange af dem er fyldt med alle mine genbrugsblomster, som jeg har ordnet og samlet deri i farveorden.

 On the wall here, there had to be a closet, that has all the heating systems in it, and is also used for the broom and the vacuumcleaner and such, but I ofcause had to make everything else fit into that, as it couldn´t be moved, so I found these small drawers here in a local supermarket for almost nothing, and they fit exactly for an A4 sheet of paper or foil or whatever, so I used all these for my special paper and foil and stuff like that, as it just fit exactly between the closet and the table I already had. And over the table we hang some shelves for boxes and then hubby sat up some gutters to hold all my ribbonrolls, and they´re just perfect for that, and I added a scissor in a chain which was attached to the gutter too, so it was always where it was needed, when it was needed.

På væggen her står der et skab lige midt på, som indeholder alt varmesystemet og mekanikken, men også kost og støvsuger og lignende er derinde nu. Det kunne desværre ikke flyttes nogen steder, så jeg blev nødt til at tilpasse alt andet efter det, og der var jeg så heldig, at jeg i et lokalt supermarked fandt disse reoler her, som passer lige til A4 ark, så de blir brugt til alt special papir og folie o.l., og de passer bare perfekt ind mellem skabet og det bord jeg allerede havde før. over bordet, blev der så sat nogle hylder op til at holde bokse og ting til opbevaring, og mellem hylderne og bordet satte manden nogle tagrender op, som lige nøjagtigt passer til hele ruller bånd, så det er bare perfekt, og jeg satte en saks fast i kanten af en tagrende med en kæde, så der altid var en saks når man skulle bruge den der.

 Here you can see the shelve with all the Bacho boxes and another box with tiny rooms in the windowes, that I use for small embellisments and brads and stuff like that.
Her kan I se hylden til Bacho æskerne bedre og også en anden lille reol til småting, som er fyldt med små dimser og brads o.l.

 And here directly on my craftspace with my glass cuttingplate, that I made earlier this year and small boxes on the right, where I keep all my different tools I use all the time. There´s also a carrousel at the left with tools tool, but all within hands reach of my place here.

Og her er så direkte ind på min plads, hvor min glas skæreplade, som jeg lavede tidligere også ligger. Og til højre er der nogle bokse, som indeholder alt mit værktøj, som jeg bruger hele tiden, og til venstre står der også en karrousel, med en del værktøj i også, og alt indenfor en arms længde.

 The other side of my cuttingtable, where I store all my large sheets of cardstock and here stand also my cuttingmachines, so it´s easy to reach back on a shelve and grab the cuttingdies, that I need for a project, again in an arms reach.

Her er så den anden side af skærebordet, hvor jeg opbevarer alle mine store ark karton også(som faktisk fulgte med reolerne, da jeg købte dem LOL) Her står mine skæremaskiner også, så det er nemt lige at række bagud på reolen og tage de dies, jeg skal bruge til et eller andet projekt, men alt igen indenfor en arms længde, så det er nemt at gå til.

 And here´s my big Ikea Expedit boxes, that I just love, because it fits soo perfect for absolutely everything, and as you can see, there´s all kinds of stuff stored in there, and on top of it is all my fancy boxes and stuff I always save to recycle at some point ha ha ha.

Og her er så min pragtfulde Ikea reol. som bare er alle tiders, da den bare passer perfekt til stort set alt hvad man kan tænke sig, og som I nok kan se, er der også bare lagret alt muligt deri, og ovenpå er der tonsvis af alle mulige beholdere og dåser, som jeg gemmer for at bruge dem til genbrugsprojekter hen af vejen.

 And here´s the kids cabinet. The 4 smallest kids have each their very personal drawer in there and the bigger ones have one in this Ikea furniture. But in the kids dresser here, the top drawers are all mixed kids stuff, that is for all to use of, when they´re here, and also the first cabinet, while the last cabinet keeps all the stuff, they can only do with help from an adult, but everything nthere is the kids, which they love to come and play with as often as they can, but now they´re all at a school, it´s not quite as often anymore, as it used to be.

Her har vi så pigernes skabs væg. Alle de små af børnene har hver en helt privat skuffe, som ingen andre må røre uden tilladelse, og de større har så en i Ikea reolen ved siden af. Men tilbage til skabet, så er alle topskufferen fyldt med det alle må bare bruge af, som de har lyst, og også det første skab deri, mens det sidste skab indeholder de ting, man kun må bruge med hjælp af en voksen, da det er maling og specielle ting, men alt deri er udelukkende ungernes, og de elsker bare at komme her og lege, selv om det desværre ikke er så tit mere, da de alle er i skole nu.

 And finally the last corner here is my computerarea, where I also have some shelves above to hold all I need for the computer as ink and paper and envelopes and stuff for posting and things like that. It can be a bit frustrating, that thecomputer is in the opposit side of the room sometimes, casue I can´t follow anything on the computer, while I´m crafting, so I always have to print everything out, or drag everything over here, if I need to follow something on the screen, but else it works really well, I think.

Og her er så til sidst mit computerhjørne, hvor der også er reoler ovenover, hvor jeg opbevarer alt til computeren som blæk og papir og alt forskelligt til at sende med som kuverter o.l.
Det kan være lidt frustrerende at computeren står helt modsat af min scrapplads, især, hvis man skal følge en tutorial eller noget, så enten skal jeg kan printe noget ud og tage med derover, eller jeg skal slæbe det hele herover, hviket ikke altid virker helt godt, men ellers fungere det bare helt perfekt, synes jeg.

 And here the little tiny toilet, I have outhere. It´s really small, but it works just perfect and there is what I need out here eve a closet for towels and soap and toiletpaper and stuff, so just fine.

Og her er så i døren ind til mit lille bitte toilet herude, men det virker bare helt perfekt, og der er hvad vi har brug for, og endda et skab til ekstra papir, håndklæder og andet, vi kan få brug for, så det er helt perfekt.

Here you can see that little closet./ Her kan I se det lille skab bedre.

That was all for now, and I hope, you´ve enjoyed the big tour around here now??? I absolutely LOVE it out here, and except from the toilet, there´s lots of biiiiig windows, to bring the light inside, and it´s absolutely amazing, what such bright daylight do to crafting and your own mood, and there comes light in from 3 sides, so no matter where I am inhere, then there´s loads of light around me, which is soooo awesome and means sooo much to your work too.

Det er alt for nu, og jeg håber, at I virkelig har nydt turen rundt her  i mit lille univers her. Jeg ELSKER det simpelthen herude, og bortset lige fra toilettet, så er hele rummet fyldt med kæmpe store vinduer, som bringer masser af pragtfuldt dagslys ind her fra alle sider, da der er vinduer i 3 af siderne, og det er helt utroligt, hvad det betyder for hvad man laver, og også for ens eget humør, som jo også genspejles i ens arbejde, så det betyder virkelig meget, og så er det simpelthen bare såååååååå pragtfuldt, når sol og lys strømmer ind fra alle sider.

Like I said I hope, you´ve all enjoyed this tour here, and please let me know, what you think, and if there´s anything you´ll like to ask about, please feel free and ask me anything, and also if you have any ideas to improvement, I´ll love to hear from you too, but else have a wonderful time til we meet again next time okay.

Som sagt så håber jeg virkelig, at I har nydt turen rundt her i mit hobbyrum, og hvis der er noget some helst I gerne vil vide mere om, så bare spørg løs, og  hvis I har ideer til noget her, som kan forbedres på nogen måde, så hører jeg også meget gerne fra jer, det er helt sikkert, men ellers må I alle há en rigtig god dag indtil vi ses igen næste gang.

Some pictures from all my girls time here the last weeks.

Sorry dear friends, I know, I´ve been a bit slow here lately, but it has been quite a busy time here after the surgery, as it´s vacationtime here in Denmark now, and as usual I´ve ha lots of the girls staying here until their parents could get their vacation too. So there has been  between 1 and 4 girls here all the time for almost the last 3 weeks, and this last week, I admit, I haven´t been worth much after this, and haven´t done much else but cleaning out after these busy weeks and then finished some different things, I had going on already.
But as usual the girls were so busy, while they were here, and ofcause we also had to do some other things with them, while they stayed here, so here´s all the pics from their times here. I warn you folks, it´s a picture heavy entry.

 Tascha and Simone were really busy building a small house and a stable with all to go with a couple of horses LOL.

 Really busy

 And finally we can begin to see, where this goes.

 Their barn and a field with grass and their horses in the barn ha ha ha

 And all the paperdolls to go with it too

 And ofcause they needed a wagon for the horses too.

 And a nice house, where they could relax with TV and everything too.

 Tascha all busy.

 And Simone very busy too.

 But there was timne for a big smile too thoug.

 And here´s Emilie, when she came by too

 She wanted to make a jewelrybox for her sister, while she was here, so the next pictures shows, what she managed to get done too and all on her own. She ponly had a tinybit of help to find out, how to make the divider inside.

 She found all the images herself and also colored them and cut them all out as she wanted them to be.

 Shealso made a small minialbum too.

 And one day, I was teaching them to make tiny bears from Pipecleaners, and here´s all Emilie got done in one afternoon LOL.

 I challenged her to make some clothes for them too, and here´s the one she actually did put clothes on ha ha ha

 Tascha made a princesscrown, we found online somewhere, she printed out and cut and put together herself too.

 Then one day we all went to a place not very far from us, whixh is called The Worldmap.
It´s made by an old man with his bare hands a showel and a wheelbarrow.
It´s taken him over 20 years to make it out to a small lake, and it´s a cpomplete map made in the ground over the entire world, and there´s pput flags on every single country in the world here.
The poictures is taken up from a tower, they´ve build now, so you can get up and have a good wiev out over it all, and it´s actually quite an amazing sight, and just to think about, how much work, he´s put into making this back then and all just for fun, but now a days, they have about 500.000 visitors every year, and I´m sure, you can see why from the pictures. People find it really fun, that they here can jump from country to country and visit every country in the world in just one afternoon LOL.
I would love to know, what you think about it too??

 And here´s Tascha, Trine and Emilie, who was here on that day.

 And they were also able to take a boatride over the Pacific Ocean too, and ofcause they had to try that.

They wanted to show of a bit and wave with the ores, but Trine didn´t think all about, where she kept it then ha ha ha
It was a huge expirience for all the girls too, and a good way to teach them a bit og Geography.
We also went to visit the huge Saltcenter here, where we have a swimmingpool with water like in the Dead Sea, but unfortunately I have to admit, I completely forgot my camera that day, which the older girls were a bit grumpy about, as they really wanted to show, how easy it is to float in water with that high saltkoncentration. But they all had a great time and enjoyed it, while they were here, and that´s what matters.
I hope, you´ll enjoy to see the pics here and all the girls work, while they stayed here. I promisse I´ll share my own work probably tomorrow, but it´s getting late here now, and I´m pretty tired, so it´ll have to wait til tomorrow.
Have a wonderful week-end sweet friends and lots of great fun I hope.
Take good care til next time we meet here.
Biiiiiiiiiig warm hugs Maryann
