New beginnings

Somethings in life are worth waiting for, like spring, Prince Charming and new websites.
I can´t tell you how happy I am to welcome you at my new website now - I´ve just moved in - so it´s still a little messy - with lots of work to be done - but it´s bigger and brighter!

I´m also slowly putting the new blog together - so stay at this adress for a little longer.

Wishing for...

I´m wishing for spring now - eventhough I enjoy working from home due to all the snow and the low temperatures at the studio. Today my little shy assistent drew this wishlist for her upcoming 6-years birthday - and as a surprise to her (and a help to our guest) I turned her drawing into real photos. Nothing pink - and no mice please!

Walk & Talk

Today I spent most of my workday walking & talking with a new client on her land. And what a perfect day for spending the day outside with clear blue sky, sun and crisp snow. Walking and talking is a great way to start a new project - especially in this case when the job is all about branding this little piece of heaven and the unique business she has started here. I´ll tell you more later...

Glimpses of Thailand - Blues

The last post with photos from our trip are The Blues. As you can tell it was a very quiet and peacefull trip - and just what I needed to recover completely. Back home in Denmark is so cold and crisp - with lots of snow - and it´s so hard to get back to work again.... Life IS a Beach!

Singapore - Koh Chang - Koh Mak - Koh Kood - Bangkok.

Glimpses of Thailand - MUTED

Here´s some photos with muted colours - and YES that´s my arm around the elephant - and NO I would never share my Pringles with a monkey! and also I think Nanna´s smile says it all!

Glimpses of Thailand - RED

I´ve started to go through my photo from our wonderful holiday in Thailand - and I´ve decided to post some according to colours - so I´ll start with RED - because of the New Year! have a great weekend.

Happy Holidays

A lot of people ask how we celebrate Christmas when in Thailand - and the answer is that we almost don´t. But on the 24th there´s always some kind of plastic tree under which we can put our small presents - from the local touristshop. And if we travel with other children like this year - we might dance around the Christmas tree and sing a song or 2 - while all the other guests look bewildered at us (it´s a Danish thing). After unwrapping the presents we eat a nice Christmas dinner - often western inspired - prepared by the resort. Last year we enjoyed this sunset - and wore funny little paper hats while dinning... It´s not the traditional way for sure - but it´s the perfect way for us.

I wish you all a wonderful Christmas - just the way YOU want it to be...

Take care - see you in 2010.

Studio greetings

I´m busy at the Studio right now with lots of deadlines before we leave for Thailand - my brain is overheated and my to-do-list is long - but we still have time to light a candle, drink coffee and enjoy some Smooth Jazz. 

Hope you´ll have a great weekend too.

Snow berrries

I just noticed that I haven´t posted any of my own photos for ages - only other peoples work - which is quite strange since I started this blog as a place to share both photos, ideas and inspiration. I think it´s due to the Borrelia infection which I blame for a lot of other things too - like why I haven´t written thank-you-cards to friends and family after our wedding, and why I haven´t done any exercise before our Bikini-holiday in 3 weeks time.... So next time I stop taking photos for a longer period of time - I just might as well go to the doctor a.s.a.p because it means I´m not well... But I´m fine now - eventhough this is an old photo.

Bambi>Borrelia>Blogbreak

It´s been quiet on my blog lately - due to a paralysing headache for the last 2 weeks. My doctor have now finally found the cause - which is a Borrelia infection.

The Borrelia comes from a tick-bite, and ticks live on mouse and deer - and since we are surrounded by deer and cute bambies in the summerhouse - I now know who´s to blame!

I´ll be back again when I get better. Take care - and remember to support Sabines Breast Cancer fundraising-project.

Pink for October

I had fun last year doing my "Pink for October" - so get ready once again for lots of pink posts here during October - and feel free to grab my buttom to the right if you want to join the Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Please leave a message if you plan to go "Pink for October" too.

And if you are new to my blog - you can read this post to learn why Breastcancer is an issue close to my heart.

My favorite things

The lovely and always inspiring Holly from Decor8 asked me to guestblog - while she is busy moving to Germany - what an honour! Holly has asked co-bloggers to share 5 of their favorite things in their home. My favorite things in my home will be shared one of the next days on Decor8 - I´ll let you know. But to be honest my favorite home right now is our summerhouse where we spend 3 wonderful and relaxing weeks in July. So as a little extra feature I´ve put together my 5 favorite things from our summerhouse also.

1. My new Baby Deer pillow by Sharon Montrose -
   and the 2 little baby deer outside the summerhouse.
2. Picking and arranging wild flowers.
3. That the weather was perfect for painting the house black and white (instead of white & blue).
4. Making my own ceramic bowls at a workshop with a local ceramist (both Nanna & I was very pleased with our results)
5. Simple living and doors wide open to the outside.
   
   
   

Copenhagen Sightseeing

We spend a day in Copenhagen this summer - looking at the various castles and sights - it´s always great to be a tourist in your own country.

Rosenborg, Amalienborg, Rundetårn.

Hello again

I´m just popping in again to let you know I´m back from my Holidays - and also back from my 3 week internet detox! The internet-detox was great and I highly recommend it - eventhough the first days were hard and with the same reactions like when you stop smoking... a bit scary actually to find out how much I love and am addicted to the Internet!

I have tons of deadlines in my studio and a wedding party to plan - but I´ll try to get back to the habit of posting on a regular basis - see you soon! p.s I missed you.

Summerhouse tour

I´ve noticed that I often refer to our weekends in our summerhouse - but forget to explain why I love this spot so much. So here are a few pics from this weekend - just to give you an idea why our little spot is so great.

Fishing for shrimps at the beach, relaxed lunch with lots of fresh fish and new potatoes, surrounded by green, and visits from our family and all their children.
