Christmas and New Years eve has come and gone. I feel relieved, now life can go back to normal again. And a whole new year ahead… anything can happen! Isn’t that exiting? And nobody knows what it might be… laying there around the corner waiting for us to go get it, grab it and haul […]

Ouch, it’s a Totoro invasion
Hope you had a great holiday! Totoro is one of my favorite animated characters ever. He is a forest spirit with a great yawn – and he is the lead character in the anime movie Tonari no Totoro directed by Hayao Miyazaki. If you haven’t seen the movie, you should. It’s totally cute as I […]
Christmas coming up…
Christmas is coming up around here, and you can really tell. Mom’s cookbook is out and it has lots of goodies inside. A craft-piece by itself. Leave me with a knife, and I go nuts… Cooking chocolate toffee, one of my favorites! Just cream, sugar and chocolate! Mmm! Glazing some gingerbread cookies with blue, white […]
Art Doll | My version of Queen Elisabeth as an Art...
When this art doll (she is my #4) was born I thought that she really looked like a queen. And when P saw her he said something like that, that she looked royal, so we named her Elisabeth>. She is much paler (brown and gray) in colour than the others (that was more pinkish), but […]

Tiny trees for my Christmas Cards
When I was in France this summer, I found these small trees in a craft store. When bought they obliged me to make Christmas cards this years. I haven’t done that since I was a kid. I’m not a Christmas Crafter at all. This year though I did lots of cards just because of the […]
A Calendar Page in my diary and some doodles
I haven’t made too much in my art journal lately, but a couple of days into December I made my first calendar page (for this month) and started filling it with office parties and events we’ve got planned. I’ve been wanting to try to make such a page for a while now. It looks very […]
Studio Friday: Ta-dah!
Studio Friday theme is something that makes you go Ta-dah! Thank you all for your congratulations to the new camera. I’m calmer now, and experimenting with it a lot, and yesterday we went out in the evening to try to take night shoots. But it was to freezing cold for a long walk. P took […]
Nikon d50 is my New Camera
I used my savings and bought a new camera today. It’s thrilling, exiting, great and scary. I’m not used to spending money at all, and now when I spend a lot of money lots of thoughts come swirling in my brain: Did I do the right thing? Is this thing worth all that money? What […]
Live with a smile
I just want to finish my Christmas cards, but now it’s time to got to bed. But first something I did today: Yes, I tied red silk ribbons around the white candles I made in school. Nice, huh? And then I wrapped it all in see-through plastic paper with small dots on (looks like snow) […]
A Knitted Christmas Gift
I bought the yarn for this Baby Cap and Cardigan in April, as a planned Christmas present for my boyfriends sister’s baby. It took a lot more time to knit than I had expected, and to sew together the cap was really a strange experience. But now it’s all done. With buttons and this week […]
