If you follow me on instagram or flickr you might have noticed that this week I spent a few days in Venice, Italy. And it was beyond word marvelous! It’s been a few years since I was abroad last on a “real trip” like this, and I have longed to go somewhere, anywhere for quite […]

A Favorite Method of Art Journaling
Today a simple page featuring pink leftover scraps, created on loose paper to later be bound into an art journal. Sometimes I think this is my favorite kind of art journaling: picking up little bits of this and that and just gluing it down on a page. It doesn’t involve very much thinking, yet it […]

The lost Bear that Karen made, is sitting in the window looking out. One day when it was snowing outside, she thought to herself: I think I will stay in and make art! Related PostsFrom Mom’s yarn basket Scottish patterned teddy bears A Knitted Teddy, called James
Art Journal Peek: an owl love storie
Here is another peek into my Art Journal. I doubt that I will add anything much to this page, even though this is how it looked when I created the book. I really like this look as it is. I like how the terrace on the right is paired with the view of blue earth […]

It’s true that we don’t know what we’ve got until we lose it, but it’s also true that we don’t know what we’ve been missing until it arrives. Oh no! I lost my my knitted cap on the commute train the other day! I thought I’d go into town and look for it at once, […]

Talking to a squirrel
I was out walking in my new shoes, stopping to snap a photo of them. Well, new to me shoes, bought in a second hand shop for 45 SEK. Love my new shoes. I defiantly have a thing for shoes, maybe because I buy new ones so seldom? Walking and admiring my new-to-me-shoes I heard […]

A Grey Cat comes to visit and I get some...
I’m at my parents house, visiting. They’ve given away the budgie Raffe and the rabbit Tsatziki, so when I first came home the house kind of felt “empty”. I always talk to the animals, and notice them. I’m just that kind of person. I talk to birds when I bike, and stop to talk to […]
Snow globes are easy to break
I’ve been to a birthday party. A real one, for a 1 year old boy. I packed my thrifted handbag and dressed, in yes you guessed right, pink top and flowery skirt! I wore my beautiful black thrifted shoes, that says clickty-clack when I walk. I wish I could wear beautiful shoes more often, but […]
