Mina barn börjar bli för stora för att leka med leksaker. Men inte jag! Jag konfiskerade ett gäng övergivna leksaksdjur och omvandlade dem till julpynt. Det här måste vara ett av de roligaste julpysslen jag har gjort på länge! Jag gick loss med julpynt och konstsnö och fick ta ut svängarna precis så mycket jag …
(and a DIY crown, a flea market-belt, a DIY necklace, a wig and just plain ordinary clothes!) Sometimes I think about how much fun we’ve had already with these particular curtains – flea market finds that didn’t cost a lot of money, and that I transformed into a skirt by simply sewing them together and …

The nights here in Finland are getting darker and darker. I’m combating the dark by lots and lots of homemade candles. Candles are an essential part of Danish hygge, and essential for bringing a sensible light into the house after dark (blue light from screens and some light fixtures is not good for your circadian …
Det blev en hel del byggt den här sommaren, trots sommarhettan. Först blev växthuset klart och sen i bara farten fixade Niklas en ny grillplats åt sig. Här kan han stå och grilla i ur och skur. Eller sjunga karaoke, eller hålla teatermonologer! För den blev stor den här grillplatsen, känns lite som en …
Vädret samarbetade inte på midsommar, så jag beslöt mej för att skapa egen sommar inomhus. Jag började med att göra nya somriga vimplar. Det är något med broderade tygbitar som liksom känns sommar.

It is so much fun making these photo shoots! We get to really dig into our creativity, and the girls get to envelop themselves their roles and enjoy running around being princesses. I enjoy both being behind the camera and looking through the pictures afterward. Sometimes those really happy moments really do get caught on …
I am so glad I got to catch the moment when the cherry trees bloomed the most, when the summer warmth came billowing in and we all got a whiff of a summer vacation. It was utter loveliness! RSS | Instagram | Pinterest | Facebook
*The Princess of Pargasia had a visit by one of her princess buddies the other day. We took the opportunity to do a little photo shoot in the lovely summer weather. All the clothes are upcycled, the crowns are DIY:ed by me, and we added some fresh cherry flowers. It was a …
We’re having such wonderful summer weather! It was such a magical evening last night. A perfect night for a princess photo shoot. My assistant (i.e. my youngest son) and I followed two princesses that trailed long trains behind their dresses and frolicked in the amazing sunset. More pictures to follow! RSS | Instagram | …
I sometimes get the urge to produce something creatively with my hands, and what often comes out of that are crowns of all sorts. This one feels like a fairy crown, with all the little foresty details. I started by making a crown frame using brown wire with these little red buds. I rummaged through …
