taga two in one

If I was a mother to be, I would seriously consider buying a stroller like this,
that you can convert into a bike pretty easy.
I am sure that it works well in the city.

neon swing

Summer just around the corner and the swing in the garden is already on a hard job. If you do not have a garden or the weather is for indoor aktivety, this swing is a good alternative and at the same time great to look at. (swing)

patterns

Walking the streets of London these days for inspiration and came across these amazing patterns at Stella McCartney. And the great Michelin man at the Bibendum

pink hat

For shades and for the love of pink. (buy)

fun camping

Why does a tent have to be green or blue, when you can be a happy camper with a crafty tent like this?
Have a great weekend.

findings from nature

My kids love to collect things they find, it could be a stone, a branch, a plastic lid, feathers and/or a shell, I love it but some times it is hard to find a place for them all — but to use a feather in an arty mobile or have a beautiful box like this to display your feathers and keep your finds, is an idea I love.  

arboretet

The other day I went to a place called Arboretet - which means "a place with threes" and that it is indeed. We all fell in love with this birch its colors and the way that you can remove bark and reveal a new layer and new colors. We will for sure come back when the threes bloom. (Arboretet)

Oeuf, had some amazing new things the eiffel tower and gray doves, bubble toys in wood and great colors from lovely Kukkia, neon clothing for fun and for kids walking in the dark from Zorrobelgium.

The mild winter defiantly make you want to drive your bike a lot more than normally during winter, if I did not have my youngest daughter on the back of bike I would love one of these bags to carry home the groceries. se more great product from Georges et Rosalie

omhu - with great care

I think I will start this new year "with great care" or as we say in Denmark OMHU. My friend in New York has designed these amazing canes because she cares for other people. At OMHU they strive to make well-designed products that help people who need help with simple tasks such as walking, bathing, or reaching overhead.
Quote from the site:"By creating more exciting choices of things that help, we hope we can also help change the way people feel about aging and ability.  Because everyone’s getting older – even you!"

stone trolls

Some weeks ago in the kids fall holiday, we went to the summerhouse. At one of our trips, we went by this nice shop, and when we saw these stone we all fell in love with them. Sadly I can not find the name of the artist.

tomorrow

Tomorrow it is all about lighted pumpkins and scary costumes - my girls have instructed me in what they would like to look like, tomorrow night. Hope I can find the right wig and black nail polish. Happy halloween.

spider web

made this for a Danish magasine some years ago - but at the moment it is relevant with all the spiderswebs in the garden.

This is how you make your own:

you will need:
black cardboard or paper
talc
hair spray
scissors.

Here's how:
1: find a spinders web, preferably a place where you can easily put a piece of cardboard behind it.

Beware! 
Check web for spiders before you begin - only use webs where there is no spider.

2: spray the web with hair spray
3: spray on talc and then spray with hairspray again.
4: place the carton behind the web, so it caught on the carton. Cut or tear gently the ends and let it stick to the carton. put it to dry.
