The power of now.

2011-04-24T22:48:00.000+01:00

Is the title of a very good book I am currently reading, written by Eckhardt Trolle. It´s hard to explain in a few words what it is about, but I can definately say it changes your way of thinking!
The book is about how to really learn to live in the now, and thereby avoid a life full of unnecessary worry. He talks about how most people today only identify themselves with their mind and forget to really see the beauty and magic in nature etc.
When you DO learn to let go of all your thoughts, and really dive into the now, you will feel amazing for a brief moment (as you get better at it it will last for longer of course). Well I had one of those moments the other day, and that´s what I wanted to share with you.

We were at some friends house having a barbeque. The sun was shining, the kids were playing and the adults were chit chattering. I was stood in the middle of it all, not participating in any of it, just watching, taking it all in.. Suddenly I noticed a hoverfly just in front of me. It stood still in the air, then it moved off very quickly but came back again and again. It did this a few times but then it stopped just in front of my face. The sun was shining from behind it and gave it a beautiful light - I could see the fuzzy body and the wings looked like they were glowing. It was sooooo beautiful, and when it happened it was like the world stood still! I had no thoughts, all became silent, peacefull and still. It might sound silly to you, but it was amazing to me! Now it´s just a memory, but I intend to have many more of those "enlightenments".

That brings me to a photo I took today, of a bubble. My kids looove bubbles and so do I!
These fragile but stunning soap wonders fly off in the wind - glowing, shining in the colours of the rainbow, only here for a brief moment, but loved by everyone.
I always feel like I want to take one and keep it or push the pause button and walk around it, admiring its beauty.. Well today i succeded in getting a picture of one before it was forever gone. Now I can always look at it and get that happy feeling in my tummy :)
If you love bubbles too, then feel free to stare at this photo as much as you like :)

I forgot to show you..

My latest summer dress. It was a gift for one of Noah´s pre School friends. I really hope she likes it!

Lullaby owl... again!

2011-04-02T14:49:00.000+01:00

Here comes the sun... Here comes a new baby - very soon! This owl is flying to Denmark very soon. I hope he will land in a loving new nest :)

It´s your world only!

2011-03-29T10:39:00.000+01:00

Your world exists only in your mind. No one can ever see things the way you see them. They can never feel things the way you do. They can´t think your thoughts and they will never experierence life like you do!

When I suddenly thought about this today, my mood lightened. The world as I see it is beautiful! If I can only stop trying to see the world through other peoples eyes, then my life will be wonderful. Why worry about what other people think, as you will never know for sure how they perceive the world - only they will.
So when you think about it - is the world as you see it beautiful and wonderful? Or are there some things that needs to be changed? Are they really your own worries, or worries you think others have towards you?

Start loving your world, start feeling special and unique. Embrace your world!

Sensitivity and problems in life.

So, things have been really good for some time now. Actually since i started on Prozac about 6 months ago. At first i was really against taking medicine. I didn´t feel depressed, so why take antidepressant!? But after several people had suggested it i finally gave it a go.. And what a change!!! It wasn´t untill i was on the med. that I could see how down and worried i had been for so long - most of my life really! All my anxieties disapeared, and instead i understood how dominating they really were.

I also started taking driving lessons again. I took several before i had Emil, but had a nervous brake down and stopped. This time it felt SO different! It felt GOOD! I felt invinsible. I felt ready for my test and when i failed it, it was like being hit with a hammer. WHAM what just happened here!?
All the nerves came sneaking back in, the worry and the anxieties.. I feel dizzy and exhausted. The change in season is also making a huge impact. I have been driving in the winter. Grey skies and naked trees. Now it´s spring time and my body is bombarded with info. Trees in bloom, yellow, pink, green and white. Flowers are everywhere. Sunlight is blinding my eyes. Now it is hard to focus on signs and the road. I quickly get so tired and my head hurts. It is a huge setback! Last driving lesson my instructor had to take over and drive me home. He was very understanding. He put on some Rolling Stones and gave me some sweeties :) It helped a bit. He doesn´t know why I am suddenly feeling like this, and it is hard to explain! I fear the look I will get when i mention the trancision from winter to spring.. Maybe i should just give him this blog adress..

Anyway. I have started to come off my medicine now. Something i really feared. But they are giving me some "NotSoNiceSideeffectsThatHasAHugeImpactOnmyPrivatelife" hehe (Prozac people know what i mean here)! So the end has come and i will have to see how my body and mind reacts to it.

I am nervous... xx

Spring is here!

So i just had to sew a little dress for my friends daughter Eilidh. She was one on saturday :)

Sensitive child, and adult!

2011-02-28T15:16:00.000Z

When i was little, i was often seen as someone living in my own little world. I was very shy, and often played on my own. I didn´t make friends easily, and moving around a lot didn´t help.
I was often told by my parents that i was too sensitive, and still i am sometimes told how much i used to cry as a child..
My mum had to restrict what i saw on TV, because if it involved animals and death or pain i would brake down and cry for several days. Even if it was just a film. A scene of a dog being left tied to a pole by the sea, and the being drowned by the tide, still haunts me today! I was probably 6 years old.
I HATED several itmes of clothing and refused to wear it. I couldn´t stand having my nails cut or my hair brushed! Some toys i couldn´t stand to touch, and some matresses gave me a rash.
Green squash gave me a rash and one time my mum ended up with me in hospital, because of huge blue marks on my thighs. I was screaming with pain but no one knew what it was! My poor mum was nearly acused of violence. None of my parents have ever hurt me physically!

I guess i have just got used to the fact that i have always been different. People remember me as being a bit weird. Even my dad´s speech at my wedding was all about me being different!

But the way i remember my life as a child is not as shy or very sad.. I remember all these HUGE feelings and sensations all around me all the time.. Sounds were loud, and i could smell things other people couldn´t. When i had my nails cut, it felt like my skin was all raw, not like in a painful way, but just very, very unpleasant. Like new skin that had never been touched..
I had a jacket that had some cuffs on that when they touched my wrists, sent chills down my spine (like nails on a blackboard)
One christmas i got "Sylvanian family" and i COULD.NOT.TOUCH them! Still can´t! Again it gave me chills. I never played with them..
I felt a huge love towards animals and insects. I would play in the garden for hours with little figures or collecting insects. I still remember one child who wanted to play with me, but i was busy playing with my ladybirds (had collected maybe 40 of them) He then squashed them ALL under his bike wheel..... I was heartbroken and ran home, sat in a corner and cried untill my mum came home!
When i had my hair brushed it felt so painful! I screamed with pain every time!
Sometimes when i met new people i felt very horrible inside, like a gut feeling. It wasn´t everybody who made me feel like that, but when they did i didn´t want to speak to them at all.
In School life was difficult, unless i was challenged all the time. I quickly got bored or drifted away in my mind. I would end up drawing, humming or whistleing to myself.
I have always loved music and it has a huge effect on me. As a child i would listen to music and then be able to play the melody on the keyboard. I yurned for lessons that never came.
I was very artistic and started drawing at an early age.

As an adult i am still like that. I CAN cut my nails now without problems but i CAN`T stand wrinkly fingers after a bath! It makes me cringe! I avoid putting my hands under the water completely when taking a bath.
I still can´t stand touching "Sylvanian family"
I easily get startled.
I hate loud sounds and avoid places with many people and loud sounds. I can´t filter sounds out and just hear everything at once. Horrible! Toddler groups is my worst nightmare!!!
I feel other peoples feelings and can get completely overwhelmed by it.
I have to avoid watching the news as it makes me incredibly depressed. A feeling that just doesn´t go away again! A feeling of pure sadness and no hope.
I also have to avoid anything about bad news including children or animals. I will cry for days, even months afterwards..
I adore nature! It fills me up with energy. If i am feeling down i just have to go outside and breathe in the fresh air and then i am instantly better. Long walks in stunning nature makes me feel more alive that ever!
I see and hear every little bird outside. I feel the wind kissing my cheeks and watch all the insects on their way. I stop on my way to lift a snail to safety from being run over. I will pick every insect out of the paddling pool to stop them from drowning.. I can spend hours on saving a bumble bee from drowning, drying it, giving it pollen and watching it slowly make it´s way back into nature. It is an amazing feeling!
I have an acute sense of smell and taste.
I sew, draw, paint, sing and play music. Unfortunately i still haven´t taken any music lessons so it´s still just listen and repeat :) in a basic way.
I suffer a lot from anxiety. Medicine is really helping now though!

All this time i have thought of my self as being weird, not fitting in etc!
But now i know different!
I was a highly sensitive child and now adult!!
And so is my eldest son Noah!
I am thrilled to know this now and embrace my free spirit as it is. I hope i can help my son too on his way in life, in a different way to my own.

Yay i feel GREAT!

New camera - fun with the boys - photoshop - yay!

Back to drawing!

2010-10-05T21:44:00.001+01:00

I used to love drawing! Since i was very little i was drawing whenever i could. I remember my dad drawing and painting, he was really talented and i would try and copy him. I have tried quite a few art courses, but never really finnished any of them. Somehow drawing ended up being something i feared. I think it was a mix of low self esteem and constantly being told that my style was too "comic like"... I found my self struggling to try and change my style to please others, but in the end i just ended up feeling miserable. Everytime i tried to draw again, i had these massive expectations that i couldn't meet. It always ended up in tears! So it has been a looooong time since i have done any drawing... BUT i recently got a Wacom board, and i am sloooooooooooowly starting again!!! It's really hard but also very lovely. It's a bit difficult to learn to draw on the computer, but when you get the hang of it you're hooked! I think i am finally starting to learn to love my style. It's me, it's who i am! Too bad if no one else likes it, cause i am starting to enjoy it.
I am still learning how to master the mouse pen, so bare with me...

Probably the luckiest girl alive?

2010-09-28T20:42:00.001+01:00

I must tell you, that i have one of the best husbands in the world!
Not only is he incredibly considerate, loving and handsome, noooo, he also loves to tidy, clean AND cook! He will massage my back or my feet whenever i need it! He daily tells me what a fantastic mother i am, and always asks me how i feel and how my day was.. Pretty special huh?

Well, just to add it all - he then also got me a gift this weekend................... A BRAND NEW CANON 7D !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! We just went to test the cameras i had my eyes on, and i fell in love with the 7D. 15 minutes later Matt buys the camera, a new lens, extra battery, a UV filter and a grey card!!! I nearly lost my jaw onto the floor :)
I can't even tell you how excited i am! I can't wait to try it out on some new models. Hopefully i will find some soon.
Here is a few photos taken with my new baby - i still need to learn a lot!

Did i show you?

2010-09-27T15:28:00.000+01:00

My 2 newest bags? They were for my dear friend Sara who lives i CPH in Denmark. She has 2 little GORGEOUS girls, who needed some cute bags for use in their nursery.

At give slip...

2010-09-24T19:57:00.000+01:00

Der sker ikke saa meget paa bloggen lige for tiden, og jeg foeler mig lidt skyldig! Undskyld! Der sker bare saa meget lige PT, og mit hovede er saa traet.. Jeg har lige fundet en dagplejer til Emil, bare 2 dage om ugen. Jeg traengte/traenger virkelig saa meget til en pause, og tid til at finde mig selv igen - kunne sy uden at skulle skynde mig - at kunne spise mad, uden at skulle smide det ind saa hurtigt som muligt - at kunne gaa paa toilettet uden 2 boern der klistrer op ad mine ben... Ja i kender det sikkert godt, jer med boern, de er skide dejlige, men nogle gange kan man bare godt blive lidt bims oveni!
Jeg har jo ikke haft en pause i 3 et halvt aar nu, og det kan maerkes, rigtig meget! Jeg er traet, stresset og lunten er kort. Det er ikke fedt, og jeg begynder ikke at kunne lide den jeg er for tiden - halvsur, traet, mopset, nedkoert, nervoes.. Saa derfor skulle der jo findes en loesning! Ergo en dagplejer........ Fint nok.... eller....... PUUUUH HAAAA HVOR ER DET HAAAAARDT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jeg havde det egentligt fint nok, indtil dagen kom hvor jeg skulle aflevere ham.. Jeg blev mere og mere nervoes, mit hjerte hamrede afsted, jeg svedte og havde mest af alt bare lyst til at glemme alt om det!
Jeg kom hen til Sally med Emil, og selvfoelgelig lige paa et tidspunkt hvor han var MEGA traet, lille pus.. Saa han blev IKKE glad! Han ville ikke spise (jeg gemte mig inde i stuen) og han begyndte hurtigt at graede, rigtig meget :( Jeg proevede at give ham en flaske, selvom han helst bare ville ammes, med han ville ikke have noget. Jeg proevede derefter at laegge ham ud for at sove, hvilket resulterede i at han graed endnu mere... ! Jeg havde det SAA skidt!!! Ingen af mine boern har nogensinde faaet lov til at graede uden at blive troestet af mig - men af en eller anden grund blev jeg overbevist af Sally om at jeg hellere maatte skynde mig at gaa, og saa ringe om en halv time... NEJ HVOR JEG TUDEDE DA JEG KOM HJEEEEEM!!!!!! Jeg var helt oploest! Det gav jo slet ingen mening, at efterlade mit barn hos en fremmed, i et fremmed hus, alene uden sin mor og oven i koebet graedende!!! Foej hvor jeg havde det skidt! Jeg ville helst bare styrte hen og hente ham igen, holde ham taet, og loebe hjem igen uden at stoppe.... Men det gjorde jeg jo ikke... Jeg fik en sms 15 minutter senere at han havde det fint nu.. Da jeg hentede ham sad han paa gulvet og graed, han var helt bleg og roed om oejnene. Det gav et stik i mit moderhjerte.. Han havde naesten ikke sovet og intet spist :(
Han har vaeret afsted en gang mere, og der sov han da jeg afleverede ham. Han blev ked af det da han vaagnede (sikke et chok at faa, pludselig er mor der, og naar man vaagner er hun pist vaek).. Den dag sov han heller ikke meget, og spiste intet igen. Af en eller anden saer grund tilbyder hun ham intet af det jeg har med til ham, kun rugbroed, men aldrig yoghurten, mandarinen eller rosinerne!?!
Han skreg igen da jeg hentede ham :(

Jeg er bare ikke god til at give slip paa mine boern, og bliver det nok aldrig! Jeg stoler simpelthen ikke paa folk! Jeg ved godt det er trist, men det kommer nok fra en bardom med lidt for meget at det negative. Jeg toer ikke stole paa folk, og tror altid de har skumle bagtanker. Det er faktisk ret haardt at indse.... Samtidigt med at jeg H I G E R efter en lille pause til mig selv, saa er jeg saa raed for at efterlade mine "babyer" i en andens favn, og mine tanker raeser bare afsted. "Hvad nu hvis de bliver misbrugt" - "Hvad nu hvis de ikke bliver troestet og lyttet til" - Hvis jeg hoerer en ambulance udenfor kommer tanken bare med det samme "Er det en af mine der er syge"... Jeg kan bare ikke slappe af!!! Det er et helved uden lige skulle jeg lige hilse at sige!
Nu frygter jeg bare mandag og torsdag hvor Emil skal passes ude, og ender med at flaebe hver gang. Jeg haaber det bliver bedre! Noah elsker heldigvis sin boernehave, saa det bekymrer mig ikke. Til gengaeld panikkede jeg saa, da en foraelder var meget ivrig efter at Noah skulle overnatte hos deres dreng.. Jeg kender dem ikke rigtigt endnu, er foerst lige begyndt at snakke med moderen, og synes maaske en paa 3 et halvt er lidt for lille endnu til at sove ude!? Han vaagner jo hver nat og SKAL ligge hos mig resten af natten for at kunne sove videre.. Hmm.. Maaske er det bare mig der er tosset!

Har i det ligesaadan? Har i svaert ved at give slip? Hvordan klarer i jer igennem sorgen?

LOVE!

2010-09-18T21:52:00.000+01:00

Visited a swedish friend a long time ago, and we played a really simple but sweet game with the kids. I fell in love with the graphics and just had to take some pictures of it. I LOVE the simplicity of it, and the bright colours. I think i might get it printed on to canvas or poster for the kids room.

Fairies.. I love fairies!

2010-09-12T08:54:00.000+01:00

I must share this wonderful book with you that i found in a charity shop some time ago. It looked like it had never been opened! I was amazed to see the gorgeous, enchanting drawings inside and fell in love with it instantly!
Take a look at this..

I think it is just magical!

En lille lue

2010-09-08T21:23:00.000+01:00

fik jeg da lige sneget mig tid til at lave :) Lilleprutten er så sur for tiden at det ikke bliver til meget tid ved min kære symaskine.. Men en lille lue tager ikke lang tid at lave, og det er så hyggeligt! Den her skal til Norge, hjem til Susi, som har en veninde der lige har født en lille prins. Håber både den nybagte mor og babyprinsen bliver glad for den!
Den er syet i nye retro stoffer, og blød blå babyfløjl. Jeg har foret den for ekstra varme.

Jeg drømmer...

2010-09-05T10:15:00.000+01:00

om et nyt fiiiint kamera! Canon 5D mark 2... Jeg har længe drømt om at komme igang med foto som en lille business. Det er det jeg elsker mest, og kunne bruge hvert sekund af dagen på. Nu har jeg haft Canon 350D læææænge, og kvaliteten er ikke som den skal være, ihvertfald ikke som prof. brug.. Jeg elsker mit kamera, det gør jeg, meeeeen det er tid til at opgradere!
Men hvordan dælen får en lille mor som jeg råd til sådan noget?? Jeg går jo hjemme, og passer børn.. Jeg får kun lidt fra kommunen hver måned til børnene, ca 1500kr så det strækker ikke langt. ØV! Det irriterer mig SÅ meget at alt i verden skal bestemmes af penge. Tænk alt det potentiale der ligger og lurer ude i verden, men som bare ikke har råd!
Jeg går rundt og synger "money money moneyyyyy must be funny in a rich mans world" for mig selv.. Min søde Mand vil jo så gerne købe det kamera til mig, men det har vi altså ikke råd til, og jeg vil heslt ikke have flere minusser på kortet!

Så har i nogle gode forslag til hvordan jeg kunne tjene nogle gode penge? Forslag modtages med kyshånd!

God søndag fra Lone, som dagdrømmer.......

I am not dead...

2010-08-29T22:09:00.001+01:00

But almost!! Well ok it's not THAT bad, but i must admit the last few weeks have been my hardest in a loooong time. 6 weeks holiday from pre school is just......... A recipe for disaster!! Especially when you have a "High need" child AND a crawling, nosy baby at home! There has been times when i wanted to call the men in white shirts - just the thought of the nice and calm invironment in the rubber cell seemed like a dream...... But things have turned around for the better now (hallelujah) and pre scool starts very soon (can't get my fat arms down)!!!

Somehow i still managed to start and finnish an order. My biggest project so far i think. Not that i havn't made a jacket before, but this one was just different... It was tricky! You know, the bias kept on moving and just didn't look nice. Never have i had to do something over and over so many times - i nearly gave up! But... I am just not one of those who can give up - even if i wanted to.. So i soldiered on and here it is, YAY!! It might not be anything special to you, but to me it was a little victory!

They're HERE!

2010-08-11T20:29:00.000+01:00

Weeeeeeee today my dear postman came.. With a little brown parcel for ME. I loooove little (or huge) brown parcels!! Nothing better than getting a parcel!
Inside the lovely parcel, was ANOTHER lovely parcel! A gift wrapped in gorgeous yellow paper. Oohhhh how exciting!!! I carefully opened the parcel, with a little help from Noah - who was equally as excited!
And.... There they WERE!!! Out new little friends :) YAY!
Not only was the wrapping lovely, but the 2 monsters are soooo cool and instantly loved. I absolutely LOVE the individual little stories about each monster, and even the label was uber cool!
What a fantastic swap - 2 dresses for 2 monsters!
TAK Susi, you are so talented - and a mad hatter :)

Look at my COOL new family members!

2010-08-04T23:04:00.000+01:00

These 2 guys are soon coming my way and i can't wait!!! I did a very cool swap with Susi from this fantastic blog: http://www.susiandthefrog.blogspot.com/

Blogland is just amazing i think!

Kjoler, kjoler, kjoler!

2010-07-26T15:50:00.003+01:00

Ja jeg maa jo indse det! Jeg bliver bare aldrig en str 36 igen... SUK!!! Jeg har nogle fiiiine kjoler haengende i mit skab, og jeg har bare gaaet og ventet paa at jeg skulle kunne hoppe i dem... Men men men.. saadan skulle det desvaerre ikke vaere.
Jeg har ikke tid til motionscenter, saa nu har jeg bestemt mig for at de skal finde nye hjem - hvis de da kan! Det er saa synd de ikke kommer ud og ser verden :)

Den foerste er denne skoenne sommerkjole - har aldrig brugt den. Den er str 36/38
Den koster 100kr Byttet vaek!

Den naeste er en skoen blaa kjole fra Topshop. Den er saadan lidt 60'er agtig og gaar til knaeene. Den er str 36 og saelges for 100kr Byttet vaek!

Saa er der denne fantastiske kjole fra Topshop, designet af Kate Moss. Den er stor str 40 og har aldrig vaeret brugt - har stadig maerket paa. Nyprisen er 50 pund, men den saelges for 300kr

Saa er der denne soede kjole. Den er fra H&M og har heller aldrig vaeret brugt. Jeg skulle have haft den paa til min polterabend, men det blev ikke til noget alligevel. Den er en str 40 og er af tynd chiffon med underkjole. Nu passer den ikke over babserne mere. Den saelges for 100kr SOLGT!

Den her kjole har heller aldrig vaeret brugt! Jeg var lidt for optimistisk og treoede paa at jeg en dag ville kunne klemme mig i den efter jeg havde foedt... Men nej, det kan jeg ikke! Den er str 36/38 og saelges for 50kr

Saa er der denne super soede kjole. Den er tynd og kraever en underkjole eller undertroeje under. Der er smaa groenne blomster paa. Den er str 36 og saelges for 100kr

Den sidste kjole er en jeg lige har koebt. Jeg proevede den ikke paa, og den kan desvaerre ikke retuneres. Den var slet ikke saa paen paa mig da jeg proevede den paa, saa den saelges hermed videre, med maerke intakt. Den er ret funky synes jeg. Den er i meget bloedt stof, rigtig god til efteraaret!
Den saelges for 75kr og er str 38/40

Det var det! Hvis du er interesseret saa bare skriv en mail til mig paa pippilone@gmail.com

Dungarees

2010-07-23T20:53:00.000+01:00

I have just sent these dungarees off to Denmark, where little Elias will be the new owner. I hope they fit and i hope they will bring joy!
I like them so much i have to make another pair for Emil :)

A lovely day out

2010-07-22T07:45:00.000+01:00

Se lige hvad posten kom med til mig idag :)

2010-07-20T21:18:00.000+01:00

Ja min kaere mand er jo ude at rejse (job) og han er virkelig savnet.. Isaer Noah har meget svaert ved at undvaere ham, og bryder bare sammen ved det mindste. Jeg blev endda ringet op af hans pre school idag, fordi han hele tiden broed sammen og ville have hans Daddy :(

Jeg HADER virkelig at se ham saadan, og jeg haaber virkelig alt det rejseri en dag stopper for good!

Noah er i forvejen et "High need barn" saa han reagerer 100 gange saa voldsomt som andre maaske ville. Han har virkelig svaert ved at bearbejde alle de foelelser, og alt bliver blaest endnu mere op. Det d r a e n e r mig virkelig for energi!!! Han kan blive ved og ved og ved, og de midler man normalt ville kunne bruge, virker ofte ikke paa ham. Saa jeg maa ofte tage en stooooor indaanding og taelle til 10 (5 gange) og huske mig selv paa at han ikke kan goere for det. Ofte har han bare brug for en stor krammer - og dem faar han mange af :)

Oven i det, fik Emil sig da ogsaa lige et blaat oeje her til aften! Han kan jo ikke kravle endnu, men han kan moeffe!! Saa han var kommet hen til sofabordet, havde hevet sig op, men faldt saa ned igen - lige paa oejet! Lille stakkel... Men der var ikke langt til et smil igen, heldigvis! Det ser ikke saa slemt ud her, men det er allerede bulet meget mere op :(

Godnat til jer allesammen derude.. Og al respekt til alle jer alene moedre, fatter ikke hvordan i klarer jer igennem dagen! Jeg er ihvertfald bare TRAET!!!

Ronja

2010-07-18T12:45:00.000+01:00

Sig hej til Ronja :)
Jeg fandt hende ude i mit trae i haven, godt gemt bag grene og blade..
Hun var lidt genert til at starte med, men det varede ikke laenge foer hun kom helt frem, og fortalte mig lidt om sig selv...
Ronja var engang en rigtig prinsesse, som boede paa et stort og flot slot. Men hun loeb hjemmefra for lang, lang tid siden, da hun skulle have vaeret giftet bort til Tudsekongen Knud. Det var bestemt ikke noget hun kunne sige nej til, saa den eneste loesning var at loebe vaek!
Nu bor hun saa ude i naturen, hvor hun lever af frugt og groent hun finder paa sin vej. Desvaerre er der ikke saa mange frugter tilbage i vores have mere, saa hun er lidt sulten.. Desuden er der ikke laenge til efteraaret snart banker paa doeren, saa lille Ronja har brug for et sted at bo.
Jeg tilboed hende at bo hos os lidt, og det takkede hun skam ja tak til. Emil er allerede meget glad for hende :)

Tid til en.... VINDER!!!

2010-07-16T12:50:00.000+01:00

Ja SAA kom dagen endelig. Nu er det tid til at finde en heldig vinder :)
Jeg havde dog lidt af et problem! Min mand er ude at rejse i 2 uger, saa jeg er alene med begge unger (GISP!) Der var jo SAA mange der havde meldt sig til, og SAA meget at faa skrevet ned!!! Det havde jeg altsaa slet ikke tid og taalmodighed til hihihi - saa da Matt ringede hjem lige foer, fik han lov at sige et tal mellem 1 og 100... Ihhhhhh det er spaendende :)

Vil i gerne vide hvem der vandt??

Ok ok saa!
Manden min sagde nr 4 Som er......................................... MIG SELV!!!! HAHHAHAH
Naa, men jeg talte efter igen, denne gang UDEN at taelle mig selv og mine 2 kommentarer med ;) Og saa blev det til.............................................................................................

JULIE som har bloggen Muselberg :) STORT tillykke Julie! Sender du lige en mail med hvilke farver den skal vaere i, og din adresse osv? (pippilone@gmail.com)

God weekend!

Uld???

2010-07-15T11:06:00.000+01:00

Jeg har 2 gange nu bestilt uld til at putte i mine dukker, men hver gang sender de mig noget helt andet end paa billedet!
Paa deres hjemmeside viser de dette:

Men de sender mig saa dette istedet:

Jen ANER ikke hvordan jeg skal fylde mine dukker med den slags rulleuld?? Er der nogen af jer det ved det??

I'm back!

2010-07-12T10:10:00.001+01:00

We had a wonderful holiday, with great weather and stunning nature. I really enjoyed every minute. A trip to a place called Becky falls was my favorite. It was like an enchanted forest! Noah and I were searching for Trolls and Fairies, he was completely into it and so was i :) Emil was sat high on daddy's shoulders in a cool backpack.
The strange thing was, that all of a sudden, whilst enjoying a trip to the beach, i suddenly felt soooo homesick - to Denmark, not the UK... I don't know why, but it made me feel a bit sad.
Anyway, here's few pictures for you :)

name pictures

2010-07-01T12:07:00.000+01:00

I have started to do these name pictures. I was very inspired from this great lady: http://lilblueboo.blogspot.com/2010/06/personalized-hardboard-nursery-art.html

It's really fun to make, and i can't wait to do more!!

Summer shirts!

2010-06-30T20:35:00.000+01:00

Elephants, elephants and more elephants!

2010-06-29T22:14:00.000+01:00

Remember all the frogs that suddenly appeared everywhere in my life? Well now it's elephants! I do love elephants, and today i just realized that Emil's room is flooded by those great, big, lovely animals..

I hadn't thought about it before, but then as i stood there and looked around his room (we have just started decorating it), i suddely noticed all the elephants :)

The letters are going up over the yellow elephants i have painted on the wall. They just need some clear varnish..

The framed picture is one i just finnished today. Now Noah want's one too - with monsters on, of course!

Here is a few pictures of what the rest of the unfinnished room looks like:

Chubster LOOOOVE

2010-06-24T21:34:00.002+01:00

How can you not LOVE this little face? He is just sooooo gorgeous!!!

He is soooo grumpy at the moment though.. Frustrated that he can't crawl or walk. He is like a stranded whale, desperate to be able to move. So... He spends most of the day with being quite grumpy and doing strange moves on the floor :) But never the less - he is my little chubster and i love him to bits!

Now this little man - he is cheaky as h... He keeps me awake most nights, and sometimes he nearly drives me utterly and completely MAD! But he is also so incredibly loving and thoughtfull. I can't even tell you how many times he says "i love you mummy" in a day. Sometimes he stops and strokes my face, or gives me a little kiss whilst looking at me with those big blue eyes. Adorable and so special he is. I am proud of my little man!

What should have been a summer jacket...

2010-06-19T21:09:00.001+01:00

Turned into an autumn jacket instead. 3 layers made it quite heavy and warm, but none the less very cosy too :) It's ok because it's still a bit big for the little man.. He is refusing to let me get a picture of him in it, but i will try and sneak one out of him when he least expects it heeheehee. I don't know why, but he gets all funny about wearing stuff i have made for him haha, is it really that bad ? :)

Here it is:

Owl pillows and so on..

2010-06-14T13:27:00.002+01:00

These owl pillows just need "real" button eyes now, then they are ready to be shipped to Denmark for a lady called Ena. I hope she will love them just as much as i do. The hearts are made of soft velour.

Then i wanted to show you my little work corner. I have just received a really cool cabinet for some of my fabric etc. You choose the colours yourself, and choose if you want drawers, open space or cuppard doors. Very cool i think :)

And... Tadaaaaaah! I have FINALLY had succes in using cool paper on furniture. I have tried so many times but every time these horrible air bubbles ruined it. But with some good advice i now finally know how to do it! YAY

Finally i want to show you the chest of drawers i have sanded down and paintet for the little ones room. I think it looks fab :)

Have a niiiice day!

Kiss the frog :)

2010-06-04T09:15:00.001+01:00

Suddenly we seem to have been invaded by frogs! It wasn't something i planned but i just suddenly realized that frogs had sneaked in here and there.... It started with a pair of overalls. A friend ordered some and gave me free hands to design them (yayyy). So i chose a looovely and very soft pinstriped material, but then they needed something to spice them up a bit.. Yes why not, some frogs!

Then i finnished a sweet dress i started on a while ago. It was all done, but again something was missing... Yeeees... a frog!

On top of that, my son Noah came running out to me the other day in town, with a new umbrella his dad bought him... A green frog umbrella!!! That is just funny i think :)

A few new pictures

2010-06-01T21:34:00.001+01:00

My very tiny and very new nephew, Eliaz...

And my own little chubster, Emil..

I hope it will fit...

2010-05-07T21:08:00.001+01:00

the little boy Kristian, who is getting this new set of clothes, that his mum ordered from me. He is going to a christening and needed to look his best :) His mum also bought his sister this dress (which you have seen before) I think they will look fab together :)

My musical Owls

2010-05-03T19:14:00.002+01:00

I just looove making these musical owls, even though they cost quite a bit to make. New ideas keep popping in to my mind, and then i just have to get them out.
I have made 4 so far, but unfortunately forgot to get a picture of the one i have given away.. Nevermind! I have a picture of the 2 newest ones for you to see :)
They are both gifts for new little baby bundles.

If you are interested in buying your own unique owl, please don't hesitate to contact me!

Big BIG love!!

2010-04-16T19:47:00.001+01:00

Han er sgu bare DEJLIG!

"When you wish upon a star"

2010-04-15T10:31:00.001+01:00

is the melody of this sweet owl i just made for my youngest son. Next project is a girlie one, and maybe an elephant.

A blog to make you smile

2010-04-11T09:33:00.001+01:00

A good friend of mine, (who unfortunately i haven't seen for years) has got some fantastic blogs, that i would like to share with you. We used to study animation together maaaaany years ago. I remember (when i started the course) how i for the first time in my life, felt like i had "come home". Everybody was just as weird as me!!! I LOVED it... Unfortunately i also suffered a lot with anxiety attacks, and i chickened out when we had to do work experience and teach children for a week. We were supposed to go out 2 and 2, but my partner suddenly realized she didn't have to do it anyway, so i was on my own... Something i just couldn't do! So i just dropped out, just like that.. I should have talked to somebody about it, but i was too scared and embarrased. I think i will always regret that..

Anyhooooo! Zarah, my friend, who DID finnish the course now has these great blogs filled with fantastic drawings, vector art, stickers, poster etc etc etc. One of her blogs is this one: http://www.amonsterday.blogspot.com/ is filled with fab monsters, a new one every day. They really always make me smile!
I have just ordered these 3 great posters for my eldest son.

Another blog of hers: http://www.zarahjuul.blogspot.com/ is filled with all of her fantastic art. I can spend so long just admiring her unique style and great ideas. Take a look and be inspired! Here is a little teaser

She also has an online gallery: http://www.galroyal.com/

Please take time to look at these inspiring blogs. You will not regret it :)

My first jacket and an extra gift

2010-04-08T11:48:00.001+01:00

I just had to try and sew a little spring jacket for Emil, and here it is. It's my first time with lining and zip.. Not too easy, but ok for my first try i think :)
I also finnished a pair of summer trousers for my nephew. So now they can go into the bag i sewed for him, and be shipped of to my dear Denmark.

What GORGEOUS weather we have by the way!!! Must go for a looong walk today :)

Summer dresses finally finnished.. And a gift for my nephew

2010-04-02T11:25:00.002+01:00

These 3 dresses had just been lying around for ages, unfinnished and collecting dust. But now i finally got around to finnising them! Also finnished a present, a bag, for my lovely nephew who is three on the 12th this month :)

Absolutely in LOVE!

2010-03-31T22:16:00.001+01:00

With my 2 gorgeous little gems! They are so very special in very different ways. It's funny how different 2 children can be. When i was pregnant with Emil, Matt and I just couldn't envisage anything other than a Noah 2.. But Emil is nothing like Noah, yet anyway!
Noah was quite fragile when he was a baby. He cried every night and would only sleep if we danced to "these arms of mine" by Otis Redding (gives you great muscles)! He was quite hard to get to smile or laugh, or maybe he just had a sophisticated sense of humour hehe.. Now he is an exceptionally loving and caring child. I have never met a child like him before. Sometimes i almost forget he is only just 3... Often he will stop what he is doing, give me a little smile and say i love you mummy. He is just so special.
Emil... Little chubster.. He is just soooo happy! He is giggleing non stop and he is always ready with a massive smile. He sleeps much better than Noah ever did, and is twice the size! He now wears what Noah wore when he was 12 months plus... One thing they definately share is the loving and caring personality. Even though Emil is only 6 and a half months old, he is still so affectiounus. He reaches out and cuddles you.. I feel so blessed!!!

Happines in a box. (with link)

2010-03-30T20:47:00.002+01:00

Retro heaven! Our dear mail man delivered a big box the other day, full of lovely goodies just for me.. Well, and the rest of the family of course :) We found a great website full of retro stuff, quite cheap as well! YAY! Here is a few pictures of some of it:
Here is the link: http://www.iloveretro.be/ She will not be updating this website anymore though, but she is on ebay instead!

A passion for jewellry..

2010-03-23T10:44:00.001Z

Since i was a little girl i have been totally transfixed by shiny objects. My brother was the same. So for many years i have been collecting and buying jewellry, especially brooches. There's just something about the way they shine, i am drawn to it, mesmerized.. I don't care if it's real diamonds or just made of glass, as long as it's shiny :)
I don't really wear it, so it just sits there in many different boxes. A shame really.. But i plan to be one of those old ladies FULL og shiny jewellry one day...

What is your passion/weakness?

Lidt mere lopperi og en hyggelig dag!

2010-03-21T21:44:00.001Z

Min mand rejste idag til Seattle i en uge, saa loerdag brugte vi paa at raahygge sammen. Vi tog til en hyggelig lille by der hedder Abingdon. Jeg fik frie toejler i et stykke tid, mens drengene sov i bilen (ja far faldt ogsaa i soevn hehe). Jeg fik besoegt hele 5 genbrugsbutikker og fandt nogle fine ting, synes jeg selv da. Det er i grunden saert, hvad det er der faar en til at reagere, og falde for noget bestemt. Det kan vaere en farve, en form, et bestemt aarti.. Men hvad det er der lige praecis faar ens hjerte til at banke lidt hurtigere, det ved jeg ikke.. Ved du?

Naa, der tabte jeg vidst lige traaden!

Jeg fik som sagt shoppet lidt genbrug, og fik ogsaa besoegt en lille, super rodet men rigtig god stofbutik. Altsammen UDEN boern... AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... Efter min lille shoppingtur moedtes jeg med manden min og mine 2 dejlige drenge. Vi gik ind og fik en portion fish and chips, paa saadan et rigtig typisk, gammelt diner sted. Det er bestemt ikke et koent sted. Der er ret fedtet, og indretningen har vidst ikke aendret sig siden 80'erne.. MEN, maden er SUPER GOD, og dem der arbejder der er saa soede. Boernene maa godt staa op paa baenkene og synge, danse, lege og spilde maden paa gulvet.. Folk snakker sammen henover bordene og alt i alt er det bare rigtig hyggeligt! Saa vi noed det :) Saa var det blevet tid til at koere hjem, hvor vi hyggede noget mere med nachos og god TV. En dejlig dag var det.

Idag kom Grandma og hyggede om os. Vi gik en lang tur i solen. Besoegte legepladsen. Moedte en soed svensk pige som jeg fik en god snak med..

Nu er her ret tomt.. Noah sover.. Emil sover, men ikke saerlig godt. Han har mareridt for tiden, og vaagner ofte op med et stort hyl. Det er ikke rart! Han kan kun sove hvis han sidder i sin vippestol og bliver rokket. Om natten spiser han hver time eller mere, saa det er bare haardt! Men jeg overlever ved at messe: DetErBareEnFase DetErBareEnFase DetErBareEnFase......
Jeg savner allerede Matt.. Selvom han rejser saa meget saa vaenner jeg mig aldrig rigtigt til det. Jeg ER bare ikke god til at vaere alene. Jeg bryder mig ikke om det! Godt jeg har mine 2 guldklumper paa hver side om natten :)

Jeg er blevet traet og vil hoppe i seng, men her er lige lidt billeder af de forskellige ting jeg fandt og fik koebt :)

Mine nye FIIIIINE stoffer posten kom med :)

Godnat derude...........

Lidt godter til drengene

2010-03-20T21:01:00.002Z

Uhhh den anden dag kom posten med nogle fiiiine ting til de smaa banditter. Ja ja, jeg vidste jo godt de var paa vej. Jeg havde jo selv bestilt dem over nettet, men det goer det nu ikke mindre spaendende naar posten kommer og banker paa!
Noah ELSKER naar postmanden kommer! Han fiser med lysets hastighed ud til doeren og aabner. Maaske dette afsloerer at vi er storforbrugere af online shopping hehehe :) Men det er sgu saa nemt, og det jo saa hygsomt naar pakken saa endelig ankommer ik?!

Naa, men denne gang var det til drengene mine. Noah fik 2 seje metal kufferter med hans helte paa. Batman og Superman. Ihhh han var STOLT! Men de er da ogsaa flotte

Den anden pakke var til lille Milsen. Min egen lille frikadelle. Mor's lille fede prop.. Han skulle have en RIGTIG fin spille... spille.. dims.. hvad soeren hedder saadan en nu paa dansk? Det er da ikke en spilledaase er det? Arghhhhhh HADER naar jeg glemmer ord, og troede ikke det var muligt, men det er det! Har da kun boet her i 6 aar.. Det er for daarligt.. sgu!

Naa, men fin er den ihvertfald! Den er lavet af handicappede og var ret dyr. Men saa gaar pengene jo heldivis til noget godt, og flot det er den! Se selv:

Den er koebt paa en DEJLIG side der hedder www.myriadonline.co.uk

Ja jeg har ogsaa faaet lavet et par bukser mere, til Emil. De skulle vaere str 1 aar, meeeeeen, jeg synes de er KAEMPE! Men hvad, han skal jo nok kunne passe dem en dag :) Isaer med den fart han har paa! De blev slet ikke som jeg ville have det, og jeg bryder mig faktisk ikke saa meget om dem.. Men maaske med en soed stribet troeje under... Hmmmm vi faar at se.. en dag.

Til sidst lige et par billeder af mine 2 basser

Hold da op :)

2010-03-15T09:39:00.001Z

Jamen jamen jamen! Jeg har lige fordoblet mine faste laesere siden Karen anbefalede min blog. Det er da vildt synes jeg! Det goer mig baade glad, men ogsaa lidt nervoes. Taenk sig, 44 mennesker vil gerne se og hoere hvad jeg laver. Saa maa jeg jo hellere faa skrevet noget, og faa taget nogle billeder :)

Jeg syer jo, saa snart jeg ser mit snit til det. Det er ikke altid nemt at faa tid, paa trods af at jeg gaar hjemme paa fuld tid med 2 unger. Noah skal i Pree school mandag og tirsdag, men kun halve dage (det eneste de har ledigt). Saa de to dage er jeg noedt til at vente inde i byen, indtil jeg skal hente ham. Det tager for lang tid at gaa hjem, for han er der kun fra 11.30 til 15. Saa de 2 dage gaar hurtigt!
De dage hvor han er hjemme, gaar det meste af tiden med at se til ham og lillebror. Der skal mades, leges, laeres, ryddes op, ryddes op, ryddes op, RYDDES OP, goeres rent osv osv.. Men naar den lille Emil sover, og Noah flader ud til en film, SAA SYER MOAR. Hold op man kan sy staerkt hvis man skal! Ja, det resulterer ofte i en masse fejl der skal spraettes op, men jeg haaber jeg en dag bliver saa sej til det at det ikke sker mere (MMmmmm ja ja)..

Jeg er igang med Elsebeth Gunther bogen, som i nok har bemaerket. Jeg har altid ville sy boernetoej, men anede bare ikke hvordan. Nu er jeg endelig kommet igang, og jeg ELSKER det bare! Det er langt fra perfekt, men det er ihvertfald hyggeligt :)
Noah naegter pure at gaa med det jeg syer hahahha, hmmmmm, mon det siger noget om kvaliteten hahhahah. Maaske er han bare ikke til retro... hehe

Her lidt billeder af det jeg sysler med lige nu:

En naesten faerdig skjorte/jakke, skal bare lige have min nevoe's aerme maal..

En anorak til Noah, som han ikke vil have paa. Den blev desvaerre ogsaa lidt for lang i aermerne..

Mit FIIIIIINE stof, som jeg koebte online her i UK. Det er dansk tror jeg, og fra 70'erne tror jeg. Nederst i hjoernet staar der Ulla. Jeg tror jeg skal have det sat op paa et kvadrat laerred, og haengt det op :) Det er ikke saa stort, og allerede en kvadrat, saa det ville vaere synd at klippe i stykker!

Og til sidst, mit lille arbejdshjoerne. Det roder.... Jeg roder altid..

Naarh jo, og saa skal i da lige se vores fine blomster, som vi koebte i IKEA i loerdags.

Tak fordi i laeste med saa langt! Nyd solen :)

Loppefund

2010-03-03T13:23:00.001Z

Inspireret af andre blogs med fine loppefund, fik jeg lige lyst til at vise lidt af mine fine ting frem. Den her smukke daase fik jeg idag af min dejlige mand :) Synes bare den er SAA flot! den skal hurtigt blive fyldt med syting.

Og her er nogle af mine yndlingsting. Genoptryk af Christel, en fin keramikpige og den nye daase igen

Og lidt legegodter. Elsker dem simpelthen.

Jeg har MANGE flere smukke, skoere og fine loppefund. Jeg skal nok laegge flere billeder end af dem en af dagene :)

Sommer kjoler

2010-02-26T15:29:00.002Z

Jeg har faaet syet mine foerste 2 kjoler nogensinde. Det var nu sjovt nok, saa det er nok ikke de sidste der kommer :)

En tur i genbrugeren :)

2010-02-20T12:02:00.001Z

Havde saadan en fornemmelse af at der var "noget" der ventede paa mig inde i byen. Jeg fik lokket manden min med, og soerme om jeg ikke fandt nogle fine ting. Foerst en masse stof, som ikke er blevet stroeget hehe

Og saa lige de fedeste moenstre:

Og til sidst lige mit ebay stof, det er saa fiiiint!

A hat for my baby :)

2010-02-19T19:03:00.002Z

My first one. He seems to like it. It was fun to make and i will definately be making more!

Say hello to Viola

2010-02-16T10:44:00.000Z

Finally, a new doll! I have been wanting to make one for a while, but time is limited with 2 kids at home. But here she is. Her name is Viola :) She is stuffed with organic wool and her hair is made of 80% bamboo and 20% wool

Retro trousers

2010-02-14T17:23:00.002Z

I got a fantastic book for my birthday. It's full of childrens clothes from the 70'es and soooo COOL! So now, whenever i get time (once in a blue moon) i sew and sew. These are my favorite at the moment, or that particular pattern. They are quite easy to sew, but still i make 100 mistakes on the way. Oh well, practise makes perfect (do you say that in english??)

And trousers for Noah with stars made from an old shirt. Also took the pocket from the shirt :)

Playing with photoshop

2010-01-16T10:11:00.004Z

I am so inspired from all you creative people blogging! So many beautiful papers, sketches, fabrics etc just makes me so happy! So felt inspired to play a bit in photoshop. Not my strong side, at least not when it's not on pictures.. It's not the greatest, but hey, it was FUN, and that is the most important of all :)

Another doll :)

2009-12-04T12:31:00.003Z

This is my third doll, and probably the one i like the best. It's amazing how attached you get to them when you're sewing away. Maybe it's all the times you prick yourself on the needle.. Or all the times you have to start over again when doing the hair.. Or the time you spend trying to get the eyes just right. I don't know what it is, but it definately has an impact on your heart :)

I gave this one to my god daughter Matilde, along with a little suitcase full of clothes. She liked it, and i know that when she is bigger she will have great fun playing with her. It's nice to know she will get a good home.

I feel another one coming.. soon!

A doll for my firstborn

2009-11-25T18:31:00.003Z

Mini Noah is celebrating big Noah. He was 3 on the 11th of feb. My little baby is 3!!!! Can you believe it, i know i can't.. He is so incredibly loving and just so special. I know i am biased, but i really never have met a child like him before. We must have done something right :)

I wanted to make a doll for my son, a little mini Noah. I hope that he will one day be really happy he has got a little mini twin :) At the moment he couldn't care less hahahah.. It was fun to make and it's my second doll now. I have already started on a new one (i think i am hooked, shhh) Here is mini Noah

a few more

2009-11-23T14:26:00.004Z

My first Steiner doll

2009-11-15T11:58:00.003Z

I went on a doll workshop at the weekend and made my first proper Steiner/Waldorf doll. It was great fun and VERY hard!!! I really enjoyed that weekend. Lot's of ladies sat around small tables, sewing, chatting and drinking loads of tea. I could do that every weekend!
It is made only of natural materials and stuffed with organic wool.

Easy to make soft sock balls

2009-11-10T11:58:00.001Z

Have a bit of fun with your little ones and make these very easy balls. They are soft and fun to play with inside, especially on a rainy day like today!

Take a sock and fill the end with stuffing (maybe you have an old pillow you don´t need anymore) or you can buy it in most craft shops. Don´t use feathers.
Snip of the rest of the sock 2 cm above the stuffing.

Sew the end togheter and stuff the end bit of the sock inside the ball. Sew in and out all the way around and pull together, hold it and sew it so it closes the hole.

You can put a bell inside for more fun, or maybe crincly paper :) Have fun!

Gift boxes

2009-08-27T15:45:00.000+01:00

These cute little boxes would be even cuter with a small gift inside for someone special.
