Houses in Denmark have to be better than apartments in Denmark—so, I’m thinking about buying a house! I’m beyond tired of listening to other people’s televisions and kids. I’m over having to sign up a few days in advance for a laundry time. I’m sick of having to schedule appointments and errands around the probability of finding a parking… Continue Reading

Home Tour: My White Danish Kitchen

Today, I’ll show you a few photos of my romantic bohemian style bedroom in Denmark, which is “soverværelse” on the floorplan. I’ve always wanted a home with a laid back bohemian vibe and I got it in this crooked old apartment with its shabby edges and the secondhand treasures I’ve used to furnish it. It really… Continue Reading
Home Tour: The Studio & Hallway
We’ll continue our tour in the “Værelse/Opholdsstue” in the floorplan and since there’s not much to see, I’ll throw in the hallway (“Gang”) as a bonus! I’ve never known what to call this room. It’s so much more than an office, so I’ve settled on calling it “the studio.” It’s where I work, sew, write,… Continue Reading
