Have something with flowers lately, must be the spring and the longing for summer and for Sweden.
This cap with embroidery from Dala-Floda, I found back today when searching through some old boxes on the attic.

It was this photo by Liiviana Talossa that brought me there.

A box with variation of "sorgdräkten" (traditional clothes for periods of moaning) almost finished. Illustration
It's become more sober and not as colourful as this one (this small box with a variation on the traditional women’s dress for festivities will soon be available again in the fiasaskshop, or at least more or less the same)

A few days ago, I wanted to explain what "kulning" was but the attempt was without success and I surely couldn't perform it, prefer to leave that to Lena Willemark

Lotta is in Cairo now, think I’m secretly a bit jealous,
it’s so enriching with new smells, colours, impressions.
For me holiday is Sweden of course, but also Portugal.

Remember Herbert, who felt so lonely?
It really couldn’t go on like that, we just had to adopt two more.
So now Herbert has his own little family.
The small one is so cute.

If you too feel like adopting a Herbert lookalike,
these 3 creative girls will soon have their own webshop.
To be continued.....

An address I never leave out when we are in Stockholm :
Two exciting materials, glass and clay.
There is always something beautiful to see.

This wall at home needs some new plaster and paint, or does it really?
Couldn't help wondering what Ana Ventura should make of it.
All her works are pure beauty in all their simplicity.

Was rummaging a bit in my box with cards and found this Easter motive again.
Small handmade keepsake-box with Easter chickens
+ vintage first baby smock.
You find it under Fialotta-things ,

and by the way, did you know that there is a sort of candy that becomes transparent if you lick on it long enough, and then when you look trough it the world is Pink?
Zeno taught me that and he is 6 years, so he should know.

First sunbeam in house,
maybe it might be true then, that it slowly will be spring again anyway...
