It is predicted that in the future more and more people will move to the big cities and that will require a bit of effort from all of us, not least because we have to squeeze ourselves into smaller homes, but also because we have to protect and preserve our environment as intact as possible. It is well known that the more people crowded in a small area (as in a big city), the more damaging it is to our environment.

Living in less space, requires interior and design because it must be less, but more spacious. And now there is a clear trend that paves the way: We clean up, throw out and make room, and we make room for more and more eco-friendly recycling of both furniture and artwork in our homes. Big thumbs up for it!

To clean up and throw out is the big trend, like recycling is also huge. And it’s all about staying smaller and with fewer things and do not signal the same kind of materialism as before the crisis. This is a trend that I love and as I practice in my home in Barcelona, and it is a trend that I hope I will keep with me in my future home decor also.

The respected photographer and former supermodel Helena Christensen was thinking green long before sustainability and environmental awareness became part of a common vocabulary. She mixes charming vintage with green solutions in his country house. Have a look inside Helena Christensens green eco friendly home (photos above).

A LESS HEALTHY SUMMER DRINK

Goodmorning from a awsome sunny day in the North of Denmark:)

This drink above was one of mine and my sisters favorite summer drink when we were young kids. The other day all of a sudden I had remembered this drink and started to crave for it, therefore I made it of course, – and I still love it, especially on a warm and sunny day.

Take a big glass and put in the two following ingredients:

– Ice cream (I prefer vanilla and chocolate ice cream)
– Chocolate Milk

Mix and enjoy!

Meeting the Easter Bunny

Easter Bunny

Goodmorning from Denmark, – I hope you all are enjoying Easter, I am 🙂

Who does not love the Easter Bunny? – I do for sure, and I just want to share this cute Easter Bunny poem with you, – the poem is called: *Meeting the Easter Bunny.

On Easter morn at early dawn
before the cocks were crowing
I met a bob-tail bunnykin
and asked where he was going.
“Tis in the house and out the house
a-tispy, tipsy-toeing,
Tis round the house and ’bout the house
a-lightly I am going.”
“But what is that of every hue
you carry in your basket?”
“Tis eggs of gold and eggs of blue;
I wonder that you ask it.
“Tis chocolate eggs and bonbon eggs
and eggs of red and gray,
For every child in every house
on bonny Easter day.”
He perked his ears and winked his eye
and twitched his little nose;
He shook his tail — what tail he had —
and stood up on his toes.
“I must be gone before the sun;
the east is growing gray;
Tis almost time for bells to chime.” —
So he hippety-hopped away.

P.S. I hope you all will receive a lot of Easter eggs this Easter, – I all ready got a cute Easter egg from J, and that’s without even doing me the effort of writing him a “teaser letter” ♥

Easter table decor inspiration

Easter ny Easter1

Good morning, today I am going on a 10 day holiday, back home to Denmark, to celebrate Easter with my family (Unfortunately this holiday I will be without my love J because he can´t travel this Easter because of his busy work schedule, sniff and snuffling).

Well – I love Easter, I love my family (mucho), and I love all the good Easter food, – especially my mom´s famous lamb dish and then of course all the Easter chocolate eggs with marzipan inside, yummm!

Do you, like me, also love Easter and all it’s traditions? And are you perhaps going to be the host of an Easter lunch this year? – and do you need some inspiration on how to set your table in an pastel – spring – sprouting Easter spirit? If yes, then here above I’ll show you a few Easter table decor inspirational pictures.

Happy Easter 🙂
