Packing and Purchasing
Thank you everybody, for all your support!
It means soooo much to me, that I have this world - Blogland - and I can't stress this enough: It really helps me through this time in my life!
I have started to pack up my stuff. I started in my craft room and the attic. Phew....I sure have a lot of stuff.
I have also started to purchase some of the things, that I will need in our new place. Like towels and the likes on the above photo. The tea towels are from our trip to Sweden. I got them in Åhléns and they are muchos pretty. I need some more of them! I also got some of the fab fabrics below, that I've been yearning for, ever I since I laid my eyes on them the first time. They were actually the first thing I saw, when I stepped into the streets of Jönsköping! (From iems.)
Don't you just looove the part with Elisabeth's name? I totally freaked out, when I saw it! Oh, and by the way - she has opened an etsy shop, where you can buy her gorgeous print!








ooooh - nice fabrics! :-)
and some strössel fabric - lovely...
I bought the tea towel on the right when I was at Åhléns and now I wish I had bought more of them...
good luck packing up + moving

Jeg kender denne form for pakkeri alt alt for godt... den er slet ikke magen til den slags pakkeri der er når en hel familie forventningsfuldt skal et nyt sted hen.
Den der pakning er fyldt med en blanding af forventning, frygt, glæde, spænding, uvished og usikkerhed.
Sådan var det for mig.... men hold da op hvor var det godt jeg gjorde det!!!
Jeg håber du snart kan slappe af og sige det samme :) Knus

Hi Kristina!!! I am glad that you are doing ok at this time - and that the craft room has been packed carefully!! The new teatowels are great! I went to Ahlens when I was in Stockholm and bought the best pants ever!! (Not what I would usually shout about but they are so great!!) I also loved all the fabrics that they had too!!

I am so glad to hear you are doing so good. I LOVE all your tea towels and fabrics and how exciting to be moving to a new place. It's always nice to start over and decorate again.
You are a very strong person and I really admire you very much. xoxox

Lovely teatowels, and fabric too!
I just sent you mail, no hurry replying, but I've got some snail-mail for you, so I need your address. :) Nothing special though.

Kristina, det gør mig ondt at læse om opbrudet, men du virker ret afklaret og så er det jo nok det bedste skridt at ta'.
Jeg er da helt vild med dine svenske indkøb, stoffet med elefanterne det er vildt fint, gad vide om man kan købe noget sådan online?
