Thanks for the link. I think one major improvement would be to clean your room………big time, I am surprised you can find the bed.
Nina
TTFN stands for “Ta, ta for now.” It’s a very old expression, a bit like Toodle Pip which I have NO idea about. You can find out more about the phrase on the following link.

Thank you for the recipes and tips for vegetarians, they all sounded quite delicious in a kind of vegetable sort of way. Oh…I guess that is the point.
Petra
Yes, we will actually be at Formex in August. August 12th to be exact. Keep an eye out for us. I am the tall good looking English one and T is Swedish.
Joakim
Thank you very much for your kind words.

I think we might be getting too old to take all the horrors that we see in people’s homes. One more damned vitrinskåp or troll and I will have a heart attack.
Paula
Thank you, T and I are glad you like our work.
Lena
We use a good primer and quality paint on furu. Make sure you clean it thoroughly as well. Personally though I would not go to all the time and expense……..winter is coming and there is nothing nicer than a welcoming fire.
Katarina
Thank you, glad you like the show. To answer your question, I am not a big fan of sill, I would rather eat my small intestine, but I don’t mind a good nubbe.
Ramona
Percy and Pooter are Jack Russells.
Fritt ur hjärtat
How fun. And how great that you encourage your sons creativity. Remember, what he likes now may one day be what he does for a living.
Emil
Glasbrännaren and other “portable” fire places can be purchased through our shop, London W8. You can have a look at the following web site to see the different models available:

Yes, the shop was closed for July but we are open again now but I am having real difficulty in getting back into it, I keep thinking of a large glass of white wine and a good book.
Helena
Tack själv. It was nice to meet you in Linköping. Great pictures of all the work done on your blog.
Bodil
I would go with a rullgardin on your glassed in balcony.
Arena
If you do not have to have a large wallet to create a beautiful home, it does not matter if you buy furniture and accessories at a budget store, an expensive design shop or second hand shop, as long as it reflects you and your personality. Have fun and be creative. However my absolute top tip is to start going to auctions…….that is where I shop.
