Before/ after of my terrace just outside the living room. It has truly become an extension of my home ♥️
With UV roof in place, it’s now a space we use all the time, whether it’s for slow mornings, sunny afternoons, or cozy evenings ♥️

I found an old outdoor fireplace on .no last autumn and gave it a second life 🪵🔥
We assembled it back then, and this year we rebuilt and secured it properly. Now it’s finally ready to be tested 🤍

Last year I bought five large ceramic pots on sale (70% off) and wondering what to plant in them … shrubs, rhododendrons, ivy…

Then my neighbor gave me the best idea ever. something green all summer, coming back every year, beautiful, and they give you food 🤗 So I planted strawberries 🍓

Now they’re blooming, and I’ve learned you should pinch off the first flowers so the plant focuses on strong roots and gives more berries later.

Simple idea, perfect choice 🍓🌿

Here are some sketches of how I’d like to add dark brown details to the houses (much darker than in the images). Do you like this direction? yes or no?”

My old timber house from 1910 has gone through many transformations over the years. I finally feel like it’s come together the last five years in a way I truly love, clean, black, and timeless.

But I’m now planning the next step: softening the look with dark brown details to add warmth and depth. I feel nervous, but I have to try 🫣

🌱🪴The planting season is here, but nothing has been planted out just yet. I am now waiting for the the night frost to pass, and looking forward to getting everything into the greenhouse and raised beds as soon as the conditions are right 🥕🍅🥒🍆🌶️🫑🧅🍠
