Went to my sweet sisters concert the other night. People say we look alike and that sure is a compliment! Very musical talented she played dreamy fairytale like music that make me very inspired. One day we will make a puppet theater together ... any year now... until then please visit Ewa Wikström. Enjoy.

Bronze in Stockholm







On top is a sculpture of an old favourite actress, Margareta Krook and what´s wonderful is that the sculpture is always 37°. This means that you can warm your hands on her body on cold winter days. Beautiful. So many people has been touching her, she has become all shiny!

Ingela P


My boy got these superpretty creatures for Christmas. The animals are actually a Babuschka - like one of those russian dolls where you can put one inside the other. Anyhow, they are designed by a favourite illustrator Ingela P Arrenius.  See and weep.

Sam stone





The other day I was taking down a beautiful felted piece by Tina Calén. We have exposed it for some time in the garden where I work and it´s been lovely seeing people circle around it to figure out what it says ... the final words are "It´s amazing what curiousity can make people do". 

Anyway, as I was taking it down I discovered a little stone at the foot of the pillar. A mini stone that said Sam. On the backside a web address was found and when I entered I realized that this was no ordinary stone. Sam was killed in an accident some years ago and to remember him and spread love his parents started creating these stones and handing them out or just placing the stones wherever. If you find a Samstone, pause and think of the love that secretly has been passed on to you. You can keep the stone, give it to someone who you think need it or just place it somewhere for someone else to be found. I feel blessed having found this stone as I realized just three stones has been noticed in Sweden. 

What a beautiful idea - people are great.
