Most things in our home is bought or made for the house, but I also have a few things from the big world. Both back from my many years in the US, but also from my amazing travels to Uzbekistan and Iran the last few years.This typical American wooden office chair I found on the street when I lived in New York, it was put out for garbage. When I found it was the white, I then spray painted it black. Jeg fandt faktisk også en Eames glasfiber stol på gaden i New York.

On the wall I have collected a little differently, top my tubeteika bought in Uzbekistan, it is a men's hat that folds completely flat together so you can put it in your pocket. I bought two used, and they are so fine embroidered. Underneath a hand-cut pressure pad I bought in Iran, since I am a textile designer I had to buy a. Below just a foil cutting Orø (Called Bugi island by me) where our house is well located and & month a mini birdhouse I've got the housewarming gift of “The small Orø workshop” der laver fine fuglehuse på øen.

Her kan man se broderiet på min tubeteika og lidt fornemme mønsteret i trykklodsen.

I took many photographs in Uzbekistan, people were so sweet and imødekommende.Her men who have all tubeteika on. The hat is used because the sun is very bright. Vores guide sagde at man SKULLE have noget på hovedet eller ville det gå galt.

Uzbekistan is incredibly much crafts. We visited a well-known and award-winning ceramicist where they include. solgte disse små skåle som jeg bruger til salt.

Fish Designs were many in Iran, so I bought two tiles which I use to put hot things on, I am in a good mood when I look at them. I love useful souvenirs, at home, half of our kitchen utensils are brought home from Japan, New York, Spain and Germany

Very functional and durable lunchbox system

I share this and hope that others can get just as much pleasure from the MonBento lunch boxes as we have had for the last 3 years. I know well, not all can be just as lucky as us, that they can get their child/children to make their own packed lunches each morning, but you never know – I've posted some examples in a post here

When my boy (nicknamed BUGI) started in school in 2012, I wanted to start with a special and delicious lunch box “culture”. I know he prefers leftover from the day before for ryebread sandwiches. And when I was in Japan for many years ago I bought a lunchbox in two layers, I even love and often used for food. So I was looking on the net for Japanese Bento boxes, and found the French system MonBento (inspired from japan). Madkassen er rigtig lækker kvalitet og indeholder ikke phthalater.

when it was worn out and I had to buy a new, I found out that the first square model we had was discontinued, and instead had been an oblong model in two layers (that fit much better into the bag), and that I could actually buy them much cheaper in Denmark with Manillo, You can see the lunch boxes here. If you want one of the sold-out colors, try to write to them, de plejer at være meget søde til at tage ting hjem og jeg ved de er i gang med en omlægning.

We have gradually invested in 3 set with 2 layer in each, for my boy has a very good appetite, and usually he has 4 layer with, but sometimes 5 layer. We also like to have an extra layer that is purely for today's dinner, so for us, it is fine to have 3 set. However, I think most can settle for less :). I have sewn a bag for madkassen of a nylon gym bag with DrawString top, and the rubber band is from the old square box. You have to run with as many boxes as us, You should probably sew two of the rubber bands together that comes with a 2 layer lunchbox

Our system is simply, a layer we fill we with leftovers from dinner and put in the refrigerator, the other layers is with fruit and vegetables and small snacks. We make pizza or burgers, I always make a few small pizzas that fits in size or an oblong burger bun. We have not eaten at home, He either get a roll, something crisp bread or something we cook pasta in the morning. He'd much rather have these things, even though he can not heat the food in school (The lunch box works with both microwave and dishwasher).

The lunchbox can be purchased directly from Monbento in France through their hjemmeside. I've even ordered them from France without any problems the first time I bought any. If you prefer to buy them in Denmark, there are also some dealers, just try to Google “monbento lunchboxes”

Here the example of madakke, bestikket passer til låget af madkassen.

Since 1. class, he has even stood for all fruit and vegetable layers, He stands up even at 6.15 and begin, and break open to wash and carve and make it all clear. I think after all his lunches almost are works of art and have posted a lot in the next post. It is also nice easy for us (his parents) for he has almost made it all before we got up. He's very aware of what he eats, and also a little “prissy” If an avocado is the wrong color, or wind ruerne not quite hard so he won't eat them, but I think it's good to be aware of what you put in your mouth :).

After a summer of our old-smelling home “Pap Castle” I would really like to start drawing the new house….så jeg kastede mig ret hurtigt ind i opgaven med at finde og tegne det nye sommerhus.

I started with some research and made inspiration boards to identify what was important. Sådan starter jeg faktisk for det meste når jeg laver designopgaver.

I highly recommend the approach because it gives inspiration, men faktisk også udelukker ting når man finder noget man ikke bryder sig om.

Downstairs the cottage we bought, som hurtigt fik navnet Château du Pap da det virkelig var skrammel.
