Finally, the World is waking up to the reality of climate change, and we are also realizing that the change starts with us – more importantly, our children. The Tweentown girls had a long chat about what they thought we could do to minimize waste at Christmas: 1. Give people gifts that are homemade, or even I.O.U’s like helping to cook dinner, doing the washing up, folding clothes, etc. Homemade gifts are always… Keep Reading
Everybody knows a bully A bully is someone who picks on other kids. Someone who thinks it is funny to make others sad, someone who excludes specific others. But a bully is also the person who joins in. Or the person who calls names because someone else did it first, or maybe also the person who does nothing to prevent the others from picking on someone. Bullying affects peoples lives…. Keep Reading
For many years I have been driving past a hole in an old brick wall on the Northcoast of Denmark. Being a curious soul like I am, I always wondered what I’d find behind the hole and how many stories one could tell about the hole in the wall. I always dreamt about shooting an editorial there, and that is exactly what we did on a windy Autumn day. We… Keep Reading
If you ever visit the Nordic countries, you’ll come across liquorice in some form pretty rapidly. We just love the stuff, and I admit I have been a huge fan of salty liquorice since I was a child. But it is a bit like Marmite, coriander, blue cheese, and brussel sprouts – either you love it – or you simply hate the stuff. But the last 10 years has seen… Keep Reading
Some of you have recently asked me how I manage to pack so much ‘fun stuff’ into a busy week, where jobs, homework, parenting, cooking, cleaning – and all of the mediocre, daily tasks, tend to take over. This is where I am probably a bit of an odd cat myself! You see, someone once described me as a playful child and I took it as the greatest compliment ever. I… Keep Reading
I like a good party. I also like planning parties, so when my Holly turned 10, I wanted to make sure the party she had was somewhat spectacular. As you guys know, I have always loved flowers, and have always made floral arrangements, bouquets with my Grandmother. Some of you might remember the features I had in the SIMPLY HYGGE magazines with my Grandmother. So why not make a creative floral… Keep Reading
So I have been absent – for one reason or another but the bottom line is I haven’t been around much. Well, I am now. I have had my fingers in so many pies (pardon me) that my head has been frantically spinning. I have created TWEENTOWN, my newest adventure for tweens and their adults, and the reception of the magazine has been fantastic. So I am keeping it up,… Keep Reading

Your kid is bound to know something about Social media by now, – some may even have a smartphone or a social media profile like Snapchat, Twitter, Musically or Instagram. The children of today are growing up having to deal with the pressure of living a Social Media life where sharing what you do, eat, travel,… Keep Reading
Some of you know I have been dabbling with creating an online Universe focusing on TWEENS and their adults. Being a tween is a challenging age and children today grow up a lot faster than we used to. They have information and inspiration readily available and have to constantly deal with the pressures of living an online life. We have been working hard and now have the first real TWEENTOWN magazine… Keep Reading
When Easter approaches, I always try and make some cute Easter pictures to use for Social media or even as cute little postcards. When I am out and about I always keep my eyes open for sweet things I can use – now or for future photography projects. I have a growing prop collection, and they are currently stored under the bed, but if I keep buying stuff I’ll need… Keep Reading
I have been looking for new ideas to make our own Easter eggs for decoration – something we do every year. The girls are getting bigger, and we were looking for a more ‘grown-up’ version to try. It seems that marbled eggs have been a popular choice on Pinterest this year, and after realising just how easy they are to make, we opted for those. We had a good old chat about colours and… Keep Reading
