Mindful spooncarving at the Danish coastline
Mindful spooncarving in a lovely Danish cottage at the coast. Hygge and slow living!
What's better than taking a few days off with your lovely wife and kids, to a beautifully located cottage at the sea?
Yeah, you're absolutely right.. Green woodworking, slöjd, carving a spoon at that place.
I brought my carving kit and a few roughed out spoon in maple. Carved this while the kids were out playing in the garden. Inside, in front of the woodstove.. It was really cold outside so this was just the best mindful thing I could think of. Honey for the soul!
The last months have been tough, because of lockdowns and all that. So we took a few days at the coast, at Sjællands Odde. Try google it and see for yourself..
