what can I say?
Skansen is one of the most photogenic places I have been lately
I just couldn't stop taking pictures
and I cannot stop making combinations of them
so here is a little selection... haha
welcome to Skansen, Djurgarden Stockholm
step back in time ~ look how the volunteers are dressed
all buildings in this outdoor museum were carefully broken down somewhere in Sweden and rebuilt here
inside you will find handcrafts of all sorts
all practiced while you watch and ask them questions
of course some wool and fabric crafts too
amazingly beautiful wallpapers all handpainted of course... sigh
beautiful flowers inside and outside ~ basically everywhere
when you get to Stockholm, you will be surprised about the amount of children you see everywhere
so it is no surprise you see them in Skansen too, as well as their lost ~and found~ pacifiers
oh and I almost forgot to mention that in Skansen you will see all wildlife that lives in Sweden
so this is not a cat ~ smile
I hope you are enjoying this city tour with me
there are some shopping pictures left for a next post...
love
Lovely photos! I've been in Stockholm many times for business purposes and I never had the chance to visit Skansen. Now I see what I've missed!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying this tour!
Weer een argument om Kopenhagen een keer voor Stockholm en omgeving te verruilen. Mooie foto´s hoor!
ReplyDeleteMy dream destination! You took such great photos!
ReplyDeleteWat een mooie plekje! Leuk om zo met je mee te kijken.

Ben laatst in het openlucht museum in Enkhuizen geweest, daar doet het me aan denken, en ik heb toen ook heeeeeeeeeeeel veel foto´s gemaakt!
Groetjes, Chrissie

Again! I got to take my kids to SKansen this summer. HAven't been there in years. My Mom called me Saturday to let me know my brother was getting married. Saturday! AT SKansen. Tehy have a drop in marriage place. They took a number and stood in line to make their vowels and sign the papers. Later tehre will be a big party. Ohh my. This weekend is so full of emotions. Happy, sad, excited, overwhelmed, thrilled, amuzed... You name it. ANother wonderful picture potpurri of yours. Makes me sigh as it is so breathtakingly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I am happy to hear you found my shell stitch blanket! It is a great pattern and you will love the smooth motion of making a blanket like that. :D And thanks for comforting words about the puppies... No other solutions than finding new homes though. It is heartbreaking but now I am going outside to play with them as we still got them around for a little bit longer. I just don't understand my landlord. How can she say blank no to these? It just doesn't make sense...
love the photo's, especially the flowers inside and out...your combinations are great! lovely to see the sun, it is so cold down here in the southern most tip of Africa at the moment....
ReplyDeleteAmazing photos and a lovely place. I've been in Stockholm many years ago but the countryside is another thing..
ReplyDeleteMy mom come from Oslo so I love Scandinavian country and way of life!
Lovely blog!

Hoi Maaike,
ReplyDeleteWauw, wat mooi allemaal! Ik zou heel graag met mijn jongens (48, 13 en 8) eens naar Stockholm gaan maar heb daar tot nu toe altijd wat tegenop gezien. Maar als ik dit zo zie ... geweldig! Tips zijn dus zeer welkom!
