I'm trying to remove peony roots for transplanting. The roots are as thick as tree trunks! Is it ok to axe through them? Suggestions?

For tough weeds I put down a tarp for a year. Tarping works. I tried cardboard, leaves and wood chips and that works for a bit but not forever. Tarping works. I tarp and put mulch so it looks tidy.

A country hutch would look good in your kitchen if you have room. Those wallpapers have an English vibe to them- maybe look in the library for traditional Swedish designs or online. Do invest in real sheepskin ‘Ugg’ boots - I live in them in the winter here where it doesn’t get below 8C. It always astonishes me that people in cold countries get around in socks. The moccasin style is better as you won’t be clomping on the wooden floors. It’s a beautiful cottage and should look amazing. Look at mid sky blue for your front door option too.

Yes, a country hutch would look good in the kitchen, but that´ll probably not be until the "real" renovation in a few years. Uggs, yes I have a pair that I never use. The weather here is so often just wet and dirty, and I don´t want to ruin them. And we never use shoes indoors in Sweden. I quite like my woolen socks :-) I´m sure a blue color would work well on the door as well, but I prefer green on this house. Blue was also on the list to start with, but my heart decided on green.

My experiences with wallpaper are they are expensive and hard to put on and hard to take off especially if you get tired of the design after a couple of years. Find some good warm paints or wood panel a feature wall and decorate with beautiful pictures, photos of family and beautiful curtains. A feature family wall is always lovely.

No logic? 🤔 Yes there is! 😊 You say you're starting with the easiest job. After it's done, it's gone. The next job is now the easiest, you do it, it's gone, and so on. Finally, the last job isn't the monumentally difficult one, it's just the one that's left to do. I noticed this felling trees with a pole saw, one branch at a time. I'm no wallpaper expert but I know that the sunshine through tree branches (through old rolled-glass windows?) makes lovely patterns on very light, subtle-patterned walls. One way to bring the outside inside? If insulation / heating are also on your to-do-list I'd be very interested to see that. In the UK we are coming under some pressure to install heat pumps, no matter the house's suitability, 🥶 whereas you guys have them almost everywhere.
@myswedishcottagegarden10 ай бұрын
Yes, the windows are old and handmade I think :-) The shadows from the tree will definitely make nice shadows in late morning, that´s for sure! We won´t do any major insulation work on the house, the walls aren´t that bad. The windows and door are the worst when it comes to letting the cold in. Probably we should think of replacing those old windows for new energy efficient ones, but I´m not ready for that yet...

What a cute, cozy cottage you have there! I like the wallpaper patterns you chose, but I don't think they would work in your cottage. I would stick with lighter paint colors on walls and ceilings and maybe try some patterns elsewhere on rugs and textiles. If you really, really want to use wallpaper , consider using it inside closets and cupboards, it adds a nice surprise when you open them up. Also, small bathrooms can take a busy wallpaper pattern because you're only in there (usually) for short amounts of time, and it's unexpected to see it there. I love the green on the front door.

Imho - you've got such lovely airy rooms that flow so nicely! Personally I've found that wallpapers with 'busy' patterns tend to make rooms feel & look smaller, so over the years I've played with paints to create wall faux finishes, that expand spacious airy feel. Just my 2 cents with your beautiful home ☺
@myswedishcottagegarden10 ай бұрын

@@myswedishcottagegarden I totally understand, white walls drive me bonkers! There's vids online for wall treatments using only paint, but before yt vids I took fun local course about faux finishes. One option is a color wash - gives texture & depth to walls, but my fav is creating faux linen look, matte base color with lighter semi-gloss color same palette, then dragging comb-like piece vertically thru while wet. I often did lower third of wall solid, then top two thirds in faux finish. That way if I get antsy & want to change up room's feel, I just swap out accent color scheme of accessories, like curtains, cushion, floor rugs, etc. Too I usually pick 2 or 3 fav colors (warm earthy colors like greens, creamy yellows, taupes, plum &/or burgundy accents) & stick to off-white all trim, using same colors thru-out so rooms flow gently with more continuity & don't feel so chopped up. It's much quicker & easier work to just repaint walls than rip off wallpapers. Cheers Hannah 😊

If I was to relocate an established peony, do I still need to trim the roots as you do when dividing?
@myswedishcottagegarden10 ай бұрын
Usually dividing an established peony when relocating it makes it re-establish better. But if you move it during spring time which is not the best idea, i´d probably try to get a big clump with soil and everything. Can sometimes be difficult though.

Så vackert! Det vanligaste rådet vid köp av ny fastighet är att bara göra planer första året och iakta miljön i ett år, både för att se vad som finns i form av växter, men också se tex hur översvämmningar m.m. Blir så att inte växterna ruttnar el torkar bort. Om det är rådjur du vill skydda växterna från så brukar man behöva 1.80 högt staket...
