Hello from Mississippi USA 🌿 I’m 61 and retired and almost finished with my 3 month journey of Swedish Death Cleaning. I’m excited to be so close to being finished. I’ve thrown away 22 kitchen garbage bags full of items that were mindlessly accumulated. I feel mentally clean! I told our adult daughters that this is my gift to them. The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning book propelled me into action. When I needed encouragement I watched your videos. Observing your efficient method of maintaining a clutter free home motivated me. The items that remain in our home serve a purpose with my homemaking tasks, encourage hygge, or are heirlooms for our daughters. I appreciate your dedication to providing useful, enjoyable, and beautiful content. Today is for rest and relaxation. I’m in my flannel gown with candles lit and relaxing albums playing. I saw you uploaded a video and was so happy. I made a cup of tea and settled in for another wonderful video. Thank you so much, Benita. Warm regards, Beth

[@BenitaLarsson]

I’m so happy if my videos were helpful in your decluttering journey! And isn’t that book the best? I love Margareta!

Ciao, Barbara dall'Italia. Ho 53 anni e 3 figli ormai adulti, sono anche nonna...ho fatto il tuo stesso percorso lo scorso anno e ne sono felice. Sono così leggera e ho imparato ad apprezzare le piccole cose. Ho creato una scatola di ricordi per ogni figlio, sono ricordi di quando erano piccoli. Tutto il resto potranno eliminarlo. Ora ho meno cose e poi tempo per me stessa, mio marito, le candele e i miei hobby.

[@LiveGently]

Wow, Beth. Swedish Death Cleaning...going to google it now... OK, I love this. Also, what a wonderful gift to yourself, not just your daughters. I'm sure you feel amazing and lighter. Best wishes to you from me in Northern California. - Esterina

@ Thanks! It has changed my life for the better.

[@spirituallysafe]

Are you really ready for death? Jesus said “I am the way, the truth and the life; no-one comes to the Father except through Me (John 14:6). Jesus wants you to to cast all your cares on Him because He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). Only by repenting of sin and trusting in Jesus to guide your life are you spiritually safe for all eternity. I encourage you to prayerfully read The Holy Bible ❤

That's nifty how you recycled old sweaters into new cushion covers. They both added an attractive color and texture to your Winter decor. I loved all of the other various textures you used, ambient lighting throughout your home. What a clever idea of using an old coffee tin and a toilet roll for Kleenex!

I have also hand stitched one end of a pillow covering or basted it shut. It looks quite smooth and nice that way too I have found. I have significant zipper trauma, it usually doesn't end well, so this is my alternative. I wish I could sew as well as you. My mother did.

The Tissue Box is very nice!👏 As I have allergies, I use real paper tissues instead of toilet paper, but if it wasn't the case I surely would have made this box following your instructions!😌

Thank you so much!

[@williamclark1244]

I love the term Nestive. It fits. Also the pillow and tissue holder are great craft ideas. I wish I'd known about using a knit sweater as a pillow covering. I just decluttered an old one that was one of my favorites but has a hole in an area that would've been difficult to mend.

Hi Benita. To keep January cheerful, I’ve been trying a few things this year (adding to previous years): spot as many different nature colours as possible; candles; home spa evenings; celebrate Epiphany, Burns Night & lunar New Year (I teach mostly East Asian students); read more; 15/30min power declutter sessions; “chic” days; get out of my hermit shell & socialise a bit more (eg. meet a friend for a seaside walk); family film evenings; early bedtimes; gentle exercise (after a year of inactivity due to ill health - building back up slowly); cosy cushions & throws; feeding & documenting the garden birds; enjoy TV/YT on my terms/to suit my own timing, …

[@manishaholm]

If your straight stitch is the tiniest of zigzagz, the seam will have a bit of stretch in, better adapting to the stretchiness of the knit.

[@BenitaLarsson]

Yes, I use this for jersey sometimes!

[@dsims868]

Benita, first time to your channel. Great tips! I too enjoy cozy lighting and bringing nature inside (love the branch in vase). Will use your idea of sweater pillows! Was thinking about the sleeves of the sweater ...you could use one for your tissue container to as you suggested add texture and coziness to the glossy surface and you get multi benefits from the sweater. May be no sew just slide the sleeve over the can. I did over a pickle jar to hold my crochet hooks in. Look forward to checking out your other videos! ☕🫖🕯️🌨️🪩

[@BenitaLarsson]

Using the sleeves is a great idea! They already went to textile recycling but I'll remember it for another time!

[@smgreenartsprivate]

Great tips Benita I will have a think how Nestive will work for me. I love the jumper pillows I might do that just have to think how will implement the lights with my inquisitive furry pal. I will have to check around where I can get that pastry :) I don't have any frames on my artwork but some on some others I change them out. I love the rabbit and the disco ball. Thanks Benita :) will have a think about deliberate meditation exercises.

[@amsteensberg1653]

Great idea with the sweater- pillows 🌟🌟🌟 now I know what to do with sweaters that had a too hot wash 🙈 ...still a bit concerned about the unravelling ....Would it make sense to put the pillow inside the sweater , outline the pillow on the sweater and zigzag the outline , so the two layers are connected/ zigzagged before you cut off he superflous parts ?

[@BenitaLarsson]

You can if you think it’s necessary!

[@sherri.]

I love your sweater pillow covers. Such a great idea. I actually made a tissue holder yesterday with a coffee tin! I wrapped mine with a fancy decorative wrapping paper. I just need to paint the lid white to finish it. 😊

Living in Montreal 🇨🇦, I always have pinecones, winter greenery, candles and little lights strings in my decor during wintertime. For me, it is important and fun that my apartment reflects each season ☘️🌞🍂☃️!

[@BenitaLarsson]

I completely agree with you!

[@bluesky1028-w8d]

Hello from Ontario! I agree; I love having the inside reflect what we see out of our windows. My walls & furniture are very neutral so I have lots of leeway. I kept the bright reds/oranges out of my autumn décor this past year and went with copper/soft white/deep muddy brown, & touches of verdigris. I transitioned into Christmas with the same colours, using more natural tree decorations including hanging cones (brushed with a bit of white on the undersides) and some small $store balls that I painted metallic copper/bronze and also warm white. Come January it was easy to continue with the colour theme, just using a bit less copper. Might do the same next year, although every few years I do feel the need to accent with the more brilliant autumn colours and have a more traditional red/white/gold Christmas theme.

[@JM-im6ep]

@ Same here, for the autumn, I stay away from vivid orange or orange pumpkin. I prefer decorative squash and my colors are a mix of dark yellow, muted green, brown and cream for my small elements of decor and cushion covers.

I must say that your plant in the kitchen (gullrankan) seem to thrive there, I remember when you brought it home and the stems didn't have any leafs.

Thanks for sharing some warm and cozy Idas with us. I am on board with the ambient lighting and the textures. May we all get through the darkness of these winter days!

Thanks so much for watching the video!

Thank you for sharing new video, not sure about the DIY painted tin with plastic cover 🤔 but everything else in your house looks so organic. I love all the home decor, homeware pieces, and interior style🙂! Other than that, I enjoyed every shot of the video 🤍. Best, Rita.

How do you Scandinavians prevent or/and treat a cold/the flu?

[@BenitaLarsson]

I personally got a flu shot this year. That doesn’t prevent me from getting a cold but I won’t get as ill.

Милая Бенита! Такое уютное и полезное видео, спасибо❤У нас в Санкт-Петербурге тоже так мало солнца сейчас, ждём весну😊

[@BenitaLarsson]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

I was thinking there's no way that Benita will put the coffee tin just like that on the coffee table... and voila! Out comes the white paint 😂 love this idea and also the mirror idea 💛 we are in the heat of summer atm, but I'll be using your tips this coming winter. While we have lots of winter sun, my home is also dark during winter, because it is built to stay cool during the constant 36°C in summer. Come winter, the nice cool interior is not so much fun.

Enjoy your summer, I long for spring!

I love your sweater pillow idea! Also love your hanging fairy lights from the curtain rod, copied the idea after Xmas, and am very pleased. 😊

[@BenitaLarsson]

So happy you found some ideas to try!

Dear Benita , greetings from Chicago! You are an inspiration . Please let us know the brand of your light grey rag we are seeing every time you nicely walk on. Please ! Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi what a lovely video as always. There are some great tips. I still have my lights up on my window sill. I bring a lovely warm glow dark early mornings. 🌿

Hi Benita. Another great cosy video 💖 I love the hamper in the kitchen. Where is is from? Is it for dirty laundry? Thanks!

[@BenitaLarsson]

I have one my living room under the painting of the girl, is that the one you mean? It’s for dirty laundry. Might seem lika an odd spot for it but it works for me😅

[@HelenSch]

That’s the one. Do you remember where you got it? I’ve been looking for something similar for sometime. Something like that can be put anywhere, even if it’s just for dirty laundry 😅 thanks again.
