Our SWEDISH STYLE DINING ROOM MAKEOVER begins - all because of a MORA CLOCK!

Our SWEDISH STYLE DINING ROOM MAKEOVER begins - all because of a MORA CLOCK! Happy Tuesday, In this video we're finally starting with the makeover of our dining room! It's so exciting because we've been keeping a secret: We bought an antique Mora clock last year - something we wanted to have for such a long time. The Swedish Mora clock helped us decide how we wanted our dining room to be: A colourful Swedish style room with Gustavian furniture. Not only do we love the classic English interior style but we have a huge passion for the Scandinavian style as well. So stay tuned for more! Kirsten & Joerg xx

[@fayputnam1774]

I searched to see if someone had suggested the hot water solution for the chocolate. 😊 I recently made some icing, read that instruction for chocolate. Love the Scandinavian colors.

[@Motherhubbard170]

only add the choc to the hot cream off the stove :)

[@jo-annebotha9609]

And don't overheat the cream. I have found it's safest to heat the cream & chocolate up together and just heat it to a temperature where the chocolate starts to melt. Do not boil the cream.

[@beec9741]

I have had success making this type glaze using a double boiler or simply a bowl sitting over a pan of simmering water not quite touching the bottom of the bowl. Place your ingredients into the top bowl, stirring until it has melted and is incorporated.

Stunning choices! One thing that works for me when painting, is a light sanding of the walls before applying the new paint. And the clock! What a treasure!

[@inglishhomeandgarden8386]

The Mora Clock is wonderful! Being Swedish, of course I cheer for your chosen theme. I would never have dreamt of such a bright yellow wall colour, but it will definitely make for a sunny, cheerful dining experience. ☀️ I love the curtain material. It seems to work well with the tiles. We have similar chairs, and I think it's going to look lovely once it all comes together.

[@CaponeCabin]

Just the medicine I needed, a new video from my favorite KZbin couple 💑. While recovering from a accident , I sure needed your sunny smiles, delicious recipes, always fabulous decorating ideas and of course your delightful smile and Joerg always makes me laugh .... so witty!

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that - I hope it's not serious. Wishing you a speedy recovery and sending much love.xxo

[@goldenineke]

What a glorious colour Kirsten and Joerg. Your dining room will look stunning and be such a happy room to eat in. That’s the beauty of having individual rooms rather than the open plan living so favoured today - you can indulge in seperate schemes to your hearts content. Ineke x

[@francetogo794]

Hi Kirsten, I always enjoy watching your videos from the USA. I love the decor you have chosen for the dining room. I went to the House and Garden website and had a look around. I'm already thinking about incorporating some English decor in my home. By the way, it would be so nice if you and Jeorge can end your videos with byes in German. One YT uber from Sweden ends all of her videos in Swedish. It's so nice to hear different languages from all over the world when you are living in the US. Renee` from Virginia, USA

[@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow]

WOW, What a clock! The decorative painting looks very much like the Pennsylvania Dutch designs we often see on antique furniture here in the states. When I saw Joerg open the can of Yellow paint I said, " Oh, that's much too bright!"....then I looked up at my ceiling and my kitchen cupboards...Mustard Yellow! So, never mind......🙂

Dear Kirsten, I did laugh when you said you don’t like alcohol but you like the taste of Advocaat, because my German Mother was just the same! Thanks for reminding me of my lovely Mum! By the way that cake looks delicious, don’t worry about the topping , my mouth is watering!

[@femalism1715]

Beautiful! I love the paint colour! It will bring out and highlight the details in the clock. I can just picture it! Combined with the lighter furniture and the upholstered chairs, the dining room will be exquisite!!! What are you going to choose for the ceiling light fixture? I've actually made the non-gluten-free version of that cake. If you melt some coconut oil with the chocolate, the glaze turns out perfectly. Thanks Kirsten and Joerg! I'm relieved you're both feeling better and I am so excited to watch your decorating project unfold!

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much! Luckily there are light fixtures in the room so we're not under pressure and can look for something antique. Absolutely, that should work perfectly, we usually use coconut for a chocolate glaze. I wanted to stick to the recipe only to find out it wasn't ideal.

I’m looking forward to seeing the end result. I really appreciate you showing the chocolate coating on the cake as it came out rather than re-doing it so it was ‘perfect’. The cake still looked really delicious.

[@221b-Maker-Street]

You bought the Swedish clock from that antiques barn!! The video that I only watched the other day. All those clocks were such a lovely discovery... I'm a big fan of Gustavian furniture and -my addiction is fed- I'm actively encouraged by my Swedish-but-Honorary-Brit pal Bella - who not only has immaculate taste, but has a second career as in interiors consultant. I know like me, she'd approve of that stunning Scandinavian Stripe fabric. I _love_ those vivid colours of Rosi de Ruig's home. And the sun yellow is a fabulous idea for your dining room - I'm so pleased you're going for something vibrant. I painted the exterior of my old Victorian terrace in a lovely warm yellow and it really looked great on an overcast day. 💛 FYI - your chocolate has just gone a bit granular through overheating - a little too long or too hot. Chocolate is a bit of a delicate flower so I only tend to heat it in a _bain-marie_ - a bowl over a saucepan of water, giving you indirect heat - rather than directly in the saucepan itself. You can control the heat much easier without getting hotspots then. I don't have a microwave, but I know chocolate also melts well in short microwave bursts. I bet you barely noticed it when you tucked in, though... 😋 Looking forward to more Dining Room shenanigans! 🤗💛

When I do a chocolate ganache glaze, I typically heat up the cream, but then take it off the heat and let the chocolate melt into. It makes it smooth and shiny. How odd the recipe had you cook the chocolate. Maybe it was a different type of glaze than I’ve done. Looked yummy anyway.

I'm in love with the dining room design ideas and that color yellow will give you the cheery sunshine feelings every minute of the day. Please consider a design board to put together your paint colors, fabric choices, photos of window treatments, lighting, etc. You could use the foam board which is firmer than poster board but you could see everything together in one place and add and delete as you move through the processes. Photos can come from magazines or online Pinterest examples. It's something we could see your vision applied before it happens and as it changes possibly. I'm so excited for you both in this new endeavor.

This is what we have been waiting for!!!! What beautiful bones this room has. I can't wait to see your amazing fireplace and clock in their newly decorated setting.

I also used to have a buttery-yellow kitchen, which felt suitable and was really 'happy'. But I agree that the richer Chinese yellow is perfect for a dining room. They look a bit scary in the tin, but are amazingly restful on the walls. Can't wait to see it! Was that your local church bells ringing? How lovely! Cake looks fab!

Welcome Back!! So glad you're feeling better. You have been in our prayers for a quick recovery. Oh my, the clock is STUNNING! Your style is absolutely beautiful. I am so excited to see this journey and share it with you guys. I must tell you, I have watched the entire series of Bridgerton and I am at the end of the 4th part in the series Downton Abbey. I have enjoyed seeing things in the movie that I saw in your video tour, and seeing how these amazing places and wonderful times have influenced your personal decorating. Your taste is beyond beautiful and classy, I can't wait to watch this journey unfold. Thank you kindly for letting us tag along. Again, I am so glad your guys are feeling better and back! Many Blessings, your friend from the USA ( I am in love with the Candles on your dining room table. I love the colors. It's hard to find things like that in America, you always have such beautiful candles. My kitchen is yellow, it's a pale yellow but I have to say, you guys made an amazing choice. There is something about yellow in the kitchen/dining room that truly is refreshing, warm, inviting, it just makes me feel happy. Colors truly do make a difference. This room will be such a peaceful comforting room, I'm excited to hear what you think once it's done! Looking good so far.)

Thank you so much! Yes, it's always amazing to see what difference colours make.

You have a great artistic and decorating sense. As a retired designer, may I recommend using a paint primer when using saturated color paint or on older walls. It will cut your cost of paint as well as provide more consistent coverage. I am looking forward to the reveal!🫶

I love your clock and I am so excited about the dining room redo.

I had this color in my dining room too for 15 years… loved it & I still do. The time came for a refresh so we went for a rich deep green- but I will always love your rich bold unapologetic yellow. Your room will be spectacular!

[@KirstenJoerg]

Absolutely LOVE a rich green, I bet it's gorgeous!

That’s a beautiful colour, it will definitely make you smile 😊. I also love your clock. I’m looking forward to seeing the end result, I know it will be wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
