Joyeuses fêtes mes chers amis, see you in the new year! xo

beautiful cover, beautiful title and subtitle. from joining the Peace Corps almost 50 years ago and decades onward, suddenly you’ve said what I’ve been trying to do but couldn’t name. Thank you. Many ask me how to be happy in “old age” , hmrph. I think the key is to be happy in your “young age”, i.e. take risks, let go, create and appreciate your home wherever you are…..and I’d add: really be where you are…stop listening to music from home on ipod, texting friends “from home”. Be where you are.
p.s this is just the right amount of snow for a Florida Christmas !

I found your blog through Janet Blyberg. I hope you find the time and energy to continue with it soon, as it is fabulous. I limit my blog to three posts per week, that seems to work and prevents it from becoming a burden. I love your ‘eye’, the handmade, wabi-type aesthetic.
December 25th, 2010 | #
I don’t know why I was pondering this the other day but I was. Congratulations. It looks like it’s come together beautifully.
December 25th, 2010 | #
oh its quite perfect!!! & your presents sound divine, especially the quilting fabric!!! loveliest thoughts
December 25th, 2010 | #
merry xmas pia, hope you have a lovely xmas and time to finally relax. sounds like you have been as busy as glenn and I .. we joked a few months ago that our next day off would be xmas day and it has worked out exactly like that! but it’s lovely & snowy & sunny here in devon today and so we are off for a little walk to the beach.
we have really enjoyed your blog this year and are looking forward to buying the new book when it comes out.
merry xmas

Congratulations and Best wishes, Pia!
I arrived in Amsterdam 2 weeks ago. I bought my greeting cards at Typique. Thanks for sharing your great ideas.

Dear Pia
How beautiful! I didn’t realise how much we have in common – a restless spirit, appreciation for a certain beauty, a loathing of mass consumerism – and a book coming out early next year! Yours in April, mine in May!
If you’re coming downunder soon, please let me know so we can meet up perhaps.
A late Merry C and an early HNY Pia.

Your newest book speaks to all of us wanderers at first glance – and we know it’s going to be perfect in every way. Can’t wait to have my very own copy! Thanks for sharing this first peek, dear Pia, and do enjoy your Christmas holiday in France with Romain’s family…who must love you as much as he does…and almost as much as your blog followers!

I’m looking forward to it. Paris, Made by Hand lives by my bedside. I love it, and it’s a constant source of inspiration. I’m always interested in and distracted by ideas of home, place, what it means to feel at home (or not feel at home), especially when moving around and being torn between wanting to feel settled and also free at the same time. My heart wanders to these thoughts 🙂 PS. I’ll be going to Amsterdam for my first visit this May, and we’ll stay on a houseboat, and I can’t wait.
December 30th, 2010 | #

January 5th, 2011 | #
this looks very exciting pia – when do we get to look inside?? your blog is one of the very few i have read from start to end when i discovered it. i think this might be a book to buy (and i seldom buy books because i’ve got too many).
good luck with your work – i understand from what you write that you’re very busy, so remember to take care of yourself.

I just discovered you blog & loved it. I’m an interior designer from Melbourne, Australia & I found it very inspiring. Blogging is all new to me but I have just set up my own blog
scrapbook-melissah.blogspot.com
You may like to check it out because I had so much fun doing it. It’s got a bit of everything fashion, interiors, food, travel spots – hopefully you will find something in there that you like.
Thanks for providing me with such great entertainment!
Cheers

What a coincidence…I was just talking with my friend about our homes and how we don’t make them 100% our home since we never know when we will move again….I have lived away from Stockholm the last 18 years approx some here some there. And we also said that we will most likely never feel 100% at home if we never make a home out of our house. So….I would love to read your book!
January 12th, 2011 | #
How thrilling! The cover is simply stunning. I’m excited!!!!
January 13th, 2011 | #
Beautiful cover, and that title took my breath away for a second! I got your book ‘Amsterdam: Made by hand’ as a christmas present and I fell in love with your descriptions and the words you choose.
January 15th, 2011 | #
