Hi Rosie, I love to watch your videos. I am 83, an artist and I love to see your redo your home. I wish I was young again so I could do that again. I like the color of the windows. You are a decorator, and it shows. Make sure you truly enjoy this journey because you will never have the same journey again. This journey is a treasure for you to put in your memory so you can pull it out and enjoy it over and over again. When we are young, we sometime don't take the time to realize that the paths of our lives are crooked, hard, windy, and exhausting but when we look back at what we have accomplished we feel a joy that can't be duplicated any other way. Smile, laugh, rejoice and know that your path is a good one.
I love the Terra cotta window trim. I believe when the snow falls and the beautiful blue sky on a sunny day shines through, you will find your color choice will be absolutely perfect.
Hi Rosie, im from nova scotia canada and have been watching your show for awhile. I am in awe watching you fix your little house up and i gotta say you are a wonder. Who needs men when women can do things themselves. I have been living by myself for about 15 years and do everything from taking my house apart to digging up the sewer. But to see another woman taking on that lot is so rewarding. Keep up the good work, you are amazing
I'm happy that we, women, can take projects on, but to say, "who needs men", or women for that matter does a gross unjustment to either gender one thumbs their nose at. No one is an island into themselves. We need each other, and in spite of living without a spouse, I love and appreciate the platonic men in my life, and may still find that one of them becomes my later in life mate 😊. In the meantime... I'll chug chug along on the other side of Canada. Enjoy your day, Maxine 😉
It’s cinnamon darling, just live with it and see how you feel. It’s one of those colors that can be very stodgy 70s, but maybe it needs a chance. I love the scandi use of red and this is sort of a toned down version. I’m in Spain and the quality of light in your videos is so different, milky and ethereal. Good luck with your upcoming projects 🙏🤞☺️
Changing the color went from air to earth. It feels warmer to me, solid and embracing, like being held by mother earth. Your pie looks delicious. I would have liked to see you take a bite so I could taste it vicariously.
In sweden, the windows are called "innanfönster", that would in english be "inner windows". In a store it was normal that you could by paper strips with water soluble glue on "fönsterremsa" (singularis), these strips you would tear off in a suitable lengt, pull it through some some some some water on a plate and glue over the crack between the window and the windowsill. That would take away most of the draft that come from these cracks wenever there is windy, this draft pull away a lot of wamth from your home in cold weather. When its time to take out the windows we use a wet cloth to make the glue come loose. In autumn time some icastore and coopstores still sell these stripes.
Hi Rosie! Before you go any further and I forget, I just wanted to tell you that, on the USA East Coast, New Jerseyy to be exact, "winter windows" are called "storm windows'. I can well remember how my Mother and four sisters would take down the summer screens (mosquitoes are a plague in summer in N.J)., and put up the heavy, storm windows. We lived in a three story house in Montclair, N.J., and putting up the heavy, wooden framed glass storm windows required balance and strength to hook them on at the top. I don't know how we accomplished it! Nowadays, the screens and storm windows are made of aluminum, or maybe even something lighter. I so admire your hard work! God bless you! Patricia
P.S. We had to hang the windows on the OUTSIDE of the regular glass window, which only slide up halfway. The terra cotta color is unusual but it will darken a bit, I am sure, It does look really nice though! Well done! Patricia
Really like the earthy color-not obtrusive, very natural, softly subtle,but adds just the right touch. I admire your attention to detail and your willingness to just keep at the hundreds of tasks on your “to do” lists with such patience and grace.
I like it. It compliments, rather than overpowers the natural wood color and goes really well with the greens in the plants. Do you like art for the walls? If so, then bringing in the oranges, burnt umber/yellows, and greens in a painting (which I'm sure would include one of your original art pieces) would be lovely.
Thank you! Yes I completely agree. I think art will look amazing on these walls. It's definitely a layer I'd love to add at some point, and bring in more colour as you say! :)
Growing up in Iowa, USA we called the “winter windows” storm windows. Thank you for your video, you give me lots of encouragement that I can do things myself. I enjoy my Saturday mornings with you.
I like the color. It is very close to the color of the terracotta flower pot. It goes very well with the wood. It allows the green in the plants to show well. Well done!
Dear Rosie the color choice for your storm windows is perfect and lovely contrast with your beautiful wood walls. The color will grow on you the more you see it, adds a lovely warmth to the room. My father was a great gardener and as it got closer to colder weather would bring in green tomatoes to ripen on window sills, there are also good recipe or using green tomatoes as well. The Autumn season around your home is stunning. I loved seeing you picking your wild berries and baking such a beautiful pie. You’ve done a great job on your cozy home, it is looking better all the time. Please do not get discouraged or stressed, things get done as they are meant to happen. It will be good for you to do things inside I. The cooler months and also relax and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Love watching your journey. Wishing you a good week ahead and blessings to you from Northern California. ❤
Rosie, I just found your channel today. I have watched probably 10 of your videos already. I will watch them all. You are a very impressive, very intelligent, a very hard working woman. I admire you very much.
I do too, all the way from Cape Town, South Africa. Since I was a child, I have wanted to build my own house. When I was 7 yrs old, I even 'planted' mh own little forest behind a cupboard in my bedroom! I brought in buckets of soil from our garage and dug up pine saplings from a natural forest across the road! No-one stopped me and passers-by didn't seem to mind! Of course, the soil was too shallow and they didn't live for lone. I was incredibly sad..
Me too!!!!!!!! I truly admire her❤ and I can not stop watching her videos since I found her a couple of days ago... No body before has got me so intrigued and interested in her pursue and no body has gave me such pleasure with her doing...
Hi Rosie. I live in Iowa in America. We call the windows “Storm windows”. Very few homes here have them nowadays. They were replaced with Double paned windows. More energy efficient. But I remember how summer time came and they were replaced with the frames with the screens. You always had to have a place to store them in your off season. They were put on the outside of your home. Where as you put yours on the inside. Many people used to use plastic on their windows. A pain to put up and take down. But helped with the drafty windows. :) Your paint looks nice. Take care :)
Hi Rosie! I think the proper word for these windows are "Insättningsfönster" or "Innanfönster". I had those in my room as a child and they would usually be put in somewhere right before the start of Advent. My mom used to decor the gap between the windows like a wintery landscape with fetvadd, small porcelain mushrooms and fir cones. I really like how the paint turned out and I think it will look great with the green on the walls!
My grandfather used to call them "innerfönster"/inner windows. Grandma did also put "fetvadd" ( really flat and smooth pieces of cotton ) between them too, but she also put dried flowers "eternell" on top of the "fetvadd" before closing and taping the window again.
Yes, that's 100% correct. I have such windows myself. The "fetvadd" which is a bit costly but reused every winter, insulates against draft but more importantly minimizes condensation otherwize caused with warm windows meeting cold space inbetween. Decorating these window gaps with the wadfing that looks a bit like cotton os a likeness of snow with little gnomes, red toadstools, pinecones as trees etc is a tradition several hundred years old by now. In summertime some people remove the inner windows from the hinge to have single panes so the window doesnt open both ways. A bit of pity not to wait until springtime and save up for real oilpaint with flaxoil. This is traditionally correct for this period building and for conditioning the wood and further preservation. But requires natural UV light to cure (hardens at 3 weeks, cures fully over 4 months). The oils seep into the dry wood and recondition it and unlike modern paints breathes when dry. Costly paint, but you need a l o t less to go along way. Needs to be painted on in very thin layers, but stunning to feel and look at. Color charts in keeping with this type and period of building are usually called "allmoge", which was the word for the rural farming class of Swedish people back in the day. Companies specializing in paints of historical accuracy and preservational quality without latex or other awful content are for example Gysinge, Ottosons, Ovolin, Kulturhantverkarna, ABC Färgekonomi, and several others. Usually in every region of the country there's at least one or two regional paintsuppliers that make paint of this sort for regional houses, and those geezers usually are a veritable fountian of knowledge and references for all things concerning renos, materials, local pigments and traditions. It's fun to look into even if you make other descisions. All of the traditions involve keeping these wood houses free of mould, mildew, wood worm, breathing and protected against the elements. The red exterior paint is a nation wide tradition called Falu Rödfärg. Its made of local iron vitriol burnt to different shades of red in different parts of the country. The high level iron vitriol protects like nothing else in freezing temperatures, long periods of wet melting frost and breathes in summer. Nothing is accidental really or a case of pure tastes, historically. I've mixed my own oil paints using traditional recepies with natural pigments and that saves on the costs as well and isn't too hard to do. Vapor barriers and breathable finishes are everything in old houses or they start to rot and crack eventually. Black or pink mould in a wood house is a death sentanced to the house (and very dangerous to live with even trace amounts). There's huge amounts of free help, guidance and expertize available all over Sweden and the internet too. Riks Antikvarie Ämbetet (RAÄ) is nationally tax funded and represented in every district (Län). They have local archives of landscapes and records of cottages, have experts, and answer questions, have free references, libraries, and lists of producers of materials to share. From wallpaper to roof tiles and window latches. They also have an extensive homepage on materials for reno, conservation, repair and envorinmentally healthy upkeep and cleaning of historical buildings explaining the ingredients and their function, the origin of the pigments from deep blue, to rich yellows, greens and Gustavian greys inspired by French 18th century architecture. This house may very well have an original foundation or section from the early 18th century, later expanded, altered. It was very common back then. Just sime handy tips and info. The RAÄ is funded by taxes, for the people, to preserve the culture, houses and old agricultural plants for future generations without causing damage to environments. There are also grants to apply for, for those with houses of particular historic value, great or very small.
The terracotta looks great on your storm windows...that's what my folks called them back in the day when I lived in Michigan, US. I so look forward to your videos! They're so beautiful and relaxing.
For your tomatoes... you can pick the green ones and lay it in a warm dark place - the will be red in a fwe days! only the green leaves can metabolize the chloropyll ;)
I just painted my entire dining room and half of my kitchen that color, called Moroccan Sky and I totally love it's warm, cozy appeal...I live in Florida, USA, it gives an Earthy clay pot look and is beautiful when the sun streams in...I love your choice of paint...!
I think it looks very good - without custom blending the color yourself onsite in the same light as where it will be used it's difficult to obtain the color you have in your mind. And any change will be super noticeable at first. I think as the season changes to winter, with less light & brightness and the color of the light outdoors is colder the warmth of the window color may become more appealing to you.
Rosie~ After seeing the windows in place I actually love them! It looks very finished now like they help frame the area outside! Great work! Choosing Joy ~ stephanie
This is my favorite of your videos. I felt anxiety melt out of the pit of my stomach watching the little clips of the nature around your house. I love your points of view and attention to beautiful details. I love your other stuff too but wow, I really loved that. The frost still covering things in the shadows and the warmth of the sun you can almost feel it looking at the trees. Thank you so much
I think the terra-cotta/soft warm orange is life-giving and joyful! It seems a very cheery color to wake up to, and a comforting one in the evening darkness. I say keep it!
I just love watching your videos, so peaceful, i had a stroke years ago cant walk or use my left arm hand. So watching you have relaxes me, you are an amazing person im sure your parents have to be so proud of you
The terracotta on the interior windows draws the eyes to the glass not the color of the trim around the glass. The color is pleasing and not as stark as the white. I think it will emphasize the plants. That pie looked delicious.
Good to take it easy sometimes. No need to do everything in a short time. Most important you have fixed. I dont no if you have firewood. Electricity might bee expensive in winter. You have done enough Rosie. The rest you can take it easy with. 🙂👍🌞
I like the color of the windows. I also like that you have storm windows for the kitchen, sure will help with the heat in the winter. May I suggest, since you're winterizing your place - staple some clear plastic in the window opening of the bathroom. Since there's no glass, it will help keep out the colder air, drafty feeling and mice, will just help to make it feel warmer. Just something that I would do, I hate the cold.
I love what you're doing! The windows are perfect for the season. Yes, maybe, different from what you expected, but different can take us out of our norm and discover new likes. You are very inspiring and I look forward to your next video. I loved the way you went from one task to another, inside, outside, painting, plants, gathering berries, baking, etc. Great video! ❤️
Wow, that's a totally nice color you got for the windows, It gives a lot of coziness and goes so well with your things. I think a lot about your lack of heat and that chimney. You could get good heat in the kitchen and enjoy it so much. Isn't there someone who follows you nearby who could help and get a handle on that chimney because it's not that bad. Praying someone would be able to help you. If I had money I would send one tomorrow that could make your house work with heat. I think it's so hard for you, hate the cold. It's all so beautiful with you, you're very talented.
I love thease earthy colours! A brave choise that turned out really good in the end. It makes me wanna go outside my comfortzone with the colours in my house to! 😅🙏🏼
When I was young we called those storm windows and of course they were installed before winter and removed again in the spring. However I like that you call them winter windows, which of course they are to keep the cold weather out. Love what you’ve done with your house, particularly the kitchen and those painted winter windows really take the kitchen to the next level! 👍 I like it!
I too like the terra cotta color. it warms things up a bit. Your pie looks scrumptious !!! I love your videos. You are so brave to take on what you've done. Keep sharing as so many of us are enjoying these, and inspiring as well. take care.
Thank you Rosie ! Your pie looks so delicious ! I bet it is a lot better with Hot Tea! Just admire you in everything you are doing! Have a great week! God bless you dear!🌼🌼🌼
I'm sorry to hear you've been stressed. Please know I'm thinking of you and hope whatever is worrying you, works out. Lovely video as always! Thanks for enriching my Sunday morning Rosie:)
To prevent the mice to come into my old house I have bought Silverline A-Repellers at the Granngården store. I just plug them into various power outlets and they scare the mice away with ultrasound. I have seen both mice and rats in my garden, but I find no traces of them indoors, so it seems to work.
I have full confidence in your choices since you are an experienced decorator with building skills. Green houses, clothing and remodeling your cottage and bath house. Do be careful in the woods. I don't want any injury to "OUR ROSIE"
BRAVO! The original sky blue was lovely as well! Cheerful and light! Bringing in the warmer color will make your home feel warmer & cozier in the winter. It flows with the wood interior, not decreasing the feel of the room size.
In case you do not already know, green tomatos can be ripened with the opened peels of banana skins laid in their vicinity......you have done a great job with your reno. Your woodworking skills are inspiring. You may find it useful to make a bench outside underneath your porch so you can sit down comfortably to take off your boots to avoid traipsing muddy & snowy boots through your lobby.....
I love the rich terracotta color. It is my main accent color throughout my home, complimenting my cream walls, light woods and 50 green houseplants. My house is decorated cozy-rustic and fall colors prevail throughout the year. Your windows add such warmth to your beautiful kitchen. I agree with Donna, that art on the walls, with terracotta tones will bring a warm cohesiveness the interior design. All in all, everything is looking very beautiful, Rosie! I recently read that the orange based colors increase the serotonin levels in the brain more than any other color. Happy Autumn to you and your subscribers. 🍂
I look forward to every Sunday as you share parts of your life and evolving beautiful little home. As I began watching your video this morning I found myself welling up with tears...the peaceful beauty of it touched me so deeply. I needed it. Thank you. 🥀
Lovely! You might know by now that you can pick all of our tomatoes, even the green ones, and put on a tray and keep in a dark place, or out in the kitchen, and they will turn red during winter. Do not need to have the plants inside...
A tip around the mice, you will never be able to prevent them to get in, not in the pumphouse, not in the house, they can squeeze through a hole the size of a pencil, or make a new hole. Try to give them some place outside of your house to setup, like a pile of wood or something, and set traps there, before they get into the house. I use Swedish kaviar as bait, they seem to like that :D
Deterring mice seems to be tricky, making a little home for them sounds like a cute idea haha! I use linseed oil to catch them - they love it for some reason!
@@wildrosie Regarding mice: consider getting a cat. Getting rid of the mice is just one of the many benefits of having a cat around. It looks like your cabin is in the perfect location for an outdoor cat.
Hi Rosie! Your videos are so meditative. There's nothing I enjoy more than picking berries from nature's bounty and baking something delicious, and you make it look like a sacred ritual. I really like the terracotta color on the storm windows. At one point you were painting right next to a terracotta pot and it completely matched, so I guess it's well-named. Be well!
SINCE YOU LIKE DARK GREEN AND OTHER SHADES OF GREEN, TRY USING THESE GREEN SHADES IN YOUR KITCHEN AS OBJECTS OF DECORATION SUCH AS MIXING BOWLS, TOWELS, A AREA RUG IN FRONT OF YOUR SINK OR EVEN SOME COUNTERTOP CANISTERS OR A CHALK BOARD WITH DARK GREEN PAINTED EDGES FOR EXAMPLE. THIS SMALL TOUCHES OF YOUR FAVORITE COLOR CAN OFF SET THE TERRACOTTA COLOR IF YOU THINK THIS COLOR IS TOO ORANGE. JUST A THOUGHT. YOU DO SUCH A WONDERFUL JOB DECORATING AND THINKING THINGS OUT. THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR VIDEOS WITH ALL OF US. STAY WARM.
Hi Rosie.🌹 Thanks for another great video. The windows turned out great. I would bring in the biggest tomatoes and let them ripen in the kitchen window. Because there is a risk that they will crack, now that it is getting colder outside. Is that a water filter you have on the bench? Pick white moss in the forest and put it between the windows to avoid condensation. That's how we always did in the past. If you put wadding under the moss, it will be even better. You avoid drafts.Take care/Birgitta.🍁🌻🍂The blueberry cake looked so good🫐
I have viewed “Making An Autumnal Cabin Kitchen” several times. You are so creative. Your joinery is beautiful. I am in Dallas, Texas USA and have recently retired and looking forward to doing some gardening and my own DIYing. Thank you for the inspiration.
White color painted windows make small kitchen brighter & appear more spacious. The cheerful spring & summer colors matches perfectly with natural wood interior & the red exterior ! The pastel nude makes the kitchen appears boring & flat !
It looks lovely. In the United States we call them storm windows. It is going to freeze here this week and we brought all of out green tomatoes in and wrapped them in paper; they will slowly ripe. We also made fried green tomatoes and green tomato salsa.
Storm windows! Yes I've heard that term too. Wrapping tomatoes in paper sounds like a good idea. I'm not sure what to do with mine, they're still inside!
@@wildrosie They won't grow any longer on the plants by bringing them inside, the vines will just die. Might as well pick the tomatoes and throw the plants out. You will get fresh tomatoes for a month as they slowly ripen.
I have been watching your channel since the beginning. You, your beautiful home and your videos have come such a long way! You should be sooooo proud! ✌️❤️😁🤙
That pie looks SO good, Rosie. You know, if you ever need to call in reinforcements, you can just bribe us with pie. We'll jump in the car whenever you need 😍
MY DEAR ROSIE THIS SUMMER I PAINTED THE WALLS OF MY KITCHEN WITH THE COLOUR YOU MADE THE WINDOWS . I ALSO FOUND TILES FOR THE KITCHEN IN THE SAME COLOUR . SO JUST THINK THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE MORE MORE EXTREME THAN YOU . ❤
Very beautiful autumn impressions ! I love the atmosphere of brightness and cosiness in your kitchen , it's so well done. I 'm sure you enjoy being in that room . 💛🧡💚
I have to say that kitchen looks amazing!!!! Even the terra cotta paint looks good. Sit with it for some time and decide if it’s right for you. I like it.
Hello, Rosie. I think the Terracotta looks nice. If I understood correctly, you're painting the walls sage? So I think the Terracotta against the sage will give it a different tone. I think it will look very charming and inviting. That pie!!! Mmmm.🍂💕

The color of the paint is quite lovely. It will be so cozy with candlelight on a dark winter evening. ☺️👍🏼
I love the color on the windows. It's warm, cozy and comfortable and reminds me of my grandpa's house back in the 50's. Embrace it!
I simply adore your videos and look forward to them each Sunday. You are so brave and your love of nature is inspiring. Thank you ❤️

That's what we call them in Canada as well.
I thought storm windows were like shutters. Where I live (Australia) we don't have these here.
Where I live in Canada on the east coast we call them double sashes or storm windows.
We would switch out the "winter windows" for screens in the summer. We called them "storms" and "screens" (Chicago, USA).
@@beaulieufamily5059 And generally they were on the outside of the window rather than the inside.
I like the color. It is very close to the color of the terracotta flower pot. It goes very well with the wood. It allows the green in the plants to show well. Well done!
The colour looks very different in different light, but I do like it too!

Decorating these window gaps with the wadfing that looks a bit like cotton os a likeness of snow with little gnomes, red toadstools, pinecones as trees etc is a tradition several hundred years old by now. In summertime some people remove the inner windows from the hinge to have single panes so the window doesnt open both ways.
A bit of pity not to wait until springtime and save up for real oilpaint with flaxoil. This is traditionally correct for this period building and for conditioning the wood and further preservation. But requires natural UV light to cure (hardens at 3 weeks, cures fully over 4 months). The oils seep into the dry wood and recondition it and unlike modern paints breathes when dry. Costly paint, but you need a l o t less to go along way. Needs to be painted on in very thin layers, but stunning to feel and look at.
Color charts in keeping with this type and period of building are usually called "allmoge", which was the word for the rural farming class of Swedish people back in the day. Companies specializing in paints of historical accuracy and preservational quality without latex or other awful content are for example Gysinge, Ottosons, Ovolin, Kulturhantverkarna, ABC Färgekonomi, and several others. Usually in every region of the country there's at least one or two regional paintsuppliers that make paint of this sort for regional houses, and those geezers usually are a veritable fountian of knowledge and references for all things concerning renos, materials, local pigments and traditions. It's fun to look into even if you make other descisions. All of the traditions involve keeping these wood houses free of mould, mildew, wood worm, breathing and protected against the elements. The red exterior paint is a nation wide tradition called Falu Rödfärg. Its made of local iron vitriol burnt to different shades of red in different parts of the country. The high level iron vitriol protects like nothing else in freezing temperatures, long periods of wet melting frost and breathes in summer. Nothing is accidental really or a case of pure tastes, historically. I've mixed my own oil paints using traditional recepies with natural pigments and that saves on the costs as well and isn't too hard to do. Vapor barriers and breathable finishes are everything in old houses or they start to rot and crack eventually. Black or pink mould in a wood house is a death sentanced to the house (and very dangerous to live with even trace amounts). There's huge amounts of free help, guidance and expertize available all over Sweden and the internet too.
Riks Antikvarie Ämbetet (RAÄ) is nationally tax funded and represented in every district (Län). They have local archives of landscapes and records of cottages, have experts, and answer questions, have free references, libraries, and lists of producers of materials to share. From wallpaper to roof tiles and window latches. They also have an extensive homepage on materials for reno, conservation, repair and envorinmentally healthy upkeep and cleaning of historical buildings explaining the ingredients and their function, the origin of the pigments from deep blue, to rich yellows, greens and Gustavian greys inspired by French 18th century architecture.
This house may very well have an original foundation or section from the early 18th century, later expanded, altered.
It was very common back then. Just sime handy tips and info. The RAÄ is funded by taxes, for the people, to preserve the culture, houses and old agricultural plants for future generations without causing damage to environments. There are also grants to apply for, for those with houses of particular historic value, great or very small.
I think it is nice! Better than I thought originally. Compliments the pine walls🍂🌰🍁
The terracotta looks great on your storm windows...that's what my folks called them back in the day when I lived in Michigan, US. I so look forward to your videos! They're so beautiful and relaxing.
For your tomatoes...
you can pick the green ones and lay it in a warm dark place - the will be red in a fwe days!
only the green leaves can metabolize the chloropyll ;)
I just painted my entire dining room and half of my kitchen that color, called Moroccan Sky and I totally love it's warm, cozy appeal...I live in Florida, USA, it gives an Earthy clay pot look and is beautiful when the sun streams in...I love your choice of paint...!
Nothing wrong with the window color rosie, looks great
I think it looks very good - without custom blending the color yourself onsite in the same light as where it will be used it's difficult to obtain the color you have in your mind. And any change will be super noticeable at first. I think as the season changes to winter, with less light & brightness and the color of the light outdoors is colder the warmth of the window color may become more appealing to you.
Rosie~ After seeing the windows in place I actually love them! It looks very finished now like they help frame the area outside! Great work!
Choosing Joy ~ stephanie
Hi Rosie, I love the colour of the windows, I love watching your video's. Thank you. 👍😉🇮🇪☘️
This is my favorite of your videos. I felt anxiety melt out of the pit of my stomach watching the little clips of the nature around your house. I love your points of view and attention to beautiful details. I love your other stuff too but wow, I really loved that. The frost still covering things in the shadows and the warmth of the sun you can almost feel it looking at the trees. Thank you so much
It is absolutely gorgeous
Copper will blend excellent with your sage green. The copper color against all that wood AWH ❤
very nice choice 👍🏻
I think the terra-cotta/soft warm orange is life-giving and joyful! It seems a very cheery color to wake up to, and a comforting one in the evening darkness. I say keep it!
I just love watching your videos, so peaceful, i had a stroke years ago cant walk or use my left arm hand. So watching you have relaxes me, you are an amazing person im sure your parents have to be so proud of you
The terracotta on the interior windows draws the eyes to the glass not the color of the trim around the glass. The color is pleasing and not as stark as the white. I think it will emphasize the plants. That pie looked delicious.
I love the terracotta brown; it is very earthy and is an autumn color. It compliments nicely with the greens.
The terracotta looks great...compliments the wood tones nicely. I think it's lovely. 👍
Good to take it easy sometimes. No need to do everything in a short time. Most important you have fixed. I dont no if you have firewood. Electricity might bee expensive in winter. You have done enough Rosie. The rest you can take it easy with. 🙂👍🌞
At the moment no approved fireplace or firewood, but I'll make it work somehow :)
@@wildrosie 👍🌞
I like the terracotta colour a lot. It goes really nicely with the wood and has a warm feeling. :)
Your progress is amazing! Well done!
I like the color of the windows. I also like that you have storm windows for the kitchen, sure will help with the heat in the winter.
May I suggest, since you're winterizing your place - staple some clear plastic in the window opening of the bathroom. Since there's no glass, it will help keep out the colder air, drafty feeling and mice, will just help to make it feel warmer. Just something that I would do, I hate the cold.
So helpful yes I use 6m plastic on my sliding door and a small hallway window make a 💯 difference putting temporary plastic up for winter ❄️
I love what you're doing! The windows are perfect for the season. Yes, maybe, different from what you expected, but different can take us out of our norm and discover new likes. You are very inspiring and I look forward to your next video. I loved the way you went from one task to another, inside, outside, painting, plants, gathering berries, baking, etc. Great video! ❤️
Wow, that's a totally nice color you got for the windows, It gives a lot of coziness and goes so well with your things. I think a lot about your lack of heat and that chimney. You could get good heat in the kitchen and enjoy it so much. Isn't there someone who follows you nearby who could help and get a handle on that chimney because it's not that bad. Praying someone would be able to help you. If I had money I would send one tomorrow that could make your house work with heat. I think it's so hard for you, hate the cold. It's all so beautiful with you, you're very talented.
I love thease earthy colours! A brave choise that turned out really good in the end. It makes me wanna go outside my comfortzone with the colours in my house to! 😅🙏🏼
When I was young we called those storm windows and of course they were installed before winter and removed again in the spring. However I like that you call them winter windows, which of course they are to keep the cold weather out. Love what you’ve done with your house, particularly the kitchen and those painted winter windows really take the kitchen to the next level! 👍 I like it!
I too like the terra cotta color. it warms things up a bit. Your pie looks scrumptious !!! I love your videos. You are so brave to take on what you've done. Keep sharing as so many of us are enjoying these, and inspiring as well. take care.
The colour on the windows are beautiful together with the wooden walls. A great choice !!! Great job !!!
Thank you Rosie ! Your pie looks so delicious ! I bet it is a lot better with Hot Tea! Just admire you in everything you are doing! Have a great week! God bless you dear!🌼🌼🌼
I love the terra cotta windows, adds such a warm feeling to the kitchen.
I have so enjoyed seeing your journey over the past year! Thanks for welcoming us along 😊 The paint color turned out nice 🎨🌻
I'm sorry to hear you've been stressed. Please know I'm thinking of you and hope whatever is worrying you, works out. Lovely video as always! Thanks for enriching my Sunday morning Rosie:)
To prevent the mice to come into my old house I have bought Silverline A-Repellers at the Granngården store. I just plug them into various power outlets and they scare the mice away with ultrasound. I have seen both mice and rats in my garden, but I find no traces of them indoors, so it seems to work.
I have full confidence in your choices since you are an experienced decorator with building skills. Green houses, clothing and remodeling your cottage and bath house. Do be careful in the woods. I don't want any injury to "OUR ROSIE"
BRAVO!
The original sky blue was lovely as well! Cheerful and light!
Bringing in the warmer color will make your home feel warmer & cozier in the winter.
It flows with the wood interior, not decreasing the feel of the room size.
In case you do not already know, green tomatos can be ripened with the opened peels of banana skins laid in their vicinity......you have done a great job with your reno. Your woodworking skills are inspiring. You may find it useful to make a bench outside underneath your porch so you can sit down comfortably to take off your boots to avoid traipsing muddy & snowy boots through your lobby.....
I love the rich terracotta color. It is my main accent color throughout my home, complimenting my cream walls, light woods and 50 green houseplants. My house is decorated cozy-rustic and fall colors prevail throughout the year. Your windows add such warmth to your beautiful kitchen. I agree with Donna, that art on the walls, with terracotta tones will bring a warm cohesiveness the interior design. All in all, everything is looking very beautiful, Rosie! I recently read that the orange based colors increase the serotonin levels in the brain more than any other color. Happy Autumn to you and your subscribers. 🍂
I look forward to every Sunday as you share parts of your life and evolving beautiful little home. As I began watching your video this morning I found myself welling up with tears...the peaceful beauty of it touched me so deeply. I needed it. Thank you. 🥀
Lovely! You might know by now that you can pick all of our tomatoes, even the green ones, and put on a tray and keep in a dark place, or out in the kitchen, and they will turn red during winter. Do not need to have the plants inside...
Watching you makes me calm down... I enjoy each part of it... What a wonderful thing is baking a tart with berries taken from the forest around 🍒
I love the colour. It gives more interest and depth to the overall feel and it goes perfectly with everything.
I think the color is lovely, just enough contrast.
A tip around the mice, you will never be able to prevent them to get in, not in the pumphouse, not in the house, they can squeeze through a hole the size of a pencil, or make a new hole. Try to give them some place outside of your house to setup, like a pile of wood or something, and set traps there, before they get into the house. I use Swedish kaviar as bait, they seem to like that :D
Deterring mice seems to be tricky, making a little home for them sounds like a cute idea haha! I use linseed oil to catch them - they love it for some reason!
@@wildrosie Regarding mice: consider getting a cat. Getting rid of the mice is just one of the many benefits of having a cat around. It looks like your cabin is in the perfect location for an outdoor cat.
Love the warmth that it brings. Good choise.
I am binge watching. I love watching each step you share with us
I absolutely love where you live. God bless you Rosie ❤️
I love the terracota on the windows!
Rosie, you should put a stove into your cabin, it well help you with heating and it's quite cheap source of energy if you have wood :)
Dear Rosie! Be sure to bring inside the green tomatoes! They will ripen still and be a lovely addition on a cold day
Hi Rosie! Your videos are so meditative. There's nothing I enjoy more than picking berries from nature's bounty and baking something delicious, and you make it look like a sacred ritual. I really like the terracotta color on the storm windows. At one point you were painting right next to a terracotta pot and it completely matched, so I guess it's well-named. Be well!
SINCE YOU LIKE DARK GREEN AND OTHER SHADES OF GREEN, TRY USING THESE GREEN SHADES IN YOUR KITCHEN AS OBJECTS OF DECORATION SUCH AS MIXING BOWLS, TOWELS, A AREA RUG IN FRONT OF YOUR SINK OR EVEN SOME COUNTERTOP CANISTERS OR A CHALK BOARD WITH DARK GREEN PAINTED EDGES FOR EXAMPLE. THIS SMALL TOUCHES OF YOUR FAVORITE COLOR CAN OFF SET THE TERRACOTTA COLOR IF YOU THINK THIS COLOR IS TOO ORANGE. JUST A THOUGHT. YOU DO SUCH A WONDERFUL JOB DECORATING AND THINKING THINGS OUT. THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR VIDEOS WITH ALL OF US. STAY WARM.
I love the greens and the terracotta brown!! They are colors of nature and just beautiful!!!
Hi Rosie.🌹
Thanks for another great video. The windows turned out great. I would bring in the biggest tomatoes and let them ripen in the kitchen window. Because there is a risk that they will crack, now that it is getting colder outside. Is that a water filter you have on the bench?
Pick white moss in the forest and put it between the windows to avoid condensation. That's how we always did in the past. If you put wadding under the moss, it will be even better. You avoid drafts.Take care/Birgitta.🍁🌻🍂The blueberry cake looked so good🫐
Unlike those renovating in Portugal where neighbors are so helpful and thoughtful, Sweden seems cold. You are so talented and brave.
Enhances the simplicity.Easy on the eye🇨🇦
I have viewed “Making An Autumnal Cabin Kitchen” several times. You are so creative. Your joinery is beautiful. I am in Dallas, Texas USA and have recently retired and looking forward to doing some gardening and my own DIYing. Thank you for the inspiration.
White color painted windows make small kitchen brighter & appear more spacious. The cheerful spring & summer colors matches perfectly with natural wood interior & the red exterior !
The pastel nude makes the kitchen appears boring & flat !
I think your windows look lovely and the colour is great. Your home is growing more and more beautiful with every video. Have a lovely week.
Love the colour Rosie. Great choice. Brings added warmth. You will need that this Winter !
It looks lovely. In the United States we call them storm windows. It is going to freeze here this week and we brought all of out green tomatoes in and wrapped them in paper; they will slowly ripe. We also made fried green tomatoes and green tomato salsa.
Storm windows! Yes I've heard that term too. Wrapping tomatoes in paper sounds like a good idea. I'm not sure what to do with mine, they're still inside!
@@wildrosie They won't grow any longer on the plants by bringing them inside, the vines will just die. Might as well pick the tomatoes and throw the plants out. You will get fresh tomatoes for a month as they slowly ripen.
Really impressed by all the work you do on your own! Must be beautiful in the woods with the fall 🍁
I have been watching your channel since the beginning. You, your beautiful home and your videos have come such a long way! You should be sooooo proud! ✌️❤️😁🤙
Hello how are you doing?
That pie looks SO good, Rosie. You know, if you ever need to call in reinforcements, you can just bribe us with pie. We'll jump in the car whenever you need 😍
Well in that case - how do you feel about heights? My chimney needs fixing 🤪 I’ll start baking pies now to make it more enticing for you haha
MY DEAR ROSIE THIS SUMMER I PAINTED THE WALLS OF MY KITCHEN WITH THE COLOUR YOU MADE THE WINDOWS . I ALSO FOUND TILES FOR THE KITCHEN IN THE SAME COLOUR . SO JUST THINK THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE MORE MORE EXTREME THAN YOU . ❤
Very beautiful autumn impressions ! I love the atmosphere of brightness and cosiness in your kitchen , it's so well done. I 'm sure you enjoy being in that room . 💛🧡💚
the pie looks so yummy!! 😊 thank you for sharing your autumn! ☀️🍁
Color adds the right touch of warmth and pop! I thin it’s lovely.
The terracotta color turned out better than i expected 🤔
What do you think about Robins Egg Blue? I really love that color. it's so stylish🤩
Yes, Robin's egg blue would of have looked amazing 😍
I love the color!! It brings warmth and compliments the wood! I like it a lot. Everything is getting so cozy!
One of my favorite colors. It seems to work in the light of fall. It will Be interesting to see how it plays through the winter
I love the windows, terracotta, burnt orange and mustard are my favourite colours although not necessarily all together!! 😃😃
I have to say that kitchen looks amazing!!!! Even the terra cotta paint looks good. Sit with it for some time and decide if it’s right for you. I like it.
I like the earthy color, very natural. It goes perfectly with everything.
please keep making videos, waiting for 32, I was missing you and seeing what progress you are making
I think the window frame colour looks great - it gives the room a lift ! Be a good colour choice for winter to brighten up the space ...
whaaa noo, I really loved that light blue color of windows. It's like in villages near sea.
I like the warm toasty new window color. You are amazing, you give me the energy to keep going with my diy projects
Hello, Rosie. I think the Terracotta looks nice. If I understood correctly, you're painting the walls sage? So I think the Terracotta against the sage will give it a different tone. I think it will look very charming and inviting. That pie!!! Mmmm.🍂💕
The walls around the stove / shelving in the middle of the kitchen will go green. I'm very curious how that will all look in the end!
@@wildrosie I'm sure it will look lovely. It will all come together perfectly.
