Happy Monday - have you ever been to Sweden! Or do you own a cabin? 👋🏼😁A quick tour of our cozy Swedish cabin...if you saw Friday's video, you'll know that we've had a stressful few days because our Swedish neighbours had a house fire. Everyone is fine but a lot of material damage. Miraculously our property is unscathed! We bought our cabin back in the summer of 2012 and use it often...
Happy Monday, Diane! Way back in 1981 I made a day trip to Sweden, taking the ferry from Helsingor, and had a picnic in an astonishingly beautiful beech forest. We don't have beech trees where I live. The reality was so much more awe-inspiring than I had imagined from reading books... the light coming through the layers of tender green leaves... aaah! Loved your tour, thank you!
Couldn't figure out why you were posting on a Sunday? Then I realized it's actually Monday. 😅 3 Day Weekend here in the States. Just finished cleaning up the kitchen after The Big Grill . Celebrating clean space with a wee Whisky. 🥃 Weekly Upkeep tomorrow after I send guests home. 🧹
How kind of you Diane to share the inside of your Swedish cabin with us. It is lovely and cosy and I can imagine you and your family having lots of enjoyable times there.
Cute cabin, so glad you were spared the fire. Great to get away for the weekends and relax. This is our U.S. Memorial Day for those who served in the military❤. Stay safe. Thanks for sharing
Thats very admirable. I never pack so well in advance that i could also do a deep clean. I dont know how people do this… hopefully one day i will be able to achieve this level of life management 😊
Thank you for the tour of your sweet little home! Im I'm so glad no one was hurt, and you sustained no damage to your cabin! Last summer our daughter's next-door neighbor's home was struck by lightning, and the subsequent fire caused considerable damage. My daughter and son-in-law were temporarily evacuated, and some of the siding on their home melted, but it could've been so much worse! Very grateful everyone is safe!
Thanks for the tour of your summer house as you decluttered! I continue in the declutter mindset, and have two small boxes ready for the charity shop. Two pairs of shoes, a couple of shirts, and several home decor items. It's Memorial Day in my country, and I'm thinking of my platoon-mate, Herring, who died when we were on a field manuver in the spring of 1975.
I always find it so interesting to hear how different cultures say certain words. Where I come from (the American Midwest) we say "rummy-cube" rather than "rummy-cube." Either way, it's also a vacation game for my family along with the game boggle.
Very fun, Diane! Thank you for checking in with us during this more difficult time for you. I enjoyed seeing what a Swedish summer cabin looks like. Cozy!
Your cabin is how I'd like my small bungalow house to look. It's so calm and restful. I spent some time today decluttering souvenir items from a small box in my closet. I've made one pass through it already, but I'll put it aside for a few weeks before I go through everything again to see what else I can depart with. Thanks for sharing your cozy cabin with us!
I am so happy that your beloved cabin is okay. I have houseguests coming this week and found myself to be a bit anxious this morning. I have been spending my mornings in the gardens, and the house was not up to snuff. I asked myself, "What would Diane do?" You guessed it...I set my trusty timer and got to work. My home was not so far off as I thought thanks to my routines. You really have inspired me to keep up with things and to use small segments of time wisely. Thank you so much!🦋
Had to sit and enjoy this one. I love your cabin! It looks to be about the size of the apartment I am moving into tomorrow. I am looking forward to decluttering to fit comfortably inside it, using the systems I learned from you. Thank you!!!!
I always find it amazing that you continue to find new things to declutter since you have been decluttering for a while now! It’s lovely to see your cabin. I can’t help but think about the TV series (that you put us onto) when you’re crossing over “The Bridge” !
Your Swedish home is just as lovely as your Danish home. I was hoping you'd show us your guest houses, but maybe next time. Thank you so much for all you share with us. 🙂
Looks great. I’m reminded of the benefits of keeping things simple so you can focus your energy on your priorities. I admire what you’ve achieved and how you inspire others.❤
What a cozy, sweet cabin tour. And thanks for the continual motivation. A few days ago friends stopped by my place and I didn't have to do any cleaning before they arrived. It was a lovely payoff for small daily habits. : )
Hi Diane! I enjoyed seeing your cabin. I've had some problems with side effects from my last surgery, and I missed last weeks' videos but I'm going to go back and watch them soon. I hope to be caught up by the end of the week.
Thank you again for the cabin tour! I love it! It took me longer than I expected to get back to watching the videos in order to comment on them. I enjoy your pep talks, and words of inspiration, and look forward to them, even when I can't always comment right away!
Thank you for showing us round your cabin - it is lovely. We visited Stockholm last June and loved it - we took the ferry around the archipelago and stopped off at Vaxholm and had a wander - there were lots of pretty homes there. We also visited Malmo for a day by train during our trip to Copenhagen in December - was very excited to go across “The Bridge” Today I’m decluttering our dvd drawer and I’m staring to listen to our CD collection again and declutter them .
Thank you for the tour of your beautiful cabin. You did a good job of tempering any jitters you felt over the fire. I'm continuing to declutter clothes and reclaiming storage space, and have discovered tablecloths my mother used to use, that can also go.
Inspiring/motivating & relaxing all at once. Always enjoy your videos. I've been shy to comment previously but pushing myself out of my comfort zone to hold up my half of the pact 😊 Thank you for sharing.
Working in the garden today...finally some sunshine here! Zone 5 tasks the rest of the week. Always appreciate that you include the list of tasks for each zone in the videos!!
Hi Diane. Thanks for sharing your Swedish cabin - very cozy! Sorry for your neighbors’ loss. Glad there wasn’t more fire damage to the neighborhood. Say, I went to an awesome Simon Lynge concert held at my neighbors’ while he’s touring in the USA. He also played in nearby Chico and Paradise, California - and I think down in LA. He was accompanied by the amazing multi-instrumentalist, Richard Lobb. What a dynamic musical duo. Simon’s music is richly heart-warming and thought provoking. Absolutely beautiful. I’m pretty certain you must know of him as he is very well known in his homeland, Denmark. I hope his US Tour is fruitful. He deserves to be up in the charts and on everyone’s playlist. Are you a fan? 🎼🎶🎵🎸🎶
Lovely to see your Swedish cabin after hearing so much about it. I had to laugh when you said your bathroom and kitchen were very small, as most kitchens and bathrooms in the UK are pretty much the same size as yours 😂. I store my wine glasses one upside and one down side, makes a bit more room. Thank you again Diane for a lovely tour. 🎉🎉🎉
Your Swedish summer house is so lovely! It looks like the perfect spot to get away and relax by the sea at any season of the year. Thanks so much for the tour!
What a beautiful place you have in Sweden! Very cozy and bright! We have been declutterring to donate boxes to some friends who are in need of them. Our area was hit by 3 tornadoes early Sunday morning and some of our friends’ homes were heavily damaged. Thankfully our friends were not hurt. We pulled 12 boxes out of our closet (they’ve been in there since we moved here in 2022). We decluttered down and were able to empty 8 of the 12 boxes! It always feels so good to get the clutter out! Hope you have a happy week!
Love your little cabin, so cosy and hugge! Thank goodness no one was hurt in the fire, and your cabin was fine. Great idea to label cupboards when different people are using the space - hopefully you will be able to find things when you’re there too! 😊
Charming summer house! Some of my ancestors are from that area of Sweden so I always love a peek at the scenery. Thanks, always, for your videos, Deane!
Love your Swedish cabin! Thank you so much for sharing with us. So light and cozy. You always inspire me with your enthusiasm and your consistency. You help me to realize a little each day brightens your life. So glad I found your channel.
Really enjoyed seeing the cabin after hearing you talk about it for so long. Is it in a little community of holiday homes or do some people live there all year?
Thanks for reminding me to label my kitchen. We have a lot of our children’s friends in & out of the house. So that would be helpful to them, and thus me!😊

Also-- love your labels in the kitchen. Makes it so much easier for guests (and for you 😊)
I love your cabin! It is so charming!! I have never been to Sweden or own a cabin. I would like to live in one some day.

I enjoyed seeing your summer house, Diane. It looks very comfortable and inviting.
I could happily live there.. forever..... cosy home by the sea.... gorgeous...
I love your YT name! 😂
@@eileencarroll6418 😆 Reassuringly, I'm not grumpy and I don't stink....
Seeing your cabin can help you visualize for your downsizing adventure as a bonus!❤😅
Glad all is ok w/cabin which btw is adorable…. I always envision cabins decorated w/furniture u no longer need and a step away from discarding 😂.
Cute cabin, so glad you were spared the fire. Great to get away for the weekends and relax. This is our U.S. Memorial Day for those who served in the military❤. Stay safe. Thanks for sharing
I like to do a quick declutter when packing to go on vacation. I also do a deep cleaning so we come home to a clean house.
Thats very admirable. I never pack so well in advance that i could also do a deep clean. I dont know how people do this… hopefully one day i will be able to achieve this level of life management 😊
@@veronikamisikova2516 I'm a stay at home mom so I have the time

What a treat to tour your Swedish house. It is beautiful and so cozy and inviting .
It‘s so lovely. ❤
Thanks for sharing.
Watching the video feels like beeing on vacation. 🏡⛱️
What a fun tour! I’m glad your cute cabin is all right and that no one was hurt in the fire.
Oh, my! Your little cabin is a dream house!
Aww, thank you so much, Penelope - we do love it!
Your summer house looks so inviting! It must be a perfect getaway from the city at all times of the year!
I laughed at your mosquito comment. We have a similar phenomenon with our (Scottish) midgies. I think it's because of all of the rain!!
Thank you for the tour! It’s a beautiful inspiration for keeping a simple house.
I love the Dala horses at the beginning and end of the video!
‘Little kitchen’…. Your kitchen there is muuuuch bigger than mine at home! 😜 Lovely to see your cabin Diane 🙋🏻♀️
Very fun, Diane! Thank you for checking in with us during this more difficult time for you. I enjoyed seeing what a Swedish summer cabin looks like. Cozy!
What a sweet place! You're a lucky lady 😍
Thanks for the tour of your Swedish cabin. Charming! I worked on decluttering the 3rd bathroom drawer.

What a lovely cosy place!
Looks great. I’m reminded of the benefits of keeping things simple so you can focus your energy on your priorities. I admire what you’ve achieved and how you inspire others.❤
House tours are my favorite kind of TH-cam video and yours was no exception! I would gladly move in, lock, stock, and barrel too! ❤
What a sweet retreat! Love the kitchen with all its windows! 🤗
Your summer house looks so cozy and inviting.
And you're right, that is the cutest smallest little washing machine
You were very lucky. Amazing what can fit in a small cabin with good choices of storage, appliances, and furnishings...like the curved couch.
Love your haircut! Kind greetings from the Netherlands
Your cabin is sooo nice! It looks so tidy, clean and easy to relax in. thanks for sharing. 😍
Thanks for watching, Heartquaked- always good to see you!
Funny. I just took some hangers back to the dry cleaners today.
Gorgeous cabin thank you for showing round 😍
What a lovely cabin! Thank you for sharing with us. ❤
What a loverly house ❤
Was able to declutter some more CDs, vase, clothing snaps which looked like they came from the 1950's 😂 Glad to hear your cabin was okay.
Thank you for the inspiration…….will tackle a closet today!
I’ve had a massive case of the blahs recently, but getting back on track now and it’s all thanks to your videos so thank you Diane. Værsgo! ❤️🇩🇰

Your summer home is beautiful and cozy! Thank you for sharing it with us. ❤

What a lovely nest of a house! ❤
Such beautiful place! I'm so glad everyone is fine❤

Lovely summer house!
Thank you for sharing.
I love Whiskey Galore. I have the book and two dvd’s. The old one and the new film
I still haven't seen the "new" film yet, Joan - looking forward to it!

Thank you so much for the tour of your Swedish vacation home. What a treat to get to see it after hearing about it for several years.
I'm still working on the garden/garden shed. The weather is lovely, so it is far more tempting to work outside. Thanks for the motivation as always.
My dream is for a family cabin on a lake! I dont know if it will ever come to pass by I sure loved to see yours!
Your summer house is lovely! Such a sweet get-away! Thank you for sharing!
