5 Reasons Why Home Made Decor makes me Happy

I do have a thing for home made decor.

This decor is made by a former colleague Malene.

She made a post on facebook post about it,

and I thought:

Hey why not make a little tribute

to home made decor.

The reasons why I love home made decor are simply:

Home made decor is

unique
difficult to copy
made for the room
personal
craftsmanship

I have home made decor myself, made for my windows

and I use them for Christmas….

and they are more than 10 years old

They still make me happy,

they fit my rooms, my style

they are the one and only

and I made them.

If you have any decor you made yourself

or if you have any decor you really loooove

Please Show it to me

Then I know it is not only Marie, my former colleague & me

who love Home Made decor

Just post it here or send it to

Piece 4 Love

3 lists that help you find your inner talents

A post about finding your inner talents

I made so many lists that I realized that the lists could help me find my inner talents and
figure out what to do with my life. These lists helped me out when I was the most sadest,
(read that story here)

This means that this text is for you who:

Have difficulties in figuring out what your biggest talents are
Have hard time figuring out what to do in life
Always get tired of your work after short time

I have been there myself,

Never satisfied with what I was doing
Never knowing exactly what to do with my life

Not because I did not do anything, I have always had a job, but because I always felt some kind of lack…

Until I started my own business, but that is another story, today
it is about how you can use these three lists to find your inner talents & figure out
what to do with your life and be happy at the same time.

How to do:

Grab a piece of paper and make 3 columns

In the first column you list the good experiences you have had in your life
In the second column you write down what made you smile in each of the experiences from the first column
In the third column you write down which role you played in order to enjoy these experiences

Now you have 3 columns

√ the first listing the good experiences in your life

√ the second listing what makes you happy

√ the third lists the things you are good at

And now it is up to you to start working with these lists and
see how you can combine what makes you happy and what you are good at.
And it is the process of studying yourself you find your inner talents.

Your skills are to be found in the third column describing your role in each of the good experiences you had.

Your motivation is to be found in the second column describing what makes you happy.

Now do your best to find your inner talents.

If you have questions or difficulties working with the lists,
upload a picture of your 3 columns as a comment, and I can guide you further.

Please share this to everybody you know have difficulties in figuring out their inner talent
and what do in life.

Thank you so much for reading.

your talents are your pieces 4 love in your life <3

Why Piece 4 Love became a Blog

explaining why the blog Piece 4 Love became reality

never occurred to me being necessary, but …wauw … did I not learn
anything at University..?…

the Why,,,

is the most important!

The why is what makes me wake up in the morning!

The why is what makes me take more than 1000 pictures a week!

The why is what makes me write at night and not see my friends!

And why is it then?

Since I was little I wanted to save the world, by helping people respect

themselves, each other and the nature….

BUT

then in my early 20’ies I forgot everything…. because.. well,,,

I could give other people

the blame…

but I have grown, I know now that I got blinded…

Blinded by things and stuff,

believing that I really would win if I died with the most shoes…
(I still do not remember how I got into this stupid idea!)

So in the aim of winning I saw myself in one big mess of things… clothes, shoes, accessories… you name it,,, I bet you know it. The feeling of being better, just because you bought an extra pair of black shoes… but only for a short time…

Look at me at this picture, I am on my way to Italy for 4 weeks,

and I have so many things that I cannot decide which things to bring.

And even when you see me smile and look good at this picture from 2007,

I was sad

really sad, I was about 30 years old, and ready to die.

Did not know what to do with my life,

I lost, what I for 10 years worked my but out to get.

Boyfriend, friends, network, house, everything, I even lost myself.

Even if I in 2008 had a comic series out on the internet, with more than 50000 unique visitors in 24 days, from all over the world,,,, I dropped it… I did not know what to do with all that people, I did not know what to do with the internetpage and I did not know how to network anymore.

This drawing is from the sketch when the character Silli Anina in church Christmas eve, is told that she does not get her bags and shoes with her
when she dies…

And this is why I started Piece 4 Love, because you can get yourself

all the pieces of things, clothes, shoes and accessories you wish for.

But the most important thing in life is love.

Love from you to yourself.

Love from you to the world.

Love from the world to you.

So the Why of creating this blog is because I would like to tell you

that you are the most important piece 4 love in your life.

You are the one bringing love to yourself.

You are the one bringing love to your daily life.

You are the one bringing love to the world.

Sometimes it can be difficult to live life!

But I have finally found my way, a way that works,

without buying me out of the problems.

You are a piece 4 love reading my story here,,,

it was quite challenging writing my inner feelings out,

about my Why…

but I really hope you enjoyed, feel free to comment…or even better:

Follow here

That makes me dance =)

Look Good & Save the World

Anna

ps. next post will be about Marie,,, my partner in crime

pps. Thanks Jeff Goins I now realized how important my Why is!

Take the good with the bad

Life is full of ups and downs so you have to learn to:

Take the good with the bad, smile with the sad,

love what you’ve got and remember what you had.

Always forgive but never forget. Learn from mistakes but never regret,

people change, things go wrong, just remember, life goes on.

piece 4 love

It is important to celebrate

To celebrate is a really important thing in life –

Marie & I (the chicks behind piece 4 love) celebrated

the fact that…. (drums please)

We have more than 100 posts about

pieces 4 love

Look Good & Save the World

that is amazing.

We are so proud… and this is why we this time met up for

celebrating instead of working…

Well we did work a little bit.

Maria made a lovely lunch containing the famous Danish black bread

and eggs, cucumber, and some tomatoes.

We talked and chatted about nothing & everything.

Then we continued our celebration by

sorting out Marie’s remarkably big number of bags and purses.

Oh my love… she has many bags, suitcases and lovely purses.

and we continued celebrating finding several pieces 4 love

A purse from Bridge, a clutch from DKNY, handmade leather bag,
BeckSondergaard and many others.

The celebration went on by opening Marie’s closet..

We found several cardigans with absolutely no life

We found dresses and shirts that were ready for being worn

but forgotten under other blouses & pants.

Since time ran out we did not manage to go through all Marie’s closet…

but we did manage to go through a lot:

This big bag is what we gonna give to charity:

and the collection of big amount of purses & bags

are ready for another life with other people.

Because they are still valuable pieces 4 love.

We do believe in acting local is a first priority

which is why we’ll

find a flee market and sell the items there…

UNLESS

you see one bag or purse here
you really need, then hurry and join our

piece 4 love movement

not only will you receive news about

extremely lovely handcrafted accessories and stuff for home

but we’ll also send you extremely valuable

tools 4 life,

My Father’s Jacket

This post is dedicated my Father’s Jacket.

He got it from my little sister when she worked at Bruuns Bazar

like many years ago…

A lovely present.

How it ended up in my closet… I do not remember.

But this fall I am curious to see how many looks I can mix with My Father’s Jacket.

Underneath the jacket I have my little black skirt from Samsoe & Samsoe
and a black top from designers remix… shoes my beloved Lola Ramona

About my hair… oh yes I know it is a pony tale,,, but I think it fitted well today.

And as the former rollerblader, I couldn’t stop wall riding the bank!

Look Good & Save the World

wear your father’s jacket!

pieces from the 70ies

oohhh the sweet 70ies

or 17 th….

When I was 17 I got a jacket, … that was in,,,

1994… like 20 years ago… but I got this lovely

blue jacket of suede.

The jacket is from the mid 70ies,,, which make the jacket

older than me… that’s nice =)

As you can see,,, it is old, and I have not used it for years. Like 15 years,

But I got inspired from the blogger Lady Haze of Vintage, she inspired me to

find my jacket from it’s hidings and I will try to fresh it up, and make a look

for lookbook with my blue suede vintage jacket.

Look Good & Save the World

Maria & Anna

ohh by the way,,, would you like to join the movement Piece 4 Love… join here

City Trip, me & Marie

Me & Marie went out photoshooting for lookbook

in new areas of Copenhagen,

Such a lovely day, with lots of sun & fun.

Going Out

Today was a marvelous day shooting in the sun with Marie.
I love the dress from Mania, which you have seen before.
And enjoy that I can use it differently by dressing up & down.

This time I dressed it up with my stylish jacket from bruuns bazar … and my shoes from Paris

the jacket is more than 8 years old, I but it for appr. 10 eur in an outlet because it has no belt

which I realized made me use it less than I hoped

but I still use it for special occasion
but not enough,,, I have to be better using things I have!

and I know… sorry… I still ow you a story
about the shoes…
coming up…. next time

I hope you enjoyed my hair, which I made in less than five minutes

&
I am proud
because as you probably remember
I normally have my pony tale

or my hair hanging lose….

which I concluded was a bit to much some posts ago…

so as you can see,,, I use my own medicine on myself

work a little on my dream of

Looking Good & Saving the World

by saving myself first.

And I am so happy Marie is there to support me.
