Ølhøner - Decorated hand carved hens - Wassertrog aus Kiefernholz handgeschnitzt und dekoriert in schönen Farben

Husflidmotiv:Drikkekar skåret i tre - NK 1430




Alt starter på landsbygden! I gamle dager brukte man store serveringsboller av tre til å servere øl i. For å gjøre serveringen enklere lå der vanligvis en liten bolle, (trefugl), oppi den store bollen. Denne trefuglen ble fylt med øl, og sendt rundt bordet. Eller den ble brukt når noen ville forsyne seg av ølet. Dermed startet tradisjonen med håndsmidde "Ølhøner" av tre.

I julehøytiden holder vi hardere på tradisjonene enn ellers. Ølhøne og spekemat må vi ha, enten vi spikker høna og skinka sjøl eller får noen andre til å gjøre det. Vanligvis er det mannfolk som driver med treskjæring og spikking, og denne tradisjonen er sterk og lang både i Norge, Sverige, Finland og Danmark.

"Morgendagens Arvegods"! Hver eneste ølhøne har sin egen personlige stil, men alle er de laget i tre og malt i nydelige oljefarger. Naturligvis velger de fleste å spikke ølhønene av furutre. Kanskje aller helst svensk furu?

Everything starts in the countryside! In the old days, people used large serving bowls of wood to serve beer in. To make serving easier and prevent to much beer to spill there was usually a small bowl, (hand carved hen of pine), placed in the big bowl. This hand carved hen of pine was filled with beer and passed around the table. Or it was used when someone would help themselves to more beer. Now, this was the birth of the tradition of decorated hand-carved "Ølhøner" made of nordic pine.

During the Christmas holiday season, we keep strong traditions when gathering. A gathering with "Ølhøne" (or hand carved wood hens of pine) and cured meats, is something we must have, whether we carve the wood hen and ham ourselves, or have someone else to do it. Usually it is men who are engaged in woodcarving, and it is a long and strong tradition in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark.

"Inheritance of tomorrow"! Every "Ølhøne" have their own personal style, but they all are made of wood and decorated in gorgeous oil colors. Naturally, most people try to carve their "Ølhøner" of pinewood. Perhaps most preferably Swedish pine?

Wassertrog für Bier trinken.

Alles beginnt in der Natur! In den alten Tagen, benutzten die Menschen große Schüsseln aus Holz, Bier in. Um Servieren einfacher lag da in der Regel einer kleinen Schüssel (trefugl) dienen, in der großen Schüssel. Diese trefuglen wurde mit Bier gefüllt und herumgereicht den Tisch. Oder es wurde verwendet, wenn jemand sich auf Bier zu helfen. Damit begann die Tradition der handgeschmiedeten "Ølhøner" von drei.

Während der Weihnachtszeit halten wir die Tradition härter als sonst. "Ølhøne" und Wurstwaren, müssen wir, ob wir Hühnchen und Schinken selbst geschnitzt oder jemand anderes zu tun. Normalerweise ist es Männer, die in der Holzbearbeitung und geschnitzt beteiligt sind, und diese Tradition ist stark und lang in Norwegen, Schweden, Finnland und Dänemark.

"Tomorrow's Inheritance Götter"! Jeder "Ølhøne" haben ihren persönlichen Stil, aber alle sind aus Holz gefertigt und in prächtigen Ölfarben gemalt. Natürlich versuchen die meisten Menschen "Ølhønene" aus Kiefernholz schnitzen. Vielleicht am meisten bevorzugt schwedischer Kiefer?

Vadmelspute med Ullbroderi...Myskudda med Yllebroderi....Felted Pillow and embroidery...

God ide! Putene er brodert på vadmel, og er et prosjekt mellom to venninner. De eier hver sin, og bytter putene seg i mellom. Dermed får de unike puter, og et flott minne.

Keepsake pillow! A long lasting memory from your best friends, a soft reminder from your best friend, or last, but not least, a perfect way to say: "Never say Goodbye"!! These unique pillows are a project between two friends. They take turns to embroider freely on each other's pillows. What a great idea!! The warm and soft lamb fur on the back, and the felted front of the pillow, tell they are living in a cold climate. Actually the temperature may fall to -40 c


Alt starter på landsbygden! Broderiet på bildet er fra Telemark og datert 1600-tallet. (www.svenskhemslöjd.se). Historien forteller at håndarbeidet eller broderiet var det eneste kvinnene eide, og ofte var det resirkulerte gamle klær de broderte på. Tips! Forestill deg din gamle vinterkåpe i ull som resirkulert sofapute:-) Old=New

Sjöjungfrun på bildet syddes i Telemark i Norge på 1600-tallet.

The photo from www.svenskhemslojd.se show a Norwegian wool embroidery dated 1600s from Telemark County. So, it all started in the countryside! It is embroidered free-hand on felted wool fabric. Often they recycled from old clothes. Remember wool is the only fiber that can filter itself. Now, imagine how your recycled wool winter coat could look like as pillow:-)

Pakken med garn og mønster kjøpte jeg i butikken på Nordanå Museum i Skellefteå. Så at de ville passe perfekt til bunaden 17 mai!! Historien om designeren er veldig rørende - God lesing!!
I bought the instructions and materials at Nordanå Museum in Skellefteå. My intention was to make the gloves to wear with my National Costume - Nordlandsbunaden -. With the cold weather in Norway they are truly a must. I like them a lot!!

The story of designer Brita Kajsa Karlsdotter is as follows:
Brita Kajsa Karlsdotter lived a hard life where the struggle for bread and food was her most important task each day. She was good and generous. Her strong religious beliefs gave her strength through the difficulties she met in her every day life. Often, her embroideries are signed with the letters ARTHG which means All The Glory Belong To God.

She was very poor. The material she used for table cloths were pieces of used sheet - recycling - återvinning - gjenbruk - even in the 1800s! She picked the part of the sheet that was in the best condition. More, she picked the red cotton threads of a glass towel to use for embroidering. Great idea for recycling!!

Her inspiration is from the nature in her surroundings. It was pine and Wild Swedish summer flowers. To make the pattern she had to tore into the fabric directly by using her nails or the needle. All her works are different, but her compositions may be repeated. Old = New!!

Hand-Knitted Slippers

Jørgen, 11 months - Harstad, Norway

Norsk skigenser - Nordic Sweater - 100% wool

Lenght: 66 cm, wide: 57 cm, Arm: 53 cm

Nordic sweaters have an interesting history. Originally, Nordic sweaters only came in black or white. These were the natural colors of sheep´s wool. Soon sweaters became high fashion, and people began combining other colors. Next knitters began experimenting with patterns, but usually on the very top of the sweaters because Nordic people tucked their sweaters down into baggy pants. Later, more intricate patterns emerged as people decided to combine function with fashion and wear their Nordic sweaters to events such as church.
