If your having an anxious depressed stretch of life watch Jonna. Her videos are better then any antidepressant pill I could take. She makes me genuinely smile and I havent done that in so long.
Because who on earth will not get inlove with Jonna? Even I as a straight girl just over a week knowing her is so inlove with her and just happy watching her videos.
Two beautiful young people, may I offer some advice. Your health (physical, emotional, mental) is your greatest need and your first priority. Slow down, eat healthy food, exercise, stretch, relax, sleep, do this everyday (each is 24 hours long, write it out on paper) and work no more than six days take the seventh for each other. If you don't your health (your selves) and relationship (each other) will suffer and degrade (weight gain, high blood pressure and hurt feelings). People love your handicraft and they will wait for it patiently if you only give them their number in the que and your reasonable pace. Stick to your decisions some will attempt to persuade you with more money and not deliver said payment. You may lose up to 10% of your customers but gain your sanity, health, contentment of your love for each other. The later is what truly matters. I offer my blessings to you both.
Very good advice Cliff, I do hope they take it to heart. They have such beautiful souls, it will be sooooo sad to see the business of life will destroy them.
Ohhhh geez yes I recognize myself so much in them and their work load and enthusiasm, and yes I totally agree with you! More time for rest, love and fun! I'm sure that both mine, and their, customers are totally fine waiting for their jewelry a little bit longer
I've just realized why people buy art. They want a piece of the artist...of their energy, love, care. That's what I think. That's why handmade things are so beautiful and feel so good to wear or look at. I really didn't understand it before..now, seeing all you put into your work, I really feel that each thing you create is special and worth the money you ask for it.
Dear Jonna, I've been facing some old demons again and some humans tried to drag me down for the past months. Your videos are medicine and a bliss for my soul and mind. I am so much in love with them... they keep me company, they inspire me, they make me happy. Thank god I've found your precious channel. Now, I haven't watched this video yet, as I quickly want to cook something and THEN I fully want to enjoy your video :) Lot's of love! Soley
Please make more singing vídeos. I play your singing vídeos for my daughter and my autistic son to help them sleep. We as a family love your voice! Please!
Just a small observation: if you have so many orders that you can hardly cope, you need to raise your prices. It's simple corporate finance: if supply is lower than demand, prices will increase. But you can also use price to regulate demand: a higher price will lower demand. And if demand is too low, you can lower your prices. The above is true for most things, but for some items (most likely those that are seen as luxurious) the opposite is true: if an "expensive" perfume is too cheap, less people will want to buy it. If the price is high (enough) more people will buy it. Whether or not your jewellery falls into this category is something you should probably find out, to adjust your products and prices accordingly. And just a final note: don't _ever_ compete with price as your unique selling point. If you must, you can lower your prices, but it is better to use a higher quality (possibly purer silver, or more unique designs or whatever it takes to stand out from the crowd) to compete. I think it is better to have low sales volume (in number of things sold) at a higher price than more sale volume (more items sold) at a lower price, even if your profit in both cases is the same.
This totally makes sense. I'm so glad I decided to take AP Microeconomics, it's so useful and I'm so glad I can understand economic concepts a whole lot better now.
I know how you guys feel about having no time and only time for work ... just wait till you have your bussiness as well as children then you will look back and think you had plenty of time and enough sleep . Its hard to fathom. 😉🤗😥 but worth every minute!
OMG .. helping to tie the painting and then a sweet kiss over it ... I’m melting from the love. Thank you for sharing your life a bit with the world. Kindness matters. Much love 💕🐝
From one business owner to another... Oh dear Jonna... You and Johan look so so tired :( I know exactly what you mean when the pressure of your business is more than you can control. The pressure of only being one person can be too much. You are beautiful and have given the world such a gift. Take advice from me. I ended up letting my business consume me. My mental health began to suffer and I ended up in the hospital. The elders talk badly about the technology for a reason.. I am coming to understand about their knowledge. We are humans, not robots, and we must unplug and sleep, rest, and take care of ourselves first. I just love you Jonna! Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world. But you & Johan do yourselves a big favor and rest. Take a break. Enjoy the new cottage and dissappear for awhile. I hope you both are truly enjoying your life and not too busy recording it, you get lost. I am a professional photographer and know EXACTLY how that can be. Blessings & love to you!!
This vlog made me feel sad for you. I know you are doing what you love, but at the same time there is so much demand for what you create that it has taken over your life. I am glad to see you are still making time to take lovely walks. Remember to stop and take those walks, rest, and create your own time. There will always be such a demand for both of you and what you do, but if you try to do so much it will loose its magic. Do what you can do and then make time for yourselves, because that is the most important element to your work! Sending you both light and happiness!!
I think that they are having "their time" while they are working in what they love. People don't use to understand that when you do what you really love you are always having "your time" and even vacations have another meaning. It is a "pleasurable tiredness", because you know that this is the price that you have to pay to receive all the abundance that the universe is rewarding you with. Their business is growing, because that is part of their amazing energy and hard work. This is part of the process, a caothic moment, but I am sure that they will manage it with grace... Maybe hiring other people to help them. I wish all the luck and happiness for you two, Jonna and Johan.
As a third-generation-born Swedish-American - I'm half Swedish - I very much enjoy watching your vlogs and learning about daily life in the north of Sweden. While I've never been to Sweden, I feel connected to the landscape and culture through your videos. Thank you for sharing with us!
Johan really seems like her soulmate. I legitimately can't imagine anyone more perfect for her. They're both different and as such, great complements to the other.
Jonna, I really have to say big massive thank you. At this days I have so much struggles and bad situations in my life that really tearing me apart. But your vlogs, your videos, they are just calming me down. I`m crying and watching this at the same time. Seeing how beautiful world is, how colorfull peoples exist, makes me feel less alone, less weak. Tack, Jonna!❤️
azalea scarlet tell me about it! Jonna is a gift from heaven. If I’m feeling sad, I just watch one of her videos and I feel lighter. OR sometimes I just start crying because her beautiful life and energy touches me.
Yes! Jonna is the cure (if i can say like that), the miracle, the light. She makes me feel motivated. I`m so glad what we can see her through this wideos. :)
Thank you Jonna and Johan and Nanuk... For everything.. You Are inspiring me so much.. You're giving me strength to believe in a better world and to believe I can finally start my own business with what I'm so good at and don't know why I didn't have he courage to put out til now, as a creative person... Lack of self esteem I'd say.. I hope someday I will be able to thrive on it as you do.. I feel like you're my sister even if I don't know you for real.. Because the relationship we have with nature is that of getting goosebumps and shiver when we see even a tree with the wind passing through its leafs... I love you guys.. Keep spreading love in a world so desperate for just love truth and compassion. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
" go to hell with that camera, and damn shit" 😅😅😅 your Grandpa is brilliant. Lovely to see you 2 successful, make hay while the sun shines as they say... Everybody loves you.. Including meeeee and my dog Lotty. I love all the work to do.. P. S. Always find time to cook sit and eat.
I was a potter for over 40 years, I understand what are you talking about. Sometimes you have to make your own choice, what is the most important things in your life. In the 40 years of professional potter I did 22 years of very hard work from morning to late night 7 days of the week. The rest of the 40 years I decided what is more important for me, I had some time I took it more slowly. Now I’m retired, but not 100%, when you are an artist you can’t really retire from your craft. I just play with Arts and Crafts and enjoy it. In the end I’m very happy how I did my life, I had everything, very hard work and enjoyment too in my professional life. My craft was my life, now it is a part of my life. The most important thing I can advise to you, you the one has to be happy with your life what ever you do. Sometimes we are not happy, disappointed, tired. Search in your life for good things it doesn’t have to be big, things around you, a bird sound, cloud, a beautiful object, it will change your mood and help you to move on. 🦋🌸🐝🌞
Jonna I feel like there is a part of me in you. When I see you happy I feel happy too. It's difficult to measure someone's love but when I say I send you lots and lots of love ,take it as 100 times more. Wish you and your guy all the very best in your life 😘😘😘
I suggest you and Johan should demand higher prices for your art, so you don´t have to work so much and still make a good living. I think that people will buy your art anyway, even if they have to pay more and wait longer for the delivery. Please take good care of yourselves and don´t stress yourself too much. You are both so precious.
she seems to care about keeping things accessible for everyone. I agree that we don't want to see them burn out but maybe the better way is to just have moratoriums on orders periodically to give them breathing room. Not pricing people out. Those of us who want to treasure their stuff, we'll wait our turn ...
Ihr bedankt euch immer so nett für's Zuschauen, doch würde das ja niemand tun, ohne euch 🙃 Also sage ich mal, vielen Dank dafür, dass es euch beiden gibt und dass ihr uns an eurem Weg teilhaben lasst🙏🏻 Ihr seid so wundervoll liebevoll und aufrichtig, einfach großartig🙏🏻 Ich wünsche mir mehr Menschen wie euch, denn ihr tragt Hoffnung und Frieden in die Welt 🙃❤️🙏🏻
Gorgeous drone footages! I'm glad your business is booming and that your painting has found a new home. I hope you find balance somehow, don't ruin your health for business. Have a nice weekend!
I am watching the videos retroactively. This one has reminded me that I can work hard, have an "out of balance" life and still find joy in my journey. Thank you Joanna and Johan ❤
Jonna I really like your and Johan's work, but you need to take it easy. I know you love what you're doing, but when you have busy months and don't have time to cook or eat, it's not good. You're like all the city people that are always busy, you're just busy in the countryside, but in the same way. Don't let it burn you out. If Johan has too many orders, just close the possibility to order things, just for some time. I don't know if you are so busy because you need the money or because you want to make all people happy, but it's taking a toll on you. I wish you all the best
Jonna, firstly may I congratulate you on gaining the audience you have, and managing to make a living from your passion. I write this message to both you and Johan, as I think it is equally relevant. As a business owner, I can relate to the challenges you are facing as you grow. Whether one is prepared for that business growth, or not. When you love what you do, it is very easy to get caught up in work. After all, you enjoy it. However, it’s important to remember that running a business, just like life, is a marathon, not a sprint. While i understand you left the city to escape the typical 9-5, as a business owner, time management, boundary setting and self discipline become hugely important to maintaining you physical and mental health. If you find yourself working late into the evenings or into weekends, it is an important indicator that something needs to change. I recommend for the next 4 weeks, get used to closing the laptop at a defined time, say 6PM every day. If things are not completed, leave them uncompleted, until the next day. There is always work to be done. It will be hard at first, however make it your goal. It will force you to prioritise your tasks more effectively. It will force you to delegate quicker. It will force you to ask for help and out source things. It will force you to say ‘NO’, until you have the resource capacity to say yes. I know many artists are free spirited, and are turned off by structure and discipline, however I guarantee these are vital life skills and the two can absolutely co-exist with careful planning. It’s all about finding the ‘levers’ in your business. How to turn the demand up, how to turn demand down. How to turn delivery capacity up, and how to turn it down.( Hire people or outsource) It all depends on what you want to achieve and the capacity your business has. Putting the prices up, as suggested by someone else, on custom items is a great way to buy you some thinking time. Or, place an item as ‘out of stock’ with a ‘notify me when in stock’ button and email people when you are ready to go again. Never feel guilty about turning away or deferring business. It is called good business management. Good luck to you both.
Snow already. :) And I love how your mom's cute dog always has to bring a shoe to share. Our dog used to always bring us something when we came home too (usually her favorite ball, or a sock).
Hello Jonna! I don’t know if you’ll see this but today, is a supremely happy day for me! You see, I am a young artist and I loveee making works. Recently I was actually offered money to recreate one of my pieces on a larger scale! (Generally I make portraits of people and I do a lot of surrealism in greyscale and pencil, on the realistic side. VERY different from Jonna’s work) This was an amazing thought to me and I began to practice a LOT. I have expanded into many many many styles and mediums since then and actually am learning the art of pottery! Art is my true passion, and it is so so rewarding to finish a piece. I have a few pieces that my parents thought were good enough to hang on our walls and I am so proud of those which are now framed and will be hung soon BUT I had never tried an abstract/modern painting. I drove to the art store and picked up a huge canvas and some pouring medium. Your work and the inspiration you took from nature was so inspiring to me! I had to try it! I live in Florida so I based my painting off something that has always struck inspiration to me, Hurricanes, and I studied a few of your techniques. My painting looks a lot different from yours, but I wasn’t trying to make it look like yours. I was just inspired by your love for this style, and I had to try it. And my parents loved it! They have hung it as a statement piece in our staircase! This is the first painting of mine that they have ever hung! I just wanted to say thank you, for pushing the boundaries of my art with a new style and medium and for making me a better artist!
Me thinking: Johan is really good in English. He is always finding the right words. You the next second: Johan do you know that a lot of people are impressed with your English because you always find the right words. !!! Jonna!! You read my mind! :) About the jewelry business, you have to close the orders and open it a little bit at a time sweetie (even if I am dying to buy the infinity earrings). Poor Johan is slaving away!! I am sure people will understand. All of us want you guys healthy and happy.
I discovered your channel only a few days ago and already I am feeling so much more peaceful and connected to our incredible planet. It really pains me when I see people not honoring the greatness of our environment. You are an angel Jonna!
I serendipitously discovered you via a RUclips video of you singing to the cows. I wanted to share that after watching a few of your videos, you have touched me, and inspired me. I am 64 years old, and have learned much, from just a few minutes of your videos. You are a blessed person, who is sharing your blessing with the world. Thank you, Jonna!
Ebay is awful when it comes to bids... sorry that happened to you, glad you sold it! it was beautiful! after your videos i always feel the creative side of me come to life!
The absolute skill with regard to filming and editing is so stunningly clear every single time I watch Jonna’s videos. I absolutely adore the life she’s been able to create and her willingness to share it with us. Truly beautiful!
Well I'd volunteer to be your personal assistant; I would cook real meals for you and live in a cabin near the woods, and in my freetime I would write short stories abour magical creatures living inthe forest and the lake^^ I love the drone flights and those elder gentlemen are hilarious! :D
Для меня вы-инопланетяне... Смотрю словно сказку. Какие у вас глаза чистые,как и природа Не наглядеться...спасибо за перевод. За умение радоваться,за улыбки...
Sometimes i wish i had your life .. but not all of us will find a way to earn money there .. also someone have to sacrifice and be a doctor , an engineer or a policeman .. to live a stressful life so that other people feel comfortable .. and we got you to make us relaxed and happy with this lovely vlogs 😁😍
Jonna speaks from her heart and inner beauty...I love that you share your life and give us decency, inspiration and glimpses of hope, it lifts our hearts as well. What a gift.
Your vlogs always bring me a down-to-earth, comforting, uplifting, and warm feeling. Even your honest sharing about not having time to cook proper healthy meals the past two(?) months and settling for pizzas, and the futile back and forth emailing to sell your painting via eBay - are not mundane but relatable for me. I went through a trying period recently of having to work from 9am to 3am continuously for a big project, which resulted in me catching a prolonged cough and cold as I was too consumed over my project's success and didn't make time to get enough sleep or eat 3 square meals properly. I also experienced what it felt like to spend a lot of time engaging some people through a dreaded unproductive process of finding solutions for something, only to get my desired outcome eventually within a short time through another totally unexpected source. So I really enjoy your beautiful sharing of these little snippets of your lives - yours and Johan's. 💕
These videos are saving me lots of therapy money haha thank god I found you Jonna! I send loving hugs to everyone who may be having a hard time right now, keep up 🤗😘❤
My mum died of coronavirus yesterday and my dad is fighting for his life. Please send a prayer for him. I'm in such a big and overwhelming pain. Por favor papá resiste e vive!
@@carinabrancodias I'm so sorry for your loss! You will overcome this terrible situation and come back stronger, I promise! Sending all my prayers to your dad 🙏 Stay strong!!! 💖
I’ve been subscribed to your channel for I believe a few years. Overtime, I forgot about it, as I grew to find more interests. I’m so glad I decided to go through the people I’m subscribed to. If not, I wouldn’t have found your channel again. I can sincerely say that I really enjoy your videos. They’re so calming, and inspiring. I’m glad you’re one of the people who are still using this platform for good. Another side note, from the time I was subscribed, all you posted were your kulning videos, which I enjoyed. At that specific time, I was quite young, and I still remember how I watched your videos several times trying to get my pitch right to sing along with you. You are such an inspiration, and I’m glad you veered off to different content, yet still managing to retain the original feel of your channel. Please, take time to rest. Both of you. You guys deserve to feel happy and healthy. Don’t push yourselves, and I know you’ll both enjoy your life. I enjoy watching it
What a horrible experience with ebay. It used to be good but since they don't allow sellers to leave "bad/truthful" reviews of buyers, buyers have free rein to bid but never pay! You 2 and Nanook with the shoes are so cute! Yay for whisky and I love your English x
I travel the world vicariously through videos on RUclips mostly. And I am fine with that, I have no urge to travel other-wise. These videos are some of the most delightful I've ever come across. I wish this couple continued happiness and bliss.
You both are so inspiring! I actually started learning swedish and it's always such a great feeling when I understand what your family is saying! ^^ Much love from Tyskland!
Two happy souls on a journey......together...creating beautiful things....taking care to wrap everything up with "kisses" on top of it all....And....that "grumpy old man' well....he was just a pinch of spice!
Your way of vlogging is outstanding...... Lovely couple...🌸💮🏵🌼🌹🌺🌳....Love watching beautiful sceneries of Sweden in your vlogs! Good bless....💕Love from Philippines...🇵🇭
Jonna, your life is an inspiration to me as an artist and photographer. I look forward to seeing your life progression because it’s SO INSPIRING! Much love xx💜
One of my favourite things about your videos is all the scenery you show. Sweden looks like such a beautiful, magical place! I also love what a sweet couple you two are. Even though you are both so busy and stressed right now, It seems like the two of you have a really beautiful life together :)
I think it’s amazing that the store experience integrates with the vlog and vice versa. On one hand, we can see the process of how paintings and jewelry are made, which adds immense value to them. On the other hand, whenever there is a delay in delivery, customers are able to understand why. In this way, trust and appreciation are always maintained and even reinforced. 💛
Another great vlog, your videos have such a positive and calmin effect it's hard to describe. So thank you for that to both of you, Nanook included of course. Two things I wanted to say, about the business. I myself am also an entrpreneur and only recently have I learned to say No occasionally. The thing is when your business starts to grow it feels good, money comes in. But once it starts to affect your health, your sleeping and eating habbits, your relationship - it's a sign you really need to hear and act on it. Limit your workload, limit your hunger for business, for clients, for money. You two are more important than any business success. Try to find a balance it is super important. Another thing I wanted to say, I was super happy to see your painting bid go above 10.000 USD and was so thrilled for you. How in the hell is eBay set up in this way that the bidders are not legally obliged to honour their bid. So pissed at this, I thought that the bidder HAS to pay what they bid. Frustrating and super annoying. So sorry you had to go through that rollercoaster ride. Any way keep up the good work both of you and looking forward to your next step ❤
Ash from "Lost in Europe" calls you two "some of the kindest people on the planet" and watching your videos I fully understand where he's coming from. You're such naturally beautiful people. Just watching you guys lifts my soul (and you, Jonna, being absolutely gorgeous has nothing to do with it whatsoever 😁) . 🙏🏽😌
I feel worried when I hear how much you both works in the days and how little time you get to take care of yourself. I really hope you find a balance of work and recovery soon and have time to make more healthy food as you wish to do. You are so much more important than you can imagine. Stress and too high demands can be done shortly, but it will not be good for a longer time. Take care 🙏🏻 Love and hugs to both of you ❤️❤️
When you asked Johan if you were bothering him and he immediately said no, my heart just melted. I am working my way back through your earlier vlogs and can see how your relationship and your business is evolving!
Oh my god.. my heart is melting when I'm watching you guys. Jonna.. you are like an angel and giving me hope and silent permission to be who I am.. and doing what my soul need..
I can tell you what you've been doing, You've been living your beautiful life in your beautiful forest in the north of Sweden, telling all of us all abou it and generally being a light of thought and caring. You are a wonderful person living a wonderful life. You give us a vision of a simpler, more beautiful life of self sufficiency and self reliance. Keep going, you wonderful people!!
Jonna you have the gift of the taste for life. In music, nature, interior design, food, voice, animals, relationship, arts: everything you touch, it becomes...white 🤣 and WONDERFUL! From every challenge you find a beautiful thing. I esteem you so much, great and sweet and strong example for us. Women. 🌹
Jonna, you are such an inspiration to us all and it hurts to see you and Johan going through so much for your craft. I've loved watching your journey on this channel as you become so successful yet still so humble. I want to offer you a suggestion that will allow your business to continue thriving while helping you reach the work-life balance that you and your husband so need right now. You are offering fine jewelry handcrafted by a Swedish artisan, don't undervalue that. You two need to create a balance between offering high quality art, while also taking care of your health. The best way to do that would be to raise prices on future orders, especially with products that are ordered most often. This will decrease the strain on you while giving you the chance to still offer the best you can without burning out. This will allow supply to meet demand. Hiring help is also an option, but that will take up front work that you may not be ready for right now. Raising prices can be done quickly, then when you get a chance to breathe (likely after the holidays), find an artist (or two) that can make the jewelry alongside Johan. You could even offer a sale at that time to have your orders ramp back up once you have production ready. This is just food-for-thought from one business person to another. I just want you and Johan to continue to have an amazing life together because you're such an inspiration. Much love from Seattle!
There is an old saying in America and it applies everywhere on this planet........"when quantity goes up quality goes down". Your attempts at trying to avoid this time tested universal principle of life will only result in pain. Keep it simple because you guys are on the right track as a young couple philosophically and spiritually speaking. Supply and demand you say......that only results in higher prices per article:) Someone once said that life is really an inside job. More and more people are learning and yearning to just be and to have faith and trust in Father.:) Try not to get caught up in the endless go go go in the end its simply not worth it. Keep the videos coming as the comments reveal you are touching many people from all around the world. A true and priceless gift.
I loved your uncle's response to the "words of wisdom to share" hahaha. 😂 Tell your uncle that we like him! 😁 On a side note, I must say I really like your white dresses! Where do you usually buy them? Is it in regular chain stores or places like Ebay or Etsy? 🙂
I know this is an older video, but I just wanted to say that I LOVE your videos. Your art is SO beautiful (your paintings, music and all the in between). You and your husband are such a beautiful couple together, and your soul just radiates beauty. It's like a warm spring day. Thank you for sharing your life with us all. 💜🥰
Please Take good care of your food...!🙏🏽 It’s is what keeps you going🍀 and healty ! Going like this ,fast food,is going down.. it takes the same time to put a broccoli in your pan,and make a nice salade with it.. then to do a fastfood meal.. And yes, We have our one business and we have a daughter,so i know how it goes.. the feeling is No Time,Always!! But Stop, Breath ,look,listen.. meditate for just 15 minutes ..and there you Make time to Eat healty food!! In 15 minutes you make a lovely and healty meal!! Take care you lovely people 🙏🏽💓💋
I ended up watching with tears trickling in my eyes, not sure why exactly, but something has moved me by watching the two of you in your world. I do look out for a new vlog now so I can keep up. I feel concerned that you're not eating good home cooking, and also I understand about the business concerns. I have a small business and am holding back from promoting myself because of that reason (I don't know how to grow successfully being only one person). I would suggest you need proper business advice and support to make the shift (as I do!). With love and blessings from Scotland xx ps it is only ten minutes to chop a lot of vegetables into a big pan with lentils and stock, then you just leave it for half an hour with a little stir now and again, and it will do for 2-3 days :) It's what I do x
Tara Teal omg the same thing happens to me🙏🙏🙏🙏 I think it's the authenticity and innocence the both have... In a plastic world they represent what we all dream of... Real
If you’re getting so many orders and you are too busy. Then it’s time to raise your prices. People love you, they want to support you, raise your prices so that the orders balance out, and you still have enough money to spend some time with each other. Good luck 🍀
Your videos are MY savior while cleaning! You have such a calming, inspiring presence. The second floor of your house looks exactly as I would expect you to decorate it, and I love the collection of white photography dresses.
I remember that when I had my own business (about 10 years ago!), I was always complaining that my stupid boss never gave me a day off. :-) You both need to be careful about your health, both physically and emotionally -- a steady diet of "work work work and work some more" can leave you exhausted physically, mentally, and emotionally. Please make sure you take the time for both of you to have "me time" alone and "together time" as a couple! (I would hate to see one of my favorite vloggers get sick or worse.)
I cannot tell you how much I enjoy your videos. I love the scenery, and watching the seasons change. The snow as you were walking home was so pretty. Do be careful and make sure you rest. Work will always be there.
your husband is so sweet, smiling and that warm look , he is really a good man!!! you are so lucky to have eachother!!! you look like models, magazine models! you are amazing!
Jonna. You have something about you that is so calming. Soothing. Maybe it's your voice or your angelic smile but I feel naturally calm and inspired and grateful. I have anxiety issues but when I watch you I'm truly inspired. I feel connected to nature. The way you live is how all of us are supposed to live. Keep doing what you do. Love from the hit tropical Sri Lanka. Lots of love. I'm binge watching all your videos xoxxoxoxox
A couple more adorable, old, ornery men! Your uncle is a HOOT!! I get such a kick out of his grumpy-ness and swearing! I guess they are the same in every country! Thanks for sharing! Get some rest and healthy food! ❤👣🌎🌈
You two are just precious Angels to share your life with all of us. Thank you for all your inspiration but, do take care of yourselves (most important to nuture each other). We love you❣️❣️❣️
From one business owner to another, there will never be enough time in the day to complete all the tasks at hand. The most important thing to remember is to take time for one and other and remember to breath.
I am from Russia, accidentally stumbled upon your vlog and do not cease to admire your courage, perseverance and love of nature. Now I’m waiting for each new release of Vlog)). I wish you success!
Please Jonna make time to eat properly. My body is diseased and ruined from not eating properly. I was not fed right as a child and as a young adult not taught how. Now 62 and because of thinking any old thing is OK so long as I'm fed has caused me much trouble. My bones from lack of nutrition are having diseases. My body can't fight off infections like it should. I have many health problems. I'm not going to go through all but I will tell you I have 7 problems and proper diet early could have done me like a miracle. Also if you fix your food and do it together to speed it up and finally sit and take your time to enjoy then your stress will nearly go completely away and your tension will evaporate and everything will get so much better. Really please. Eating right and taking time to use one hour start to finish. From when you get the pan out to when you wash the pan. It will add a sense of closeness and a satisfaction that only the family meal can do. I know you don't have time but some of our greatest founding families of America have done biographies of each family and the one single thing they all had in common was that they always sat down and took their meals together. And cared enough to see that it was done every day. God bless you both and God give peace and calm into your home. Both of you looked very tired. A good meal, a snuggle and a nap does a body good.

If your having an anxious depressed stretch of life watch Jonna. Her videos are better then any antidepressant pill I could take. She makes me genuinely smile and I havent done that in so long.
Erin Toal very very true
Oh, my dear Erin. How wonderful to acknowledge that reason to smile. Xxxx
Speak it sister!

Johan has the sweetest eyes and a beautiful smile! The way he looks at Jonna is pure love!! So beautiful!!!
Because who on earth will not get inlove with Jonna? Even I as a straight girl just over a week knowing her is so inlove with her and just happy watching her videos.
@@summerbear93 absolutly true. Just a perfect Soul.
Yeah… Beautiful eyes to watch the/her beautiful world ….. ❤️
I do agree!!! ❤️
Two beautiful young people, may I offer some advice. Your health (physical, emotional, mental) is your greatest need and your first priority. Slow down, eat healthy food, exercise, stretch, relax, sleep, do this everyday (each is 24 hours long, write it out on paper) and work no more than six days take the seventh for each other. If you don't your health (your selves) and relationship (each other) will suffer and degrade (weight gain, high blood pressure and hurt feelings). People love your handicraft and they will wait for it patiently if you only give them their number in the que and your reasonable pace. Stick to your decisions some will attempt to persuade you with more money and not deliver said payment. You may lose up to 10% of your customers but gain your sanity, health, contentment of your love for each other. The later is what truly matters. I offer my blessings to you both.
You said it so much better than I did. And I totally agree.
Very good advice Cliff, I do hope they take it to heart. They have such beautiful souls, it will be sooooo sad to see the business of life will destroy them.
What a nice comment, Cliff
Ohhhh geez yes I recognize myself so much in them and their work load and enthusiasm, and yes I totally agree with you! More time for rest, love and fun! I'm sure that both mine, and their, customers are totally fine waiting for their jewelry a little bit longer
Sage advice!
I've just realized why people buy art. They want a piece of the artist...of their energy, love, care. That's what I think. That's why handmade things are so beautiful and feel so good to wear or look at. I really didn't understand it before..now, seeing all you put into your work, I really feel that each thing you create is special and worth the money you ask for it.
Absolutely
Dear Jonna,
I've been facing some old demons again and some humans tried to drag me down for the past months.
Your videos are medicine and a bliss for my soul and mind. I am so much in love with them... they keep me company, they inspire me, they make me happy.
Thank god I've found your precious channel.
Now, I haven't watched this video yet, as I quickly want to cook something and THEN I fully want to enjoy your video :)
Lot's of love!
Soley
Soley, that's happening the same to me too☺️.
Jonna is simply purely magic!
Solely, sending you peace love & light! 🤗
Hugs to you! I feel the same way about watching the videos. I'm uplifted by them. Soley, you are loved and all is well.
💛🌸💛🌸💛🌸
dear Soley, very good channel here for you on youtube checkout; sadhguru.
Please make more singing vídeos. I play your singing vídeos for my daughter and my autistic son to help them sleep. We as a family love your voice! Please!
Just a small observation: if you have so many orders that you can hardly cope, you need to raise your prices. It's simple corporate finance: if supply is lower than demand, prices will increase. But you can also use price to regulate demand: a higher price will lower demand. And if demand is too low, you can lower your prices.
The above is true for most things, but for some items (most likely those that are seen as luxurious) the opposite is true: if an "expensive" perfume is too cheap, less people will want to buy it. If the price is high (enough) more people will buy it. Whether or not your jewellery falls into this category is something you should probably find out, to adjust your products and prices accordingly.
And just a final note: don't _ever_ compete with price as your unique selling point. If you must, you can lower your prices, but it is better to use a higher quality (possibly purer silver, or more unique designs or whatever it takes to stand out from the crowd) to compete. I think it is better to have low sales volume (in number of things sold) at a higher price than more sale volume (more items sold) at a lower price, even if your profit in both cases is the same.
Great advice! Really interesting reading this and I agree 👌🏼
Hi
Superb business wisdom and all true!🙂 Great economics advice summed up in three paragraphs!
This totally makes sense. I'm so glad I decided to take AP Microeconomics, it's so useful and I'm so glad I can understand economic concepts a whole lot better now.
Is common sense..
Great Uncle Tage is an awesome character - old folks are such authentic, well defined personalities.
If you don´t feel great, go and watch Jonna Jinton Vlogs. This lifts up your mood
I know how you guys feel about having no time and only time for work ... just wait till you have your bussiness as well as children then you will look back and think you had plenty of time and enough sleep . Its hard to fathom. 😉🤗😥 but worth every minute!
Soooo true 💛❤️ thanks for the video’s
OMG .. helping to tie the painting and then a sweet kiss over it ... I’m melting from the love. Thank you for sharing your life a bit with the world. Kindness matters. Much love 💕🐝
From one business owner to another... Oh dear Jonna... You and Johan look so so tired :(
I know exactly what you mean when the pressure of your business is more than you can control. The pressure of only being one person can be too much. You are beautiful and have given the world such a gift.
Take advice from me. I ended up letting my business consume me. My mental health began to suffer and I ended up in the hospital.
The elders talk badly about the technology for a reason.. I am coming to understand about their knowledge.
We are humans, not robots, and we must unplug and sleep, rest, and take care of ourselves first.
I just love you Jonna! Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world.
But you & Johan do yourselves a big favor and rest. Take a break. Enjoy the new cottage and dissappear for awhile. I hope you both are truly enjoying your life and not too busy recording it, you get lost. I am a professional photographer and know EXACTLY how that can be.
Blessings & love to you!!
Heather Michelle especially sensitive artists need lots of rest!!!
Another business owner here...thank you for being honest about taking care of our inner selves. Peace
Another business owner here too, Heather, such good advice
Such great and caring advice 🏵🌹🌼
I'm so happy that RUclips suggested your channel. Everything about you is SO inspiring 💙
Laura Hosoi ❤️
I'm so so glad you've started vlogging this much, I truly look forward to every one of your videos
Thank you SO very much! ♥️
@Josh D Do u think he makes the impression that he doesn't like vlogging?
@Josh D 🙂 oh, I understand
And yes, I'm having an awesome day.
Hope u do too (:
I'm loving the uncle. Makes me laugh as soon as I see him. Legend
Ha Ha Ha! Yes he swears 50% of what he is saying.... he doesnt seem to be especially impressed about the camera / Kram från Dalarna
This vlog made me feel sad for you. I know you are doing what you love, but at the same time there is so much demand for what you create that it has taken over your life. I am glad to see you are still making time to take lovely walks. Remember to stop and take those walks, rest, and create your own time. There will always be such a demand for both of you and what you do, but if you try to do so much it will loose its magic. Do what you can do and then make time for yourselves, because that is the most important element to your work! Sending you both light and happiness!!
I think that they are having "their time" while they are working in what they love. People don't use to understand that when you do what you really love you are always having "your time" and even vacations have another meaning. It is a "pleasurable tiredness", because you know that this is the price that you have to pay to receive all the abundance that the universe is rewarding you with. Their business is growing, because that is part of their amazing energy and hard work. This is part of the process, a caothic moment, but I am sure that they will manage it with grace... Maybe hiring other people to help them. I wish all the luck and happiness for you two, Jonna and Johan.
As a third-generation-born Swedish-American - I'm half Swedish - I very much enjoy watching your vlogs and learning about daily life in the north of Sweden. While I've never been to Sweden, I feel connected to the landscape and culture through your videos. Thank you for sharing with us!
A beam of light to a gloomy day. The Jonna Jinton magic vlog.
Johan really seems like her soulmate. I legitimately can't imagine anyone more perfect for her. They're both different and as such, great complements to the other.
Jonna, I really have to say big massive thank you.
At this days I have so much struggles and bad situations in my life that really tearing me apart.
But your vlogs, your videos, they are just calming me down. I`m crying and watching this at the same time.
Seeing how beautiful world is, how colorfull peoples exist, makes me feel less alone, less weak.
Tack, Jonna!❤️
Awww
😢❤😀🌎👣🌈🌼🍄🎵🌲🐾🙋
azalea scarlet tell me about it! Jonna is a gift from heaven. If I’m feeling sad, I just watch one of her videos and I feel lighter. OR sometimes I just start crying because her beautiful life and energy touches me.
Yes!
Jonna is the cure (if i can say like that), the miracle, the light.
She makes me feel motivated.
I`m so glad what we can see her through this wideos. :)
Thank you Jonna and Johan and Nanuk... For everything.. You Are inspiring me so much.. You're giving me strength to believe in a better world and to believe I can finally start my own business with what I'm so good at and don't know why I didn't have he courage to put out til now, as a creative person... Lack of self esteem I'd say.. I hope someday I will be able to thrive on it as you do.. I feel like you're my sister even if I don't know you for real.. Because the relationship we have with nature is that of getting goosebumps and shiver when we see even a tree with the wind passing through its leafs... I love you guys.. Keep spreading love in a world so desperate for just love truth and compassion. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
I believe in you, Cristina!!! ♡♡♡
" go to hell with that camera, and damn shit" 😅😅😅 your Grandpa is brilliant. Lovely to see you 2 successful, make hay while the sun shines as they say...
Everybody loves you.. Including meeeee and my dog Lotty.
I love all the work to do..
P. S. Always find time to cook sit and eat.
I was a potter for over 40 years, I understand what are you talking about. Sometimes you have to make your own choice, what is the most important things in your life. In the 40 years of professional potter I did 22 years of very hard work from morning to late night 7 days of the week. The rest of the 40 years I decided what is more important for me, I had some time I took it more slowly. Now I’m retired, but not 100%, when you are an artist you can’t really retire from your craft. I just play with Arts and Crafts and enjoy it. In the end I’m very happy how I did my life, I had everything, very hard work and enjoyment too in my professional life. My craft was my life, now it is a part of my life.
The most important thing I can advise to you, you the one has to be happy with your life what ever you do.
Sometimes we are not happy, disappointed, tired. Search in your life for good things it doesn’t have to be big, things around you, a bird sound, cloud, a beautiful object, it will change your mood and help you to move on. 🦋🌸🐝🌞
Jonna I feel like there is a part of me in you. When I see you happy I feel happy too. It's difficult to measure someone's love but when I say I send you lots and lots of love ,take it as 100 times more. Wish you and your guy all the very best in your life 😘😘😘
Right so.😊
I just remember that
She bumped into my life soon after mum passed away.. no coincidence!!!! She is a true healer through art xxx
I suggest you and Johan should demand higher prices for your art, so you don´t have to work so much and still make a good living. I think that people will buy your art anyway, even if they have to pay more and wait longer for the delivery. Please take good care of yourselves and don´t stress yourself too much. You are both so precious.
she seems to care about keeping things accessible for everyone. I agree that we don't want to see them burn out but maybe the better way is to just have moratoriums on orders periodically to give them breathing room. Not pricing people out. Those of us who want to treasure their stuff, we'll wait our turn ...
For real, I would like Jonna’s painting. Because she gives off magical vibes and she transfers it to her paintings and i fuck w that
Ihr bedankt euch immer so nett für's Zuschauen, doch würde das ja niemand tun, ohne euch 🙃
Also sage ich mal, vielen Dank dafür, dass es euch beiden gibt und dass ihr uns an eurem Weg teilhaben lasst🙏🏻 Ihr seid so wundervoll liebevoll und aufrichtig, einfach großartig🙏🏻
Ich wünsche mir mehr Menschen wie euch, denn ihr tragt Hoffnung und Frieden in die Welt 🙃❤️🙏🏻
Gorgeous drone footages! I'm glad your business is booming and that your painting has found a new home. I hope you find balance somehow, don't ruin your health for business. Have a nice weekend!
I am watching the videos retroactively. This one has reminded me that I can work hard, have an "out of balance" life and still find joy in my journey. Thank you Joanna and Johan ❤
Jonna I really like your and Johan's work, but you need to take it easy. I know you love what you're doing, but when you have busy months and don't have time to cook or eat, it's not good. You're like all the city people that are always busy, you're just busy in the countryside, but in the same way. Don't let it burn you out. If Johan has too many orders, just close the possibility to order things, just for some time. I don't know if you are so busy because you need the money or because you want to make all people happy, but it's taking a toll on you. I wish you all the best
Jonna, firstly may I congratulate you on gaining the audience you have, and managing to make a living from your passion.
I write this message to both you and Johan, as I think it is equally relevant.
As a business owner, I can relate to the challenges you are facing as you grow. Whether one is prepared for that business growth, or not.
When you love what you do, it is very easy to get caught up in work. After all, you enjoy it.
However, it’s important to remember that running a business, just like life, is a marathon, not a sprint.
While i understand you left the city to escape the typical 9-5, as a business owner, time management, boundary setting and self discipline become hugely important to maintaining you physical and mental health.
If you find yourself working late into the evenings or into weekends, it is an important indicator that something needs to change.
I recommend for the next 4 weeks, get used to closing the laptop at a defined time, say 6PM every day.
If things are not completed, leave them uncompleted, until the next day. There is always work to be done.
It will be hard at first, however make it your goal.
It will force you to prioritise your tasks more effectively. It will force you to delegate quicker. It will force you to ask for help and out source things. It will force you to say ‘NO’, until you have the resource capacity to say yes.
I know many artists are free spirited, and are turned off by structure and discipline, however I guarantee these are vital life skills and the two can absolutely co-exist with careful planning.
It’s all about finding the ‘levers’ in your business. How to turn the demand up, how to turn demand down.
How to turn delivery capacity up, and how to turn it down.( Hire people or outsource)
It all depends on what you want to achieve and the capacity your business has.
Putting the prices up, as suggested by someone else, on custom items is a great way to buy you some thinking time. Or, place an item as ‘out of stock’ with a ‘notify me when in stock’ button and email
people when you are ready to go again.
Never feel guilty about turning away or deferring business. It is called good business management.
Good luck to you both.
Snow already. :) And I love how your mom's cute dog always has to bring a shoe to share. Our dog used to always bring us something when we came home too (usually her favorite ball, or a sock).
Hello Jonna! I don’t know if you’ll see this but today, is a supremely happy day for me! You see, I am a young artist and I loveee making works. Recently I was actually offered money to recreate one of my pieces on a larger scale! (Generally I make portraits of people and I do a lot of surrealism in greyscale and pencil, on the realistic side. VERY different from Jonna’s work) This was an amazing thought to me and I began to practice a LOT. I have expanded into many many many styles and mediums since then and actually am learning the art of pottery! Art is my true passion, and it is so so rewarding to finish a piece. I have a few pieces that my parents thought were good enough to hang on our walls and I am so proud of those which are now framed and will be hung soon BUT I had never tried an abstract/modern painting. I drove to the art store and picked up a huge canvas and some pouring medium. Your work and the inspiration you took from nature was so inspiring to me! I had to try it! I live in Florida so I based my painting off something that has always struck inspiration to me, Hurricanes, and I studied a few of your techniques. My painting looks a lot different from yours, but I wasn’t trying to make it look like yours. I was just inspired by your love for this style, and I had to try it. And my parents loved it! They have hung it as a statement piece in our staircase! This is the first painting of mine that they have ever hung! I just wanted to say thank you, for pushing the boundaries of my art with a new style and medium and for making me a better artist!
Me thinking: Johan is really good in English. He is always finding the right words.
You the next second: Johan do you know that a lot of people are impressed with your English because you always find the right words.
!!! Jonna!! You read my mind! :)
About the jewelry business, you have to close the orders and open it a little bit at a time sweetie (even if I am dying to buy the infinity earrings). Poor Johan is slaving away!! I am sure people will understand. All of us want you guys healthy and happy.
That's maybe a good idea - open the orderings during like a week or two at a time and in that way get better control over the demand?
So sweet to see Johan talking more bit by bit! You two are perfect!
You two are such humble and down-to-earth souls
That's why I love Yonna - because she's so creative and she doesn't stay out of work even for a minute.
Thank you Joanna. Your videos help me to feel more present in my life. More grounded. Much love heading your way. 😊
I discovered your channel only a few days ago and already I am feeling so much more peaceful and connected to our incredible planet. It really pains me when I see people not honoring the greatness of our environment. You are an angel Jonna!
Stress seems to melt away watching these videos. Good vibes and energy. Thank you for this.
I serendipitously discovered you via a RUclips video of you singing to the cows. I wanted to share that after watching a few of your videos, you have touched me, and inspired me. I am 64 years old, and have learned much, from just a few minutes of your videos. You are a blessed person, who is sharing your blessing with the world. Thank you, Jonna!
Ebay is awful when it comes to bids... sorry that happened to you, glad you sold it! it was beautiful! after your videos i always feel the creative side of me come to life!
The absolute skill with regard to filming and editing is so stunningly clear every single time I watch Jonna’s videos. I absolutely adore the life she’s been able to create and her willingness to share it with us. Truly beautiful!
Well I'd volunteer to be your personal assistant; I would cook real meals for you and live in a cabin near the woods, and in my freetime I would write short stories abour magical creatures living inthe forest and the lake^^
I love the drone flights and those elder gentlemen are hilarious! :D
I also volunteer Haha.
Me too 😂💕
me too
I was thinking this as well. 💕
@Ailes your comment made my day thanks
Для меня вы-инопланетяне...
Смотрю словно сказку.
Какие у вас глаза чистые,как и природа
Не наглядеться...спасибо за перевод.
За умение радоваться,за улыбки...
Sometimes i wish i had your life .. but not all of us will find a way to earn money there .. also someone have to sacrifice and be a doctor , an engineer or a policeman .. to live a stressful life so that other people feel comfortable .. and we got you to make us relaxed and happy with this lovely vlogs 😁😍
Jonna speaks from her heart and inner beauty...I love that you share your life and give us decency, inspiration and glimpses of hope, it lifts our hearts as well. What a gift.
Your vlogs always bring me a down-to-earth, comforting, uplifting, and warm feeling. Even your honest sharing about not having time to cook proper healthy meals the past two(?) months and settling for pizzas, and the futile back and forth emailing to sell your painting via eBay - are not mundane but relatable for me. I went through a trying period recently of having to work from 9am to 3am continuously for a big project, which resulted in me catching a prolonged cough and cold as I was too consumed over my project's success and didn't make time to get enough sleep or eat 3 square meals properly. I also experienced what it felt like to spend a lot of time engaging some people through a dreaded unproductive process of finding solutions for something, only to get my desired outcome eventually within a short time through another totally unexpected source. So I really enjoy your beautiful sharing of these little snippets of your lives - yours and Johan's. 💕
Спасибо за русские субтитры, вас приятно смотреть и слушать)
Да, тоже по субтитрам читаю)
Всяко лучше чем наши горе блогеры
These videos are saving me lots of therapy money haha thank god I found you Jonna! I send loving hugs to everyone who may be having a hard time right now, keep up 🤗😘❤
My mum died of coronavirus yesterday and my dad is fighting for his life. Please send a prayer for him. I'm in such a big and overwhelming pain. Por favor papá resiste e vive!
@@carinabrancodias I'm so sorry for your loss! You will overcome this terrible situation and come back stronger, I promise! Sending all my prayers to your dad 🙏 Stay strong!!! 💖
I’ve been subscribed to your channel for I believe a few years. Overtime, I forgot about it, as I grew to find more interests. I’m so glad I decided to go through the people I’m subscribed to. If not, I wouldn’t have found your channel again. I can sincerely say that I really enjoy your videos. They’re so calming, and inspiring. I’m glad you’re one of the people who are still using this platform for good.
Another side note, from the time I was subscribed, all you posted were your kulning videos, which I enjoyed. At that specific time, I was quite young, and I still remember how I watched your videos several times trying to get my pitch right to sing along with you. You are such an inspiration, and I’m glad you veered off to different content, yet still managing to retain the original feel of your channel. Please, take time to rest. Both of you. You guys deserve to feel happy and healthy. Don’t push yourselves, and I know you’ll both enjoy your life. I enjoy watching it
What a horrible experience with ebay. It used to be good but since they don't allow sellers to leave "bad/truthful" reviews of buyers, buyers have free rein to bid but never pay!
You 2 and Nanook with the shoes are so cute! Yay for whisky and I love your English x
Ebay gives you the option to go to the next bidder , and the next and the next
@@y.peffle2802 yes, too bad if non of them are serious as Jonna found out.
I travel the world vicariously through videos on RUclips mostly. And I am fine with that, I have no urge to travel other-wise. These videos are some of the most delightful I've ever come across. I wish this couple continued happiness and bliss.
You both are so inspiring! I actually started learning swedish and it's always such a great feeling when I understand what your family is saying! ^^ Much love from Tyskland!
Две прекрасные пчелки 🐝😊 Вы вдохновляете на жизнь и движение 🌿 Спасибо за русские субтитры, я вас обожаю ❤️
Two happy souls on a journey......together...creating beautiful things....taking care to wrap everything up with "kisses" on top of it all....And....that "grumpy old man' well....he was just a pinch of spice!
Sven and Olaf are both character from "frozen" u can't convince me the Disney movie wasn't based off this woman
Your way of vlogging is outstanding...... Lovely couple...🌸💮🏵🌼🌹🌺🌳....Love watching beautiful sceneries of Sweden in your vlogs! Good bless....💕Love from Philippines...🇵🇭
Thank you SO much ❤️
Your husband has the most beautiful eyes, they're like blue diamonds 💛
Both of them have eyes that resemble .... mmmmm ice crystals. I never liked the saying her eyes were cold as ice. Ice blue eyes mesmerize me.
So true...
Jonna, your life is an inspiration to me as an artist and photographer. I look forward to seeing your life progression because it’s SO INSPIRING! Much love xx💜
Beautiful, precious people. The scenery is breathtaking. I have coffee every morning to these videos. I just love them.
One of my favourite things about your videos is all the scenery you show. Sweden looks like such a beautiful, magical place! I also love what a sweet couple you two are. Even though you are both so busy and stressed right now, It seems like the two of you have a really beautiful life together :)
I think it’s amazing that the store experience integrates with the vlog and vice versa.
On one hand, we can see the process of how paintings and jewelry are made, which adds immense value to them.
On the other hand, whenever there is a delay in delivery, customers are able to understand why.
In this way, trust and appreciation are always maintained and even reinforced. 💛
Another great vlog, your videos have such a positive and calmin effect it's hard to describe. So thank you for that to both of you, Nanook included of course. Two things I wanted to say, about the business. I myself am also an entrpreneur and only recently have I learned to say No occasionally. The thing is when your business starts to grow it feels good, money comes in. But once it starts to affect your health, your sleeping and eating habbits, your relationship - it's a sign you really need to hear and act on it. Limit your workload, limit your hunger for business, for clients, for money. You two are more important than any business success. Try to find a balance it is super important. Another thing I wanted to say, I was super happy to see your painting bid go above 10.000 USD and was so thrilled for you. How in the hell is eBay set up in this way that the bidders are not legally obliged to honour their bid. So pissed at this, I thought that the bidder HAS to pay what they bid. Frustrating and super annoying. So sorry you had to go through that rollercoaster ride. Any way keep up the good work both of you and looking forward to your next step ❤
Ash from "Lost in Europe" calls you two "some of the kindest people on the planet" and watching your videos I fully understand where he's coming from. You're such naturally beautiful people. Just watching you guys lifts my soul (and you, Jonna, being absolutely gorgeous has nothing to do with it whatsoever 😁) . 🙏🏽😌
The painting is exquisite, I am sure the new owners will love it💙
I feel worried when I hear how much you both works in the days and how little time you get to take care of yourself. I really hope you find a balance of work and recovery soon and have time to make more healthy food as you wish to do. You are so much more important than you can imagine.
Stress and too high demands can be done shortly, but it will not be good for a longer time. Take care 🙏🏻
Love and hugs to both of you ❤️❤️
I feel like she is my friend, I love seeing her happy!
When you asked Johan if you were bothering him and he immediately said no, my heart just melted. I am working my way back through your earlier vlogs and can see how your relationship and your business is evolving!
Aww, that little kiss shared over the painting...beautiful.! 🤍
Oh my god.. my heart is melting when I'm watching you guys. Jonna.. you are like an angel and giving me hope and silent permission to be who I am.. and doing what my soul need..
Even watching her wrap a painting is beautiful!
I can tell you what you've been doing, You've been living your beautiful life in your beautiful forest in the north of Sweden, telling all of us all abou it and generally being a light of thought and caring. You are a wonderful person living a wonderful life. You give us a vision of a simpler, more beautiful life of self sufficiency and self reliance. Keep going, you wonderful people!!
Jonna you have the gift of the taste for life. In music, nature, interior design, food, voice, animals, relationship, arts: everything you touch, it becomes...white 🤣 and WONDERFUL!
From every challenge you find a beautiful thing.
I esteem you so much, great and sweet and strong example for us. Women. 🌹
Jonna, you are such an inspiration to us all and it hurts to see you and Johan going through so much for your craft. I've loved watching your journey on this channel as you become so successful yet still so humble. I want to offer you a suggestion that will allow your business to continue thriving while helping you reach the work-life balance that you and your husband so need right now.
You are offering fine jewelry handcrafted by a Swedish artisan, don't undervalue that. You two need to create a balance between offering high quality art, while also taking care of your health. The best way to do that would be to raise prices on future orders, especially with products that are ordered most often. This will decrease the strain on you while giving you the chance to still offer the best you can without burning out. This will allow supply to meet demand.
Hiring help is also an option, but that will take up front work that you may not be ready for right now. Raising prices can be done quickly, then when you get a chance to breathe (likely after the holidays), find an artist (or two) that can make the jewelry alongside Johan. You could even offer a sale at that time to have your orders ramp back up once you have production ready.
This is just food-for-thought from one business person to another. I just want you and Johan to continue to have an amazing life together because you're such an inspiration. Much love from Seattle!
There is an old saying in America and it applies everywhere on this planet........"when quantity goes up quality goes down". Your attempts at trying to avoid this time tested universal principle of life will only result in pain. Keep it simple because you guys are on the right track as a young couple philosophically and spiritually speaking. Supply and demand you say......that only results in higher prices per article:) Someone once said that life is really an inside job. More and more people are learning and yearning to just be and to have faith and trust in Father.:) Try not to get caught up in the endless go go go in the end its simply not worth it. Keep the videos coming as the comments reveal you are touching many people from all around the world. A true and priceless gift.
this is how everyone should live on this planet..not in big cities and full of stress. Jonna keep doing this wonderful life purpose you have
I loved your uncle's response to the "words of wisdom to share" hahaha. 😂 Tell your uncle that we like him! 😁
On a side note, I must say I really like your white dresses! Where do you usually buy them? Is it in regular chain stores or places like Ebay or Etsy? 🙂
I know this is an older video, but I just wanted to say that I LOVE your videos.
Your art is SO beautiful (your paintings, music and all the in between). You and your husband are such a beautiful couple together, and your soul just radiates beauty. It's like a warm spring day. Thank you for sharing your life with us all. 💜🥰
He loves her so much😭
And at some shots, he gotta hold his self from kissing her! I can see tht boy..LOL
So nice to see all 3 generations and how close your family is. It is so amazing that you both found eachother in this bad world.

I ended up watching with tears trickling in my eyes, not sure why exactly, but something has moved me by watching the two of you in your world. I do look out for a new vlog now so I can keep up. I feel concerned that you're not eating good home cooking, and also I understand about the business concerns. I have a small business and am holding back from promoting myself because of that reason (I don't know how to grow successfully being only one person). I would suggest you need proper business advice and support to make the shift (as I do!). With love and blessings from Scotland xx ps it is only ten minutes to chop a lot of vegetables into a big pan with lentils and stock, then you just leave it for half an hour with a little stir now and again, and it will do for 2-3 days :) It's what I do x
Tara Teal “I ended up watching With tears trickling in my eyes, not sure why”.. I did the same..
Tara Teal omg the same thing happens to me🙏🙏🙏🙏 I think it's the authenticity and innocence the both have... In a plastic world they represent what we all dream of... Real

If you’re getting so many orders and you are too busy. Then it’s time to raise your prices. People love you, they want to support you, raise your prices so that the orders balance out, and you still have enough money to spend some time with each other. Good luck 🍀
You are truly an amazing person. For the first time in my life I admire someone so much. Keep inspiring the world with your life and work :)
Your videos are MY savior while cleaning! You have such a calming, inspiring presence. The second floor of your house looks exactly as I would expect you to decorate it, and I love the collection of white photography dresses.
I remember that when I had my own business (about 10 years ago!), I was always complaining that my stupid boss never gave me a day off. :-) You both need to be careful about your health, both physically and emotionally -- a steady diet of "work work work and work some more" can leave you exhausted physically, mentally, and emotionally. Please make sure you take the time for both of you to have "me time" alone and "together time" as a couple! (I would hate to see one of my favorite vloggers get sick or worse.)
I cannot tell you how much I enjoy your videos. I love the scenery, and watching the seasons change. The snow as you were walking home was so pretty. Do be careful and make sure you rest. Work will always be there.
Your vibration makes me calm and peaceful. thanks for your being.Beautiful Soul

You and your husband really move my heart ♥️ you are so loving people!
Thank you So much for your beautiful presence on RUclips 🙏🏽
Just when you have to many orders to cope with, make the price higher per piece: less orders, same money. Byebye xxx
your husband is so sweet, smiling and that warm look , he is really a good man!!! you are so lucky to have eachother!!! you look like models, magazine models! you are amazing!
Thank you for being such an inspiration and a roll model
Jonna. You have something about you that is so calming. Soothing. Maybe it's your voice or your angelic smile but I feel naturally calm and inspired and grateful. I have anxiety issues but when I watch you I'm truly inspired. I feel connected to nature. The way you live is how all of us are supposed to live. Keep doing what you do. Love from the hit tropical Sri Lanka. Lots of love. I'm binge watching all your videos xoxxoxoxox
A couple more adorable, old, ornery men! Your uncle is a HOOT!! I get such a kick out of his grumpy-ness and swearing! I guess they are the same in every country! Thanks for sharing! Get some rest and healthy food! ❤👣🌎🌈
You two are just precious Angels to share your life with all of us. Thank you for all your inspiration but, do take care of yourselves (most important to nuture each other). We love you❣️❣️❣️
Wow Jonna, I'm very glad for all success that you and Johan has!
From Chile the best wishes to you guys !
From one business owner to another, there will never be enough time in the day to complete all the tasks at hand. The most important thing to remember is to take time for one and other and remember to breath.
I am a new follower.. how perfectly lovely are you ❤️
Be continually happy ... big enormous hug to you both !
I am from Russia, accidentally stumbled upon your vlog and do not cease to admire your courage, perseverance and love of nature. Now I’m waiting for each new release of Vlog)). I wish you success!
Please Jonna make time to eat properly. My body is diseased and ruined from not eating properly. I was not fed right as a child and as a young adult not taught how. Now 62 and because of thinking any old thing is OK so long as I'm fed has caused me much trouble. My bones from lack of nutrition are having diseases. My body can't fight off infections like it should. I have many health problems. I'm not going to go through all but I will tell you I have 7 problems and proper diet early could have done me like a miracle. Also if you fix your food and do it together to speed it up and finally sit and take your time to enjoy then your stress will nearly go completely away and your tension will evaporate and everything will get so much better. Really please. Eating right and taking time to use one hour start to finish. From when you get the pan out to when you wash the pan. It will add a sense of closeness and a satisfaction that only the family meal can do. I know you don't have time but some of our greatest founding families of America have done biographies of each family and the one single thing they all had in common was that they always sat down and took their meals together. And cared enough to see that it was done every day. God bless you both and God give peace and calm into your home. Both of you looked very tired. A good meal, a snuggle and a nap does a body good.
