How to heal your life in a hands-on practical way
Amazon.com: Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2017
What a lovely book! Reading it made me feel like I was there in Ms Loomer’s cosy greenhouse tucked in the corner of a lush garden full of flowers. The history of how she came to have it is touching. If you want to understand how to bring hygge into your life, read this book and you will know. The photos are beautifully done, somehow spectacular yet quietly understated at the same time, perfectly balanced. The text is one woman’s journey, and is filled with things we can all use in our own lives to make them better lives – this is what books are supposed to be for, sharing, growing, connecting as people.
 
 
Beautiful and Original

“Greenhouse Hygge” is a treasure! Lise-Lotte’s beautiful and original book approaches hygge from outside. Authentic and generous, we are allowed a peak into what it looks like to create a strong sense of place for family and friends and sometimes solitude. Through gorgeous photos and narrative, she inspires us to create our own hygge in our greenhouses, patios or balconies. This book should be on everyone’s gift list!
 
Truly inspiring

Greenhouse Hygge is truly inspiring. It allows the reader to learn about Lise-Lotte and how she has incorporated hygge in her life, while at the same time inspiring the reader to reflect on their own lifestyle and create an environment for themselves, and those around them, that is their own hygge. It shows how hygge can be found through nature and memories, and that a greenhouse can be the perfect setting if you put plenty of thought and love into it, just as Lise-Lotte has done. This is a book, and story, that can be read again and again while still finding new inspiration each time. The writing draws the reader in, and the pictures are so beautiful that you could spend hours looking at each one.

This is a beautiful book filled with gorgeous photos and inspiration.
It’s a book about “hygge” and how to create this special space and atmosphere in a green house in the garden. The book tells you how to, step by step, along with wonderful stories, great recipes, tips and inspiration to create hygge in and around the greenhouse. It’s lovely to see how the space is being used in so many ways, not just for potting plants, but for drinking tea, sipping wine, reading the paper or a great book. Sounds like the perfect place to recharge and reflect. All I want now is a greenhouse 🙂
 
An inspirational and moving book

Amazon.ca: Reviewed in Canada on March 5, 2017

Greenhouse Hygge shows us what it means when you create the feeling of Hygge in your garden. This book interleaves the story of how she came to have her mother’s old greenhouse with the practical elements of creating a peaceful place in the garden. The beautiful photography captures the feeling conveyed in the narrative. At once inspirational and moving, one comes to understand the true meaning of Hygge as Lise-Lotte shares a very personal story with us. This is not an instruction book. Through the beautiful narrative we come to understand that there is no recipe for Hygge, although there is one for some very nice cookies.
