I live in an old Danish farm house built in 1862 in the south Jutland countryside. This door is in the oldest part of the house. I doubt it goes back as far as 1862, but it is quite old. I decided to give it a facelift by decorating it in traditional Nordic rosemaling style. I worked freehand without using a pattern, so the design isn’t symmetrical at all. But then again it kinda fits to this beloved old wonky home of ours!
Well done. As someone who rosemales, I really like your interpretation. How wonderful to live in an old house in Denmark. Do you know its history?

Thank you for the kind comment. I only know that the house has been a farmhouse which has included pig farming. The house is from 1862.

A great year. That was the year my own great grandfather was born in Skarrild Denmark before he later immigrated to Australia!
