At the top we see the blue mountains, a wide sky and a small brown-gray shieling which was often shared by several farms. The girls was working diligently and produced many of the milk products for the year. Over the open hearth, among other things, whey-cheese was cooked in the large iron pot. Chrispbread, was hung on rods under the ceiling. The beautiful wooden spoons were made by the men but mostly used by the women in their daily chores. The farm's own cheese was made in cheese molds with beautiful patterns inside. The beloved coffee, which was banned four times between the years 1720-1822, was grinded on a simple coffee grinder. They milked their cows in wooden buckets. The balance scales and weights were used to weigh everything from different types of food to the yarn from which all their clothes were made. Making branch-candles by dipping was not easy, but the most skilled casters managed. Heckling flax was one of the steps to produce a beautiful linenyarn. When spinning the wool, first they carded it and then they spun on a for example a distaff. By the light from the wax candle, warm winter hats were knitted from the yarn they made themselves. The loom came most frequently in use during the winter. In the rigid heddle loom, beautiful ribbons were woven for the costume. They sewed clothes from their own materials and made beautiful bobbin lace to adorn themselves. This is some of the various crafts that the women carried out in the old days and still doing today.
