Beautifully crafted furniture and accessories from Walden

In my mind nothing beats beautifully crafted wood when it comes to bringing warmth and texture to a home. That's why I was so happy to discover the new Austrian furniture brand Walden. Inspired by 'a deeply rooted urge and longing in us all for nature and authenticity', Walden captures the feeling of pure nature in the beds, bedtables and sideboards and accessories. Each piece is crafted with a clear conscience in terms of the process, materials and structure and designed to last for years without losing its natural beauty and functionality. We love that?! Here's a little inspiration from the beautiful Walden collection....

Boho touches in a magnificent Moroccan riad

After yesterday's little piece of paradise I can't stop thinking about my next holiday, how about you?!  That's why I thought we could explore a similarly beautiful and inspiring home today, yet in a completely different corner of the world. Welcome to Morocco! This magical riad has been styled by Cleo Scheulderman for Couleur Locale to showcase their wonderful collection. I'm seeing earthy tones and rich textures from wooden rafters, baskets, stools, rugs and cotton covered lamps. The question is do I opt for the white sandy beaches of St Barths or explore the magnificent souks of Morocco?! Let's take a tour before we decide....

Such a lovely cool space from which to escape the scorching midday sun (and rest those weary feet after a day at the souk!), don't you think? And what a fabulous backdrop for a product shoot?!

Have you been to Morocco?

Nearly all the beautiful items you see are available at Couleur Locale. I'm also loving this fab Moroccan pom pom throw, blanket and Handira wedding blanket (for the wall or bed).

A few links from around the web this weekend:

Perfect bed side inspiration.

Pink was the accent colour in Milan -  hooray for blush!  Even more reason to enjoy my new Tom Dixon stool (seen in my home here)! I love the combination of dark grey, pink and a touch of dark golden yellow in this space too.

This Norwegian house carved out into the cliffs over a fjörd is completely crazy! 

A beautiful home tour down under.

Right, that's it from me, thank you for a wonderful week of engaging comments, social media shares and lovely e-mails. If you have time this weekend, donät forget to stop by and enter the exciting weekend give-away or simply browse the MSH archives for more bohemian homes (there goes an entire saturday morning!).  TTFN (ta ta for now)....!

PS this is not a sponsored post (they are always clearly marked), I simply love the space!

Dream escape: an ethereal beach house on St Barths

How much would you love to jet off to an island with white powder beaches, turquoise sea and swaying palm trees right now? Your home for the fortnight (because a week just wouldn't be enough!) in the form of an ethereal white pool villa with touches of driftwood, sea-grass and rattan and the most beautiful terrace. Meet Villa Palmier, a little touch of paradise on the island of St Barths in the French West Indies created by Matt and Kate Holstein. This beach house ranks high up in the list of places I would love to stay one day (yes, it's available to rent - I know!), how about you?! For now though, let's dream....

Guh!!!

Do I even need to ask if you can imagine holidaying here?!

And just how cute is that doggy?! 

Get the look (yes, really!):  Sea photographic print by Kara Rosenlund, source benches and tables made from driftwood here, banana fibre pouf, panama hat, basket beach bag, sea grass belly basket. rustic stool, white Marshall speakers. Off white linen rug. And of course, a hammock!

Other exotic escapes sitting there waiting for you include a little touch of paradise on Mykonos and a Brazilian pool villa. Where do I even start?! And although not available to rent, the ethereal home of Kara Rosenlund is all the evidence we need that it's possible to get an exotic vibe in our own home!

While we're in the moment, it's worth taking a peek at Annika Von Holdt's instagram snaps of the Bahama's (I know it's another island but....) - when she's not in the Bahama's she at her Copenhagen home - either way....  And (just cos I hear you) here's some pool and beautiful ocean inspiration too. If you close your eyes you can almost feel the warm sun and cool salt water on your skin. 

Roll on summer!

Have a dreamy day!
