Morning! I hope you had a wonderful weekend?! Sometimes, an entire weekend at home is just what you need. It helped that the weather was hot hot HOT here in Sweden!.. And I finally got around to putting up my vintage industrial lamp, a birthday present from my parents. Sooo pleased! Here are a few snaps from my kitchen / dining area complete with my little three year old who was busy making me a Mother's Day card, awwww.....

A little guide: The white storage units are Swedish brand
Marbodal. The vintage industrial lamp was sourced online. The Andy Warhol poster is from
malmö moderna museet. It's actually a placeholder for now as I'm looking for a great 70's print with a touch of colour. The chair my little three year old is sitting on is
trip trap. You may have seen my mid century drinks trolley before
here! All my purple / pink cushions are from my favourite,
Designers Guild. The floor was originally dark oak which we sanded down and white-washed to brighten up the room.
I have soooo many projects left for this room, my next step is to source an eclectic mix of vintage dining chairs. Watch this space!!
A belated Happy Mother's day to all you beautiful Swedish Mummy's out there! Niki x
This is awesome. Love expecially the flowers!

Thank you! Great blog! Japan is especially interesting for me at the mo as I am actually going to Tokyo shortly! :)
DeleteWow Niki! That is gorgeous. I love the light and all your little extras. Very, very jealous! x
ReplyDeleteThank you Jen!! The winters are just so dark here that the most important goal is to let as much light in as possible and then bounce it around the home!
DeleteLove this! Thx for sharing! Looks very scandinavian and light! Agree with your comment about the winters in Sweden...we have to make it work!
ReplyDeleteWe really do don't we?! haha!
DeleteBeautiful bright space:) Lovely home Niki!
ReplyDeleteYou have a lovely home Niki. Love the brightness and high ceilings. the cahlboard paint looks good too.. This is my next project at home. How practical is it?
ReplyDeleteHappy mothers day to all you Swedish mums!
Thank you Nick! A good quality blackboard paint is so practical, we have used ours loads and it works just as well as any standard blackboard. I also love the 'soft mat' finish too, it makes it less harsh than just painting a wall black. A magnetic blackboard paint could be even more useful and fun....next time :)
DeleteYup agree wih everyone else good to see your home, it looks fantastic, look forward to seeing more soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I hope you had a lovely weekend in the sunshine.
DeleteI love your home!, is beautiful, thanks for sharing!, have a lovely day, big hug!.
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Well done :)
ReplyDeleteNiki your home is gorgeous! I would love to hang out in the bubble chair by the window.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful! Love it! hx
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone :) It's always a little nerve racking posting pics of your own home so I am really happy you all like this area. Big hug to you all!
ReplyDeleteNiki what a great post: The lamp looks great and I love how your dining arrangement makes use of that nook for seating. Most of all, love getting a sneak peak into your beautiful home!
ReplyDeleteLove! Such an inspiration! The lamp is great and a perfect addition!
ReplyDeletevery nice design
ReplyDeleteHi niki - what a great blog - totally hooked! Wondering whether you can advise how I can can get hold of an Andy Warhol picture such as yours - it seems they are impossible to get hold of in England!
ReplyDeleteThanks

Hi Zosia, I don't think you can buy them in the UK, and in fact they are in such high demand in the Malmö modern museum shop they have even had to limit the number you can buy! Crazy! So I think a trip to Malmö or Stockholm is your only way (great excuse for a trip?!!).
