Tjena! Today we're heading to the Swedish countryside to dream of a simple life. One which involves a beautiful country home, a separate ceramics workshop and even an antique and homeware shop with a cafe selling delicious cinnamon buns and fresh coffee.
Välkommen to the home of Amanda Forster who lives in the countryside near Jönköping with her family and their delightful dog. Amanda shares her passion for decorating, flea market finds and ceramics while surrounded by sheep, hens and a beautiful garden on her instagram feed @ladanskuriosa. What vintage finds Amanda doesn't choose to keep for her own home, she sells in her beautiful boutique Ladans Kuriosa (the curiosity barn) - somewhere I am now very keen to visit the next time I pass by.
I hope you enjoy the tour of this charming home which is filled with beautiful items, cosy layers of textiles and pretty wallpaper. maybe it will have you dreaming of a new life in the Swedish countryside!
So beautiful! And so cosy in Autumn too with the fireplaces, blankets and sheepskins.
Could you imagine cosying up here this weekend?
It was hard to find pictures of Amanda's pottery studio - but there's a lovely film clip here. And you can find plenty more pictures of her home and store here.
Check out more country homes this weekend in the archive (if this crops up first, just scroll past). I was so happy to read how much you all fell in love with Frida's home on Monday. Take a peek here if you missed it.
Have a wonderful weekend all, thank you so much for stopping by.

You had me at cinnamon buns. :)
ReplyDeleteLovely, lovely, lovely. The vintage touches and the colors, the brick and the ceilings, all harmonize well. Did you notice that the cafe curtain over the sink changes location? Sometimes high, sometimes low. I'm assuming it's for photographic reasons. It caught my eye because of the clothespins holding it up.
I agree with Kris! Just lovely!!!
ReplyDeleteDifferent homes inspire in different ways...sometimes to get that long-pending work done! To just sit in that sunroom would be happiness. This home abounds and is restful...guess its alright to dream! Det är dags för fredagsmys!
Really beautiful - love it! Did have to look twice at the first picture, wondering why they had a pair of old-fashioned bloomers hanging at the window...! Duh!
