Are you a cat or a dog person? On the blog lately it has felt like 'the week of the cats' - I think someone counted four in Wednesday's tour. And who am I to mess with a theme?
So today, allow 'puss-in-boots' (*not real name) and his feline friend, to give you a tour of their Swedish country home. His owner, Marie Envik has done a wonderful job creating a lovely living space for her family with plenty of places to relax (loving the built-in bench in the kitchen and the sitting room). It is also filled with wallpaper and wood panelling to give the space a hint of timeless country appeal.
But what stood out to me the most, is the nook in the children's room. It was often used in the olden days when many would share a room (a curtain was used to create privacy) - and often seen today in Swedish summer cottages where people bunk up overnight. It's no secret that children love to feel cosy and safe, so this idea translates well in today's world too - and makes the most of an awkward angled ceiling too!
Ready to take the tour? Puss-in-boots, please lead the way!
I have to say, I also love the ledge in the bathroom (we could do with something like this in our bathroom) and the green front door - what a difference it makes!
Is there anything that stood out to you?
See more of Marie's lovely home over on her instagram at @livetochbygget.
Note - I had another post planned for today but had to do a quick U-turn, hence why I have shared two country homes in a row. I hope you have felt inspired all the same and I look forward to sharing a big variety of inspiring spaces with you next week.
Shall we take a look at a few more homes with bed nooks today, here are some in all shapes and sizes:
Is that our cue to get lots of sleep or R&R this weekend? I think so! Have a wonderful, relaxing few days - thank you so much for joining this week.
Kram!

Soft, fabric-covered furniture is perfect for a Swedish country vibe—and the cats will love it too!
ReplyDeleteYes, agree! They certainly look very happy!
DeleteMe encanta todo y los gatitos más 😻😻😻
ReplyDeleteThe cats certainly do steal the show!
DeleteWhat a beautiful home!!
ReplyDeleteHappy you enjoyed this tour too!
DeleteI love all your posts!! Thank you so much!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, makes me so happy to hear!
DeleteAnother cat lover here, but besides appreciating their friendly presence and the homey touch they provide. my eye is attracted to the positioning of the green cupboard in the sitting room. Placing it at an angle softens the angles of the room, adding a touch of coziness as well as giving the plant perched above a bit of sunlight.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for pointing this out, something I missed, and I completely agree! I wonder if it is 'corner' shaped? it's hard to tell from the picture.
DeleteI like that they have kept the décor simple, the architecture shines through, with the beautiful greenery outside/botanical theme running around the home. Yes, loved the children's nook and the ledge on the stairs and in the bath, the fabrics and rugs. Some homes instantly make you feel 'at home'.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the wonderful 'countryside and cats' week. Do cats know they are being filmed! They pose rather well! Thank you, Niki:) Have a R & R weekend everyone!
They certainly know how to pose!
DeleteThank you for pointing out all these lovely details. Happy you've enjoyed the adhoc cat and country home week! I wonder what the theme will be next week? We'll have to wait and see!
I went back to take another look at the pictures and lost my comment! Argh! Anyway, cats for me! I love dogs, but I find cats easier to care for, and they make me laugh. The cat posed on the countertop looks very similar to the cat we had for many years while our kids were growing up.
ReplyDeleteYou won't be surprised to hear that I love this. I could move in, as-is, with the decor, cabinetry, furniture choices .... including the fox and the mushroom in the bedroom nook (and yes, I love a cozy nook). I wonder if my cats would get along with theirs. 😉
It's so frustrating when that happens Kris. Thanks for taking the time to re-write it - I always appreciate hearing your thoughts.
DeleteHe's such a lovely looking kitty!
Happy yo hear you loved this one - I am sure your cats would get along great (even if they don't speak the same language!).
What a pretty home. The fluffy kitties add a lot of coziness. I love both cats and dogs and husband is allergic to cats, so dogs for us. We’ve had three Norwich terriers and lost the last one 1.5 years ago. Miss them terribly, but one day another dog will grace our household again. I’m a strong proponent for the levity and wonder that pets add to the family and household! And that green front door is a lovely touch.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear about your loss Pamela. I am sure another wonderful dog will grace your home in the future, they really do add a sense of 'home'.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautifully designed Swedish country home! The warm tones and cozy atmosphere truly make it inviting. I love how the natural elements are incorporated throughout the space.
