A Warm Swedish Christmas: Inside Sanna’s Country Home

Hej there! How are you holding up? It's a busy time of year! 

On Friday I shared a few snapshots from my own home this Christmas (along with a little gift!), and today we're spreading our wings a little further afield – to Sanna's beautiful Swedish country home in the snow.

Sanna lives here with her family, and to give you a full tour I went back through her Instagram (with kind permission, of course) so I could gather snapshots from each room – which is why some feel more Christmassy than others. Either way, there's plenty of inspiration to be gleaned!

Sanna’s home is filled with the kind of quiet, soulful details that make Scandinavian country interiors so inviting. Painted wood panelling in dusty blues and greys gives the kitchen a soft, heritage feel, while worn timber floors and simple rustic stools add a grounded warmth. Also, keep an eye out for natural textures—ceramics, linen curtains, wooden cabinets— which soften each room, and fresh flowers appear everywhere, bringing life to the winter light. 

In the living areas, I esepcially love the paper lanterns and pleated lamps, which cast a gentle glow over vintage furniture, creating a layered look that feels both relaxed and personal. Just the house I'd like to come home to, whatever the season. Enjoy the tour! 










So beautiful! 

I actually love that there are pictures from each season here, as it gives you an idea of how it looks and feels over the year. Do you agree? 

It really is such a pretty home, and the views over the fields are magical. 

One thing that stood out to me was the upholstery on the armchairs. I tried (and failed) to find a source. Does anyone know where the fabric comes from? I'll also check with Sanna and update the post once I know. 

Did anything stand out to you in particular?

Just in case you'd like to see a little more Christmas inspiration today, here are a few beautiful home tours and edits I've shared in the past: 


Har det så fint!

  1. It looks like a Josef Frank design, of which I have a number in my cottage.

  2. Absolutely love your site! We visited Sweden a few years ago and it has remained one of our fondest visits. We both have Scandinavian heritage and so appreciate how those bygone homes have been preserved.

  3. Tell Sanna that I'm headed over for a cup of tea! :) Wow, wow, wow. This is amazing. Randomly, I love how the sunshine shows through the seashell in the photgraph. I think maybe the light is the common thread to what I enjoy about this home, but well-tended historical homes always will have a hold on my heart. The star lanterns, the wooden floors, and the beadboard .... sigh. Also, how cute is the dog in the front porch? We would refer to the trim on the porch as gingerbread trim--what would it be called in Sweden?

  4. As soon as I spotted that flowered armchair I wanted to curl up in it, perhaps with a book or simply to gaze through the large windows at the landscape beyond. The upholstery is so nice - echoing the indoor plants in winter and outside foliage during warmer seasons.
    And the light, as you noted, coming in through the windows and diffused through the paper and fabric lampshades casts everything in a warm, inviting glow.

  5. Another fan of the armchair here. The exterior is particularly pretty and the views. Her pup is so cute.
