White rustic /shabby chic home with modern surprises

Hej and happy Friday! Today I love this home. Of course cos it's white, yes. (Tell me honestly, do I publish too many white homes?! I think maybe I do..:). But also because it's full of surprises. At a distance it looks like a classic white rustic /shabby chic space but look closer and there are lots of gems. From vintage industrial Tolix stools, to deco chairs and modern bulb lighting. And that wonderful huge white gilded chair.

Vintage and mid-century drinks trolleys for a refreshing Valentine's Day!

Hellooo! And happy Valentine's day ♥♥♥ Any romantic plans? Me, I was thinking of enjoying a refreshing glass or two with my man. Which got me thinking. There's been so much inspiration lately on beautiful vintage drinks trolleys. We were given a fab mid-century drinks trolley ♥♥♥ by my parents-in-law a few year's ago and I finally got around to photographing it. Sadly it doesn't carry any cocktail hour specials!

 A quick guide to wear things are from....the chrome Dreyfuss 500 phone is from Graham and Green. The plant is a Corokia Silver Ghost which I once wrote a post about here. I bought the pot and plant from Gouteva in Malmö. My stack of magazines are all past editions of Elle Decoration UK. The cushions in the chair are from Designer's Guild and the black and white throw is called VILMIE RUND from IKEA. Sometimes mid-century drinks trolley's pop up at Lauritz. You're so welcome to pin these pics.

 
And for those of you who prefer your happy hour drink closer to hand, how about some of these lovely vintage mini bars?!

Gothenburg apartment with a touch of modern-romantic wallpaper

So, an interesting apartment today. And I think, the first home I've posted from Sweden's second largest city, Gothenburg. Perhaps not everyone's cup of tea, but personally I love the pale pink and green colour combination and have a bit of a weakness for romantic wallpaper. What do you think?











Pictures: Alvhem
 At first glance I didn't see the harlequin pattern on the wallpaper in the sitting room, but it adds a great interesting touch. Oh and I recognise those prints by Therese Sennerholt. I've got the 'Sweet dreams are made of you' one too!

Have a lovely day!

A Swedish black and white home with a lovely mix

Susann from Purple Area blog once told me if you would like to find a beautiful home, always look at the home of interior design bloggers (Suzann's home looks wonderful by the way, you can see pics here). The latest Plaza magazine also proves this with the home of the blogger behind the great blog 'Hannas Room'.......






The home has such a lovely mix of furniture, with modern items from IKEA such as the MINNEN extendable children's bed (I've got it for my little girl in white and love it) and beautiful mid-century vintage pieces like the dining room chairs. The bulb fairy lights are likely from Swedish shop Granit as are the white storage boxes shown above. And look.....it's shoes on display again... wonderful!

Beautiful loft space with mid-century finds

Morning all! I love this mid-century feel Chicago loft space created by Bertrand Benoit. Oh to have those great big windows and beautiful brick walls. And of course all of the magnificent mix of old and new designer pieces! Or what?

If you're anything like me you'll probably be happy to hear there are lots more pics of this wonderful space here.

Tile style. Beautiful in Barcelona

Moooorning! And happy Friday - Woo hoo! To celebrate the end of the working week i thought i would throw in something completely different - a beautiful, colourful home in barcelona. I don't actually know where to start with this one so I think I'll just let you get on with it! Oh to be going to barcelona for the weekend and get lost in the winding streets of the old part......*sigh*











Have you got any exciting plans for the weekend? Going anywhere beautiful and exotic like Barcelona? Me? I'm off to Helsingborg. It's not exotic exactly but it is a very lovely city. Plus there's some great interior shopping to be done!

Interesting eclectic Stockholm apartment

Go'dag! There are so many interesting pieces in this Stockholm apartment! I love the vintage industrial lamps, the armchair and the modular sofa. And also the interesting use of wallpapers and colour schemes. Very personal and original, just like a home should be.

I think there's something very cool about children's rooms that seamlessly fit the theme of the rest of the house. What do you think? Are you more of a classic kids room type or would this work for you? Time to wake up with my morning latté now but back in a little with more inspiration!

It's so wonderfully Autumnal. I particularly love the ochre oversized floor cushions and fluffy bed cushion. What do you think?

Soaking up a converted Gotland brewery house

Hi and Happy Monday!  I loved the 'cosy' picture from Friday so much that I felt it would be rude not to show the entire house. So here you are, a beautifully renovated 1862 brewery house on Gotland, an island on Sweden's East coast featured in Sköna Hem

Is that a vintage Tolix stool I see hiding in the corner? Find reproduction vintaged Tolix at Rockett St George. Nice way to store your mago's.  I love the contrasting colours on the wood panelling.

The polish concrete floor looks fabulous and actually quite warm! For Tolix bar stools like these see previous.

Watch out - don't sit on the poor dinosaur! Check out Dinosaur Time for models like these to add a bit of GRRRR to your bathroom.

Picture: Sköna Hem, Photographer: Anna Kern
And didn't I promise for some colour's that pop and fizz this week too?  The hottest colour that everyone's blogging about right now is BLUE. So in case you fancy singing the blues this Monday, perhaps these lovely pictures will inspire you...
