The Cosy Stockholm Home of a Macramé Artist

Anyone else feeling like they want to head back to bed today? Or perhaps wrap yourself in cotton wool and curl up on the sofa?! Fanny Zedenius might have the answer. Except we're not talking cotton wool, but rope - and yards, and yards of it! Fanny is a Swedish macramé artist based in Stockholm.  Despite exploring many different crafts, she found her passion in rope and knots in 2014 and started selling handmade macramé art to homes all around the world through her online shop Createaholic soon after.  Last year, Fanny publisher her first book Macramé - the craft of creative knotting for your home.  There's not an inch of Fanny's home without a macramé weave in some shape or form - from poufs and weaved curtains to wall decor and plant hangers. But most strikingly of all, is a studio, where she keeps all her yarn - now that's where I could spend my Monday!

How incredible is the wall hanging above the sofa? Fanny takes custom orders for pieces like this in her shop - I'm pretty tempted!


Fanny's other big love is plants - which can be found in every corner, on every ledge and hanging in every window of her Stockholm apartment!

For those of you sitting in a corporate open-plan office right now and weeping, I hope you'll feel inspired to hear that Fanny's business was born out of a hobby back in 2014. Today she runs a shop and holds creative workshops to spread the 'macramé love'! It just goes to show what you can achieve with a little passion, dedication and determination! Your dream job is waiting for you friends!

Other bohemian style homes to feel inspired by: a relaxed boho home on the edge of a desert7 boho ideas for outdoor spaces (big and small), and the wonderful Topanga Canyon home of Malia Grace Mau.

Have a cosy start to the week!

A Charming Copenhagen Loft with Mid-Century Classics



It's Friday - härligt! How about a cosy home to top off the week? Earlier this year, Laura and Nora of Our Food Stories captured Line Borella's charming loft in Copenhagen. Line shares the space with her "patchwork family" which includes her daughter Nola, boyfriend Martin, and his three children. Line's career started in fashion, having been a part of the team who developed Copenhagen Fashion Week back in 2007, but she has since hopped over to the world of interiors, working in global PR for Danish brand MENU. Her home is a wonderful mish mash of mid-century Danish design pieces, iconic lighting, fluffy Moroccan rugs and new Nordic pieces. Enjoy the tour!







The family love cooking and designed the kitchen with plenty of work surfaces and a place for everyone to hang out and socialise while food is being prepared.

 

 


What a charming home! I love the original Danish design classics - it's amazing to see how they've withstood the test of time, testimony to the incredible craftsmanship.

Is there anything that stood out to you?

For more Danish inspiration over the weekend you might like to take a peek at the beautiful colours in this Jutland home, a charming boho apartment decorated on a shoe-string budget and a relaxed, mid-century inspired space.

We've just arrived in the Loire Valley, France to celebrate my Mum's birthday. We got up at the crack of dawn to catch a red-eye flight. I'm definitely feeling it now, but hopefully it's nothing a cool glass of Sancerre can't cure! 

Salut! Bon Weekend!
