Tuesday DIY: fab yet simple way to update a wall

I came across this really fab, yet relatively simple polka dot wall DIY project over at My 2nd Hand Life. Maiju found a reel of dot stickers and stuck them at random over one wall. I absolutely love the outcome how about you? What a simple yet cool way to update a space.

Could you imagine covering a wall in your home with polka dots?

I've been thinking of renovating my little girls room with heart stickers (or one of these shapes). the question is do I just place them on a white wall or should I paint the wall in a pretty colour first? Tips welcome!

This is another great DIY project for updating a wall (potato printing - who'd have thought?

If you're feeling creative this week you can find more fab DIY projects here and here. And feel free to leave your own tips in the comment section below.

Have a lovely day!

A light and bright Gothenburg home

Morning! It's truly mid winter here in Sweden now. Dark, cold, snowy. We're all hibernating indoors with lit candles eating too many cinnamon buns (I speak for myself on that last point!). At this time of year I feel having a beautiful, cosy home is even more important since we're inside so much of the time. I like this Gothenburg home currently for sale through Alvhem. It's light, has beautiful bones and blends high street finds like the Urban chair from IKEA with Scandinavian classics like the Eames DSR chair.

Alvhem

My take home message from this home is to add colourful cushions to my sofa in time for spring. How about you?

See more fab homes from Alvhem here, here and here. Or for colourful cushion inspiration I'm loving Elina Dahl's home (one of the most ever viewed home tours on My Scandinavian Home for good reason!).

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting Caroline of Beautifulosophy blog for a fika. It's always so fun to meet someone in person from the blog world, we had such a great chat. I love Caroline's blog, it's such a treat each day.

I hope you have a lovely day!

Saturday wall space inspiration

Hello Saturday. A rare weekend post from me! For some reason I was wide awake early this morning which was a real luxury as the house was so quiet! So I made myself a big cup of fresh coffee on the stove and had a little play on Pinterest (of course!). Here's my Saturday morning find. A very cool print by one of my favourite Swedish designers Therese Sennerholt.

I have one of her limited edition prints in my sitting room and never tire of it. Do you have anything by her?

I recently came across this fab store The Print Atelier too which is great for photographic art. I'm on it!

Have a lovely weekend and see you Monday!
