Beautiful inspiration for plant lovers

Last week I shared a cosy garden shed make-over (how I'd love one of these!) - which was all about creating a little home to call your own at the end of the garden. Today, I thought we'd do the reverse - and take a look at how to create a lovely garden inside our homes - or at least bring a little greenery indoors! Not only are plants said to help boost health, clean the air, boost healing and help us work better (read more here!), they also look beautiful. This weekend I'll be taking inspiration from Jeska and Dean Hearne's lovely home - which Dean recently shot for a 'green-living' feature in Another Escape magazine. I hope you'll feel inspired too!

Time to create that urban jungle?!

Get the look with a few of my favourite planters: vintage terracotta pots, this and this garden pot, and for something a little quirky try Stella Baggott (cute!).

And for the plants - I'm loving some of these 'no fail' plants (said to be nearly impossible to kill  we like)...and the 9 best for air purifying.

For more home inspiration this weekend you might want to revisit the beautiful Melbourne home of a florist and a lovely boho home of a Swedish artist and florist.

And finally - 182 beautiful ideas of how to incorporate plants and flowers into your life. I guess we have no excuses!

And before I leave you to have a lovely 'green' weekend, there's good news all round, I've announced the winner of the Feliz bedding here - as well as a fantastic 20% off for everyone else - yay! Click here to get your discount code!

Have a wonderful weekend and see you Monday!

PS Could you live off the grid like this couple?

Fresh Dutch style with cheerful pops of colour

Somehow I've ended up with quite dark wood in my home - (mainly due to the pieces of mid-century furniture from my parents-in-laws attic - seen in my sitting room) I love these items and couldn't bear to part with them but one day I would love to go for a fresh, light feel. These lovely spaces created by Studio LileSadi hit the spot with the soft feel and pretty pops of colour. Every shot features their signature pieces - which include beautiful shelving, prints, cushions, blankets and even a birdhouse side table (love that - it even has a built in light?!). Enjoy!

Oh so lovely, don't you think?

What type of wood do you have in your home?

You can find many of the items you see in their webshop (and read more about the Dutch shop Studio LileSadi).  Source beautiful pure linen bedding here.

I love Dutch style -  often associated with as light with cheerful dashes of colour - and am often featuring them here on My Scandinavian Home.  You can find a few of my favourites here. And of course Holly's studio in Delft, which I featured yesterday! It's turning out to be a bit of Dutch week?!

Have a lovely day!
