Festive touches in a beautiful Norwegian home

There are a few spaces that I love to go back to time and again. The Norwegian house of blogger Elisabeth Heier is one of them. Elisabeth has that rare talent which combines impeccable interior design and styling with the ability to take beautiful photos - the result of which is regularly featured on her blog. Over the past few weeks, Elisabeth's been adding subtle festive touches to her home - including a white advent calendar, pretty stars, a mini tree, and a wreath (in the bedroom - love that!). Let's take a peek....

So lovely?!  The light, the natural linen, the pine - everything!

Get the look: dining area - &traditional mass light (marble version), Eames DSR chairs, grey linen napkins, a cast iron teapot, daybed: Himla cushion, sheepskin throw, Christmas tree heart decoration by Stelton. bedroom - brass wreath from COOEE design, the bedding is from Hoi of Scandinavia, marble table light (I also love this one by Lee Broom).

Elisabeth shares her coffee table styling tips (and where the items are from on her coffee table here) - just saying!

Do you remember her home from Christmas 2014? The space looks equally beautiful in summer time (as you can imagine!) - you can find all the posts I've shared of her current and previous home here (not that I'm stalking her or anything....).

And since we're already in Norway - how about a few other favourites including this serene house looking out over the Oslo fjord,  a cosy Norwegian country house and the rustic cabin hide-away. Guh!

Since visiting this summer for my next book I'm officially in love with Norway (I can't wait for you to see the three Norwegian homes we photographed!) and so looking forward to going back as soon as possible (I discovered Oslo is only five hours drive from where I live - how amazing is that?!) - have you been?!

Have a great day!

A white Swedish home with warm, natural touches

I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying blogging (and instagram) this December - from cosy spaces and christmas trees to winter kayaking (cue - a new instagram favourite) and gift give-aways, it's all been so inspiring, I hope you've been enjoying it too?  Today we woke up to clear blue skies here in southern sweden - which I think calls for something fresh, don't you?! This lovely home in Gothenburg, Sweden fits the bill perfectly with its soft tones and natural textures. Think white walls wooden furniture, jute rugs and layers of texture...

Perfect!

With lots of guests coming to stay this December I'm thinking how great it would be to have a wooden clothes rail like this one - anyone know where it's from?

And I love the lighting in this apartment: you can't go wrong with the Aurora Vita feather pendant and the fab Z1 pendant (I've got this in my bedroom and it looks especially beautiful when the light is dimmed). This knitted lamp is similar to the one over the kitchen table. 

Is there anything that stands out to you?

Have a great start to the week!
