Sunday mood

 

Hello from my Sunday corner. Here's a glimpse of my new blue and yellow Svenskt Tenn cushion bringing me a happy mood. I love the pattern and it is also quite unusual and not seen everywhere.
 

I ordered this book by Leila Lindholm recently, "Sweet Christmas", and was not disappointed. I love the recipes by Leila because you can be sure that everything is good. I hope to have some time to test something well in time before the Christmas rush.

 

I have renewed this library book four times now...Longing for a slow day....😊

 

 

Already starting with those typical Christmas candies...

 

 

I found a few cool spoons at the flea market some time ago.

 

Wishing you a nice Sunday!

 

Marimekko spring summer 2017

 

  

I know it is soon Christmas, the first snow came yesterday and I should be blogging about Christmas stuff, candelabras and assorted chocolates, but then I saw Marimekko's spring summer news for 2017 and I just had to show you. I  also know that Marimekko recently showed their Christmas press pictures in red, but I am not so much into red Christmases, more neutral ones, so let's take a jump one season ahead for a while. I think the spring summer collection is so delightful with all the green shades of the vases by Carina Seth Andersson. Some new black and white tableware in the Oiva series is also coming. Enjoy!

I think Marimekko has experienced an upswing in interesting collaborations lately. Next year it is rumoured that Liselotte Watkins will be doing a fabric pattern for Marimekko!

A cosy home at Manhattan, New York

The home of Elin Renck is my favourite this week. It is located at Manhattan in New York. So cosy and Stockholmean with downright Svensk Tenn magic. And those shoes! The whole home can be seen here.

Old favourite

You might have seen this apartment already on several blogs lately, but I anyhow wanted to save it to my blog archive. I think it is so cosy. We might pay attention to different things. Let's check what I see in these pictures...

I love the roses poster by Debbie Carlos.

 

The Mega dot coverlet by Hay...

 

... the contrast of the dark walls...

 

 

The dotted and painted tableware...

 

PS. Volang-Linda recently gave some really nice examples on how to renew old boring tableware!

 

 

The mirrors...

 

The picture wall...

 

 

... and all lamps.

 

Have a nice evening my friends!

Idyllic garden and house in Falsterbo

 

 

In this beautiful house, with the idyllic garden having more than hundred different roses, lives the Swedish couple David and Madeleine. The house was built in 1901 by a bank director and was kept in the same family for three generations before the couple bought it. It is located in Falsterbo and was the third summerhouse there, before the town became a real holiday destination where people spend their summer vacations.

What I remember most from this article in Elle Decoration is that the couple says that people are too anxious nowadays to not have the right furniture or follow the latest trends. This is something that you should not bother about, but just trust your own intuition about what is right for your home. Well said! Just look at the result above by someone following that mindset!

And that garden...!

At Nordhemsgatan in Gothenburg, Sweden

 

This nicely furnished two-roomed flat is now for sale at Nordhemsgatan in Gothenburg, Sweden. So much details to get inspired by. The double set of round mirrors on the wall, decorative black vintage chairs, lamps, daybed, wooden cupboard, bubble vase, mix of living green plants... All in contrast to the daring blue wall colour and flowery wallpaper.
