blue walls

I'm looking for blue wallpapers, and when I say blue I mean really blue. These lovelities I need to add to my wish list, or maybe just to my 'maybe some day one of these' list. However, love the blues!

blue

Bold and Beautiful Blue decor. I never really liked blue until now, and this carpet is fancy, no? It's a great idea to decorate with books, it gives a warm look to any home.

animal instinct

I was doing my Christmas shopping round the other day and visited H&M Home showroom again. It's has been changed a bit since the last time, and I really enjoy the place. This time I will have to order home those zebra towels. Grrr.

The first day of my my 1,5 weeks holiday, and I'm exhausted. Just need to sleep. Sleep and eat { well, I don't NEED to eat that much... } But now first, we have a shopping day ahead. It's quite nice weather in Helsinki at the moment, and me and my friends are well prepared for the shopping round.

This is the day when I fly to Finland, and I'm quite excited! It's so nice to meet the family, friends, enjoy food and my little nieces' company. I'm going to do the last minute shopping spree in Helsinki tomorrow so wish me luck!

It really feels like Christmas is coming closer now. People are shopping and partying like madmen, and there's all this food and drinks everywhere. This lovely home in my old home town Uppsala is so cozy. Very sweet place!

We have the traditional Christmas scene, and one less traditional. Which one is your favorite?

This scene is beautiful! Very urban look, and the ornaments are massive!

This year, like every year, I'm off to Finland for Christmas. I just cannot really comprehend, the ham-chocolate-wine-turkey-sausage-beer-nuts-cognac-salmon-pie-candy-butter-chocolate{I know, again}-drinks-potato-macaroni-meatloaf-pork-I-will-never-eat-again-period(*) is closer than ever. Me, not really enjoying the après-Christmas whale-shaped belly parade but what the hell, it's time to go mad again.

I don't Christmas decorate my home. I know this might a surprise you but I never do that. My mum takes care of that, and when I return to Sweden again, after the (*), I just don't want to think about it anymore. Get me right, I love Christmas, I just don't Christmas decorate.

mmm.. clean and smoky

I've lately found these retro soaps by Claus Porto a bit everywhere in Sweden, and love the packaging. But I'm just not so sure about the scents... Tobacco? Is that nice smell? I'm sure I'm just confused... Maybe the scent of tabaco leaves is nice, I need to try these to know for sure.

map obsession

Have a problem with too much travelling which directly results in masses of maps laying everywhere? Not? Any kind of travel & design obsession? Now we're talking. Nevermind, you still can start with that sport. I love these design by Bombus.





I was thinking about using my old Vogues in the same manner. Just get obsessed now.
