Why, hej! How was your weekend? Ours was a mix of dips in the sea, thunderstorms (not at the same time, thankfully), work (too much on at the mo, and not at all ‘lagom’ – but thankfully only short term) and life in between (like arguing about who is going to empty the dishwasher). I hope yours was suitably varied, and lovely and relaxing.
So, let’s kick off the week with something inspiring, shall we? Like a cosy Stockholm apartment. This home is dedicated to anyone who loves colour, pattern and likes to be surrounded by books (show of hands please?). It’s also inspiring for anyone looking for cute ideas for a small space with young children (love the cot in the master bedroom and children’s bedroom solution).
Ready for a nosey?
Note the climber in the kitchen window – with autumn closing in, it’s a great way to create a ‘green effect’ while the trees lie dormant and create those nature-inducing feel good vibes.
We’re seeing so many statement-painted doors right now and I find them so inspiring. Would you consider painting a door a different colour in your home?
FYI stripes continue to be a strong trend this autumn and tablecloths and cushions are a great way to add them to the home.
The colour, the pattern, the warmth – the everything!
A home for book and LP lovers, so great to see, don’t you think?
Notice how the owners have added pictures, bunting and other small touches to carve out a corner exclusively for the littlest member of the family, while the rest of the room still has a mature feel.
There’s always room for more books!
When space is limited, a desk and raised bed solution is a great way to ensure there is a zone for everything.
I love this home as the owner’s personality shines through. Plus, it’s so well kitted out to display and store all their belongings and treasured items.
I’d love to hear your thoughts and observations below.
Wishing you an ‘underbart’ start to the week!
