Quiet Time

Only God can tell a questioning heart to stop asking and start living out the answers.
-From Heart of My Heart by Kristin Armstrong

Latas reutilizadas / Repurposed Beachy Tins

Un proyecto rápido y fácil con solo una latas pintadas, un proyecto que me ha encantado del blog de  Northshore days 


Un pequeño tutorial en imágenes de un proyecto simple, pero con un resultado precioso.
Pintar las latas en un tono turquesa y lijar ligeramente para darles un toque antiguo y desgastado, enrollar en el centro con cuerta de yute y pegarle algunos detalles plateados de inspiración marina





Añadientos unas flores el resultado es espectacular

Tonos neutros / Neutral tones


Los colores neutros pueden crear un ambiente sofisticado y elegante  hasta un ambiente rústico y desenfadado con ellos podemos crear una decoración armoniosa y serena consiguiendo ambientes equilibrados.

Hmmm, I Think I Like You

This light caught my eye while looking for another fixture on West Elm today.  Thoughts?

Casa de campo en Bélgica / Country house in Belgium

Una relajante granja a 25 km de Bruselas de estilo rústico con interiores sencillos e integrados con la naturaleza que la rodea.
















Simple yet striking

A distinctly simple yet utterly striking Scandinavian apartment to celebrate the weekend. If you could choose one fabulous designer item from this home, what it would it be?

Before I head off, just a little reminder that you only have a couple of days left to make the most of the 10% My Scandinavian Home reader offer from the fab shop Bodie and Fou! - code MSH2012.

Have a really great weekend all!

Estilo nordico / Nordic Style

Lineas simples, espacios limpios, luminosos y confortables de los interiores nórdicos, una vivienda llena de luz y vida con el encanto de los espacios dominados por el blanco y con pequeños toques de color.












My friend's lovely Malmö home

A good friend of mine, and fellow Skåne flee market scourer is selling her beautiful 1902 'Sekelskifte' apartment in the centre of Malmö. It will go on the market later today but I was lucky enough to get a sneaky peek! Sofia and her family are so clever at finding items in antique fairs, flee markets and bargain basements and then blending them in with designer pieces. It helps that the apartment has beautiful bones and a fantastic traditional Kakelugn (tiled fireplace) too!










Bjurfors
I spy: Many of the frames you see on the picture wall are from flee markets as are the high chair, the shipping crates and the demijohn (green bottle). The retro dining table in the kitchen is a 1950's Perstorp skiva. There are a few pieces of scandinavian design too such as the set of black Arne Jacobson Series 7 chairs around the dining table and the String shelves in the hall.

Such a pretty home. Anyone fancy moving to Malmö? The more the merrier!
