GIVEAWAY

....from one of my lovely long-term sponsors The Minimalist.  At the risk of sounding biased, this is one of my favourite web-shops out there.  Their collection is beautifully considered and beautifully presented. So today to celebrate the festive season, The Minimalist have offered one of Kristina Kroghs stunning new wall calendars (On my wish list too!).  To enter, please leave a comment telling me where it would live... along side something else maybe?  This giveaway is open for one week.  The winner will be picked on Friday 20th December.  Good luck my lovely readers!

GORGEOUS SEASONAL STYLING FROM IKEA

These images landed in my mailbox this morning.  I love those very beautiful Amaryllis (my favourite winter flower) especially in those on-trend colours of deep red and pink. I have some in white, I'm now going to go and get some in that deep red! Just beautiful.

BLACKOUT

This beautiful image is part of the Blackout collection by Dan Holdsworth.  A breathtaking snippet of the landscape in the worlds most raw, inspirational and beautiful country, Iceland. I've been told many times by photographers that shooting in Iceland is just a dream - I believe it (and I'm not being biased!!).

I'M A FESTIVE MAGPIE

Yes I'm drawn to shiny, beautiful objects and right now I'm in love with many things in Brass and Gold. How are you getting on with plans for christmas? I am really busy with the shop, Christmas orders are coming in thick and fast which is wonderful. Have you started making your home look festive yet? I am going to start on Sunday and I can't wait! Must dash, coffee date with my lovely Swedish friend Maria :)

CALMING INTERIOR

 What a beautiful interior that's so easy on the eyes.  I just can't get enough of these natural, rustic colours and materials that contrast so beautifully in this case with the simple architecture. Love.

CHAIR LOVE

The Ant chair, designed by Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen.  I have these chairs (in this finish) and absolutely love them, there's something so calming and beautiful about this dark brown colour.  I've had them many years now but the longer I have them, the more I love them. That's how furniture love should be :)

FOODIE FRIDAY

Something a little festive? So looking forward to all the festiveness to come and believe me there will be lots!

BOOKMARKED

I love this beautiful piece. I want her. I went to buy her but she had sold! I discovered Solveig Holms work a few years back and I met her last year in Reykjavik. I already have a beautiful piece by Solveig who's work is inspired by the mystical nature of Iceland. Just amazing.
