Visionboard

Many thoughts, ideas, goals and wishes? Create a visionboard!

Collect all your inspiration sources in pictures, it's easier to find the right way to acheive your goals if they are visual compared to dreams just written in words.



It could look like this!

Hang something on your wall!

I met a friend today who told me being in need of art and wall decoration to her new apartment.. I found these pics that maybe could bring some inspiration!


Colorful abstract art suits almost every interior style.

I wouldn't say no to one of Swedish artist
Carolina Gynning's paintings
- Cool and powerful!

Framed black and white photos is an easy and classic way to decorate your walls.









More abstact art but less colourful




Mirror decoration





And at last my own favourite; Mark Rothko!

A new RUE out!

Yeyyy! A new issue of the online magazine RUE is now out! Plenty of lifestyle inspiration; for both you and your home!





I especially liked the interview with Kendall Wilkinson and the photos from her stylish home.





Wilkinson's dining room with the wooden table and the Philippe Stark's Ghost chairs makes
a perfect match - the different materials creates an eclectic look.

Pimp your furniture

A year ago I bought a sideboard from Ikea on a flea market. I have re-painted it but I'm not really satisfied of the result, it could be more fun with another colour and maybe I'll change the knobs. I think it's a little better now than before though.

In need of inspiration

Last Friday I didn't give you any Four Friday Favourites post. Lately I' ve found it hard to find inspiration to the Friday posts so that's why I'll try to take a break from them and instead get more motivated to update the blog with posts that feels right for the moment.


The first thing I did in order to get inspiration - Online shopping for new books!



Life and Work by Malene Birger

Domino
-  about 270 pages of Interior Decoration!

Other books I'd probably buy another day are

and the guide from

Four Friday Favourites

After almost five months in my new apartment it is now starting to look like a place you can actually live in.. and invite friends too. My inspiration has been interiors in black and white, with possibly an accent colour. Here are my four favourites (and they happen to all be Scandinavian designers):


Day Home




Tine K Home




Malene Birger

Get inspired you too...

Have a lovely weekend!
