Decadence

Luxurious interior from Ralph Lauren. One couldn’t expect less, of course. Cosy but a bit too pretentious for my taste. You probably need a huge castle to decorate this way. I love the first photo, though!!

Today’s thankful

Webshop tip

Country by Mail has simply amazing products for a raw, relaxed, country inspired home. I love this site! Also, have a look at their Christmas products. You’ll find them here.

Enjoy!

So cosy

Many blogs today. There’s so much adorable things out there. I have to share everything I find!

Decorate baby’s bed this Christmas

In memory

Today, a family member is taken to her final rest after a tragic drowning accident. This is for her.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.

Do it yourself

First of Advent

For the first time ever, I made a personal Advent decoration, and I actually think it’s kind of pretty. And it certainly was easier than I thought. And fun. The first candle will be lit later today, when it gets darker and we will have warm chocolate with whipped cream and “lussebullar”.

I wish you all a happy first Sunday in Advent!

Oh, and have a look at our veranda. Cat invasion.

And so it begins

I couldn’t wait any longer. Christmas has arrived to our house. Stars hang in the windows and early gifts are wrapped. I’m not usually a very Christmassy person but this year I thought I’d give it a go. And here are a few photos of my early start.
