I’m happy

I’ve had a fantastic weekend. I had the day off on Friday, watched some of the royal wedding, and went shopping with a friend. Enjoyed a quiet night in with the family.

Saturday was our big makeover day. Our balcony had to be cleaned and ready for summer. The whole family got up early, and went shopping for flowers, herbs and other nice things to put out there. Now we just need something to sit on. We need to come up with a safe solution, because the little one has to be safe out there as well. So no chairs or other stuff he can climb up on. Got any suggestions?

Gothenburg living

Where: Johanneberg, in Gothenberg, Sweden

Size: 39 kvm

Things I love in this apartment:

* fresh flowers in multiple colours

* The light chain around the window, and the fact that it is black. I love the effect in the room.

* The lamp over the table – notice the purple cord

* The “you me we” print by the bed

* The Kusmi tea in the kitchen. Not only is the tea delicious, but the canister is so decorative

Lovely and small

First of all, I hope you had a great Easter and good company. I sure did. As I wrote earlier this week, my daughter, my husband and I stayed in Berlin for a few days. Came home to our little cute boy, and the kids have been enjoying every minute together after we came home. It’s so great that they’re playing more and more with each other. He’s growing up so fast – but big sis is really loving it, and so am I.

Besides a great Easter, I want to share this  small apartment (47 kvm) in Gothenburg, Sweeden with you guys. It has so many nice details, and it reminds me of my own home. I’ve got some of the same things in my home as well.

Little studio

Little studio is a cute little shop that I would like to share with you guys. And don’t worry, shipment is worldwide, and in April and May it’s free if you buy a pillow. I think I might be tempted to buy something myself. The design is wonderful, and I can imagine several items in my home already. The posters for little people are so cute too. Check out the shop right here.

Small living in Stockholm

Size: 57 kvm

Location: Vasastan, Stockholm

Things I like about the place:

* The paintings on the wall in the living room

* The shower curtain with stars. I’m addicted to stars

* The photo collage in the hall

Kitchen inspiration

Things I like about this kitchen:

* The red Kitchen Aid – love a bit of colour in an otherwise black & white kitchen. Goes perfectly with the ladybird on the floor too.

* The print/fabric on the wall.

* The chalkboard – great way to write personal notes or to do lists

* The white painted floor

* The glass door – great way to let the light in

* The bench – I want one in our kitchen too
