Make An Entrance!

The girls from Nordic Fusion in Manly, Sydney, have done some great work bringing Nordic Design to Australia - they shared this beautiful home shot today on FB - a rare find!!!











It looks like it could be a weekend project!
And don't you love the wide entrance door with the glass panel? Practical yet stylish and visually pleasing! All shown materials could easily be sourced second-hand - particularly the glasswares and ceramics...
And that thought makes me want to go to Varmland this Australian winter and check out more loppis! ;-)

Jams & Pickles

We are heading towards that time of the year again: The kitchen smells of cinnamon, brown sugar syrup and stone fruits and there are never enough glasses to put all those cooked delights into. The tip of the iceberg are labelling issues, BUT: Here is a little help to take that one of worry away, beautiful botanical labels to use for your jams & pickles, free to download! Thank you, Packagery!

I came across these on How About Orange, a great resource by blogger Jessica Jones! Thank you Jessica!

Bunnies by Anja

Frau Kaennchen has done it again: I am in love with Anja Rieger's bunnies!!! Animal friends, alive and imagined, are very very important in our household, see these beauties. They put a smile on our faces every single day. 

Aren't they adorable???

If you think so too, but are not quite sure where you could feature them, check out the Design Ideas. Anja's website is in German, but you can visit her on FB and she does speak English! Thank you, Anja!!!

THE Chest – Situation One

As announced last week, the chest will play an important role in this blog: I will make some suggestions how to combine a beautiful piece of old furniture with some pieces from the kitchen, the lounge or the bedroom.

Today’s pieces are white ceramics from all corners of the world, not only from the Nordik home. Combined with some lace doilies left to me by my Oma (German for granny), this selection of crockery looks beautiful against a red wall, paired with a lamp to match. A contrasting photo frame with a black & white rounds up the grouping.
