  • A silk merchant’s dilemma

    As the silk merchant that I am, I collect a lot of inspiration images on silk from various image banks, such as Pinterest. The purpose of this is to provide influences for future purchases of new silk colors. It is not easy, you know, to choose the colors that we hope our customers will like.…

  • Irresistible summer feeling

    ,

    I have previously praised blue and white as a color combination. It gives such an irresistible summery feeling. When I decorated the country house, it was almost entirely blue and white. I have collected a considerable number of pictures in this color combination and it is difficult to choose the best ones. Here are some…

  • Egg creations

    Easter is egg time. But why do we eat eggs? The egg is a symbol of life and of Jesus’ resurrection on Easter Day. The fact that Easter has become the great egg holiday is partly due to the fact that it was forbidden to eat eggs during the 40-day fast before Easter. Partly because…

  • The Dream of the Perfect Christmas

    We’ve all dreamed of the absolute best Christmas possible, when EVERYTHING is perfect. This is what my (or rather looked like) Christmas dream used to look like. A roaring fire in a small “cottage, very English indeed”. Beautiful furniture, a small decorated Christmas tree and soft blankets. Made for curling up on the sofa and…

  • Something Soft and Warm in November

    ,

    Now this is it, the one considered by many to be the heaviest month of the year. I heard of a man who every year simply crossed out November on his calendar and wrote July instead. Then he went to warmer latitudes to experience the July heat. That’s one way. Another is to embrace the…

  • Midsummer in the Rain

    Just as our weather forecasters predicted, it was a Midsummer with heavy rain. Not exactly the weather we wanted for a weekend in the countryside, but not at all unusual. The only advantage is that we understood in advance that we had to set the table and eat our herring and drink our nubbe indoors.…

  • Take me to….Provence!

    At this time of year, the travel nerves start to get really bad. Even though it COULD be a nice summer here at home, we know that it is highly uncertain. Like for so many others, Provence is the ever-present travel destination and it is no wonder at all. It is teeming with attractions, unique…

  • Bedroom Bliss – Soft Headboards

    Deeply upholstered headboards have become fashionable. I don’t know if it was the Mad Men series that started the trend, or if it’s just the way things are. There’s a definite retro feel to these often exclusive headboards. But they’re stylish and in my opinion, a softly upholstered headboard is a must. The bedroom becomes…

  • Happy May…

    Beautiful May, welcome to our part of Sweden again! I would love to exclaim that but with the cold and wind that has stubbornly clung to these first days of May it will just be a frosty brrr! I am longing for summer and warmth and for the holiday at our country house in Värmlandsnäs.…

  • Renew with Color

    Now that the light has returned, I am inspired to highlight colors in the interior. Maybe repaint a wall, but the easiest thing is to buy new textiles, sew new curtains to bring the spring feeling inside. Colors give energy, try adding a new color to the room. If the interior is light to begin…
