While we are waiting

The new Ikea catalogue 2012 is out on the 15th August. Is it wrong to be this excited? In the mean time here are some great inspirational images from the Ikea Livet Hemma blog. They have worked with some great stylists the last year or so and it really shows on the blog. Some great guest bloggers as well. 

Original storage

Such a clever selection of odd bits of storage grouped together to create a lovely display.

Alternativ styling

With a lot of great estate agents cropping up everywhere in Sweden, Fantastic Frank manages to be a little bit different with their quirky styling. 

Contrast

Love the contrast in this space between sleek furniture, graphic art and old period features. Quick question though; how is that sofa staying up? It has three legs, at the front!

Summer floral

It has been hot and clammy here for some time now, and the summer flowers are out in all their glory. These are from my favourite walking area that is just on our doorstep, Charlcombe Valley. I will miss it...

My thoughts are with you all.

Croatia

Just back from ten glorious days in Croatia. Beautiful food, plenty of local wine, sun, turquoise sea and friendly people. What more could one wish for? My own little summer paradise.

Herringbone floors

I want these floors! And the cornicing, the windows, the ceiling height and the light. But most of all the floors!

Graphic display

Love this display of illustrations, great selection. And how clever is this coffee table made from sawn off Ikea legs? Love it!

Dreaming of Montenegro

Its been over two years since our Honeymoon in Montenegro, but memories from there still pop into my head, especially this time of year. It was such a beautiful and unspoilt gem (Budva excluding, awful), and we had a wonderful time there. I can highly recommend it if you want a quiet holiday away from it all. Now, we took an obscene amount of photos that we bored everyone to death with once we got home so I have tried to limit my selection, here are some of my favourites from the trip.

Locations: Perast - Kotor - Virpazar

Konfetti Form

Lovely little giveaway over on Konfetti Form in the form of these gorgeous MT Washi tape from her new shop. These pretty little things are so popular at the moment, and I love them. The only problem is trying to choose which design to go for.
