Weekend warmer: Roaring fires

Oh how I wish I had a fireplace! One of the things that I love the most about going home to Norway in the winter is sitting in front of a roaring fire with a good book and a glass of wine. Heaven! Until I go home for Christmas, these lovely rooms will have to do.

Christmas reds

This year has seen a lot of white and blue decorations, but to me nothing says Christmas like traditional Scandinavian reds. A little goes a long way towards creating that festive feel.

Seasonal treats

This has been one of my favorite seasonal interiors for ages, have been holding off for the right time to share it with you all. Isn't it gorgeous? Love the amount of furs in this place, makes it all warm and cosy, and I love using seasonal treats as decorations. Not sure how safe that candle wreath is though, probably best not to try this at home. Still, it looks great.

Natural Christmas

Don't you just love the simplicity of this? Natural materials with hints of gold and blue makes for lovely, tranquil Christmas decorations.

Weekend warmers: Cosy Corner

Every home should have a cosy corner where you can curl up in a comfy chair with cup of tea and a good book or the latest interior magazine. A plump cushion, warm blanket and good-looking reading light is mandatory.

     

     

It's beginning to look a lot like.....

I promised myself I would not do any Christmas post until December, or at least until first sunday of advent on the 28th of November. Hard not to get swept away though as so many stunning blog posts are popping everywhere. So here is an almost there, but not yet post, with cosy warm interiors by the talented Swedish photographer Anna Kern.

Weekend warmers: Antlers

I am really fascinated by antlers at the moment. Think it is the connotation to cabins and winter. So on that note, here are some antler filled interiors for you to enjoy. 

    

Knitted interiors

The texture of knitted textiles add a warmth and interest to an interior which I love. This cosy interior takes it to extremes. Maybe not to everyones taste, but I love that rams head above the fire.

Cabin fever

Maybe it is because winter is drawing in, or the fact that I am currently in Norway in the middle of the forest and valleys, but I have recently had a real 'thing' for antlers, animal skins and raw wood. This cabin in the Norwegian mountains tick all the boxes. I can just imagine myself after a long day skiing, curled up on those skins in front of the fire, with a good book and a hot mug of tea. Heaven!
