The art of giftwrapping

My favourite thing about Christmas presents is wrapping them. I try to do something different each year, all tough I am very much partial to brown paper. I am drawing some inspiration from these lovely images, now I just have to buy the contents first.

Patina

This house from the 1920s is full of pretty patina, and tells a story of the lives lived within its walls.

At home with Tine

It comes as no surprise that the home of Tine Kjeldsen, the woman behind Tine K Home, is simply stunning. Inspired by nature, and filled with light and soft hues this warm and inviting home has a subtle approach to christmas decorating. Yes I know it is maybe a bit early for christmas posts, but when it is done this beautifully, I couldn't help but share.

Neutral mix

Loving the black and white and wood mix at the moment.

Kitchen mix

The flat we are moving to has not got a kitchen yet, so while we are waiting these beauties caught my eye. Clean lines and neutral colours mixed with metal and wood. So lovely!

Sunday mix

More than a week back home in Norway and it feels very natural to be here. Busy settling into a routine, but here is a small collection of images that have caught my eye the last week.

Line Klein

Some of you might already have discovered the beautiful images of Danish photographer Line Klein, but if you haven't I would highly recommend having a look at her inspiring blog or her website. Originally a food and portrait photographer, she also has some stunning interior and still life images which I just had to share.

Thank you!

How lovely is this space? Gorgeous high ceilings and massive windows together with the concrete walls just makes for such an amazing combo. The natural wood and linen keeps it from getting to cold and industrial. Love it!

I have had a great few weeks on the blog, lots of new people finding their way here. Thanks to all of you for your support and great comments. It makes it so much more fun to know that I am part of something greater here in blogland, and not just ranting to myself. 

Also want to take this opportunity to thank the lovely Jo and Kim over on Desire to Inspire for sending so much love my way the last week. Such an honour to be mentioned not just once, but twice. Thank you girls!

Bright white

Great space filled with lots of light. Stripped back to the bare essentials, but left with lots of character. I love how they have painted some of the beams but left others in their original state.
