A pared-back forest cabin in Holland

A lovely light-filled Swedish family home

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">This is the oh so lovely light-filled Swedish family home of photographer, stylist, <a href="http://mokkasin.blogspot.se/" target="_blank">blogger</a> and owner of the fab shop <a href="http://www.mokkasin.com/sv/" target="_blank">Little Cute Mokkasin</a>, Sofia Jansson, musician Kristo Jansson and their children. All the floors and walls have been painted a serene white save for pretty floral accent walls and vintage wallpaper which bounce around the light flooding in through the large windows and make the home feel bright even on the darkest of days. The relaxed family home has been furnished using a mix of old and new. I particularly love the industrial spotlights and the vintage black board (great alternative to a painted chalkboard wall) in the kitchen, and the mid-century and incredible glass fronted storage cabinet in other parts of the house (what a great place to store creative items?). Such a lovely, relaxed home.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEj9xt1zZNU6dNfoAzL31t2tTPvygDMWk7X31yTWv_RNkBOjflOa9F2PbzW6G-uKnEwHzyZ7x20o6ZWkSN_EpoxGZkdQTnREVIlgv4b3gzm12akfwayMXmOiLDwNC64yWJHlzdwodkUsY/s1600/SJ1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

One of my friends Liz bought a second hand piano recently (she's a bit of a music genius) and it got me thinking about how nice it would be to have a piano in my own home. Do you have any musical instruments in your home?<br /><br />Is there anything that stands out to you?<br /><br />Yesterday I worked as a stylist on a shoot at an incredible farmhouse in Skåne. It was so much fun. I thought I'd share some of the lessons learned in case you're interested.<br /><br /><b>Tips for interior styling (on a shoot):</b><br />- Bring tools- blu tac, gaffer tape, scissors, wire, clips<br />- For props it's worth taking along plants and flowers which match the style of the space. Think of the type of activity you would like to show in the kitchen / dining area to bring it to life  (for example you might want to buy buns or a cake for afternoon tea, bread, jams etc for breakfas. If you've seen the space beforehand or have an idea of the look you're going for, you can strengthen it with the props you bring.<br />- When styling the room think about what the photo is for - if it's to show how someone lives try not to make the space look too perfect. I would also recommend not taking away too many personal items or you'll lose the character of the space.<br />- Look closely at the details of the shot in a laptop - is there a rogue bright red car hiding under the bed, an unsightly cable or even dust on the floor / surface? Remove anything that will save time in re-touch.<br /><br />And now for day two. <br /><br />Have a lovely day!<br /><br /></div>

A lovely Danish student's home - revisited!

It's fascinating to see how a home evolves over the space of a year (Julie shares all the changes on IG <a href="https://instagram.com/juliewp/" target="_blank">here</a>). I love the rustic wood beams,  day bed (oh how I could kick back there right now with a magazine) and that <i>fab </i>bike!

A relaxed boho family home in Florida

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Good morning! And what a lovely sunny, spring-like start to the week it is here in Southern Sweden (if a little cold still - BRRR!). It definitely calls for a happy, colourful space.  And what better than this home in the sunshine state of Florida? Belonging to Macrame artist Elizabeth McTigue, husband Tim and three children Maren, Ezra and Ida, the home is artfully decorated with macrame <a href="https://www.etsy.com/se-en/search?q=macrame+wall+hanging&order=most_relevant&view_type=gallery&ship_to=SE&spelling_accepted=Macreme+wall+hanging" target="_blank">wall hangings, </a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/se-en/search?q=macrame%20plant%20holders&view_type=gallery" target="_blank">plant holders</a>, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/se-en/shop/TribeAndTemple?ref=l2-shopheader-name" target="_blank">embroidered cushions</a> and furnished with a great mix of rattan and mid-century furniture. The result is a relaxed and happy family home - and everything wonderful about Spring 2015 boho interiors. <br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinXqdvIoqXmhMziA7KME9CmfvX2Ku83PETh3DgSap8RDxOWfw4UAYLdIkxACu1uYe5jZVCzQ9bT5Jx5bxjhlhnm5FV3WKfi03kgj7p3N6SdA3p686c9dtK89c4YvDa-XDTyIY9xq-kSsg/s1600/hls4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
