Swedish calligrapher Ylva Skarp's cosy winter home

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Swedish calligrapher and designer<a href="http://shop.ylvaskarp.se/en/" target="_blank"> Ylva Skarp</a> knows how to create a beautiful home at Christmas (see it all decked out <a href="http://www.myscandinavianhome.blogspot.se/2012/11/ylva-skarps-christmassy-home.html" target="_blank">here</a>). This winter she's created a cosy feel in her country home using sheepskin throws draped over armchairs, ottomans and dining chairs. You can see evidence of her work in various forms throughout the home- on fabric, in prints, engraved in the concrete floor and spontaneously written on blackboards. Such a personal home, don't you think?!  <br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-mrbd0Q2zqSDMT6acQlRt8a0C5npRyx1Bc7n84noUqjxxtJR8Y-DdpGQYMvckFyhc5f50WLlSJ1d_DCAIMQBRwjG7C0FhPBzXFf8yMPvrr7Ql6u69j6FA7hKAOvJkFNR4C8GEa6qzSZNu/s1600/ys1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-mrbd0Q2zqSDMT6acQlRt8a0C5npRyx1Bc7n84noUqjxxtJR8Y-DdpGQYMvckFyhc5f50WLlSJ1d_DCAIMQBRwjG7C0FhPBzXFf8yMPvrr7Ql6u69j6FA7hKAOvJkFNR4C8GEa6qzSZNu/s1600/ys1.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-TjAwqRuKcQXYo3iLhOM138NoAFVQYjZE3n3zP_NUUjJPQXXgHsKhXpE6YuiztGB_2zpkh1regGqBtzDsDVdTLq1Kzr7khb2pFrxlKdtHmBQihrbacK-ms5Qg9fio_wefx2hNVnC51Yqb/s1600/ys2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-TjAwqRuKcQXYo3iLhOM138NoAFVQYjZE3n3zP_NUUjJPQXXgHsKhXpE6YuiztGB_2zpkh1regGqBtzDsDVdTLq1Kzr7khb2pFrxlKdtHmBQihrbacK-ms5Qg9fio_wefx2hNVnC51Yqb/s1600/ys2.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilNuSSmkAKoo1D80uUuh8odWdnJEQJnTHQWqSDdyBx0xD4WbFR_DAJrb8l9m_AbZdS3nNUf_K7O9NyMn24f6NaQmWoU4gYomGmZ3Ho-8-k1Jp1-Qu1i1Sodde_R9Yv7AUhGYHjCmIQwO4Q/s1600/ys5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilNuSSmkAKoo1D80uUuh8odWdnJEQJnTHQWqSDdyBx0xD4WbFR_DAJrb8l9m_AbZdS3nNUf_K7O9NyMn24f6NaQmWoU4gYomGmZ3Ho-8-k1Jp1-Qu1i1Sodde_R9Yv7AUhGYHjCmIQwO4Q/s1600/ys5.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKVF2vynPz28ihzDPL3OHcWDaiF1TQjNpbNxnLOMCzsQ7flHHVA5vkdD1eNgxXXdLNNO12txEBg74q60PsioaNRVJapjXor4Q5yQvwasH0IOahSC7Vb9gny1sCdjWbPuGmisJpKNX7CS5a/s1600/ys4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKVF2vynPz28ihzDPL3OHcWDaiF1TQjNpbNxnLOMCzsQ7flHHVA5vkdD1eNgxXXdLNNO12txEBg74q60PsioaNRVJapjXor4Q5yQvwasH0IOahSC7Vb9gny1sCdjWbPuGmisJpKNX7CS5a/s1600/ys4.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrHeA4d36zcrJ12DOhtfJeBS4Y4hdaDW23ntH3Q18PC6jY1te8CuKFEThzJM_ZExMKLtZmrqLC8u1yl8JL58z7ujtPSCwq9FzQos1ZR8aJKsWWNaCxBB7s-mCfP68PYS80uDGqrbTqyflP/s1600/ys7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrHeA4d36zcrJ12DOhtfJeBS4Y4hdaDW23ntH3Q18PC6jY1te8CuKFEThzJM_ZExMKLtZmrqLC8u1yl8JL58z7ujtPSCwq9FzQos1ZR8aJKsWWNaCxBB7s-mCfP68PYS80uDGqrbTqyflP/s1600/ys7.jpg" /></a></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1bvTvOtETEDYUIvHMMrkAeE24I-N5hlsbgRwB5cy0qApbea2UV_lXtvjNtFxn78gyPDgAHok9G36Y1hQN_9ZYbv84mWmqmjEINdAMFpfbMxm4OJc2Zjq1QbsJinlHCe4N96kEZ6iYPEFV/s1600/ys6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1bvTvOtETEDYUIvHMMrkAeE24I-N5hlsbgRwB5cy0qApbea2UV_lXtvjNtFxn78gyPDgAHok9G36Y1hQN_9ZYbv84mWmqmjEINdAMFpfbMxm4OJc2Zjq1QbsJinlHCe4N96kEZ6iYPEFV/s1600/ys6.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://shop.ylvaskarp.se/en/" target="_blank">Expressen</a>.

A charming fisherman's cottage on Sweden's South coast

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Hello! I hope you had a great weekend?! We had a bank holiday here, so my family and I took off for my brother-in-laws summer cottage where we played croquet, swam in the sea and sipped Prosecco - oh so relaxing, I do love a long weekend don't you?! With iut's beautiful coastline, living in Southern Sweden has its advantages particularly in the summer (the winter is a another story...). Yesterday I was having a sneek peak at what's for sale here right now (one of my favourite pastimes, is that sad?! Please tell me you do the same?) and I came across this charming thatched cottage by the sea. The restored<a href="http://www.hemnet.se/bostad/villa-8rum-boste-fiskelage-trelleborgs-kommun-lojtnant-flinths-vag-38-40-6329785" target="_blank"> fisherman's cottage</a> is my idea of heaven. It's not far from Sweden's most southern point - <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smygehuk" target="_blank">Smygehuk</a>, an idyllic fishing harbour where you can feast on the catch of the day. Tempted?!<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkPfS5RrPrVVusGA1UjDcQHZ3qAbNqHYtp8V4sn9ZGJh5GRypo4rpqlCgRYdjYSIZ2bcir4IaP3iEYbeDu6OiBV0t79xnyJZj8gYSPGxJBB8v4uenEWDfx_VrKW5WyS8UZQISFObc9CV4/s1600/cottage9.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

A beautiful Swedish home and creative studio.

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">I do love the home of an artist don't you? Their natural creativity nearly always shines through. Take this home and studio for example. It belongs to a friend of Swedish stylist and <a href="http://stilinspiration.blogspot.se/2014/04/a-beautiful-creative-home-in-constant.html" target="_blank">blogger</a> <a href="http://www.pellahedeby.com/" target="_blank">Pella Hedeby</a> (who is responsible for the styling on this shoot). According to Pella the home is even more beautiful, relaxed and comfortable in real life and constantly evolves with the seasons.
