When we were in Brazil a few weeks ago, I found this coral on the beach. I like this souvevenir that turned into a deco object.

Thank you so much for all your really sweet comments and for participating on the giveaway I was hosting together with Normann Copenhagen. 150 of you participated, so it was a little much to reply to all of your comments personally, but know that I read every single one of them.

The lucky (and random) winner of the Geo set is Linda Wilson, congratulations Linda ! You will receive a personal email soon so we can arrange for you to receive the price.

There still a long winter time ahead of us (at least here in Berlin it has been quite a mild winter for now) but I’m already very much looking forward to spring. As much as I like winter decorations, I get pretty excited about some colored items at home when spring is around the corner.

You already saw the Normann Copenhagen Buk legs in our dining room before, which now I paired up with a tin white plywood top. I like how this way all the attention goes to the beautifully crafted wood legs.

On top of the table you can see the Geo set in soft pink, which is a dream come true for coffee lovers like us. I’m always a little careful with colors in our home, but these soft pink and nude tones are so delicate and subtle. I had been looking for a thermos for keeping coffee and tea during the day, but never found one that was worth leaving on the table as a decorative item like this one. Now Normann introduced storage jars, a milk jug and a tray to the Geo collection and I’m very happy to announce that I have teamed up with them for a giveaway. Now you can win a Geo Milk Jug, Sugar bowl, tray and Vacuum Jug for your home as well.

All you have to do to make a chance at winning this lovely set is visit the Normann Copenhagen website and add a comment to this blogpost with the color combination you’d like to win. The giveaway will run until midnight this Sunday (Berlin time) and the winner will be announced on Monday morning next week. Good luck to you all !

Christmas is over (I will miss the cozy times, but am excited for the new year), so I got rid of the little Christmas decorations we had in the house. There’s always this feeling of emptiness which I find quite boring right when you take away these decorations, so this new Fancy Finger pillow by Lucky boy Sunday was exactly the playful element our living room needed. It’s such a soft piece. I also got the Menu wire basket I had been eyeing on for a long time to store blankets and placed my ‘Scratched Calendar’ above the sofa.

I always have a lot of clips, rulers, stickers, notebooks … you name it, laying around on my desk. Designing and shipping posters has made it quite challenging to keep my desk organised to say the least. I got this Vitra toolbox from my boyfriend as a Christmas present (together with this glass paperweight, and the Tom Dixon golden ruler). It certainly made my job of organising (and find things back more importantly) a lot easier and I love how it looks on my desk.

I still can’t believe how fast Christmas has come this year. For all I know, it was just a few days ago that we said goodbye to summer. That (and the busy holiday shipping times for my shop) probably explains why I’m so late with my Christmas decorations this year. They kind of came to appear gradually: first a little on the table, now on the cupboard. I’ve added some plants inside our glass domes (a pine and a tropical non-christmas kind) and laid out some decorations on two Broste Copenhagen Esrum plates. I like the results, which we will enjoy for two more days, before we are travelling to Belgium and Porto.

I’m all for Christmas markets with a lot of Christmas lights and jingle bells, but at home, I like to keep the Christmas decorations simple. I just bought some eucalyptus and a pine branch, which I spread over different vases in our home and planted a little flower in my Iittala candle holder. I think this little setting on our table came out nicely and I certainly like to look at it in the cold evenings.

This weekend our heating in our apartment broke down. As much as I like winter coziness and cuddling up in wool blankets, I did not appreciate this cold temperatures in our home. I was able to catch this beautiful winter light beaming through our bedroom window this weekend, that was lovely.
