Springtime Goodies

spring decor

Just a few spring fresh goodies I’ve bookmarked these last weeks. Above left gorgeous still life on retro drawer via solid frog, and right a flower bonanza via living etc. This pic below – via johanna’s vintage blog – represents, in my mind, stylish Swedish countryside living. A lovely mix.

Posted on 2013/04/13 by Mia in Dusty Pastels, Mild Wall Colours, nature & urban farming, SS 2013

In the usual pastel palette of spring, I find sienna especially interesting this year! Shades ranging from rusty burnt-orange to warm taupe (left; via the very useful site who what wear) here together with a lovely sienna-ish wall, right, from the fresh new issue of Elle Decoration.

Choosing a colour scheme is, I think, one of the key pursuits in decorating. This time a year, it’s all about those crispy fresh and joyful hues, bringing new life after the warming winter colours. I really like the subtle mix above, as well as the brighter hues below.

This spring, I’m extra fond of patterns like the ones below. Not to mention the gorgeous colours! This post pretty much sums up my spring 2013 fav colour schemes. Happy March!

My warmest thanks to you all, including the 525! fans on Facebook – if it weren’t for you, Trendey would be of no use. 2013 will probably be a quiet year in terms of blogging, but please browse around on what we’ve got. Find the categories in the footer. And keep discussing – interiors is fun!

Now may your world be filled with warmth, joy and cheer,
In the Fresh and New Happy Year!

Interesting Rug/Headboard!

Posted on 2012/12/30 by Mia in Bedroom, Headboards, Rugs

rugJust a quick note to share this very interesting version of a headboard! Creative, I think. Although I would have gone one step further and hung some oversized white rice paper lamps in the ceiling and skipped those reading lamps. For example. It isn’t even half-done this room, but there’s an embryo of a nice idea. Or let’s say, it’s a good try! | pic via Bostadsrättsspecialisten |

Finest Xmas Style

Posted on 2012/11/09 by Mia in Christmas!, country, Dining/Living room, DIY Holiday Decor, eclectic, Wood+Metal

None of you thought the post on spring trends 2013 came too early so I’m sure you won’t mind some Xmas spirit already! Loving this pic above from toast. Simple but smashing Christmas decor.  The colours are marvellous, loving that blue! And would love to have that front door…

For some reason I’m attracted to this left pic above (unfortunately I’ve forgotten where I found it) Think it denotes to the magnificent idea of decorating an old barn. And it’s an expession of the wood, wood and wood trend!  The pic to the right (via lantliv) has been on almost every (Swedish) decor blog this week. It’s nice. Very lightly Christmassy, which is great considering it’s a day to remove it all too. Also, the prefect DIY tips, why not spray your jolliest Xmas message on a piece of furniture! (and paint it over by tjugondag Knut).

Lastly, again a reminder Christmas decor need not be a knockout. Just simple, cozy & warming. Have a lovely pre-Xmas time!
