Posted on 2012/09/12 by Mia in Art & Illustrations, AW2012, Birds & insects, industrial vintage, scandinavian

The trendy entomologist is now highly present also in IKEA‘s pics! There’s been quite a lot of circulation lately of the butterfly poster BILD with motif by Maria Mendez (priced $12/£10!) and the brand new canvas SIBBARED by Kai Legaard and Tina Christensen. IKEA nowadays makes it so easy to hop on (and off) current [...]

Trendey has been awfully quiet lately..!  I’m busy saving the world, and if not Henen decides on a sudden comeback, this slow is how it’ll stay a couple more months. To spice up the place a little, here’s some views from my favourite room. Firstly, note that I put my grey skirt on the Ge’-lamp. [...]

Library Wallpaper

Posted on 2011/10/24 by Mia in Wallpapers
library_multi_wallpaper_600

I’ve totally lost myself in all amazing wallpapers around right now. So just this only one more before I can go on with my life. Books in decor has been emphasized a lot lately, and we’ve seen book-wallpapers before (like the Tracey Kendall/Anthropologie version) but never ever have I seen a book/library wallpaper as nice [...]

This is my fav pic from Living Etc‘s August 2011 issue. From Sibella Court’s Sydney home. Described as a look that’s about personality, texture and the here and now. When asked to sum her style she says:  flotsam and jetsam, globetrotting, bowerbird. Oh my…I had to google them all! Well not globetrotting – one of [...]

Some displays & frame groupings

Posted on 2011/06/29 by Mia in Collectables & Still Life, DIY for Walls.., Frame Groupings, Globes

This is a home decor chapter I find really interesting: frame groupings and displays. A person’s home actually tells a story about that person. If not about nerdy interests and exotic adventures (or the love for white and cleanliness ;)), it does say a lot about what is dear to that human. In my opinion [...]

beigeish & soft relaxation

Posted on 2011/06/17 by Mia in Bathroom, Bedroom, ethnic, globetrotter style
via abigail ahern blog

This picture from the front cover of World of Interiors June 2011 issue really appeals to me. It steams vacation and relaxation. In an exotic faraway place (like Morocco :)) The ethnic/grobetrotter trend that smashed in late spring seems to have gone on holiday but I am convinced it’ll be back full furce once it’s [...]

Grandpa’s Old Kitchen Couch

Posted on 2011/05/16 by Mia in DIY With Textiles, Mild Wall Colours, Paint Choices, trendey homes, With a Coat of Paint
kitchen couch

Another project is finished! Some weeks ago I brought this traditional old ‘kitchen couch’ back with me after cleaning out Grandparents’ house. I figured a kitchen couch would do equally well in a bedroom. Unfortunately I have no before-pic, but it had its original pine look, was bit dirty, and was wearing some worn reddish [...]
