... a present from a dear friend, who knows what I like, she took the time to find this special 'little' vase that means the world to me... ! Thank You. I feel humbled to know you, you are special and you have made a 'little' dream of mine come true today ... the Pollo Vase is now living on my shelf and everytime I look at it it will remind me of you and how unbelievably generous, warm and thoughtful you are!
Oh Lili's what lovely things you have. I was thoroughly enjoying my visit, and it felt like each item had been hand selected. I always like to feel that way when I am shopping, to see that the items purchased are ones that the owner themselves fell in love with. Judging by the about us page, that is exactly what Lili's wants you to feel.
You can find those wonderful geometric pillows here. If you are interested in the cups, you can find them here.
You can find a sweet collection of cards here.

I expected the lady behind Dutch brand HomemadeHappiness, appracadabra and ozowiezo, to live in a beautiful, personal and interesting home, but I was truly very happily surprised when seeing her amazing home this morning right here. So much character, originality and style. Perhaps the collection vintage embroidered birds on the wall above are my favorite. The house is featured this month in one of the Netherlands leading magazines for kids, called Kek Mama. Enjoy the inspiration... quick question, what do you like best in Diana's home?
Artwork like this is so very welcome in my house!!
Ali Noble lives and works in Sydney and he likes Neon details just as much as I do :)
&Tradition from Copenhagen is one of my favorite design companies. With designers like Arne Jacobsen, Benjamin Hubert, Kai Linke and Verner Panton in their house you can only assume how many nice things their collection carries.
Today I want to highlight the Topan VP6 haning lamp designed by Verner Panton. The beautiful black matte with golden inside is my favorite but the lamp comes in many different colors. I found the beautiful images of this loft were the lamp is featured at the website of &Tradition but were made by NORM architects. ...more about them real soon :) ... more pictures >>>
Very nice to see Jessica Nielsen's new collection pillows, the bold and colorful patterns are so nice with spring coming soon.

It was the blog YellowTrace that made me want to list up some of my favorites that I can find online from the Stockholm Furniture Fair and design week 2012. I am sure many more designs will be added to this list throughout the year but let's finnish this week with some amazing new furniture designs and one crazy funny Kitchen tool see below...
I've been on the hunt (again) for some new items for my house, and was happily wasting time at Haus Interior when I noticed all the lovely wooden items they had added to their shop. They most likely added them a bit ago, but I rarely find the time to shop - so they were new to me and so well designed. I got a kick out of the wooden cake, drink, and cupcake.
I was having such a nice time looking through all the lovely wooden items created by David Stark, that I thought I would look into it a bit more and see what else I could find out. The series is called Wood Shop and appears to be exclusively at Haus Interior. I also saw that Design Sponge had posted about the Wood Shop here and included some nice details about David Stark, that I thought you might apprecaite. You can find those lovely wooden vases here and here.

The new wallpaper collection by Catalina Estrada for Cordonne is just 'cool' . I love the bold patterns and believe what makes it so beautiful is the awesome combination of colors. Not easy to make patterns like these!
Catalina Estrada was born in Colombia but lives in Barcelona since 1999. She brings all the colors and power of Latin-American folklore and refines it with a subtle touch of European sophistication.
What do you think of these wallpapers? Wouldn't they make a room very special?
It was Jeske Weel who told me about the new collection that she saw over at Van Sand.
More images of the new wallpaper collection >>>
These pictures from Lorainne at Grijs make me so calm ... just what I need this morning. After being sick for a couple of days and sitting behind my computer I am completely overwhelmed by the work I need to finnish before the end of this week ...
But the beauty of these plants, pots and images make me relax and think, don't worry it will all be ok in the end.
A little while go i heard Michelle Ogundehin, editor-in-chief from Elle decoration UK say on twitter that BLUE is going to be THE NEW COLOR ...and i don't mind at all especially when looking at this wall above... yes the plates really add some nice touches.
Photographer Per Kjærbye for Bo Bedre made these images of Charlotte Adrian her house in Denmark. Very beautiful apartment i must say. The book shelve below makes me a bit jealous to be honest. Charlotte is a senior designer at Royal Copenhagen, you know one of my favorite porcelain manufacturers. More info and images here.
