I saw these wise words over at the lovely blog pilli pilli a while ago, and I saved them in a file. I have now made a picture that we have placed in our living room, so we always can remind ourselves to find the time…
Thank you all for your sweet comments on my new dresser and the shelf that I´ve made – you are all sweethearts!
I wish you all a wonderful day! I hope you have sunshine too.

As I´ve told you earlier, I think that a home gets extra character if one mixes old furniture with new ones. I´ve been looking for an old dresser for our living room, and this weekend I finally found one at “Finn.no”.

The dresser was already painted in white, so I saved myself some work. *smile*

I have to say that I´m very pleased with how it fits in. You can see more pictures of it here if you like.

Do you like to mix old with new?

Interesting patterns, fun color combinations and cool wall art – Just how we know Ferm Living!

Last week I made this shelf that we now have beside of our Nespresso. I think it´s nice to have things that I use often in reach and in an organized way, so when I saw a similar shelf over at the lovely blog “House of Svea”, I knew that I wanted to make one too. It´s a great way to add some rustic nature into our otherwise white kitchen.
I treated the shelf with driftwood stain, so it got an older and used look. 
It´s the same one that I used on my dining table and desk.
See more of our kitchen here if you like.
Thank you House of Svea for giving me this idea – I love it!
I truly recommend her blog btw. Her blog is very cute, and it´s filled with great ideas.
Happy new week dear readers!

Let´s have a tour in this charming apartment in Sweden. Usually I like the style to be a little bit rougher, but when I see  cosy and charming homes like this I just have to look…
Wooden floors and walls make it cosy right away.  
Notice the curtain – looks easy to make, right?
 This dining corner is adorable! You can´t go wrong with white, pastel green and lots of pillows.
 
A mix of modern and old gives character to a room – this is a good example.
Pay attention to the red color out in the hallway – how bold! The old window into the kitchen is also a very cute detail.
Simple, but a very cute bedroom. I like the clean look of it.
So what do you think of this apartment? Any details that you like in particular?

Happy weekend!
