Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about A Warm and inviting Home in Rural Sweden - Filled with Vintage Finds. Hello friends. I'm back here after a week off with my family. Last night the Öresund bridge between Sweden and Denmark was once again lit in yellow and blue as we pray for peace and our hearts go out to all those affected. While I continue to share Scandinavian design inspiration here on My Scandinavian Home, please know you are never far from my thoughts.  Today, I felt like re-visiting Nicole's charming country home in North Sweden. It's one I think about often (who can forget the seat by the window from where you can sit and watch salmon jump from the river). Originally from Chile, Nicole has carved out a home in rural Byske, and set up Nicole's Lantgård - an online shop selling vintage and antique furniture.  Every room in Nicole's home is filled with an eclectic mix of well-worn pieces - each with a story to tell. The seco...

Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about Cosy Corner At Home / Short Break! . There's a storm rolling (again) so I thought I'd wrap up the week with some pictures of a very cosy corner in our sitting room where I'm planning too hide-out!  Come spring, the brown tones, sheepskins and blankets will be swapped out for fresh spring blooms and breezy linens. For now, though it's the perfect place to cosy up while the storm rages outside!  Get the look: Ikea Söderhamn sofa with Bemz linen cover* , rug from Natur Pur (more pictures of it here ), wooden table / bench* ,  mug by local Hanna Keramic , wooden bowl* , danish wool blanket from Silkeborg Uldspinderi .  It's the school half term in southern Sweden next week so I'll be taking some down time with the little ladies and Per.  But naturally I'd never leave you without some beautiful Scandi interiors to enjoy!  Here are some of my favourite archives: Danish homes Norweg...

Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about Our Stay at Vår Gård Saltsjöbaden in the Stockholm Archipelago . Sponsored by Vår Gård Saltsjöbaden Is it me or do the first few months of the year always feel a little intense? Take last week, for example: work, food shopping, children's activities, a car that needed fixing, by the time Friday arrived I was completely dishevelled! And then I remembered Per and I had a weekend trip planned. it couldn't have come at a better time! As our train pulled out of Malmö and raced through the Swedish countryside, my pulse lowered with every lake, forest and river we passed. So much so, that by the time we stepped off the train at Vår Gård Saltsjöbaden  in the Stockholm archipelago with the sea and islands stretched out before us, all the stress of the week completely fell away.  I couldn't think of a more peaceful place to  varva ner (unwind). Here are a few snapshots from our weekend, in the hope that...

Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about A Harmonious Stockholm Apartment Furnished with Vintage Finds. This lovely Swedish apartment caught my eye this morning. There was something about it that felt familiar and yet at the same time unique. Nestled on the second floor of an early 1920's building in Stockholm, the one bedroom flat has been decorated in soothing tones of white, beige, and a hint of green. The furniture is a perfect blend of vintage and mid-century finds - with every piece unique - and a nod to some of the biggest Scandinavian trends of the moment: conical shapes, fluffy rugs and plenty of linen. let's take a look around!  What a lovely, harmonious apartment.  It's on the market - a hard space to leave but from looking at the shared bedroom, I can only guess the family have out grown it. Might you be the next owner?  Fancy taking a look around a few other Stockholm homes today? Here are a few of my favourites:...

Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about A Playful Danish Home With The Cutest Boys' Room. Up for something playful today? In her Instagram bio, Julia describes her content as ''fairly ordinary every day and motherly life'' but looking at the pictures, her cheerful home on the Danish coast is far from it. In fact, there's a joyful touch around every corner thanks to Julia's ''great penchant for quirks, colours, flowers and nice finds' - not to mention art! I particularly like her son's room which is bursting with eye catching pieces from prints and planets to playful patterns and lots of furry friends. These cheery touches transcend into other parts of the home in the form of colour, pattern, flowers and art. Ready to take a tour?  Rather than covering the entire room in colour, Julia has selected accent walls and worked with them to create a focal point.  Her son's room has been painted half blue for t...
