Hemstitched
by Sofia - in Interior design Shopping
Sometimes happiness is finding something super extravagant and special to your home. Sometimes it comes in the form of a good old classic and some necessities. My friend Susanna reminded me of the Zara home collection and it is pretty good at the moment. They have great old fashioned household items that I have not seen, or noticed before. But this time I ordered something I really needed. I love a good old hemstitched anything. These white coasters are as classic as they come and as we have marble countertops in the kitchen we are always urging everyone to use one in our house. I ordered twelve as I am looking forward to a better time when I can invite people to my home again and I am adamant to serve cocktails with pretty coasters. I also got a few place mats for the kitchen island as my girls have their breakfast there on week mornings and yet again we like to cover the marble with a little something. These look so fresh.

Have a lovely weekend
by Sofia - in Interior design
Toivottavasti viikkosi on ollut onnistunut! Omani on ollut vähän niin ja näin. Hyviä ja vähemmän hyviä hetkiä vuorotellen. Sitähän elämä on. Viikonloppuna aion ottaa rennosti. En kiirehdi mihinkään. Vielä yksi kuppi kahvia sängyssä on päiväni motto jo tänään. Jaoin vähän kuvia olohuoneestamme, joku näistä olikin jo nähtävillä One Design Clubin haastattelussani. Voit lukea tekstin täältä.
I hope you are all having a good week. Mine has been a bit of this and then a bit of that. But all in all it seems to be ending in a positive note. But I think I will give myself permission to drink one extra cappuccino under the covers in my nightie before facing the world. Sometimes a girl needs to treat herself. And sometimes for two days in a row. But while I´m at it I might as well share some more home decor pictures as you seem to all like them the best. You may have seen a picture or two of this room at my One Design Club feature.

En suite
by Sofia - in Featured Interior design
I finally got around to taking some pictures of our home thanks to a little nudge from Clara of One Design Club in England who was kind enough to want to feature me in one of her “at home with” posts. It will be out soon in March, I will let you know when if you might be interested to read what my answers to her five interior questions were or to see a few more glimpses of our home. And as I had promised you some pictures of the new little marble table in our bathroom I thought I would share it at the same time. I had been looking for a little table to add there as I and the girls love taking baths and reading books or even watching an episode of our favourite show whilst in there. When I saw the ever so stylish Rebecca´s bathroom picture with a little marble side table by her bath I was sure I should need one like it too. And I found just the one on a walk with a friend. It´s actually officially a flower pot pedestal but just the perfect height and size in our bath.
En suite sounds very fancy and I guess having a walk in closet and bathroom adjoined to our bedroom is wonderful. So the room featured here is the bathroom I share with my husband and it is an continuation to our walk in closet that then continues on to our bedroom as a row of closets. We have a his and hers sink, a toilet with a sliding door for privacy in case we are there at the same time, a large shower and a bath tub.
