ciff youth 2019

  Things that caught my eye at Ciff Youth. When young in the '70/'80 Jens Storms bag always take you down memory lane. Bigger bags and pencil case was new to me. Pinecone was new to Ciff - a tumbling furniture/pillow among others, that had a soft cover, for the kids to play on, from resting as a newborn to toddlers to jump from and balancing while playling. Washable and easy to stack into a block.
LiiLu a German brand that is all about natural colors, organic and sustainable.

simplifying a christmas heirloom

The other day when I Christmas shopping with my family in Malmö I came around these candle light holders "WHIRLABOUT" from the Dutch design company De Intuïtiefabriek. I was amazed, I love the way they have transformed and simplified a to me known and beloved Christmas item "the Spinning Chime Candle Holder". They made a purely Christmas item in to an everyday design item for the modern home, with success.

giant year calendar

Some time ago I went to a trade fair where I saw this great year calendar – such a ”simple” idea and yet a great idea, for the slow living life.
I guess the inspiration was from a pages from a good old note book.

Take control of next year's many plans - se them all and more here: Yearcalendar

a furniture for mess

Boidem is a furniture for mess and a pretty one. When I saw it in Frankfurt in the beginning of the year I must admit that I fell in love with the idea. I guess it is not a new idea to raise a basket or similar up to the ceiling, but with simple and aesthetic design it is easy to use it in a modern home with kids. Great design from the cotten rope to the wooden knob where you attach the rope.

See more of Boidem here.

spring and afternoon tea at perch's

Yesterday at the afternoon tea party at Perch's tea room in Copenhagen, it was minus 10 outside, clear sky and bright sun, the perfect day to enjoy high tea in company with Royal Copenhagen and all their new products.
We were served with 4 different royal pots of 4 different warm and tasteful teas, accompanied by finger sandwiches, scones, lemon curd and a cake stand full of amazing cakes.
The tea room was set by Royal Copenhagen china and decorated with poppies and branches to set the feeling of spring.

sweep the floors with andrée jardin

At Maison & objects I just had to stop at Andree Jardin - so much nostalgia, almost make you want to sweep the floor rigth there. Love that they dare to put colors on. (shop)

spring at royal copenhagen

Maybe spring is closer than we think - love the feeling. 
But I still love winter when the sun shines across the snow and makes it glitter like silver stars. Days like today snow is welcome.
