It's the Weekend...

Any plans this weekend?
Perhaps a little fall decorating; inside and out?






















Nothing better than a fresh fall apple, right from the tree :)
Have a wonderful fall weekend!

{Fall} House Love

Last year I featured this Summer House in a Winter Holiday post, complete with a thick blanket of snow and a Christmas Tree. This time around I will share different images, more appropriate to fall!

(OK, so I know enough about flowers and blooming bushes to know that the above image was taken in the spring - as the rhododendron blooms in the springtime - BUT the colors in the interior of this house (below) lends itself well to fall, don't you think?) 

Warm and cozy colors mingle with candlelight and a beautiful book! I purchased this book (Rajasthan) and it's completely worth a long afternoon, curled up with a blanket!!!

Weather use for sleeping or simply for a cozy and relaxing spot, this nook is soooo inviting!

Imagine cool weather, the stack of glossy magazines, nowhere to be, and lot and lots of tea lights!! I am in LOVE with the skinny picture ledge, filled with all these different, muted colors of glass and candles... surely they look magical in the evening!!

The warmth of the wood in the kitchen is echoed throughout in other textures such as the pillows in the background... Notice the matte black paint on the walls, the door and the huge light fixture. Lots of glossy surfaces as well throughout this house, helps to bounce the light around! This might be a log cabin painted black, but it is not a black hole, or a cave, but a light filled Scandinavian Summerhouse, dressed for fall with lots of texture and wonderful fabrics!

Look at that amazing piece of artwork on the wall!! Entirely made up from butterflies... and I love how the over sized urns are perfect in scale!

Peaceful exteriors as well! ;)
It is very common in Scandinavia to paint woodwork black, and I really like how it plays off of the naturally weathered decking...

Wonderful terrace to enjoy the last days of summer, and with the outdoor fireplace, why not stay outside just a little longer? I am happy to see this house clad in fall colors, hope you enjoyed it as well!!

Red Fall Leaves

I am back in Florida... and I had a little time to search for this A.MA.ZING image! Just as I was leaving Scandinavia to head back, the leaves started to change their colors. We don't see that here, and that is something I miss... the true change of seasons!

Hope you have a wonderful early fall weekend, where ever you are! Any plans??
(or spring if you are in the southern hemisphere..)

It's the Weekend...

Look what I found....
A fantastic collection of the ever popular SAMER bracelets. All the bracelets have handcut reindeer antler buttons as clousures, and come in many different sizes....

Other parts of the BeChristensen collection include handcut coral Skull charms. Personally, the skull thing is not for me....  These bracelets have 18k gold beads, and some are made with leather.

I know, I know... one thing has nothing to do with the other...         or do they? My thought was that not only do the colors work, but so does the materials! The leather, the stone, the circles (beads), the gold, the black, the wood.... What do you think?

Have a great weekend!
I will be back with more cool stuff from Denmark later!!

A new Day...

Evoking the feeling of fall...
The other day I visited the brand new Day Home store in Aarhus, and was able to see and touch some of these beautiful pillows! The colors are so pretty, and with fall just around the cornor, I could have been tempted to buy one of each!! But, both my mother and I fell in love with a pretty little black box, ingraved with a delicate design, and kept closed with a little piece of horn.... We did not buy it, but one never knows what might happen before I leave :)

Continuing with the fall theme, this bedroom has been dressed in fall colors, ever so slightly...
Notice the pretty moss green velvet pillows on the bed, as well as the bench at the end of the bed, upholstred in the same velvet.

Have a cozy evening!
