New Blog Love

This is not just a new-to-me-blog, this is one of those BRAND NEW blogs, that I already expect SO MUCH from it's scary :)

The Danish super brand Tine K Home, has redone their website and added a blog! YEAH!! 
This will let us get a sneak peak behind the scenes, and I for one will be checking back often as I just LOVE most things TKH!!!!!! (I am even lucky enough to have a few of her things, fortunately they have made the trip across the Atlantic in one piece.)

Products from the new season; leather keyring (I must have one of these), small decorative handmade jars and tagines....

That tray... I can just imagine how "soft" that dark phantom glaze is! L.O.V.E.!

While the novelty of these Chinese brushes have worn off a little, I still think they make for a wonderful textural element. All grouped together like this, they look fantastic, I want to pick one up and feel the bristles, especially the white one....

In 2010 I featured the home of Tine K, you can re-visit here. Her home is so perfectly done, kept to a very strict color scheme. I like that she is so true to the Nordic taste and her home reflect what she "preaches", but then again, she IS the trend setter of home decor in Scandinavia! 

Mixing the cool vibe of the north with tons of exotic texture and making it all work so interestingly. Excited to see what she will feature next in her decor line, as well as on her blog! Stay tuned :)

New Blog Love

... Meet Anna-Malin of Helt Enkelt Hos Mig! This blog is quintessential Nordic design, Nordic living and the photography is DIVINE!

Anna-Malin shares her home with us, one of my favorite spots is in her kitchen where she collects cups and bowls. They are displayed so many different ways through the year, depending on the season... I TOTALLY get this obsession with the Tine K products, they are just the coolest!!








































... Actually I am lucky to have a few of my own, but that will be a post for another day :)

How pretty is this little vignette? Hand picked Anemones, a tea light and a beautiful bowl, to me it doesn't get much better than this! Anne-Marlins photography is wonderful, she really understands how to capture that special Scandinavian light.
I encourage you to visit Helt Enkelt Hos Mig, I am sure you will enjoy the blog, and if you do not read Swedish, well then the translator button is your best friend :)

Go on... Go explore!!
Tell Anna-Marlin I sent you :)

Really.... ?

OK, so I don't really want to be negative, BUT.... my "New Blog Love" - post from yesterday is completely gone.... comments and all, I AM NOT HAPPY!

I will rebuild :), but it might be a little while, in the meantime I leave you with a wonderful image from the home of Tine K, as a little teaser for all of you who didn't see yesterdays post.

Hope you have a wonderful start to the weekend, TGIF!!

Danish designer and business women, Tine K. made the March 2010 cover with her light filled home.

This is the private residence of Tine K, she and her husband (also her business partner in Tine K Home) lives here along with their children.

While I am a big fan of white painted floors, I must say these shiny dark brown - almost black -

floors are FANTASTIC!!!

A few years back, when visiting Denmark, I picked up one of these silver trays, only in a smaller version, since it had to fit in my suitcase. I have been longing for the large one, and a friend of mine found one for my birthday last year, YEAH! (tx amd)

Texture is what makes this image work for me; the silver tray, the wood shakers, the ceramic containers holding the Asian utensils. Look how beautiful the hole pattern is....

On that same trip back I also picked up six of these soft lavender and white bowls, fortunately they all arrived in one piece!!

What a pretty way to keep everyday items displayed; functional yet beautiful.

Upstairs the floors have been painted white, and a mirror displayed to catch the light.

Great natural light in the bedroom, I could easily sit there writing this blog....

The birdcage has been featured in product shots for the Tine K Home collection, and I guess she couldn't give it up..... never has a feather duster looked so cool!
