Pretty

No deep thoughts here today. Just lovely photos by Anna Kern of a gorgeous little home in southern Sweden.

I love the vintage posters paired with the subtle colors on the walls and the punchy prints of the sweet fabrics and that aqua frame;

the easy camaraderie of perfectly mismatched furniture all coexisting in graceful harmony;

...and those stunning yellow doors? Yes, yes, and many times over, yes. And please. And thank you.

As a little side note, I'd like to thank you all again for your kind notes lately - I really appreciate every single one of them.

That's it for now. I hope everyone has a good weekend.

  1. What a beautiful home Maria. I think I could quite easily move in and not change a thing! Wonder if the owners would like me as their house guest ;) Hope you and yours have a wonderful weekend my dear. Hugs ~ Txx

  3. What a gorgeous cheery home - I love when homes have such pretty personalities.
    Sorry your plans aren't going as you had hoped...there's always a reason. :) I'm sure it will present itself but in the meantime you get to show up more pictures of your home which you know I love! :)
    Enjoy your day ~

  13. pretty, indeed! yellow doors are a show stopper! maybe taking the house off the market for a while will be a bit of a relief. something less to wait for. maybe? hopefully. Have a great weekend!

  15. Què casa más linda, María!!! Y esas doble puertas amarillas son bellísimas!!! Irè a conocer su blog ahora mismo.
    Sabes, una amiga mía buscaba una casa para comprar y siempre alguien llegaba primero y la compraba, estaba muy decepcionada... hasta que dijo que volverìa a intentarlo en otra ocasión... y justo entonces un día sin ella esperarlo apareció la casa de sus sueños...
    tal vez tu casa estè esperando a alguien muy especial....
    muchos cariños

  16. I adore those yellow doors. I'm awfully tempted to paint my red door yellow, but then I'd have to change the name of my blog.

  19. Hi Maria. What beautiful photos! Thanks so much for sharing.
    I am glad that you took your house off the market. Selling a home is so stressful. More stressful than buying, I think. Just relax now and enjoy all of the beautiful things that you have done to home. And be glad that you don't have to start over from the beginning. Not quite yet anyway. :)
    Hope you have a great weekend!
    Beth.

  20. Oh how charming! And real. I admire how it looks 'tidied for visitors' rather than 'styled for magazines'.

  25. love it all! how great would it be to wake up to yellow doors every morning? i wish my mismatched furniture coexisted so well together. i'm dealing with a horrible clash right now. if i can ever get myself together and recover one of my chairs with vintage sheets, i think there will be more calm in my living room. thanks for the inspiration!

  31. I'm sorry to hear about the house being off the market. there is always next year and your current home is so lovely that one more year is bearable. And now on to those yellow doors. Just the perfect shade of yellow, not too bright or strong, just lovely.
