I fancy a book bag.

 Louise Roe the brilliant Danish designer behind one of our best selling cushions, "The Book cushion" also designs clothes and accessories. I'm in love with her photo print, "Book Bag" but  seeing that I'm already carrying half of my possessions around with me, its generous size may just prove too tempting for me! What do you think? Can a bag ever be too large?... -->

Kind By Nature

Kind By Nature is the name behind a very special Danish web shop. In this shop things are made by hand and with kindness & love, which surely has to be a good thing! So with that in mind I went shopping and had a fantastic time.

You will find my favourites below


I'm a long time admirer of the edgy Batgirl but found that the competition was  fierce and she was soon joined by a gang of seriously cool contenders!

Loving a good stylist...

I have just come across these beautiful images over on VosgesParis. Desiree and Paulina went to photograph the apartment after it had been furnished and styled by the Dutch magazine, "VT Wonen."  The result is great don't you think?

The Nordic Home of Silje Aune Eriksen

This cool home of the Norwegian ceramic designer Silje Aune Eriksen was recently featured In Elle Decoration Norway.  For me the real star of this home is the STOOL! Would you believe it?!  I the lover of all things  in white and moody grey colours actually want to run home, and attack all  available table legs with a spray can!

A great way with pipes...

I have just come across this unusual and impressive DIY project on the Finnish blog  Weekday Carnival, I'll be honest, I had no idea that there were so many ways to be creative with pipes! Loving the whole mood board thing going on in the background too!

Very COOL no?

The Fabulous Goose ...

I adore the Danish brand  Fabulous Goose and I'm over the moon finally to have it in my shop!
The patterns for the baby and kids blankets are cut by hand out of paper, inspired by the great H.C. Andersen and the way he made the paper cuts for his fairy tales.

The blankets are nostalgic as well as contemporary & just sooooo cute!

Check out our new Hookies clothes hangers the kids hangers with a retro feel! I remember them from my childhood when I used them for my dolls clothes! Sweet

A fashionable stay in Amsterdam - anyone?

I have just come across these amazing images in Rum, the photos are from Hotel the Exchange in Amsterdam. All the rooms have been dressed  by student from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute to look like models on a catwalk, so staying at the Exchange would be like visiting a fashion house surrounded by all the paraphernalia associated with this creative environment! Love it!

A truly inspired concept ...

Graphic Heaven!

For someone who finds it near impossible to resist cool typeface and monochrome posters, a visit to the Playtype Concept store is a must! You can ACTUALLY browse for your preferred typeface;  I reckon it's as close to graphic heaven as it gets....

Easter cuteness

I first came across Spagat, a graphic design agency on PureDeco. Within minutes I was swooning over their seriously cool studio and the very cute Easter decorations. Designed by the owner Sidsel Gaustadnes,  these cuties are certain to make a splash this Easter.
                                                                  ♡  

Spagat, the name behind this charming design translates to doing the splits!
