B&W Inspiration

With all the colours popping around it's easy to forget how good a simple grayscale decor can be. Just reminding myself...

From Our Home

It is high time I  uploaded something from our own home. I was lazy to take pictures until my husband surprised me one day with my favourite flowers which inspired me and shook me a bit from my winterish sleepy lazy mode. 

Actually, I did a moodboard...if you click on the image you can see it larger. 

1. wooden crate Pallet Stores, 2. porcelain dishes Butlers  
3. heart message board Butlers and coasters I made using Marimekko design napkins) 4.Crescendo wallpaper (I don't have that! just liked how it fits) 5. Zara Home napkins (I did buy these :))

ENTRYWAYS

Life begins at home, and home begins with an entryway, so it shouldn't be neglected.
However, it is not an easy task to find both practical and pretty way to de-clutter the entry of a home...I like the approach of turn-it-into-a-display then rather than hide. Adding pattern and colour helps as well. Here are some examples of it done right.
