As you all know I’m a big fan of Scandinavian interiors, so I thought the lovely home of this young couple was worth sharing. It’s a bit too “all white” for me, as my tastes have changed a little over the past year, but I still appreciate the rooms on an individual level.
Love the candelabra in the bathroom!
This is my favorite shot – the fabric inspiration board looks like art and ads a little personality to the place.
I have to admit I am not into the whole cow hide trend. I think the living room would look cozier with a regular rug, and instead of the two dining room chairs on the opposite side of the coffee table, something a little plusher.
What do you think of this place? What would you change?

It’s Wednesday – half way through the work week and being able to spend a lazy – or productive – day out in the yard.
I would love to have a hammock like this.

I like the rustic style – but not too rustic. That’s why this bathroom really appealed to me. It’s rustic – but clean and elegant at the same time. What do you think?

I am not an early bird, and for me guilt free Saturday mornings sleeping in never, ever gets old. These bedrooms would only encourage me to spend more time in them!
Adore this white and airy bedroom

I can’t wait until I have a living room big enough that I can actually but a table behind my couch.

I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity by Lumnique to test out their “build your own candle” site and report my results to you guys. It was easy and fun, and I took screenshots of the process. You can click on each image for a large, easier to read view.
First, you choose your “intention” for your candle or gift candle. I chose “Courage” since I’ve been needing some with starting my own web design company and I’ve been without the security of a corporate paycheck. Other intentions include, “A Harmonious Home,” “Passion,” “Love,” “Healing,” “Good Luck,” etc.
Then, you pick out of several colors – I was torn between gray and dove, but Dove matches my decor a bit better.
Lastly, you chose the fragrance. They have many fragrances categorized by three scent families – “citrus/fruit,” “floral/aromatherapy,” and “Nature/SpiceCuisine.” Since I like florals and soft, clean scents, I chose “Almond Blossom.”
The candle comes with a small booklet explaining your selections in a little more detail, or you can write a personalized gift message.
I was excited when it arrived. It comes in a lovely box which I’ll be repurposing to organize some craft supplies.
It is pretty much as I expected. The color is accurate; the candle is actually larger than I thought, and has two wicks. The smell is perfect for me as it’s light and delicate. All in all, I think this is a nice “personalized” touch for the home. The scent I chose is best for a bedroom or bathroom, as it’s very calming. I’d be interested in trying out one of the spice/cuisine scents to test out in the kitchen.
If you’re interested in buying a candle or checking out the customization process, go to lumnique.com. The site is very user friendly. I’d be interested to hear what scent/color combinations you guys pick and how they turn out!
I really like the arrangement of art on this wall. The wall color is different too.

It must be amazing to be able to stay in a hotel like this. My budget these days restricts me to hostels, but a girl can dream!
