Scandinavian web shops

 
: : these are currently my two favorite Swedish/Scandinavian web shops, offering a wide array of products from the best of Scandinavian design .

.Swedishness. I came across just recently, I love the layout of their shop that allows you to browse products without having to navigate through categories necessarily. It's a much more visual way of navigating. And I appreciate their selection of very unique and recent Scandinavian design products. They carry several items that I have been looking for for a long time.

.Huset. has a great collection of everything from housewares to clothing. I particularly like their coffee& tea category since I've started collecting coffee and tea cups in Swedish vintage patterns.

Happy Friday!

wishlist item no.4


: : I found this beautiful tray by designer Maria Holmer Dahlgren on .from Sthlm. I'm so disapointed that it's already sold out. I need to be checking their site more frequently. Hopefully I can find it somewhere in Sweden though. I think it would be the perfect breakfast tray for bringing my breakfast with me out on the balcony.

Wishlist item no. 3 IKEA PS SVARVA lamp

: : love the quirkiness and the character of .this lamp.

IKEA fest (party)

: : my lovely friend .erica. is celebrating her birthday this weekend (Grattis på födelsedagen! Happy birthday!) and got in the mood to throw a party when she found this IKEA website focused on different party decoration themes. I love how they created drastically different themes and put their own products in context. And I am completely in love with the white .PS Svarva floor lamp. in the second photo. It's going to have to go on my wishlist. Happy Friday!

Gotland house

: : Beautiful traditional Swedish country home on the island of Gotland off the Swedish east coast. Found via .husligheter. Such soft, welcoming floors and I really appreciate the simplicity of the interiors. Wonderful!

wish list item no. 2

: : I drink A LOT of tea. in fact, I think I'm a tea addict. especially on rainy days like today. I think I've had 4 cups of green tea already. The .one tea kettle. by .vessel ideation. is not only beautiful in terms of form and graphics it is also extremely functional since it can go directly from being heated on the stove to the serving tray. this would significantly improve my tea drinking process which right now involves 3-4 steps.I'm adding this to my wish list.
