A charming boho dairy in the Swedish countryside

Do you ever feel like leading a simpler life in the country? I definitely do, especially when I look at homes like this. Johan and Rinas live in an old dairy outside Falkenberg on Sweden's west coast where they collect freshly laid eggs, forage for chanterelle and make homemade juice. 'Lis Mejeri' has been decorated using 'something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue' - including many things found around the house when they moved in. Johanna Bradford and Kristin Lagerqvist - were lucky enough to visit in person and took these lovely pictures. Let's take a peek...

Johanna Bradford / Kristin Lagerqvist  Lovely Life

This is definitely one to share with my family and say *guys, fancy living like this for a while?*....

Could you imagine living somewhere like this?

See more pics of the dairy here (and on their blog here). 

It reminds me a little of the beautiful Strömma Farmlodge. More boho homes not far from Lis Mejeri here.

Have a lovely day!

PS Malmö / Copenhagen friends Emily Katz popped me a note to say she is travelling from Portland, Oregon to Copenhagen to hold a modern macrame workshop this Saturday 5th September.  Thought you wouldn't want to miss it....

A Swedish space in neutrals - with a few cool details

It's been a very Scandinavian week indeed here on MSH. Since last Wednesday I've featured home tours from Norway, Finland and Denmark (talk about spreading a little love!). So, today I thought I'd complete the picture with a home in Sweden. This delightful Swedish space in Gothenburg has been decorated with serene neutral tones and lots of lovely plants and accessories. What a perfect space to bring a little calm to the mid week, don't you think?!

There are a few lovely details in this space: the row of of hooks in the sitting room (these are fairly similar). The 90 brass shelf lamp as a bedside table. And the classic coat stand in the corner of the bedroom.

In contrast to the neat book shelves in the Danish apartment yesterday, the books in this apartment have been arranged in relaxed piles throughout the space. Which do you prefer? Perhaps a mix of both?

Is there anything that stands out to you?

More lovely spaces in calm neutrals include this Swedish apartment, an elegant space with a fab daybed and a Malmö home.

Have a lovely day!
