Renovated vicarage in Southern Sweden

My crusade to sell homes in the South of Sweden and get you all to live here continues. Haha! But seriously, when I spotted this home over at La Maison D'Anna G which is currently for sale just outside Malmö, I simply coudn't resist sharing it with you! Decorated in white and muted, earthy tones which provide a stark contrast against the original dark wood beams, this converted vicarage is so beautiful! I can already see myself  hanging out on one of the chaise longues by the fire, now to find the 9 million crowns....

Worth sharing or not?! Ready to up sticks?!

White and wood Malmö apartment

It wouldn't be a usual week on My Scandinavian Home without showing a local Malmö apartment for sale! This lovely white and wood home is bang in the centre of town in the old quarter of Gamla Väster. I spy an Andy Warhol print, Arne Jacobsen series 7 chairs, and the Verner Panton Flowerpot pendant light. But what I spy most of all is the beautiful painting in the kitchen. It's amazing how one painting can make such a statement, I wonder who it's by?

Such a lovely apartment. I told you there's something in the Southern Swedish air that makes everyone so stylish and creative :) is there anything you love in particular about this pad?
Hej då for now....

Ylva Skarp's Christmassy home

I seem to be in country mode at the moment as I simply can't stop showing beautiful homes from the Swedish countryside! This converted school house over looking a lake near Leksand in Dalarna was also photographed by Magdalena Björnsdotter for Lantliv. It's the home of Swedish designer and calligrapher Ylva Skarp and her family. Ylva's personal stamp can be seen throughout the house, which is all decked out for a truly cosy Christmas!

Such a beautiful home! What do you think?

I know it's only November and the last time I mentioned Christmas everyone panicked (haha!), but this home gets me feeling so Christmassy! I can't wait until the first weekend in December when we'll drive out to a farm in the Skåne countryside and chop down our Christmas tree (a family tradition always accompanied with a steaming mug of glögg (mulled wine). Do you have a Christmas tree tradition in your family?

PS Happy Bonfire Night to all my friends in the UK :)

Dear man, can we move please?

You may recognise this home. It's been in countless interior design magazines and extremely popular in the blog world. In fact, I've even shown it on this blog. But there's a difference. This time it's for sale (how they can bear to part with it I have no idea). And as a result this Southern Sweden home has been shot from numerous new angles (as you can see I had a very difficult time selecting a few ....!). The owners have completely rocked the white with vintage look, are masters at colour and material mixing and to top it all have added a heart stopping morrocan twist.

Help! I've just spent the best part of an afternoon wondering if I could up root to this home in Arild. It's a beautiful coastal village further up the coast here in Skåne and actually just down the road from my father-in-law.....I even sent the link to my man's work e-mail with the subject 'we're moving...'! haha! what do you reckon, could you up sticks here?!

Stockholm; white, grey and dusty pink

For sale right now in the beautiful, smart district of Östermalm in Stockholm is this light, bright and airy apartment decorated in white and grey with a dusty pink accent. I love how the wishbone chairs make a focal point.

So envious of the all white floors. What would be your absolute dream floor?

I think the print in the kitchen is  by one of my favourite Swedish typographers, Therese Sennerholt however, I can't find it on her website - am I wrong (could I be...no way!? haha!). I am always on the look out for great black and white prints, a current favourite is this one. 

On the subject of black and white....don't forget to enter my give-away if you haven't already (sorry to bang on about this, I just don't want anyone to miss out!).
