There’s nothing spectacular about this kitchen. In fact, the stove is rather unsightly and the drawers beg for a paint job. Yet, somehow it’s all so  unexpectedly beautiful. I just love when a space surprises me like that!

Pink and gold. Has their ever been a color combination more perfectly feminine than that? Add a small dose of masculine navy to balance it all out and a few sunbeams, and we’ve got the most perfect little moment I ever did see!

That’s such a perfect pink! I agree that it really goes well with gold and copper, just perfect.

I’ve also started to notice that a lot of american bloggers use pictures from Swedish interior magazines, which I think is great (since I’m Swedish!), but it could also be that I’m a bit home blind, and only react to those sources! I can’t help to wonder, when will RUE do a Scandinavian issue? ;)

I really like your new blog design, by the way!
