After a summer of visitors, big kids coming and going, boyfriends, girlfriends and the general chaos of a busy household, to say our home is starting to look a little shabby around the edges is an understatement. Aesthetically I have always been inspired by the simple stripped back style of Scandinavian decoration. I'm somehow always intrinsically drawn to those raw essentials of bleached floorboards, natural linens, rustic timber, and eclectic finds from around the globe, and the list goes on. So, I hope you don't mind whilst I indulge in a little musing of how to recreate this look in our very 'un shabby chic' home right now!
