Scandinavian Holiday Decor Inspiration
(Love the irregular moss hearts. This one is for you Michele!).
When I went to Sweden I bought a ton of design magazines filled with inspiration for the winter Holidays. Do I even have to tell you that I ear marked just about every page? Those Scandinavians — they do know a thing or two about decorating so it looks & feels fresh, inviting, chic effortless, simple and oh so beautiful. Gotta tell you. This gal is very proud of her Swedish genes.
Enjoy the eye candy.
A great spot for gifts. And 2 different mirrors look so pretty together.
On my next outing with Miles I am so picking up sticks so I can make my own mother nature star.
Hyacinths and red tulips are my two favorite flowers for Christmas.
Oh, and I need to make a pinecone & nut heart as well! So simple pretty.
For those of you who are interested in what’s happening at the store. Here goes.
Make sure to order on or before Tuesday 19th, if you want to receive the shipment before Dec. 25th.
And please enjoy a little store treat.
Just use SPLENDIDTIMES at checkout. Enter our store here.
New things are coming in almost daily.
The NEW Danish Bride & Groom rabbits are simply adorable! Well made and unique.
We love the Royal King and Royal Queen in their fabric towers! (Easy to carry around too!).
The lovely Odd Molly Sweaters/cardigans are hopping away fast.
And the Swedish moccasins are getting raves everywhere!
The popular Swedish egg cups are FINALLY back in stock. (And they come in a nice, black gift box)
My own kids’ favorite Holiday book has also been added to the store – ”Findus At Christmas” by Sven Nordqvist. Adults and kids laugh out loud! (I will be saving my Nordqvist books for my own grand kids – a long ways down the road…).
We are almost completely sold out of the real reindeer antlers wine stoppers and bottle openers. Very Scandinavian!
Enter our store here.
Alright then. Off to handle business. You will see me in extra good form next week. I am ready for some good Holiday celebration myself.
Happy weekend to you all!

Have to mention that I went for a very “Scandinavian” influenced tree this year and love the simplicity of it. We didn’t put many decorations on it nor a star or an angel.

the fabric towers and all that splendid goodness!
of course the moss heart struck my fancy since i treasure the one from you! it is proudly displayed, and at the present time has a little red washi tape cross in the center. you’d approve i think, and i’m sure it’ll be making an appearance soon.
love to you.

I love the connection to the outdoors in these beautiful holiday settings! And those reindeer antlers? Yes, please. Hope you are well – sorry I haven’t been in touch since we returned last week – it was quite the trip. I can explain better when I see…which I hope will be soon??? I think a post-Christmas M/M/B outing is in order. Agreed?
