Northern Delights: Scandinavian Homes, Interiors and Design by Emma Fexeus
I can’t stop hugging this book! I want to live inside it, it’s just so beautiful and idyllic. The prefect book for some Scandinavian inspiration. Emma Fexeus has her very own interiors blog that I adore so it’s an even nicer treat to own a book by her.
Pretty Pastel Style – Decorating interiors with pastel shades by Selina Lake
Selina Lake has made pastels cool again. It’s nice to see pastels used in a contemporary sense rather than the most commonly girly way. Teaming up pastels with pops of strong colour and vintage finds can make a really funky room.
