Bright Apartment in Sweden

Full of beans today so we'll have a second post. I'd love you to see this bright and youthful apartment in Linnestaden, Sweden. No Christmas decorations here, I'm afraid.

Christmas in Norway

This house is located on the island of Askoy, near Bergen in Norway. It was originally used only in summer but now the owners have moved in permanently. Decorated for Christmas with a charming rustic simplicity.

Holiday was year-round residential

Gold and Silver for Christmas

Have you started with your Christmas decorating? I haven't yet. Not because I don't want to but because I won't be home until the 22nd. Anyway, the tradition in Argentina is to put up the Christmas tree and decorations on the 8th. What is it like in your country? Do you have a fixed date or do you just start decorating sometime near Christmas or whenever you are ready? Another tradition in Argentina is that on Christmas eve, at exactly 12 o'clock, the whole country goes nuts with fireworks! And it goes on for at least half an hour. A fantastic sight -and noise- which I love. I know this is not done in Brazil, for example. They use fireworks whenever a football team scores a goal or wins, and for New Year too, but not for Christmas.

And, talking about Christmas, today I'd like to show you a selection of photographs from campagne-decoration to get you inspired.

Good morning, nice to see you again. Ready for another tour? Spanish interior designer Adriana Barnils took care of these interiors. A soft palette and pleasant symmetry for this spacious home.
Let's take a look.
