Patron Lunares

C/Fabrica 30 Santa Catalina Palma de Mallorca

I have to share this one with you, a favorit restaurant.

Seriously this place has it all. There is nothing I don't like here, well except that it is not closer to home...  Good Food , Excellent Interior,  Nice staff, Mallorca Wine and 

Soft music from the Dj during lunch hour! 

If you are on Mallorca book a table! 

My white home

Sometimes I try to add some bright colours to our home, I always take it away very quick.

I simply love white, grey and black, beige and brown , natural materials and textured fabrics. 

My kids give me all the  colour I need in my life! 

I might sneak in a little blue this spring though and we will see how long that lasts...

Tänk att vi fick man vara med i Sköna Hem

Last week our home was presented in Sweden's most sold interior decoration magazine , i must admit that I am very proud. It is always nice to get some credits after all the work done, even if you decorate your home for yourself and your family, it is a pleasure to be able to inspire others. A lot of sweat and tears were spilled during our renovation, sleepless nights and heavy work and we are far from finished. But one step at a time , it is also a fact that a house is never finished. 

But we got through the roughest period 

( sleeping in the basement without shower or electricity for 6 weeks) and here is the result. 4 year after we bought this house we are happy that we where crazy enough to throw ourselves in to an enormous renovation project (without budget) and just thinking that it will work out. 

Now we look forward to do our garden and a new atelier.  

Have a look at the latest issue of Sköna Hem for more pictures of our house. 

And thank you for following our story!

Mallorca so much more than beach

Early spring on Mallorca. Strolling the calm Palma sipping a coffee on a street cafe. Finding wonderful hidden gems in Town. Exploring the food market. Cooking from local products and eating a picnic on the rocks, drawing while the kids are fishing. Taking a day trip on the wooden train from Palma to Soller admiring the inland landscape of the Island. Mallorca is so much more than beach.
A few days away from home with the kids and energy level is refilled.

Flower workshop at home

 As you know we are using our house for a lot of different activities, 

yesterday started with a Flower Workshop for 5 lovely ladies. 

There is something special with flowers, sometimes i miss having a flower shop you quickly forget how tough it is to wake up at 4 in the morning and how tiring it is to work weekends and holidays when you see all the flowers. 

Having a workshop every now and then keeps flowers in my life. And I really like it.

 We started with cutting the flowers, it is more difficult than you think if you never done it before and more important that you think to make your flower keep as long as possible. We also talked about water temperature and binding. The ladies quickly got a hold of it and created nice arrangements. 

The weather was not with us but we got a little bit of spring feeling touching and smelling the first tulips of the year. 

                             

Cutting , an art in itself.

Thank you for coming!

 Now we are redoing the house for a film shoot starting tomorrow.

I love seeing our house transforming and being used for different artistic activities. 

Enjoy your day !
