White Christmas table setting part I - valkoinen joulukattaus part I

White Christmas table setting - valkoinen joulukattausWelcome to have some Gluhwein and Christmas porridge at our white Christmas table! Thought to start with this white table setting - it looked so so pretty on the table, just a minor problem - with the fireplace behind my back I couldn't get far enough from the table to take larger photos (and I've promised to use only my feet as a zoom for now). But hopefully you get the picture!White Christmas table setting - valkoinen joulukattausThe Himla linen napkins, Oninterior star napkin rings, Petra...

Himla linen napkins - Himla pellavaservettiThis weekend I am fully focusing on planning Weranna's Christmas table settings - here some inspiration with Himla linen napkins, a xmas tree branch and a cinnamon stick. Perhaps 3-4 different kinds. I love to plan table settings, just feels a little silly sometimes as I am not much of a cook. But at least it looks pretty, if not much else ;).Himla linen napkin - Himla pellavaservettiHimla linen napkin - Himla pellavaservettiResults in the blog during the next few days - at least a black and white Christmas...

Start of the Gluhwein Season - Glögikauden avaus

Gluhwein season - Glögikauden avausHave you started your Gluhwein season yet? I have. Last week, actually. A 10-month-break, probably to the date, and it tastes SOOO good again. I was going through the local store to find the specific one and started panicking - where is it?? The most traditional one. I don't know if it is any good, but when you've had it around Christmas time for 15 years the taste kind of grows into you. Well, they had changed the label. I can't really recall what the old one looked like, but I would recognize it as 'IT', if...

Christmas balcony make-over in 15 minutes - Jouluparveke 15 minuutissa

Christmas balcony make-over - BEFORELook familiar? To me at least it does. Our terrace looks so sad currently, that I don't even want to look outside. In the spring time you decorate with all possible enthusiasm with flowers and herbs and textiles, and now they are all dead or inside safe and sound from the rain and humidity.Christmas balcony make-over - Start with the floorIn this little project we dressed up a small balcony for the coming season and took some photos for our XMAS PRESENT TIPS CATALOGUE. Put even some new tiles on the floor (learned...
