Shades of grey
A very grey day - and a wee bit of sunshine. It's winter in Sweden.
These subtle shades of grey, browns and black fits my mood only too well...
Love the simple head board above.
And the Finnish sauna below. That heat!
Time to think of what to wear during the upcoming holidays.
Bling or embroidery? What's your preference?

Winter and a white star
What a lovely surprise! Today I found a gift from Marion/Basiclabel in my analogue mailbox. A white star! Handmade like most everything else this talented lady does. How can I not blog about such a lovely Christmas gift? I'm a great fan of Marion's great blog basiclabelsweden, and have written about it before - here. Now one of her beauties hang, together with other fav. Christmas ornaments, from a branch in my kitchen window. Thanks Marion! Get your own here.
Below is an image from Marion's blog, which show the proper color and design of her stars:
We've got the first snow this year, and I'm working from home today. Watching the birds outside my window, feet in sheepskin slippers, fire in the kitchen stove. Perfect!

Advent 1 - A very white day
Today is Advent Sunday. The day when we light the first candle (of four)
to mark the start of the Advent Season. The oil painting above is by one of my fav. contemporary artists - Gerhard Richter. We also had the first snow. It's been a very white day, and the colors fit Arvo Pert's music below...
