oh what a lounge thing

hi all! i've been absent for a while, it's because i've been travelling in london for work and now in helsinki to meet my family. my goddaughter has a 2 years bday today and i've shopped a bit...

hope you are doing great! london was fantastic as always. since i'm in travel business now my company joined WTM, and for a wannabe-globetrotter like me it was a heaven. our stand was cool, i show you some pics later on.

but, this thing amazes me today... i don't know where to put it, and i will most likely never buy such a thing but it's still such a cool furniture. what do you think? it' chrismassy red anyway :)

scandinavian design fair: Formex

hello sweet girls and boys! this weekend has been such a happy one, since it was finally the big fair weekend! formex, the largest scandinavian design and craft fair and i was there! yeah! the theme this fall was vintage travel, and don't we just love both vintage and travel? here's my pics... enjoy!

some golden frames and bed covers for you maybe? or the scandinavian designed and south african produced cow leather bags? or maybe you like some arm candy and ecological soap bars?

the pink and blue cushion are from a new up'n'coming design company called la-la label (no website...). the black and white textiles with some lovely yellows and blues are from mairo. the arm candy from åska. bags from kamelo.

don't you just love the swedish brand boob? (and love my red nails too!) they make beautiful maternity fashion. and they are so pink too!

these two companies i loved a bit extra. frosta design creates hand knitted baskets, pillows, wall deco, you name it! they also have representatives in the usa and australia! fidelin is a newly started company that produces high quality french linen interior textiles, where the linen is produced by one of the oldest linen producing families in france. all made in sweden.

and some more i-just-cannot-stop-wanting... bliss (1) is a new started company with a beautiful range of life style produts for a mother, a father and a baby. the products come in sweet shades of white, purple and pink. love them! elsie d (2) has a beautiful colorful range of indian textiles, just as fabric copenhagen (4), go and check them out! shyness (3) is a new absolutely beautiful collection of high quality bed linen and cushion covers, along with their own line of bath textiles. it was such a pleasure talking to all these lovely creative ladies! go girls i say!!
