Last week I featured this beautiful black kitchen. I found some images of the rest of this home and they are worth showing you so here they are! The home, which belongs to photographer and interior designer Benedikte Ugland, has a raw and industrial touch to it.

Today I’m loving … these silver baskets. These baskets make a great summer accessory but they also look great in your home. You can actually spray paint the baskets yourself. Instructions can be found here on Martha Stewart’s website.

In this first collection colorful items are combined with neutral tones. Materials used are soft knits, faux fur and organic cotton.
