Today’s post is about kitchens! I am showing you my favorite style of kitchens: modern country kitchens.

Even a very basic kitchen like the one in the image above can be cosy.

I love this wooden kitchen. We originally wanted to have a wooden kitchen in our home but as we already had a wooden floor we thought that it would be too much.

Today is a grey day here in The Netherlands. This inspired me to show you various shades of grey (image from AnoukB & & Marjon Hoogervorst / Taverne Agency).

This owl costume is too cute! Apparently it is easy to make in only a couple of hours (according to Alphamom who made this costume), you can find full instructions here.

a cosy norwegian winter home

We are heading towards spring (hurray!) but before I start blogging about beautiful summer houses and sunny places I want to do one more winter inspired post.

cosy4.jpg

This cosy winter cabin belongs to stylist Hanne Borge-Yngland and her husband Per. It is located in Kvitfjell, Norway.

The couple built the house themselves almost five years ago. They kept the house as open as possible, placing the dining room and living room upstairs “where the view is best” and where the heat rises naturally.

Raw materials such as concrete, reclaimed wood and accessories like sheep skin and horns were used to create a rustic and cosy atmosphere.

All these interior images were found on Skona Hem.

Some ideas to create a similar cosy atmosphere: 1. coat hooks from House Doctor, 2. stem vase from ferm LIVING, 3. mirror made from recycled wood from House Doctor, 4. table from House Doctor, 5. sheepskin rug from IKEA.
