And That's Where I've Been...

Why are hospital rooms so uninspiring?

It's been a crazy few weeks. I have been in and out of the hospital and had lots of tests. Luckily we have ruled out all the major ailments - and for that I feel very blessed.

I have spent a lot of time at home nesting... I promise to be back soon when I am back on my feet with photos of some of my new projects. xx-Gina

Stora marockanska mässingsfat

Den här helgen drog mannen med mig på matmässa i Malmö - Älska Mat. Medan han rusade rakt på ostronen fastnade jag så klart bland pralinerna. Criollos choklad hade lagt upp sina läckerheter på vackra marockanska mässingsfat. Fat som är perfekta att servera på men också vackra som prydnad. Mässing är ett klart underskattat material men som man börjar se mer och mer av just nu. Riktigt snyggt till det svarta, bruna och murriga som är så inne i höst. Och chokladen... ja, den smakade så klart gudomligt. Bilderna är mina egna.

This is from a food exhibition that we went to last weekend. I just love, yes the chocolate of course, but also the Moroccan brass trays that it was served on. Looks great to the new dark autumn trend of brown and black. Images are my own.

{ Decorating walls }

I find it kind of hard to decorate walls sometimes because I like to change the look very often, and I don't want to make a lot of holes in the wall. Therefore I've fallen for these shelves where you can put different decorations, and when you get tired of the look you easily can replace the items with something else.

This is how the shelves in our living room looks like right now

Magazines can be very decorative as well. I've stacked some of our magazines under the shelves beside a basket with a pillow. Now the wall went from empty to way more decorative. 

We have these kind of shelves both over our bed and in my home office. You can see how I decorated them here and here.

How do you decorate your walls? Do you often use shelves as well?
