Do you have a space in your home which you’ve delayed decorating for years? In our house, I had completely neglected our landing, mainly because I didn’t really know what to do with it! It’s a tricky space, relatively narrow with five doors coming off it. 

But now, I’ve finally fixed it! I thought I’d share the new look with you, in case you’re also struggling with a hall or landing and looking for inspiration! Maybe this will spark some ideas! 

Side cabinet

The main problem was finding a side cabinet that was slim enough to fit the space. The answer came in the form of a simple white BESTÅ cabinet in size 60 cm x 20 cm x 64 cm from IKEA and then I dressed it up using items from Superfront* (a Swedish cabinet that make doors, fronts, tops, legs etc for IKEA units – the wonderful team said they can offer My Scandinavian Home readers 20% off side boards with code scandi20 until 27th July, 2024). Above is a sketch by Helen Sturesson who helped brainstorm the project with me! 

Sidenote: My daughter says this isn’t a good picture as I have my ‘grippers’ out. Have you heard this term? Apparently a TikTok trend amongst the young of Europe dictates that you shouldn’t have your feet out in public!! Did make me laugh! 

The landing finally feels complete – after 15 years (embarrassed to admit that!). I hope you like it as much as we do! 

Do let me know if you have any questions or I’ve missed anything and I’d be happy to help. 

Speaking of comments – thank you for all your lovely congratulations on our anniversary and sharing your thoughts on good presents for ‘crystal’ on Wednesday. We so appreciated it! 

Have a fantastic weekend, see you Monday!
