Well, well, well – if it’s not what Swedes call ‘Lillördag’ (little Saturday). Which means friends, we’ve earned the right to take a mid-week breather, poor ourselves a coffee, out up our feet and some Scandinavian interior inspiration! 

Emma lives in a house in a little village called Hjo on the West coast of Vättern, Sweden’s second largest lake (seventh largest in Europe). Every room is a sea of warm earthy neutral shades pepped with in-season flowers from Emma’s own garden and candles to bring in warmth. I also love to see a glass of wine or cup of tea, and a slice of homemade pizza or slither of a freshly baked cake are never far away!

Here are some snapshots of some of Emma’s favourite cosy corners. 

Lovely! It’s really cold here now so I especially love the autumn touches like the blankets, candles and roaring fire. 

The dahlias are in full bloom here too, and Emma’s are so pretty! 

Is there anything that stood out to you in particular?

I also have an important news flash for you – this Friday 4th October it is cinnamon bun day in Sweden – so make sure you get involved. There are plenty of good recipes to be found online (and there’s one in my Lagom book too if you have a copy of that lying around). 

Other cosy homes with an autumn vibe to love today: 

And finally, a little note to say that I am heading to Mallorca tomorrow to visit my older sister. It’s only for a few days but I really can’t wait! This means that I will be taking a couple of days off and will be back here again next Wednesday. I hope you enjoy the archives in the meantime. 

Wishing you a wonderful rest of the week! 

Niki
