wish list for the baby corner

As I'm expecting my first baby - a boy - in late November, I'm already thinking about the look of the baby corner in our bedroom. I prefere neutral colours like grey and beige, fitting to the basic colours in our bedroom.

1. grey cushion | Hay
2. mobile | The Alison Show

3. elephant cushion | Mini Empire

4. baby bed | Ikea

5. wire basket | Ferm Living

6. blanket | H&M

the finest porcelain in the most delicious colours - feinedinge*

Maybe you have noticed those beautiful porcelain vases in some of my postings about my apartment, for example here or here. Well, these beauties are made by the talented Sandra Haischberger and her team. 

In 2005 Sandra started the label feinedinge* and since then many beautiful objects were created, amongst others the most popular collection Alice. Whether vase, teapot or butter dish, each object is handmade and acts incredibly elegant. And the colours that Sandra chooses are just delicious!

In addition to the Alice collection you can also find many other wonderful tableware, home accessories and jewelry in her brand new showroom in Vienna's 4th district. The showroom is a treat for the eyes - white, black and grey walls, a white wooden floor, a stucco ceiling, a cosy corner with a vintage touch, stunning chandeliers, a group of pendant lights above a perfectly laid table and so many beautiful details more... Moreover, you can take a sneak peek at the atelier and the soon to be released collection "animals of the forest". A visit and a purchase are definitely worth it!

tiny clematis flowers

Clematis are my absolute favorite plants. Not those mega-sized varieties... The true beauties are the small-flowered and bell-shaped, super pretty ones - like this one called 'Jasper'. A clematis branch and a simple vase - the perfect couple!

apartment of a garden and interior journalist bubbling over with creativity

The next premiere on my blog - my first home story photographed by myself! And I'm very proud that it is about a really outstanding home, namely the apartment of my dear friend Ruth Wegerer.

Ruth is a multitalented woman - garden and interior journalist (currently she writes for Servus Magazin), founder of garden club Acanthus and craftswoman. She makes stunning objects from wire, magical fairies and enchanting jewelry. Moreover, she has a green thumb like no other!

In her apartment with fantastic wooden floors in a building from 1906 in the 15th district of Vienna, Ruth combines all these characteristics and talents. So her home gets a distinctive style! Every single room is full of unique things, personal items and ideas, it's a green jungle where curiosities meet antiques. This apartment bubbles over with creativity!

shopping like a queen - Lederleitner Home

Today I want to show you the first time a shop! I'm planning to do more of such portraits of my favourite shops, but more in the future...

Lederleitner is a well known company in Austria. It is known for exquisite garden design, garden accessoires and floristry. Recently they opened a new store in the lovely castle Walpersdorf near St. Pölten. It's called Lederleitner Home and as you can guess it's all about interior!

Stunning furniture and accessoires from selected brands like House Doctor, Vitra, Sebra, Royal Copenhagen, Nicolas Vahé and many more! Antiquities meet modern Scandinavian design and furniture from all over the world and the unique atmosphere in the rooms of the castle makes the rest. It is a veritable wonderland on incredible 5000 square meters and I am sure that it is going to be a new eldorado for interior design junkies like me!
