Dreaming of White Christmas

Dreaming of White Christmas
white christmas decorating

I’m starting my Christmas decorating this week. I know many already have their homes decorated for Christmas, but we normally don’t start early. Part of is probably my Scandinavian upbringing – when I was a child we decorated Christmas tree on Christmas Eve! My daughter’s birthday is on the 16th of December and it has become our tradition to decorate the tree on that day. Did you already put your Christmas tree up this weekend?


This year I have decided to decorate with blue, white and silver, and can’t wait to get a very fresh and clean look for our home. I want some sparkle yet incorporate some birch tree, pine cones and other natural elements in it, I also want to find those white doves in the tree.. So many ides and I feel like I’m already late starting now! I want to incorporate blue in the decorating as well, but got very inspired by these photos of this pretty much entire white home, photos taken by Norwegian photographer Sandra Aslaksen.

The Coolest Built-In Bunk Beds (and DIY Brass Hardware)

The Coolest Built-In Bunk Beds (and DIY Brass Hardware) Christina is one of my favorite people. She is as kind, talented and gorgeous as the day is long. The last time I was in Arizona, I swung by her new house for a little tour. I’m going to beg her to let me share everything here on LGN when she’s finished (I’ll probably have to arm wrestle the editors at Elle Decor for it – it’s SO good!). In case you haven’t seen these yet, and since we were talking about cool bunk beds the other day, I thought I’d share the built-in bunks Christina did in her triplet sons’ room. So, so cool right? That railing is unreal. One of my favorite parts of the bed is the DIY hardware Christina made by spray painting pipes! I’ve made curtain rods out of pipes before, but never oversize pulls. The brass spray paint takes them to a whole new level. I love how chunky these are. Anything smaller would have been lost on the beds. See what I mean by talented?! PS Christina shared a little tour of her twin da
