Spend the afternoon enjoy Lake Mälaren—located in the countryside, just west of Stockholm, and is the perfect spot to visit, itinerary left behind, for an afternoon [or perhaps, day or two] of exploration and discovery, and if you wish, a refreshing swim!
WHILE THE LOVE AFFAIR with pink has never ended, the love affair with the colour red has never even begun, not even for roses, and with the only exception being for red, red lips, and yet, in some cases, such as with tufted velvet sofas, [and especially when paired with warm pink walls], or atop a Saint Amour pastry or in the intertwining patterns of toile, there is something about red . . .

Nearly nine months ago, in early September of last year, received an email from the lovely Shannon, Contributing Editor at Design*Sponge, asking if I might be interested in being featured in their Sneak Peeks column. As Design*Sponge is the very first blog in the universe had ever read, was, of course, thrilled.
