Greetings from Scandinavia

We’re back from our amazing Christmas trip to Scandinavia. Here are just a few highlights from our trip.


One of my favorite souvenirs was this delicate, beaded band that I purchased while in Stockholm at Lo. The background is the torn cover from the airplane magazine, Hemisphere.


This is Lo resizing my ring. She was so sweet and charming. She gave us a glass of glögg while we waited and chatted.




Last May, I saw this cool Japanese book about Scandinavian patterns and textiles on the blog, Book By Its Cover. After many phone calls (Kinokuniya and Amazon.com) and Google searching, I pouted and reluctantly gave up since the book was out of publication. So I freaked out and bought this tea towel and jar at Design Torget in Malmö.
