Line's Relaxed Copenhagen Home with Pretty Pastels
Hej vänner! Popping in with a little Danish inspiration for you to today. Think pared back, whitewashed, with pops of pastel. Yay! This beautiful apartment belongs to Line Schjelde, a Copenhagen based PR manager, who lived with her boyfriend and their little daughter. Excitingly, the family are expecting a little baby girl in a matter of weeks! Given the serenity of the space, it’s hard to imagine their home is in the heart of the thriving, urban district of Vesterbro (fabulous area to explore if you’re ever in town!). It’s beautifully calm yet has some wonderful focal points thanks to the gallery wall, beautiful furniture choices and the lovely details!  Enjoy the tour!

No one does gallery walls like the Danes!

But my eyes are on the two mini ball pendant lamps – how cool are they? From what I can gather, Line made these herself using two rice paper balls (costing €5 each!). The HAY dining table is also fab – and the mix and match chairs help to create a relaxed look and feel.

One of the things I have been taken for granted lately are windowsills. Scandinavian homes are generally blessed with wide ones that can be used for so many things (this has been pointed out in the comment section a few times!). Walk around a city street or a country village and windows will be lit by a lamp (this one is the Balustre in pale pink* by Kähler) in the window – make your return home in the dark that more welcoming!
Another observation, un-related, but still interesting: front doors open outwards rather than inwards. I think this might have something to do with the snow – although that doesn’t account for apartment doors. Hmmm. What are the windowsills like in your country, and do your front doors open inwards or outwards?

I love the sofa (from The Sofa Company – the colour is so warm and inviting – just imagine Line and her boyfriend snuggled up here with her two little girls!

I get asked so many questions about floating bookshelves. Montana is a great source!
What a difference a pretty cushion can make to a room! Line picked this one up from Thus The Fuss (who’s home I once featured here). Keep an eye out for her pop-up shops here

This lovely Ferm Living pond mirror* is really popular right now – I love the shape!

The famous IKEA Stockholm cabinet that’s now been discontinued and making waves on eBay! If you see one and you like it, nab it!

What was I saying about windowsills? I mean, seriously!  
All in all, such a lovely home, it’s really brightened up my Tuesday – I hope it has yours too!
Loving the pops of pastel!
I’ll be keeping an eye on Line’s inspiring feed for her latest updates – but more importantly for BABY NEWS! I’ll never forget the birth of my second daughter and her sister rushing through the doors of the hospital shouting “WHERE’S MY SISTER?” before showering Allie with a million kisses! Wishing you so much luck with the birth Line – what a magical time you have ahead! 
Looking for a little more Danish inspiration today?

Tonight, I’m excited to participate in a Live Shopping Event over at Boozt.com where I’ll be sharing some fun ideas for how you can update your spring table for spring. Come and join us at 7pm (GMT+1). Admittedly, I’m a tad nervous right now (anything ‘live’ is a little daunting, don’t you think?) so it would be wonderful to see a friendly face in the Q & A. Plus, you’ll be able to enjoy a discount on anything you buy. Winner!
