A reading room like this? Yes please..........love her pink chair and the Russian pillow!! And what a handsome backdrop that bookcase makes!
Apart from her photography and her home which is absolutely charming, the thing that I like about Inki's blog is that it allows me a glimpse into her amazingly imaginative personality....intrigued? read on....
Her "toy story" corner. she believes that the deer comes to life and prances around the living room the moment she exits the room... there he is---frozen in action!
This wooden sign was found on a beach in Finland. Inki says that her heart immediately went out to the beautiful piece of rotting wood, with its paint peeling off. Even though the lettering on the sign was illegible, she deciphered it (in her heart) to read "This way to the beach". She adopted it and placed it on a pedestal, to remind her of her holiday in Finland.
Vignette of three little elephants who marched their way into her house. her words. not mine! :)
Her sunny shelf.
Deer vignette.
Red bell. She says it is the "most useless object" in her kitchen. But what a delightful jolt of color!!
Antique horse vignette.
Oriental corner.
Her dining room and the kitchen beyond. (click on the pictures for a larger image)
Close up of those teacups!
Her bedroom wall (this one's for you Patty!)
Bedroom zen corner.
Her antique teacups.

@Sayantnai: :) I knew you'd like this!
@Pree: yes, the "bell"..sometimes things are useful just by being pretty don't you think? :)
@Alison...I think she has cut out wallpaper shapes and stuck them on (tho' it wasn't immediately apparent from the translated text). Lovely isn't it?
@patty: the wall's for you, hon!
@Neha: I loved the teacups lined up above the divider...charming home isn't it! So glad I found her! :)
beautiful home....subtle details make a place a home...perfect!!
ReplyDeleteHahahaah, I also arrage my books by colours !
ReplyDeleteLOVE HER HOME! Wow, Gagan, you really pick cool homes :). I love the overall understated white with burst of colours of the ost unexpected objects. Useless items, don't we have just too many of them ?:) but if they make us happy, then they can't be useless ! :)
@Sudha: Inki mentioned that her apartment is really tiny...judging by the pictures, it's anything but...it is to her credit that she has taken a small space and made it so beautiful and warm. sometimes we get hung up on space, but really, it is the quality that matters!!! :)
ReplyDelete@Sans! great to have you back...hope you're feeling recharged after your vacation!
