light



I'm getting sick of the darkness now, I know I shouldn't complain, we've had such a mild winter so far. I don't know why this year the darkness seems more noticeable, maybe it's all the rain too - the light has to fight through those rain clouds perhaps. Anyway it's quite nice to snuggle indoors, in the warm with the lights on and some candle light of an evening. These lights really bring a smile to my face, I just love them! We bought them in a charity shop in Sweden last summer, I think they are by the Finnish designer Nanny Still for Raak.

  1. Hello!

    I totally agree with the whole gloominess thing - it's so oppressive! It isn't the post-Christmas comedown or tightened purse strings or even the cold that bother me in January, it's the short days and grey skies.

    I like your lights. In fact I love Scandi design, and if anyone's going to be good at light design it's going to be them isn't it? Much as I dream of living over there, I can't imagine how I'd deal with all those dark days for half the year... Maybe a summer holiday home would be the answer (in my dreams!)

    1. Oh I know just what you mean Sarah, I don't think I'd cope well with those long Scandinavian nights either!
