Deck the halls Scandinavian Style : a fast decor recipe

It is hard to miss it : Scandinavian inspired decor are hot topics! 
I love how soothing, stylish and yet so homey those home decors are !

Here is a recipe for instant decorating !

Basically you need ::

★ a mostly white room
★ soft layered rugs or sheepskins
★ white or light colored wooden furniture (Ikea based mixed with Grand-parents buffet will do great)
★ organic shapes and natural elements (think branches, pinecones, etc)
★ candles (LOTS of it !)
★ natural baskets
★ cozy handmade pillows
★ soft wollen / linen blankets
★ silvers stars
★ home baked cookies to fill your house with delicious smell  ;)

You can go monochromic B&W  or add touches of color (red is safe bet, but I guess you can choose Neon pink or Lemon Yellow if you are in the mood for it !)

In my next post, I will show what we did around our house !

Enjoy !

<Nordic style is very attractive and fashionable today because it’s rustic, minimalist and cozy at the same time. Scandinavian style is amazing for Christmas décor as Scandinavian people know well what a real winter is. Natural wood, black and white, fir tree wreaths and rustic lanterns compose a classical Nordic décor. Wanna some color? Add red berries, fabric tree ornaments, stockings and carpets. Nature touches look amazing: natural wood accessories, tree branches, fir tree decorations, pine cone accessories and the place will get a cozy and inviting touch. Minimalism is the motto of Scandinavian Christmas design, get inspired! (via)
