What does creativity mean to you? For us it is encapsulated in this selection of Finnish homes that are both inspiring and beautiful. Decorating a home doesn´t have to be too serious; it´s at its best when you realize you can do anything that makes you happy – be creative. 

Happy Homes is a book series from Finland, which now continues with Creative homes. Don´t forget to check out Happy Homes Hideaways and Happy Homes Christmas as well!

  • New book coming soon! Festive – Festive mood, easy DIY and delicious recipes! 🥂 “Searching for ideas, information or inspiration for a children’s birthday bash, graduation buffet or classic dinner party? Festive takes its readers on a stylish journey through the seasons. The two talented creators behind the book spill the beans on how to pull off a party with finesse – without forgetting the least detail when it comes to setting the mood and a delicious menu! Having both experienced tragic loss, the book project of friends @marjawickman and @elinacerell was a way to kindle joy in the midst of sorrow. Marja, who works as an art director and runs her renowned interior blog, and Elina, who works in project management in advertising, serve up a visual feast as they share their best tips for making any occasion a worthy cause of celebration.” ✨ Language: Finnish & English ~ 29€, coming out in May 2019 ✨ Concept and texts: Marja Wickman & Elina Cerell Photography: Marja Wickman Layout design: @violaminerva

Sekä intohimoinen rakkaus ruokaan – se on ruuanlaitossa kaikkein tärkeintä. Kaikki nämä yhdistää Naisten vuoro -kirjassa mukana olevaa 13 eri-ikäistä, erilaisia elämän- ja työkokemuksia kokeneita naisia. He kertovat kirjassa ruokafilosofiansa kulmakivet ja antavat jokaiselle ruuanlaittoa harrastavalle parhaimmat ideansa.” ✨ ~ 29€, ilmestyy huhtikuussa 2019
