You may recall that we have longer term larger scale renovation plans but, whilst we work out how much loose change we need to find down the back of the sofa to afford them, for now I am making some smaller changes to try to make the space feel a little bit more Malmo. Not unlike me, the new house has a generous downstairs. I have included a second floor plan below that shows what that reconfiguration would look like.
However, as we currently find ourselves in uncertain and unprecedented times I am not really daring to dream too much about those plans at the moment. Round one of the mini revamp focused on the kitchen at the end of the dining space. This Scandi came over all Handy Andy and removed the upper wall cupboard doors, painted the lower cupboard doors and switched up the handles.
Those simple changes made such a huge difference so now I want to wave my Scandi-Rustic-Industrial wand over the remaining, untouched dining space. This time I am unbelievable excited to have a little help from my ultimate fairy godmother: Neptune. My love affair with this British brand started 10 years ago when I came across one of their beautiful kitchens on holiday in Norfolk but their story actually started 10 years earlier with a hammock hand sewn at a the kitchen table.
It turned out to be a case of from small hammocks big beautiful lifestyle brands grow. Today there are 26 stores across the UK with a handful more in Europe all of which are gorgeous destination experiences in themselves. Gorgeous home inspiration galore on the Neptune Instagram Page.
Whilst it is not currently possible to visit their beautiful shops in person, the online Neptune experience is just as swoonworthy. I regularly lose myself down an inspiration rabbit hole on their website, Pinterest and Instagram pages and the great news is that lots of the helpful services they offer in store such as design consultations are now available virtually instead.
