Papasan chair

Growing up in Asia, my home was furnished with rattan made furniture. I like the material and I think it suits the tropical weather very much.
In the past couple of years, we start to see rattan made furniture popping up in the Hungarian market. I am happy to see this variety of material available but somehow I'm just not keen to buy them for our home in Hungary...
Then a week ago, I found this photo and now I'm seriously considering a papasan chair !

Inspiration for the loo

First, she inspires me with her lovely kitchen . Now her loo's update will be going into my inspiration folder.

as seen on The Yvestown Blog

Our loo is narrow like hers (albeit not as spacious :( ) and I have bought the wainscoting thinking it would be nice for the loo but have not the gut to execute it. With this , I am thinking it would work in our space,too --- am so delighted to have seen this.

Compact storage

This would be perfect for our tiny bathroom!!
Searching through local Ikea I found only red and black are available .... hopefully white will be in stock in the future.

I like this combo

Normally bare wood walls would not be saved in my inspiration folder; however, I love how the owner contrast the white colour in it - Modern and fresh!
