neat + tidy

I can be really organized if I put my mind to it, but it just doesn't happen that often. That's why I am a lover of (and limit myself to) closed storage. You know those pretty glass kitchen cabinets or shelves instead of upper cabinets – yeah, never going to happen over here.

So naturally, i'm impressed when others can pull off this in their own home and not just in a magazine. While perusing flickr today I found the most organized home I've seen in ages. Chez Larsson, located in Stockholm, Sweden has the loveliest home filled to the brim with organizational madness. I love her use of gobs of white (the swedes seem to love white interiors, and i love them for it) with pops of bright colors.

Also, I LOVE that her cat's names are Mini and Bonus.

And now, prepare to be amazed:

oh good lord that place is amazing! That actually inspires me to go get some storage things for my desk because her puts mine to serious sad shame.

I thought she should have taken better pictures of her DS DIY entry because it seemed really great but you couldn't really get a sense of it, too bad.

You know that I cleaned my office after I saw these... oh god! To live in a space like that... a dream.
I'm sure they did a ton of tidying up beforehand though ;)

I did send in other photos of my D*S entry which also showed the doors in their location but it was their choice to post those two :)
