Ana is a funny and creative Croatian lady who is allergic to exercise, loves books and claims to be married to the most wonderful man in universe who happens to be her “partner in crime” :) when it comes to DYI around the house. She shares a two bedroom apartment in London - the “colourful city that never made us feel like strangers” - with her husband and adorable three year old daughter Dora.

Marga (short for Margarita) is one of the wonderful and talented “home owners” I have been fortunate to discover through Flickr. She was born in the warm and sunny Spain but currently lives and works in the not so warm or sunny London. Marga whose background is in graphic design, created a range of beautiful bags, tea towels and pillows, made from organic materials, which are available through Chocolate Creative.

I must confess it was the yellow sofa in that beautifully lit room that popped out and spoke to me when I first spotted Jan’s home in one of my favourite Flickr Groups - the Interior Styling group.

No, I’ve not started to blog in French :), Chez Larsson translates to "At the Larsson's" which is also the name of one of my all time favourite design blogs. Benita is the über-talented lady in charge of this stylish household, where she lives in with her husband Martin, teenage son Wille and two cats, Mini and Bonus. Benita describes herself as “a neat freak, an organizing fanatic and someone who truly enjoys getting her hands dirty”, she also loves DIY, gardening and renovating, sewing and crafting. Benita works ( not sure how she gets the time for all of this  :) ) as a visual merchandiser, and has used her home as an experimental lab for her many hobbies.
