I didn\u2019t have anything lined up, so your ideas came at just the right time. And as it happens, the ones I went for were completely unrelated to cosmetics, so this weekend I\u2019m giving my brain a break by not writing a single word about skin care!<\/p>\n<p>You asked for a tour of my home, but I felt I didn\u2019t have anything interesting to show you. The place is only half-done; I can\u2019t really say I\u2019ve tried to do anything about it since last summer (which is when I moved in). The <a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/musla-seinakalenteri-2015\/\">beautiful calendar from Musla<\/a> kick-started my inspiration, however, and I\u2019ve now been looking about me, considering what I might do.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00094.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2948\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00094.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0009\" width=\"730\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00094.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00094-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My home is beautiful and full of light; it has a really good atmosphere. The kitchen is straight from the 80\u2019s and makes me think of Carrie Bradshaw\u2019s bachelorette pad. The place is tidy and spacious, but still a bit haphazard, which suits me really well right now. I don\u2019t want to decorate the place and buy things just to buy them \u2013 I want things to flow at their own pace, and to use my intuition. It\u2019ll be interesting to see if I\u2019ll get this place sorted out before it\u2019s time to move again.<\/p>\n<p>I ended up photographing my home in its current state, and doing that, I realized that all my possessions have a story behind them, a reason for why they\u2019ve ended up in my home. Clutter gives me anxiety, and I don\u2019t really buy things on the spur of the moment. Hence, today\u2019s requested post is about my home and my favorite belongings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00139.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2949\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00139.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0013\" width=\"730\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00139.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00139-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I love glass and crystal.

You know those states or feelings that can\u2019t be described in words, no matter how good you usually are with them? Anyway, this thing I\u2019m talking about is <em>Sara Karlsson\u2019s<\/em> and <em>Pia Sievinen\u2019s<\/em> recently published book <strong><em>Hyv\u00e4n El\u00e4m\u00e4n Anatomia <\/em><\/strong>(\u201c<em>The Anatomy of a Good Life\u201d; <\/em>available, once more, at Proloque).<\/p>\n<p>When I first held the book in my hand, I was filled with a sense of Well-Being. The book felt good. It looks beautiful. It\u2019s the perfect shape and size. It opens nicely and is well made. But the most important thing, the actual content, is something you need to experience for yourselves. The photos are beautiful. The layout gives me palpitations. And reading it feels good. This is what the writers were after, of course, and they have succeeded perfectly. If I could only have one book in my bookcase, this would be it.<\/p>\n<p>Also, I am making peach bellinis for my next weekend breakfast. The recipe is in the book. The name, if you didn\u2019t catch it, is <em>Hyv\u00e4n el\u00e4m\u00e4n anatomia<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00532.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2952\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00532.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0053\" width=\"730\" height=\"980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00532.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00532-223x300.jpg 223w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Onto the bedroom. On my window-sill I have an ever-growing collection of rocks. I find them beautiful, and could easily go on a spur-of-the-moment rock-shopping spree. Most of the time, I\u2019ll visit <a href=\"https:\/\/somsola.com\/\">Somsola<\/a> when I feel like I need a specific rock. It usually ends up being the first one I lay eyes on. Some people are very sensitive to the healing energies of rocks, others think it\u2019s all nonsense. I don\u2019t care. I love their beauty, and have been able to sense the energies of two rocks, so far.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00561.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2953\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00561.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0056\" width=\"730\" height=\"491\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00561.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00561-300x202.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The bookshelf was inherited from my grandmother, and it is probably my favorite piece of furniture. It looks a bit empty, though, as I\u2019m not very good at filling or styling pieces like it, and I try to avoid amassing unnecessary trinkets. Maybe a small plant would do, one that doesn\u2019t fare well in direct sunlight? The top two shelves have begun to fill up with books, and I don\u2019t really want to expand my collection too much. Time for a small book inventory, I think.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0075.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2955\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0075.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0075\" width=\"730\" height=\"491\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0075.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0075-300x202.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There is an unforgettable story that goes with the jewelry box, which was given to me by my parents. I was four or five years old and we were on a trip somewhere in Finland for the summer holidays. My parents had promised to buy me a jewelry box. Naturally, I wanted the kind of ballerina box my cousin, whom you might\u2019ve seen on the blog, had. My father said that a ballerina box might not survive the trip home, that the figurine might fall of. I bought the lie and, somewhat reluctantly, accepted the bird-embossed black box, instead. I later fell in love with its canary yellow satin lining, and couldn\u2019t even muster up annoyance when, years later, the lie was exposed.<\/p>\n<p>Now, as an adult, with the box still decorating my bookshelf, I\u2019m actually grateful for that little white lie. A ballerina box would likely have broken twenty years ago.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00671.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2954\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00671.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0067\" width=\"730\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00671.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00671-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>These little ornament boxes were the only Iittala items I kept after selling the old flat. Not a single Kivi or Aalto candle holder will cross my threshold. Both boxes were given to me as a present. The larger one was a graduation present from an ex, and is currently housing my lip balm collection \u2013 I\u2019ll be sharing the recipe for the one on the far right. The cameo pot is a Christmas gift from a dear friend.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0132.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2962\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0132.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0132\" width=\"730\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0132.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0132-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I love the scent of Neal\u2019s Yard Remedies\u2019 room spray, and I usually finish my house-cleaning by spritzing it about. The scented candles and diffusers are from the same set, and can be found at <a href=\"http:\/\/kauppa.jolie.fi\/tradetracker\/?tt=10424_12_187948_&amp;r=%2Fbrand%2F32%2Fneals-yard-remedies\">Jolie<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Sprayable room scents are great, and can also be used to make clean sheets extra fragrant. Otherwise I usually stick to burning essential oils in a burner from Indiska, which sits on top of a sideboard inherited from my grandmother. The sideboard could also use a few ornaments or maybe plants, but only after I\u2019ve put up the photograph by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mikko-rasila.com\/\">Mikko Rasila<\/a>, that he gave me for my birthday.<\/p>\n<p>This gorgeous writing desk was <em>meant <\/em>to be my work desk. And it was, for a while. Then it was taken over by ingredient packages from Aroma Zone, and now there\u2019s little space for anything else. It\u2019s a good thing it has a lid, because there\u2019s a <em>lot<\/em> of jars in there. You can also glimpse my other favorite piece of furniture, a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.finnishdesignshop.fi\/huonekalut-tuolit-normann-copenhagen-knot-knot-tuoli-p-6157.html\">Normann Copenhagen Knot chair<\/a>, given to me by my parents for Christmas. I don\u2019t know about you, but the chair made me think of<em> Coco Chanel<\/em>. I\u2019m sure the <em>mademoiselle<\/em> would have gladly spent an hour or two lounging about in it, cigarette in one hand, a glass of port in the other.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00853.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2956\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00853.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0085\" width=\"730\" height=\"1162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00853.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00853-188x300.jpg 188w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_00853-643x1024.jpg 643w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On the bed we have Jeri the dog.

This was definitely an impulse buy. I was buying <a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/en\/its-all-good-gwyneth-paltrow\">a cookbook by another film star<\/a>, when I clapped eyes on this. Cameron is a gorgeous woman, and I figured the book might provide inspiration for one of my own projects. But that feeling might just have been due to Cameron herself: the book hasn\u2019t really given me any new insights as of yet. The Orange and Ginger shea butter from Moksa is divine, however, and sits on my bedside table because I like to use it on my feet at night. I bought the jar at <a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/en\/pur-holistic-wellbeing\">P\u00dcR<\/a>, next door to Tavastia.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_01141.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2960\" src=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_01141.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0114\" width=\"730\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_01141.jpg 730w, https:\/\/katjakokko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_01141-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t believe in letting beautiful clothes languish at the back of your closet.

If you have any brilliant d\u00e9cor ideas, let me hear them. Apart from the calendar by Musla, my walls are still completely bare, and the only overhead light I have is in the kitchen. I\u2019m the world\u2019s pickiest lamp-buyer. Overhead lights are too much, unless they\u2019re halogen ones, but as I can\u2019t renovate the place to have halogens installed, I\u2019ll need some other bright ideas. I do love smaller lamps, however, and could see myself putting a few of them in the same space to provide light.
