Make your bed with lots of Pillows

To get a nice bed-making, it takes a lot of pillows in different sizes. Use at least two, preferably three pillows in the size 65 x 65 cm. Let them be in a color so that they pick up any color also available in the duvet covers and pillowcases. Put them back against the headboard. In front of them , place two standard pillows size 60 x 60 cm. At the front, place two or three small pillows in size 35 x 45 cm. These little pillows should be the same color as the pillowcases. Now you have a very inviting bed and it is very tempting to lay down among all the cushions and maybe read the latest issue of Vogue with a deliciously Candle lit on a table beside the bed. Have a nice evening, Annelie

Summer dreams


Here in Sweden the sun starts to show more and more and I have started to long for the summer. I think of a beautiful green garden with lots of blooming trees and bushes and lovely scents from the flowers in the air. Why no put a bed with beautiful bed linen under one of these trees There can one lie down and look up on the blossoms and the leafs. Later this spring when the degrees have risen and when the nature wakes up from its winter rest I promise to post such a picture on the blog. Which of my collections (on millefeuille.se) would suit my outside bed best? Vote on my blog and I send the winner a set of three lavender satchels. The winner will be the first person that suggests the bed linen alternative that gets the most votes from all of you readers.

Calm sanctuary



In these days when things happens so fast I think it is important to stay up and breathe sometimes. In a hectic life with lots of work and meetings it is important to have a place where you can feel totally relaxed and happy. For me that place is my bed room. I like a luxurious touch and in my bed I like bed linen that breathes elegance and calmeness. That also includes the the feeling of them that must be cool, very soft and luxurious. When I started to design bed linen it was this kind of design that inspired me. I thought of a nice peaceful garden in Provence with butterflies dancing outside an open balcony door and a light smell of lavender passing by. Another inspirational picture for me was an old residence at the riviera with large rooms and marble floors and lots of vases with fresh flowers. Why not a stunning view of the ocean and the sound of music from outside.

Oh, all these inspirational pictures makes me long for the summer.
