When I went to Iceland at Easter I was determent to buy a house...

Not a big one...just this perfect size zinc beauty.

I ventured to Reykjavik with an old girlfriend where we had lunch and then we walked up and down Laugarvegur in the rain. There were so many shops that pulled us in, I didn't buy much but enjoyed just looking and seeing what was new. At the top of Laugarvegur is my favorite store

Puko og Smart. The store is awesome and filled with all kinds of trinkets. That's where I found my house and I was pleasantly surprised with the price but I paid only $35 for it. So with that said I am craving more houses to add to my collection...It would be awesome to own one larger one

Since I was snapping in the first place I just kept on going so the following photos are just some extra that I am showing today of my apartment in Iceland!

Just a few little things that make me happy

Home Away From Home

This year I am playing Santa, so it's my turn to take a trip to Iceland to bring my family Christmas gifts.
I arrived here on Friday morning and have been pretty busy ever since, meeting up with friends and family. Today is really the first day to relax and take it easy. No plans, just me enjoying time in my flat that me and my Husband invested in 2 years ago. This apartment is very close to my heart...it's my home away from home and I absolutely love it. Would you like to take a tour? Well here you go...Welcome!

Hope you enjoyed the visit or "Innlit" like we say in Iceland

So cozy in Iceland

This time of year is dark here in Iceland but we light it up with Christmas lights and candles. Here is the arrangement in my apartment. It's a simple thing I put together. A tray and a holly from Ikea and some pine cones...I walked by a flower store here in my hometown on Saturday and saw this ceramic house in the window which I couldn't resist! I think I will bring it with me to the US when I leave. In case you are wondering about the reindeer....it's a candle! I had totally forgotten about them, I guess I brought a couple of them last year with me when we spent the new years here and completely forgot....What a nice surprise for me...The price sticker was still on them.....Marshalls $12.99
Needless to say I am getting a little sticker shock regarding prices on regular household items here. I don't mind when I am buying handmade items or designer things but it's amazing how much money everything costs here and I am just talking about silly little things that cost nothing in America.
Here is a little sneak peak of my arrangement. I took this picture at 3:30 pm and it was getting dark already

More to come on the apartment....It's hard to take pictures and beat the daylight...
