I’ve always been drawn to Swedish interiors – both classic\/country and modern. \u00a0But as I’m planning to a trip to Scandinavia this summer, I’m really delving into Swedish style.<\/p>\n

As frequent O<\/em>ccasional Salers<\/em><\/strong> yourselves (right!?), I’m sure you’ve come across some lovely pieces that could be worked into a room with just about any style. \u00a0Well, any classic style. \u00a0And the thing with Swedish interiors, both classic and modern, is that they’re basic enough that they’re quite flexible in terms of incorporating varying accent colors, furniture and d\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n

Take a look:<\/p>\n
