Thank you Valorie for again featuring our book!!! All of the gorgeous photos were taken by Jon Monson and L.Langdon Ergmann. We think they really captured the Swedish spirit in these American homes. Thank you so much for pointing out to your raders how very simple and easy it really is to infuse your home with some Swedish style!
Skal!
