I saw these amazing drawers for the first time at Bloesem. German based Schubladen is devoted to the ‘rescue’ of old drawers and gives them a new fantastic destination in furniture.

Did you have a penpal back in de days? I had! In Russia and in the USA. We send eachother presents like chocolat, stickers, matroskas and self recorded tapes (I still remember this song; Toy Soldiers!!). I still love the idea of writing letters, sending them as well as receiving them or even a small postcard. But because of e-mail unfortunatly our mailbox contains seldom a handwritten envelop.

This brought two people to the idea of writing personal handwritten letters to people all over the world. Starting with all 467 members of their home town! The goal was to initiate discussions among neighbours and to promote curiosity. It’s an art work consistsing solely of the discussion between the recipients about what on Earth these letters are, who sent them and why, etc.

Some of them are true pieces of art and not one is the same. Check out the whole project at their blog; Mysterious letters.

Starting this week with some kisses! Via this great Swedish blog Niotillfem I found this book Romance by photographer Chris Craymer. Sweet, sexy and adorable photos. I especially love those cuddle photos. It is one of the things I love doing most!

Today I will go to London with four of my best friends! Yeah!! I have been in London ages ago and can’t remember a thing but everybody says it is a great city! We have rented an appartment and ofcourse we will go shopping and have lots of cups of tea and most certainly go dancing! Hope to make some lovely photos!

This London papercut map made by Famille Summerbelle is great. Famille Summerbelle is a blog, shop with mainly papercuts for decorating childrens rooms. I love these maps! They also have Paris and soon a New York papercut map.
