This blog makes me happy; the photos, the words, the yummy recipies! Especially the sunday sort of light – posts! All very inpiring. Nicole from Forty-sixt at grace als has a shop where she sells amazing wooden cutlery and you can see her amazing photos all together at her Flickr account.
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.
* Have a nice weekend! I am sure I will! *
Fabric and materials are the passion of Mae Engelgeer. This passion results in unique objects, sculptures and installations. When you love ribbons this is the place to be! And these are just the ‘ultimate -autumn-keep your self warm-blankets’! See for your self at Frabric Freak.
Maybe you have seen this add by Stella Mc Cartney already! Always in harness for animal welfare Bambi is Stellas’ newborn star. She has always been a huge fan and Bambi reminds her of her mother. Isn’t it cute!
The overall theme: Love. The place: Paris. The concept: Eighteen five-minute love stories in all its forms and interpretations created by twenty-one different directors in various quartiers of Paris. This weekend I watched Paris je t’aime! It was special, divers and a celebration of the city of love, Paris.
Next month another city will celebrate love! New york, I love you. This time all stories are connected.
Watch the trailers! Paris je t’aime and New York I love you
This is just so amazingly pretty and so not wearable! Alida Alic makes the prettiest jewelry. She uses a self discovered process using plastic in combination with metals and stones! It is just surprising she can create such beautiful sculptural jewelry! She uses themes like ilusion for her designs. To me they look like pure poetry!
A long time ago I fell in love with this poster ‘For like ever’. I saw it on the cover of a magazine I bought in Canada; Domino Magazine. Not thinking I was able to buy it. A few months later I was sitting in the train to Amsterdam when I spotted this guy wearing a t-shirt with the same text! After some internet searching I found it at a Brooklyn NY based graphic design office ‘Village‘. They doubled the price but it is still available here.
