Four creative friends exchanging objects and photographing their personal collections resulted in these beautifull images. This little project was initiated by Echoes; a collaborative journal. This is one of their older projects check the site for their recent works.

These photo’s are made by my friend Sohia who is a stylist and photographer and also did the photoshoot for Made by l e n n e b e l l e! Aren’t these pretty! This is at my small workspace at home.
Flight Home

(no, am not coming back home already from Vietnam!)
These pretty buttons are not actual buttons but part of a project I discovered some time ago. It is called ‘Thuisvlucht’ (Flight Home) by dutch artist Anneke Jakobs. All these parts belong to an old chair cut up in thousands of pieces. All pieces are sold (I bought one) and spread all over the world. You can even see these on her website with Google maps! These pretty pieces are still available!
