Go do something!

A friend send me a photo from a movie premiere we had gone to with the kids. Under the photo it says- Tv -personality Isabelle McAllister with her kids Bettan and Della. I couldn’t stop laughing. Bettan in Swedish could be short for Elizabeth but you also name old cars Bettan and many times people refer personalities a bit as Peggy Bundy as Bettan. If you look at the photo below I think it’s Beppes facial expression, the fur, the hat and his colorful pants that makes is so funny along with that name – Bettan. Like an old little lady.

pia jane bijkerk The humid air and persistent drizzle last Saturday (actually the Saturday before last… it’s taken me quite some time to compose this post) did not deter us from having an intimate garden party to celebrate Laly’s second birthday. I have not hosted a party since we lived on the houseboat in Amsterdam, so I was feeling a bit daunted about the idea and wondered if I could do it without getting completely overwhelmed and stressed (the main reason why I don’t host parties – dinner ones or otherwise). I worked hard for the two weeks leading up to the event to be really present with my time and to let things go if they weren’t working out the way I intended, or if things happened that stopped me from being able to create exactly what I had envisioned. My intention was to try my best to have fun with each part of the process – painting the bunting, gathering the flora, cooking, setting up… I still got stressed, and we still had a family meltdown the day of the party.

Un blog créatif et d'inspiration … Je l’avoue … J’ai complétement craqué quand je l’ai vu ce magazine ! Depuis que je ne prends plus le RER direction Paris pour me rendre à mon travail, je ne dévore plus autant de magazines féminin ou créatif. Hier en me rendant dans un tabac/presse, j’ai aperçu deux magazines traitant des bracelets tendances :… Aujourd’hui, j’avais envie de vous montrer ma manière de ranger mes dies. ★ C’est quoi un die : Outil permettant de découper des formes ou des lettres (die-cut) avec une machine à découper pour moi c’est la Big shot. J’ai choisi les jolies petites boites en plastique de chez IKEA : J’ai ensuite faire des… A la suite de nombreux messages me demandant de test des encres vaporisées de chez Kesi’art … C’est chose enfin fait !

How About Orange Here's a look at our upstairs guest bathroom. Last night I covered an accent wall with removable wallpaper. I love it! IHeart Organizing Sometimes you just need to step away and take a break from a space and a project for everything to just click. That is what happened with my studio. My last update was back in March, and a few of you have checked in for a status report. Up until this past weekend there really wasn't much of anything to share. Small tweaks here and there but nothing too exciting overall. If you recall, I decided there was far too much happening in the space and it needed to be toned back and addressed from scratch.
