blessings with a capital B

A blessing post on monday instead of on sunday. Because of having some weeks off, the days of the week seem to get a little bit messed up which feels like a blessing itself.
Just like:
* spending so much time with the kids, sometimes while catching up with my BFF or with a lovely friend at the edge of a swimming pool while enjoying the sun
* visiting the musical Sister Act with our eldest, not only watching a beautiful and funny musical but also his facial expression of admiration and impressions
* receiving nice requests for sponsoring, collaboration and give-aways on my blog: to be continued in the next weeks!
* and last but not least enjoying so much love with a capital L!

friday pin love | pinspiration



Pins in black and white and beautiful quotes on my Pinterest-boards.
Love the pinsipration I get from scrolling on Pinterest or pinning new pins wandering around in the webworld.
This week (12-18 August) the first PIN gallery is taking place in Amsterdam with a selection of great pictures collected by eight Dutch pinners, initiated by Studio Sjoesjoe and 101woonideeen. Unfortunately I can't be there this week, but I hope this pop-up exhibition will be continued in the near future!

lovely blessings


My lovely blessings this week:
*having my kids back home again and three weeks ahead to spent together with even one extra day off this friday :)
*spending our friday afternoon at Het Koelhuis; a cool and relaxed place to eat, drink and spent time with people you love; a place worth a seperate blogpost
*having spontaneous sleepovers
*painting Pip's pink bedroom wall silver; looking forward to styling her room tomorrow; and
*realizing health is not self-evident, but really worth a lot like experiencing real love!

finca love




I have a crush on this Spanish finca: the concrete floor, the basic white and grey walls and styling. 
With some accessories I used to sell in my webshop like the horse swing, the tire basket and the crochet stool cover. Realizing I miss my creative job sometimes....
The Finca Pura Vida is a B&B in Benissa run by a dutch family. Such a great place to spent your holidays!

counting down my to-do blessings


This week I worked fulltime, like next week, trying to finish my long to-do-list at work before having three weeks off.
My to-do list at home is even longer, but is shrinking day-by-day.
But don't you worry, I also tried to relax once in a while, cherishing the lovely weather, sleeping in the hammock and enjoying the fact that my head is getting emptier by every to-do thing I line through!

(pop-up) shop design

Such a creative and minimalistic design for a pop-up store. Inspired by shipping boxes and designed for a pop-up shop for Zalando in Berlin. The units can be moved and positioned everywhere in the shop but also re-used.
Love the concept!

Designed by Sigurd Larsen, a Danish architect living in Berlin and developing such great projects and furniture!

crush on pink neon





I've always had a crush on pink in my interior. Not to much, but just a small touch.
So I adore this great styling in the dutch interior magazine VTwonen by Frans Uyterlinde with pictures by Jansje Klazinga
Having plans to repaint the pink wall on Pip's room with silver-metallic paint, I think I'm going to add some neon pink details :)
