A holiday without the kids, it’s almost happening and although I’m having some mixed feelings about it..I know, as soon as we leave the house, we’re going to enjoy every moment of t...
Hidde is riding on a real bike for a few weeks now. The street in front of our house is starting to get too small for him already. Today we made our first bicycle tour. Not too far, because my nervou...

The past months I´ve been having problems with my laptop. This blurry screen is what I´m seeing lately: It started slowly with a flickering screen, once in a while. I discovered (after a lot of patie...
Too bad I´m no Donna Wilson. How great would it be to be able to create all kinds of nice and cute products and make a living out of it? A few months ago, I almost bought one of her cloud shaped knit...
Today I visited the Etsy showroom, in the new creatives spot to be: In De Ruimte in Utrecht. A nice selection of Dutch Etsy shop owners showed their handmade goodies. All enthousiastic creatives who ...
Last weekend I went to a small fleamarket. I didn´t find a lot, especially because I took Hidde with me. He ran so fast along the stalls, I didn´t have any time to recognize the small hidden treasure...
Thanks for your comments! Nice to hear the hearts plate was popular (even if it´s not perfect yet..). To choose the winners, I´ve made two groups; the ones who wanted the hearts plate and the other g...
Last weekend Jens got ill, this weekend it´s my turn. Luckily, the kids are having a great time at their grandparents house, so we were able to sleep untill 10! Although I´m still having a terrible h...
I´ve drawn some flowers to use as illustrions for ceramics. I just wanted to have some black lined illustrations, but the longer I worked in illustrator the more color it got..
Inspired by the beautiful blanket I´ve seen in the even more beautiful house of Diana van Ewijk (found via Bloesem), I´ve decided to make my own blanket. Photo by Henny van Belkom I´ve already starte...
Jens got a haircut this weekend and he was very pleased with it. He even took the time to pose for me! As happy as he looks here, only one day later he´s quite the opposite. It´s his turn to have a c...
I like the fact it´s still light when I´m cycling home from work. Spring is in the air, or am I being too optimistic now? The tulips in my home also contribute to my good mood. And suddenly, from a d...
This is the view from Hiddes bed. This is the light we have to leave on when Hidde is going to sleep. For almost two years now, it´s the last thing he sees before he closes his eyes. (And for just tw...

I´ve also bought the second version of my Envelop Geo love Geo pillow. The second colorset is much brighter than the first one. But it´s AMAZING..they perfectly fit together! So, 4 buyers, if you lik...
I´ve passed the Bebop store a few times the last weeks. Everytime I stop and take a look at the beautiful lamp of Piet Hein Eek. I really like the warm copper design and the way the light reflects on...
Nothing was wrong with Jens´attitude today. A little bit tired, but besides that, he dealed with ´the day after´ like a real mature two-year-old. He played with his new bike, read in the new books an...
Today little Jens turned two. Below a picture of our breakfast (in which he was more interested than his presents). Lunch looked similar, but with a slightly bigger birthdaycake. And diner? Well, he ...
Wow. Beautiful wool knotted pillows Not Knot from Ragnheiður Ösp Sigurðardóttir, a product designer from Iceland. I found them via Birkiland.
So, I did finish my Christmas card. (Look here and here for the earlier posts about it.) But because it´s a little too late to wish you a Merry Christmas, I only wish you all the best for 2012 and mo...
December was such a hectic month, it went by so fast. Looking through my pics, I realise there were many enjoyable moments. I don´t like the fact I´ve almost forgot them allready. Good intention for ...
Because I still don´t trust my skills on my kiln, I continue making ´before´and ´after´ pictures of the items I make. This time the one with the name on it, didn´t survive the kiln. The transfers cur...
I walked into these nice photos, made by Jannina van Barneveld and Arwen Schade. They are both following a photograpy course at UCK. I´ve tried to contact them to see more of their work, but no react...
I´ve booked succes experimenting with my kiln. It allready reached the max temperature (780 oC) within 4 hours, instead of the earlier ten hours! Now it will be so much easier and fun to plan to fir...
Still working on the christmas card. Still don´t know what the end result is going to be.. I´ve allready took a hundred pictures from my willing models. But I have to choose! Maybe I´m going to...
Today Hidde pointed out the beautiful color of the bushes, almost in front of our house. He said:`It looks like it´s on fire, mom!`. I was a little bit in shock I´ve never noticed this beauty so clos...
Inspired by the beautiful colors of the flowers in my home, and the yellow ones on Mireille´s blog, I´ve made this new pillow, which can be bought in my Envelop shop!
