Pigeon light



New on my wishlist: pigeon light by Thorsten Van Elten.

I want a fun house

Me and my boyfriend bought a house a couple of months ago, which we are now renovating. It was kinda in bad shape and we are rebuilding everything ourselves, so it will take a while before we can move in. That means I have a lot of time to find inspiration!
The one thing I don't want is a boring house, it really has to be fun and colourful.These gorgeous homes truly inspire me.









I'm sorry, but I can't remember where I got all these pictures from. Probably most came from one of my favorite interior design blogs like decor8, Apartement Therapy or Sfgirlbybay.

Dark Horse



You should really see this movie!

Granny Square






Here is a little project I'm working on, a crochet afghan. I got the wool from a thriftstore. It's so much fun to find pretty colour combinations!

Guerrilla Gardening


source

Have you ever heard of guerrilla gardening? Guerrilla gardeners try to make their neighbourhood a little greener by cultivating flowers and vegetables on neglected pieces of land.
I love the idea of guerrilla gardening! Unfortunatly there isn't a local group active where I live. Maybe I should start one?

Here is a video of the London guerrilla gardeners harvesting their lavender field.



You can read more on guerrilla gardening on their website here.

Hello?

Lately I've been looking at a lot of retro telephones. I think they are so pretty (especially in comparison with the phones of today).





But I especially like these princess phones (the pink ones are my favorite!)

Happy Christmas!

Happy Christmas everybody! Hope you all have a wonderful time!

Caged Bird

Note to self: I need to get me an antique birdcage and fill it with beautiful birds like these.



(forgot where I found the picture)

Indoor garden






Wherever I live, I surround myself with plants. I think plants are so beautiful and it makes me so happy to give them love and see them grow. Also I'm always on the lookout for pretty and funny planters.
So here's peek at my little indoor garden!

Catherine Holm kitchenware is the best. I wish I had an whole collection, but unfortunatly it's become very expensive on the internet! A few months ago I did have the luck to find a catherine holm bowl for only €5 on a market in Brussels. It looks like this:

A girl can't have enough nail polish



In my opinion a girl can't have enough nail polish. That's why I want the whole new line of American Apparel nail polish. So perfect!

Arty oval ring

This ring by Yves Saint Laurent makes me drool. But apparantly, it makes lots of people drool because it is sold out everywhere. Which makes me sad, because I want it so bad!!!

My First crush

My 2 favorite animated films from Julia Pott:





She also has a cute etsyshop here

a little magic

What is the most magical thing you ever saw in your life?
For me, it has to be the time I was riding my bike in the street I lived, when I suddenly saw that there was a house which was entirely filled with balloons. I think I stopped and stared at it for about 10 minutes, it was the most amazing thing I ever saw.
Turned out it was an artproject and you could actually go inside the house. So me and a friend went. It felt so unreal, so magical, like being in the dream of a little child. A very wonderful dream that is!



boogie woogie bugle boy

I'v been listening to alot of music from the forties lately. I especially like the Andrew Sisters. This song (and clip) makes me smile everytime I hear it!

Somewhere you don't want to be







I bought this comic album for a friend of mine... But now I have read it... I kinda want to keep it myself!

The comic is called 'Ergens waar je niet wil zijn' and it's just wonderful. It's made by Brecht Evens and he is really talented. Go and visit his website and blog!
