What the postman brought me

I have really been spoiled lately. A few weeks ago I won a give-away on the lovely blog Bloesem kids.
I won a pack of beautiful greetings cards from Australian Based designer Tiel from TskTsk. You can find more of her work here.

shop update: A valentine gift for CAT lovers

Hi! have you met Theodore?

I enjoy the silence and rest on mondays.
Weekends at ours are always busy and noisy, lots of errands to run and driving kids from here to there. family days are fun but mondays are always a relief....

This monday morning I packed the kids and myself in with lots of scarves, woolen mittens and hats, and off we were, biking to school. The snow is almost gone from te streets so it's safe again to drive!
So what else then a 'warm packed' Monday moodboard!

I hope you enjoyed the weekend and are ready for a good start of the week!

what the postman brought me...

I love shopping handmade, and during the Christmas sale rush, I spoiled myself a bit with some pretty things that were already some time on my wishlist.
I love the work of Amsterdam based Designer Leililaloo,I simply adore the way she combines her illustration talent and her knitting skills. Her world of Polkadots, flowers, teapots, colors, houses, stools,... brings me in a happy moody! (find her blog here.)
Look what I bought!
In fact this is a necklace, I love the illustration, the long legs and the red pumps! I use it now to decorate, but I know one day I'll wear it on a lovely sexy dress , watch me!

And sweet Dana added again a nice surprise: A handprinted, fabric brooch: I am very happy with it, although my face does not show that on te picture :-))

if you want to know what I got from Dana somet ime ago, read here.
