new things

A little peep in my studio
I have been working on new things:
in between the cutting of leather flowers
I have done some soldering
to be listed in my shop soon!

A pie a week: salmon spinach pie

easy peasy, quickly made, child friendly, healthy and oh so yummie!
Ah well,
my four kids eat like wolves if I serve this pie.


you need:
premade french puff pastry
350 gr creamy spinach
200 gr slices of smoked salmon
150 gr emmenthal cheese
2 a 4 eggs
2 spoonfulls of mais (thickening) flour
pepper & salt

prebake the puff pastry (bladerdeeg) for 5 minutes in an oven of 160 °c.
put the slices of smoked salmon on it


make a mix of spinash, eggs, cheese and mais flour, pepper and salt
pour this mix on the salmon


finish with a handfull of cheese
and put in the oven of 180° for 25 minutes


no time to picture the final result,
The pie disappeared before I knew :-)

My creative workspace

lovely colored Buttons I found on the flea market at Sint Jacobs (Ghent) last friday


Pimping my cat brooches

Have you ever used the stackables?




I think
I am the queen of
improper use



I bought these (and those are NOT tupperware (much too expensive for me!)
I found them in the Wibra
in my neighbourhood
(2 Euro for a set!)
I bought a bunch of sets
filled them with my bead mixes
and stapled


hm, again,
a little bit more order in my workroom :-)

A pretty birthday present

A while ago I got a very nice present from a dear friend!
The pretty 'Abstract' necklace was a birthday present!
yes, it's a while ago,
have been so busy since....
but I have worn it a lot
and always forgot to take pics...
but here it's is, and it fits perfect with my fabric earrings studs!

Can you guess who is this dear friend?
I am gonna meet her in Amsterdam in a few weeks,
and I am pretty excited about it!

For who really has no idea, find her Etsy shop here.

and you can find my little earstuds here.

(and ok, I know, I rarely comb my hair :-))

sunny days

beautiful weather ,
as this is so rare these days, we try to enjoy a lot!
eating outside
yummie salads and ice cream
little bike rides with the kids
and me playing with water and soap!

As I am running out of cat brooches,
it's time to make some more,
Because I want to take a bunch of them to the Amsterdam Fair 6th of june
they are lightweight, so they will keep me company on the train to A'dam.
