When I scroll through the album on my phone, I’m still impressed by the photos of Anselm Kiefer’s exhibition last February.
What a wonderful world this artist has managed to create. His work radiates a serene beauty but also restlessness. Somehow you can feel there’s more to see than just the image itself.

It’s a fact that I have a great eye for detail.
So it happens quite regularly that I get distracted by things around me during a conversation.
Of course in France it wasn’t that much different;
such beautiful colours, shapes and textures I couldn’t resist capturing on film…

Did you give your father a nice present for Father’s Day yesterday?
Maybe a nice brooch that fits his hobby…or was it a tasty dinner or a visit to the cinema?
Whatever you did, I hope you gave him a big hug and had a joyful day!

We travelled trough France for two weeks with our little vintage camper van.
We visited many beautiful places, castles and museums in Burgundy and surroundings.
We’re so proud:
our Wally was in top shape and didn't make a sound!

While the weather outside doesn’t seem to bother about the fact that it’s summer time,
we stay warm and cosy inside.
Hope it’s going to be better soon…
Nevertheless, have a nice Sunday everyone!

Here’s another little jumper! This time for someone who has a special reason to cherish the symbol of an anchor…
Crocheted in soft nude tones; the colours the recipient truly loves the most.

We have a lot if blue tits and coal tits in our garden. It is lovely to see them flying around, especially now they have nests with little chicks.
So we decided to buy some mealworms;
you can feed these worms to the birds all year round, they contain a lot of proteins and also serve as food for the little chicks.
The parents have flown back and forth…now it's this youngster’s turn!

I own a second hand shirt that I’m very fond of,
so I crocheted a tiny look-a-like copy.
It turned out quite well I must say!

Last year I made a stitched frame for newborn ‘Lucia’ in the colours of her big sisters’ birth announcement card; a while ago I embroidered one for Rosa herself,
in the colours of her little sisters’ birth announcement card.
It’s nice to have a picture from the to frames side by side!
Order your personal frame in my Etsy shop!

When I saw this gnome in the shop, I couldn’t resist taking him home with me.
Probably it has something to do with my childhood; when I was about 6 years old, I loved to watch the series ‘Kabouter David’ on the television:
this little rascal (drawn by Rien Poortvliet) experienced all kinds of adventures and traveled all over the world with Swift the fox.
Now I have my own little friend with red pointy hat!

Every year on April the 27th it’s King’s Day in The Netherlands. Generally we celebrate with orange attributes, even the cakes or ‘tompoucen’ have this colour.
But in Maastricht we have pies, that’s even better!

An abundance of colours!
When you live in the Netherlands, it is quite unusual if you’ve never visited the Keukenhof.
So when my brother asked if we could go there together, it was the perfect opportunity.
What a wealth of tulips and beautifully landscaped flower beds, unbelievable!
