Great ideas for cute babygifts!

Yesterday I went hunting for an alphabet poster. In Dutch, to be more specific. And I need it before saturday, so no time left for webshopping. First I went to the biggest bookshop I could find. Yes, they had one. And it had the alphabet on it. But it didn’t look very nice. It looked [...]

As a designer, with an internet connection, I get frustrated inspired every day. There’s so much great stuff out there! In the early days, there was great stuff too, but at least you didn’t know it existed, so you could feel like you actually made something that hadn’t been made before.
I felt the same [...]

The best way to start the very first monday morning of this brandnew year? By looking out the window to see it’s snowing again! I sooo love winter, even though it’s cold (Mittens! Scarves! Beanies!) and icy (sliding on the sidewalk, feeling like a 9 year old again!).
This Winter Stamp set will help those of [...]

I shouldn’t be blogging about this, since I designed and sell my own (very handy and cool!) foldable lunchbox HappyWrapper, but oh boy, how I like this Goodbyn lunchbox! What I most like about it, is that it makes all other packaging unneccessary. So goodbye to drink cartons, plastic bags and aluminium foil. Less waste, [...]

If only I was crafty. If only I had two right hands. And a lot of patience. And 79 euro left to spend. I would sooo buy this Knit Kit by Wool and the Gang. Love the colours. Love the vintage feel. Love the pink details. Santa, please? Pretty please?

Like it? Know how to knit? [...]

Love these cute baby tees by designer Nate Duval! Especially like the cat, but the owl is super cute too. I think it’s amazing how easy it is to bling up a plain white shirt or onesie with just a nice drawing.
That’s what I like best of the iron on patches we made for Homemade [...]

We just recovered from making all the goodies for Jets 1st birthday. And now Lena’s 4th is coming up! It’s not till the end of november, but still, these kind of things need planning (especially when there’s a big house painting/moving thing and my own b-day to be considered in october!).
Sooooo. I’m already on the [...]

Jet turned one last week! So today we had to celebrate this big event at day care. We started at seven o’ clock making the poffertjes-strawberry-towers (easy peasy and sort of healthy too!), topping each of them of with a happy little dwarf. And we spend all last night making the ‘Complete Jarige Jet Kleurplaten-pakket’ [...]

Jet krijgt tandjes. 4 stuks heeft ze er al, waarvan er 2 pas half door zijn. Dat betekent dus volop kauwen op:

mijn sleutelbos
de stiften van grote zus Lena (liefst die zonder dop, natuurlijk)
de pink van papa
een doosje postzegels
een leeg blikje Cola Light

en zo nog wat vrij ongeschikte objecten. Natuurlijk heeft ze allerlei plastic bijtringen, die [...]

Tipje: speciaal voor Flavourites-lezers: 2 euro (ja, echt, 2 euro!) korting op BinkyBaby Koos, Mies en Arie!
— Meteen bestellen? Ga naar Flavourites, hier! —
BinkyBaby? Ehhhh… wat is dat ook alweer? BinkyBaby is een plat en zacht knuffelvriendje dat je met een simpel drukknoopje aan de speen vastmaakt. Zo kunnen jij en je kindje zijn speentje [...]
