tomorrow

...veronik is coming back! the time went quit fast, but still, i missed her! (2 pictures from the day renilde and me were watering the plants in her place)

found 2 nice blogs recently: blauwe ballon and a home is not a motel.

waaauw!

it's good to have a blog. when i posted yesterdays post i didn't know about Jordi Ferreiro, but elina commented about him. he did this great books- workshop with kids. and so many other nice projects! take a look on his flickr! it all looks fantastic!!

miekes pins

packing

tomorrow veronik is leaving for a trip to New York City. 

if anyone has some good tips about what to go see, you are

welcome to write them. good luck to mieke who will open

the shop by herself in the meanwhile.

fresh

we changed some furniture in the shop. it looks bigger now. and nice with more white. it's always very difficult to make photographs, because of the light and also because we don't have a very good camera. so you all have to come here to see how fresh it looks!

beautiful

really love these photographs. beautiful place, nice light. they are from carlota santa maria. and they are in apartamento 3.

good news

just found out that anu tuominen has a website. did you know that? many photos on it, ansd finally a clear view on when and where she will have an exhibition!

summer look

veronik made the new window very very nice. we have some beautiful new 3D animal puzzles! Now, the shop is going through a change. we picked up some furniture tonight and tomorrow the hard work starts. we'll show you the result very soon!

gary, gary and albert

2 handmade robots named gary walked into our store yesterday. we are happy to have them here. also, the small albert hangers are back!!

sunday

berries all day and breakfast for dinner.

pyjama infinity

it's a flipbook, so it's impossible to photograph. but had to show you this. it's made by elina minn, and it shows a bear with a pyjama with little bears on it. it's sold out on the napa site, but there are still a few copies on this site. they also show the beautiful little book in a video.
it's so simple but oh so perfect!

the latest ones

look at these: pinocchio, mr. oignon, the parrots, the mosquitos, russian mowgli!! we are proud to show you our latest pins! probably the pink lion won't make it to the shop....!

actief wonen

our blog is mentioned in the new issue of actief wonen. nice to see! and they chose everyones favorite picture again: the potholders :)

really like these photographs by ida lehtonen. found them on her flickr.

saw these pictures on a few blogs, but that really is a beautiful place!

schoolwork

elisabeths post today reminded me of one of the best ebay finds i ever won. it's a bundle of exercises one girl/boy made in school: collars, pleats, smock, buttonholes,... he or she wasn't a very good student, you can see. but love the way it looks.
