Home ♥ My desk






We had it all planned out for the weekend... But apparently we needed to buy a sofa, have a babysitter come over (our first in almost 7 years!) so we had a romantic dinner together at Basaal, worry about my mothers' health (she will be fine, thankfully!) & do some film shopping (yes, they do sell them at stores, so you'll save on shipping-costs!).

Luckily I did manage to make lists & clean my desk.
I decided to take down my inspiration wall, so it's a bit more of a calm space now. Don't know how long it will last though... :)
The little prince is my desk friend, protecting my MT. Got me some little Moo cards last week, I really love how they turned out.

Happy monday & have a great week!

Cards from France

Do you still receive cards from friends or family that are on holiday? And do you write cards to family & friends when your on holiday? 
I do still enjoy writing cards and because I do...



If you want to receive a card from France this coming july, please leave a comment.
Coming wednesday I will pick a few names at random to put on my address list!

Friday again

The countdown has really begun! Just 2 weeks in school left & then we are on our way to France. This time with the caravan & we decided on Brittanny. (If you have some must see/do tips of this region please let me know!)
This weekend I am going to start on the list of things to do before we leave & things we need to take with us. And get a head start on cleaning, sorting & decluttering. 
Most of the time I neglect the whole housekeeping-thing. But I just want to return from our holiday in a clear & clean house and that makes the last days before departure always a bit more hectic.
Tell me do you have some pre-holiday stress like this, or do you just throw everything in a suitcase & leave?



To help with the cleaning this little gnoom arrived today, send to me by Huis lief huis.
Thank you Carolien, it's so sweet.

Hope you all have a good weekend!

Weekend pics






We had a wonderful relaxed weekend! Did some cloudstaring. 
Had tea but also some espresso.
Made a 'Chinese' bunting for the schoolparty & found amongst the pieces of paper a beautiful paper kimono.
Visited my mother in law to get a traditional Maluku sarong & kebaya to wear to the schoolparty (this years' theme is the world!).
Two of her sisters came as well & opened up a true-textile-treasurechest! 

Ofcourse we celebrated fathersday with a nice breakfast & some great gifts the boys made him!

Hope you had a great weekend as well!
Have a wonderful new week!
