Last minute Halloween costumes

Maybe your busy with every day errands, or with creating a last minute halloween outfit, or maybe your worried about hurricane Sandy ( I´ll pray for those who suffer from the Hurricane...) Let me at least give you a little smile! I came across this cheap and original last minute costume ideas over at Etsy

Thought this outfit was perfect for single guys...

And turn your bebe into a mini Frida Kahlo!

Have fun.

Monogram necklace

You might have seen them all over blogland, but I also fell for these gold monogram necklace. They are unique as they are first drawn and then cut by hand. I had mine made with the initials of our Baby boy Matteo. If you are interested in one, visit Marinette from Korea, they come beautifully wrapped in a giftbox.

lunch table in my office

Sorry for not posting so often, I am enjoying my holidays with mr beau and the bebe.

Today is my last day at the office and I wanted to show you my vieuw, when I have my quick lunch.

A picture of my dear friend and world-traveller/photographer Masha, an esty hummingbird painting, and vintage found black and white painting of Rome, and vintage horse plate and zebra monogram plate. I am leaving mr Beau home alone as I am on my way to stay with family and friends in Amsterdam. Enjoy your holidays!

Dictionary art

I came across these adorable prints over at exlibris etsy shop and I think they will look great to add them to a wall collection.

yes indeed!

DIY art - gold dots

Are you ready for the weekend! I have been looking forward to this weekend as one of my best friends is coming over from Holland to spend the weekend with us and cuddle with Matteo.

 I have a confession to make...I have a crush on anything with gold dots, so when I saw this DIY art, over at Natalie´s blog called Mint Love Social Club, with gold confetti it made my fingers itch to make something similar.

Nice right?

The inspiration for this canvas was Kate spade dinnerware

If you want to make this yourself or buy it, mint love social club, Natalie has an etsy shop too.

New love - Frieda Sophie

I love the jewelry Frieda Sophie makes. Se has an Etsy shop full of goodies, most of the made from precious stones and gold.

my favorite Etsy picks today

Sometimes I can´t help myself, falling in love with the vintage items from the sellers over at Etsy.
Here is what I picked out for you:

This faux bamboo night stand with ring pulls. The same seller also offers the elephant as a vase.

These pretty and original vintage vogue prints, so you can make a collection of them

to hang them either in your closet or boudoir.

This vintage crane bird ice bucket with gold detailing is very Lonny Magazine.

This is a vintage lucite ice bucket/chest, not cheap but such a great eye catcher on your bar cart for sure.

Wedding mood

We are having an important wedding in 3 weeks, it´s my beau boyfriends brother who is getting married and the whole family is nervously happy! I was thinking that one day beau boyfriend and me are getting married, there are some etsy things I want to buy and some DIY things I would like to make, as I find details are important.
These are my favourite picks:

I do, do, do - would like to have these personalized matches.
How great are these fan wedding programs, especially if you have sunny weather on your special day these things are pretty and funcional.

this is sweet.

I would like to make these DIY upcycled lanterns and vases of radiator covers, thanks to centsational girl, who posted about this at her blog and for the DIY instrucions at Ruffled blog






I have loved about everything of Jen of Made By Girl´s wedding (above 3 images), I will surely use it as inspiration.

And the dress, no idea yet, something simple, pretty and comfortable.

Flower arrangements I would like to do myself, as making a wedding favour, cd´s with music that was played at the wedding, not very original, but it´s the weddingfavour I used to most of a previous wedding we attended.
And white flip flops for all of our guests, because I would like to get wed.......

In Ibiza! Oooh I am getting carried away now I have told you far too much ;)

Look what blogging made me do with my office

I am happy the pillows and the poster complement each other. I just got them all in and

placed the poster in a Ikea Ribba frame. My office is coming together and I am more happy working here.

Etsy pillow - Loubella

Yesterday I purchased 2 of these flamingo pink pillowcases from esty seller Loubella. I was looking for pink pillows with a geometric pattern, and Loubella has some cute pillows for sale!

What made me decide to buy hers and not others? The fact that they had an overlocked pattern, and the pattern is on both sides of the pillow, she ships internationally and they are well priced, me happy!

Can you tell i am in the mood for pink? I made a new header for this blog, it has a lot of pink in it too.

Other pretty pillows from Loubella:

I am not sponsored by Loubella, I just really liked her pillows.

p.s. don´t forget to comment on my first giveaway of in the post before!
