Clarisonic

How I love my new best friend, I recently purchased a Clarisonic mia 2, just as a present for myself, and I was amazed how clean my face is after using it. It even diminished a frown line I had on my forehead! I placed it on a beautiful shell that was a present from my mom. It comes in handy to keep my Clarisonic clean. Best buy of the year. xoxo

Happy weekend everyone.

unusual headboards

I am such a vintage lover, so I was very awed to see that they used as a headboard. 

So what about these wicker headboards, just lovely. To have one of them painted in your favorite color lets it pop out!

What a great idea to use a big vintage mirror as a headboard. This is perfect if you are decorating on a low budget as I have seen many of these kind of mirrors, but found them too big or odd shaped to hang them in a hall above a vignette, but as a headboard its perfect.

It amazes me more and more how multifunctional pallets are. I have seen chairs, tables etc but never as a headboard.

These are 3 very diferent styles of headboards, but all 3 very lovery!

Gold accents in the bedroom

I am such a big fan of gold accents in the bedroom. A wallpaper, headboard, pillow or a lamp something needs to be gold. It a warm rich color that especially now in the wintermonths invites you to snuggle up in your bed. In the first two pictures, both gold pillows are from Caitlin Wilson. In the last picture, the golden leaf wallpaper is from Osbourn and little Asuka wallpaper, wich I love!

Printic is fantastic!

This wonderfull Parisian based company called Printic, prints your iphone pictures (Facebook and Instagram as well) at the most easiest way. You need to install the app and then select the pictures you want to have printed and voila, they reach your mailbox in a pretty orange box if you choose the maximun amount of prints. They come only in a one size but if you want you can personalize them too. A minimum of 3 prints, and they cost 0,99$ each and free delivery worldwide.

I once spend 3 hours adding the images to an usb stick and then to have them printed in a store, waisting another 2 hours, it was worth it but now with Printic I can order pictures in a relaxed way, sitting on the sofa or from my cozy bed in the weekends, knowing it takes a few days for them to arrive to my doorstep.

Vive la Printic!

We are back

Dear All...It´s been a while and if you stopped reading, I don´t blame you. Thanks for the sweet messages from all over the world, saying you missed my posts and worrying if I was all right.

I am getting back to my old self, i think I just came into the most busiest time of my life not knowing how to juggle everything. Pregancy is going well, got a huge tummy already, people think I get into labour any minute but I still have 10 weeks ahead.

Matt is growing up so fast...amazing that babytime is over. He understands everything in Spanish and Dutch, such a clever boy. I hired a nanny, she will be helping me everyday in the mornings with matt and also helps me in the office, untill the new baby is born.

I enjoyed reading this article from the blog Oh joy!

Good to be back love u all!

Bed up!

Hopefully soon I am going to decorate a 20m2 studio apartment in Amsterdam which is 215.28 sq feet.
When it is so tiny you have give everything a second thought. 
A bed would take up most of the space so I want to use a design bed that is called Bed Up.
Bed up, is a system that you mount at your ceiling, and a panel to your wall. You can lower it at  different heights and you can use the bed legs for stability, after usage you fold it up towards the ceiling.

Anyone moving into a studio apartment, I say get a Bed up!

House tour

Sometimes you come across a home and you say: Yeahhh I can totally live there, cause I like this and love that... Well Jenn´s home tour was one of those and had to share it from Adore home magazine.

I think I would start living in her closet and never come out!
