hairclips

at muji they sell hair clips in beautiful matt colors. jilles had a party from a girl in his class, so to brighten up the gift i made these clips.

roses

love how this bag turned out. unfortunately it was an order, otherwise I would have kept this one. I was happy to hear that the gift receiver was very happy with it.

spoiled

it's such a joy to receive a postal package from vlijtig! this time she really spoiled me for my birthday! I loved it, thanks kristel!
oh...and i just love the ribbon she made!

hectic time of year

what a hectic time of year this is. the last week of school. so the time of saying goodbye is here again. this is a part of expat life which i think i can't get used to. some close friends are moving this summer. one of them did a big order for bags to give to other friends for saying goodbye. I loved doing this order with her. we picked the embroideries and the linings together. I can only show one at this point, since she hasn't given the rest yet.
PS.........can you believe I took this picture at eleven in the evening?? it's stays light now for such a long time and the sun comes up so early in the morning. the birds are already singing at 3 am?!!?? another thing I am not sure if I will be able to get used to...
