Earlier I explained why we went from a gas stove to a wood stove again; it has everything to do with our move. While a gas stove is very practical in itself, I am now very happy with our wood stove, especially because we use it regularly and it is just a bit more cozy than before. Now that we have l
I like space around me. In that respect, we are of course well placed here in our new house with a ground floor area of 180 m² on a plot of land of almost 3000 m². I am absolutely not complaining 😉 . But apart from that, I am always looking for spatial solutions at home. That was also a challenge
With the renovation that is imminent, we again have a number of choices that we can make. As I wrote in the blog about pimping our kitchen, we are about to start a renovation again.

Finally I also have some wooden wall decoration hanging in my house, and I am so happy with it! Youve definitely seen them before.

By the way, Im all for it, its a lot of fun to do and with the Cricut its also very easy to come up with all kinds of variations that you can print on your pillow. I have already ma

Do you like soaking for hours on end, or do you prefer a quick shower? Whatever type you are, we all spend a fair amount of time in the bathroom. One may be a little more than the other… And then its nice if your bathroom is fully equipped. Even if you dont have more than a few square meters. Oh, an
A while ago I wrote an inspiration blog (more for myself than for you) about how to make a lamp yourself. With a view to our move, I wanted to get ideas to pimp an old lamp and of course lamps in general, because there is some room in our new house for new light! Heres some inspiration for you when
I have loved velvet, ever since I was a kid. We used to have such a fantastic light pink velvet sofa with those twisted fringes at the bottom. It was comfortable and felt even better! That sofa has always stayed with me and now that the velvet trend is picking up again, I couldnt resist implementing
My friends think Im crazy, but Ive had my eye on it for quite a few months, this monkey lamp from Seletti. Not only our friends by the way, but also Frank had to get used to my Monkey, haha. But now it hangs proudly in our living room and the whole family comes to appreciate it more and more. And I
Saving energy has always been a thing for us. We try to be aware of it, but it is an art to involve the children in this as well.

We had just about finished Lottes room last year, put in a new cupboard, made a desk ourselves and, last but not least, placed a large dormer window… we moved. So we can start all over again decorating a girls bedroom. Of course we already have some furnishing, but the bedroom itself can be taken ca
Working from home is music to many peoples ears. And if it suits your work and your lifestyle, then it is really recommended if you ask me. I once started behind a hidden desk, but my home office has grown a lot since then. Just like the company! In this blog I go into more detail about what you sho
