That was a nice green party right?! I loved the peek into so many bloggers homes and to see that many are enthusiastically growing plants, veggies & herbs at home. I still have a few photos from Milan that I'd like to show you today. Somehow the work of Jaime Hayon was everywhere in Milan: Read article…

Urban Jungle Bloggers #8
For the eight time today, Igor and I are throwing a little green party. Or at least that's what our monthy Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge feels like to me. Afters lots of eggs, creative stylings and spring freshness in March, today is all about green window sills and balconies. Actually we don't have a single Read article…
Green Balconies in Milan
When strolling down the streets of Milan, I was pleasantly surprised by the omnipresence of greens! Of course the upcoming Urban Jungle Bloggers topic was in the back of my head: balconies & window sills, so I guess I was a little obsessed… So if you're looking for some last minute inspiration, look no further Read article…
Happy Easter!
Happy Easter! I wish you all a sunny and cosy Sunday with your loved ones. I know I'll be eating an extra egg today (without cactus of course) 😉
Yummy lunch at Al Boeuc

Italian Wisteria

I haven't seen any wisteria here in the Oise yet, but in Italy they were blooming on every street corner. And because unfortunately I cannot include perfumes on my blog (yet!), I tried to capture the purple flowering plant Read article…
Patterns in Milan
My five days in Italy with friends were bright and colorful, just like the tiles above at Temakinho in Milan. We walked for hours along several lakes, enjoyed the abundant sunshine, ate the most delicious Italian food, had many interesting conversations, laughed a lot, smelled the blooming wisteria on every street corner, got our design Read article…
Ciao from the Concrete Jungle
A quick hello from this concrete jungle called Milan! As you can see the sun is shining bright and the many many plants on the Milanese balconies seem to love it. There's so much inspiration everywhere for the upcoming topic of Urban Jungle Bloggers later this month! By the way, Louise from 30smagazine did an Read article…
White blossom
Yesterday when working behind my desk I sneaked out to take these pictures of the blossom in our garden. From what I can see in my blog archives, the tree is blossoming 3 weeks earlier than previous years (see here). I can't wait for the petals to fall, because I love me some blossom snow Read article…
