Two rooms in the new home were “high priority” on the wall-color list: the kitchen, which you may have seen yesterday, as well as our bedroom. Most of the important rooms, like the kitchen, home office and living room are on the sunny side of the house, and are bright and get a lot of Read article…
Once the backsplash in our kitchen looked like 2021 again (see here), the pale pink-ish color had to go. While I love pink, this shade was just too pale, too grey, too pink, we were ready for something with a bit of punch. I ordered different pink samples from Blime paint, a young French brand Read article…
Maybe you believe that I was charmed by this villa because of the pink kitchen walls? Well, it may come as a surprise: but no 🙂 The old pink walls have a strange undertone and look old fashioned, so we’ll paint them soon. Worse than the wall colors was the kitchen backsplash with dark red Read article…
During Maison & Objet last month, French design company iBride invited me to come and check out their new Morphose cups in collaboration with designer Constance Guisset. They knew how much I enjoyed playing with their Babel series of nomadic bento boxes, bowls & plates. Somehow I expected that the new coffee cups would be Read article…
One of the reasons I don’t show our entire living room very often, is that our large dining table and bar cart were in bad shape. Well, their structure and quality are great, but the surface of the table top was dented and stained and the veneer was damaged on the edges. We bought the Read article…

Once I found out talented duo heju was working on the new Klin d'oeil boutique & gallery in Paris, I couldn't wait to see it. I really love what they did at the courtyard of Les Petits Hauts (I blogged about that here), and the sneak peeks on Instagram with this fabulous Sudbury Yellow by Read article…
One light string in our Euphorbia was our only Christmas decoration at home up until now. But I spotted "some" mistletoe in the tree in front of our home. For the first time there were berries in there and I couldn't resist to get a few. It took an hour to get the entire bush Read article…
I can't remember the last festival I went to: the smell of beer, muddy grass fields and big crowds are not my idea of having a good time. Lucky me: the Snor Festival that I attended this weekend was different. Yes, there was beer (but also yummy smoothies!), a little bit of mud and lots Read article…
It probably shows that I'm craving a little summer holiday, right? This weekend I worked on a fun little challenge: pimp a deckchair with Out There Interiors! Our mission was to do "something" with the chair and my first idea was to turn it into a green seating. Of course I don't want anyone to Read article…
