Merry & Bright

There's not a single blogger I know that takes their own pictures who isn't complaining about the light in these dark days before Christmas. It's not ideal, but well… let's hope Christmas will be merry & bright!

Our home is slowly getting dressed for Christmas, so I also wanted a new fresh poster on our kitchen door. My favorite neon Halloween poster and a Daniel Frost illustration that I got from YCN in London were replaced by this home-printed Zilverblauw poster. You can download it for free on Anki's blog as a sweet Christmas gift! (or buy a nice quality version in the Zilverblauw shop). Merci Anki & Casper!

The Philodendron bipinnatifidum plant that was in the guestroom until recently, is in good company of one of my palm trees. I grew it from a tiny seed and together with his brothers and sisters he's becoming bigger and bigger every year. Want to learn how to grow your own palm tree? I wrote a tutorial here.

    1. Thank you Mel! Christmas seems so long ago already, it has been a couple of eventful first weeks of 2015. I saw you had some well deserved days off too. Are you ready again to dive in?
