An apple a day…
You’ve probably noticed my absence here. I figured I needed some time off from my shop and from taking pictures for my beloved blog, to get inspiration and creativeness floating again. Shortly, I’m just celebrating my Summer break, like every normal person would do ;-)
So..what do you do when time is on your hand? Thrifting! Our kitchensink is now stacked with crockery that needs a good clean-up, our living room is filled with new (old) sweet little chairs and lampshades that really needed a loving owner that recognized the beauty underneath their scruffy look. Did I mention we live in a temporary home, that’s four times smaller than our former home? And that we stored almost 80 boxes with interior-stuff until we move to our permanent home? Even these facts can’t surpress my enthusiasm.
Furthermore, two creative projects are waiting for me while writing this. The apple on the floor will get a nice new color and I’m also planning to upholster a lampshade with a cross-stitched Swiss country side…yes that’s exactly as tacky as it sounds…loving it already! See you soon!
We all need time off now and then. Love your thrifted finds! I should come to Utrecht and thrift with you some time ;)
Geweldige vondst de appel koffie-pot!
Wat een feest zal dat zijn als je straks de dozen weer kunt openen, alsof je de spullen opnieuw krijgt.Fijne dag, Ingrid
(dat Zwitserse borduurwerkje klinkt spannend.., succes ermee, ben benieuwd:))
Mooie finds! Die kom ik nooit tegen in een 2ehands winkel :s
Ondanks dat je het rustig aandoet heb ik toch een stokje voor jou =)
Je kunt hier lezen wat dat precies is.
