In search for the white flower.


I found this little vase in the thriftshop some days ago,
on the outside it is darkbrown glazed, the inside is white
with soft brown lines dripping to the bottom, almost
like a glacier.
I was looking for a simple white daisy-like flower to
fit, but couln't find any.

From my herbarium:
Linaria vulgaris, common toadflax.


Melilotus albus, white sweet clover.
I dried this one in 2006, but its aroma's still intact,
for me the ultimate summer smell :-)
I started a flickr!

wardrobe clean up, part 5.


This one is for I, it was made of leftovers; cotton,
linen, angora and metal thread, i still have that metal
green, maybe for a little vest.
The polkadot blouse still fits me,
lucky me :-)

Meet Joe.






Tomorrow is the prize-ceremony; Joe - see image -
made a proposition to help me with the draw, so I can play it square.
This is what he suggested : I will do the preparations and make
little balls of paper from all the entries; then, Joe will jump at a depth
of 1 metre - that is extremely high converted to human standards!!
- so, he will jump at 1 metre, and the first ball he will hit is the winner.
I think that's fair, hope it will turn out well :-)
We'll see tomorrow.
Have a nice weekend everybody!
Oh, and the bottom image is polkadotted queen Beatrix of the Netherlands,
admiring Malevich's black square.

La vie en rose.











I took some pictures from my red formica kitchentable,
it always turns pink on photo, but who cares :),
and covered some kitchendrawers with old patterns,
got the idea from the lovely Galup card.
I will show more pics later from this beautiful book.

Giveaway.


Do you remember my wardrobe clean-up?
Well, i found this beret in my closet, i made one
for a friend some years ago and wanted a copy
for myself, problem is i never wear berets :-)
So, this beret was supposed to be mine, it is brand-new
and made of red, marine and white cotton.
Size medium, i guess.

So,
In case you planned a hold up for this summer,
and you would like to do it in style, sign up for this beret
by leaving a comment.
I will pick one of you on Saturday 6th of February.
Happy Weekend all of you!

Arthur's rhyme.







i'm working on my flickr, i made my first sets yesterday
evening, one is called 'While i'm sleeping', featuring
Arthur as the leading man; it is a set about dreams
and desires and the mystery of life, which can be really hard,
but wonderful at the same time.

This silly rhyme came popping up in my brain this morning,
when i was still in bed; I tried to imagine how a poem would
sound in case it was made by a doll, like Arthur.

to see the flickr slideshow click here.

sweet dreams :-)
( Arthur's rhyme is a blue one )
