Things.























The potholders arrived at MR KITLY shop!
... and also some cushions and mobiles.
They're all on my flickr.

Ceramic teapot made by Shino Takeda, love!
MR KITLY news.

The ceramic blue 'thing' in the first pic comes from the thriftstore,
it has cost me 0,20€, but I don't know what it is;
I can vaguely distinguish an upright and a pendulous blue ear :^)

reminds me of
Donnie Darko, one of my favourite movies!

Sweet dreams :^)

Sunday.

























The day started gray and gloomy, but wow!, what a beautiful
spring day it was this afternoon! 
(bought myself a black teapot yesterday :^)

A mixed lot, 14







I have't had the chance to take any pictures this last few days, so this
mixed lot is again an easy solution :^)


Summer mobile
Eppo in the woods (taken by Willy)
A drawing I got from an unknown little boy; the figure in the top corner
right under the sun is me;
the boy said he made me a rocket, so I could fly.
I didn't notice before that the flower in my hand is an exact copy of the sun :)
Easter egg.

Goodnight & Sweet Dreams!

A day in April.







Today was just another typical April day, cloudy with occasional
sun or a downpoor, so I gardened between the showers,
with a big mess as a result.
But,
I like gardening, especially when it gets very dirty,
that's part of the fun :^)



Hope you had a nice Sunday too :^)

Babyboom#5.



Babyboom#5 at ATELIER SOLARSHOP started today;

the shop will be open on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday
from 11:00 to 18:30 this and the next week.
There will be potholders for sale :^)

On the photo: My eight year old sister blows out the candles of
her birthday cake and the other one is my sister and I on the day
of her first communion.
On the birthday picture you can see on the top right a monstera, and
behind the sofa a sansevieria; I don't know how it went in the rest
of the world, but in the sixties every Flemish livingroom was adorned
with a couple of mother-in-law's tongue and one Monstera.
I remember those plants very well, and also the bamboo snake!
I think the plant in the left corner is a Fatsia Japonica.
The two blond cupids are my younger brothers :^)

By the way, I'm looking quite a while for a Monstera, a small one
that is not tied to a stick; every tip is welcome!




Have a nice evening!

My Rhipsalis.









I went plant shopping with Mieke the other day;
never thought I would ever buy a Rhipsalis; it's not really
a favourite of mine and sometimes I think they can be depressingly
ugly; but I immediately fell in love with this specimen, maybe because
there's something very illogical about this plant;
he's even hairy, almost like spider legs, although he's not part of the
cactus family. Weird.

I also bought a sedum, but it ended between my bicycle wheel during
our ride; you can see the result on picture two :^)
What about my other sedum, I think he too is not happy ,
its leafs are discolored and make me think a bit of chilblains,
they were fresh green last year.
He may need more attention :)



But the weather was fantastic last week!

Good Night & Sweet Dreams.

About eggs.





Don't need to say I've eaten a lot of eggs today, mostly chocolate
of course :)
the eggs in the picture are made by a Swiss friend of my sister;
it's an Easter tradition in Switzerland to cook eggs in a mixture
of onion peel and other herbs and roots, almost too pretty to eat!

I've found a tutorial here.
