I love „Deko“ und ich dekoriere alles was rumsteht, vor allem unser Haus, hier ist das alles zusammengefasst
It was raining in the morning and it was cold outside - only like 8°C, Brrr.....the only thing to make the day shiny and bright for me was to walk in the kitchen and preheat the oven. let's make some pretty pies! There was the cherry pie(which is always great), the chocolate pie (a life safer and yes, it is rich, but also in taste) and of course the pumpkin pie (I saw the ripe pumpkin fields since weeks). I…
... and so does Silvia and Guido. When Silvia asked me, if I would be able to pop up our tearoom in her garden, a new idea was born and a couple of days later somewhere in Düsseldorf an afternoon tea party was held. I went there with a car fully packed with cakes and cookies, plates, cutlery, garden tables and chairs with cushions and so on...I wanted that all guests feel welcome and at home at the lovely surrounding…
I mean, is it even possible to turn a boring blue wood room into something cute and nice? Well, first there was the window and the door...with the ornamental wood border, which I found at the fleamarket, this was a start for sure. But even more worse was the plain side of the storage room. To give it some kind of a nicer character it took me some frames, a painting, hooks, metal signs and a lot of logs and…
Well, I don't really know. But at least my husband thinks it is as these things suddenly appear at our house. However what I know for sure is, that this will not be my last project regarding that matter. It all started when I found this great PomPom maker in a store in Cologne (thanks to Marius). After finishing all my inventory stock in wool during the first evening, I was overwhelmed when I hung up the pompoms at the…
We just did it! it is 7pm, the dish washer is running, the garden furniture is at the correct place again and we can sit relaxed in our deckchairs and thinking about a great day. We both agreed: We really enjoyed our first Pop-Up Tearoom and do believe that our guests liked it as well. We got to know some new nice people, everybody talked, it was a very relaxed atmosphere, you just had a nice sunday afternoon with great…
Next sunday we are hosting an Afternoon Tea at our house. I managed to create the menu, which will be placed under each plate. The challenge was, that the colours of the printed menu needed to match with napkins, mugs, plates, etc. If you love sweet treats and are wondering about the so-called "Vintage Summer Cake" I am thinking about a triple-decker sponge cake with berries, fruit syrup and cream - something you can enjoy all summer. We are still…
May I introduce you to: the sweetest, prettyiest, wonderfullyiest and nicest garden chair, you have ever seen? Since my friend anna told me about this chair, which she has seen in May in the Flamant store in Knokke/ Belgium, I was sneaking around it week after week. Luckily for me: the weather in Germany was so unpleasent and bad, that I never really needed to buy it. The woman can wait, yes! and last thursday the day finally came: sale…
