It all started with a friend of mine saying that he had a vintage blue door that I might like. Of course, bring it on. So, a couple of hours later the door was delivered. But what to do with it ? Is it going to be a table or stay a door ? I don´t know yet. I was only sure that it needed some additional "vintage". So Ina helped me trying to cover it with roses for it´s…
I tried to gather the best ideas for a popup stall to bring to my friend Dani’s baby shower party. Maybe they inspire you too. For a boy, I decided to put it into an all blue/taupe/grey decorating scheme. As the name is not ‚fixed‘ yet, I could only use sewed „baby boy“ letters. One-pieces are cute way to decorate the stall. The problem was that I could not find any biker- or rocker style baby rompers on the german market. Thats why I tried to enrich some basic onesie’s with a bow and a tie, as well as braces und scarfs as add on. Since Dani is eating at least for two, the mom-to-be deserves a menu that is doubly delicious. I just love the tiny little yellow caterpillar which is downloading crushed oreos. I also filled decorated bottles with a mixture of cranberry and apple juice and a delightful splash of bubbly ginger ale. Dani also loves cinnamon rolls as well as cheesecake, so I just combined the two recipes into one. Voila! The first cinnamon roll cheesecake was to be tested on that day.
Yes, I know, VD is over (I am not even mentioning the name), but that should not stop you from having a sweet and hearty breakfast together with milk like those peanut butter cookies. Whilst I am at it, I also have some leftover table decorations pictures from the day I am no longer mentioning. Moving on to spring then, not such a bad idea anyway.
As we had an entire "no snow"-Christmas, I wanted to take a "Happy New Year" picture out in the sun. However, it was a little colder than I thought, so I quickly added a Pumpkin Spice latte to the scenario for a proper last day of Dec feeling. Happy New Year.
I have have spent the last two saturdays at the sewing machine. The idea was to make christmas stockings for a couple of friend's pets. I am convinced that every cute furry creature needs it`s own stocking where all the christmas gifts are stored. The challenge was, that the stocking matches the style of the owner. So I made a glamorous 'Flamant' colored stocking for Anna's not yet existing but highly anticipated puppy 'Caramel'. Gropius and Jack, two cats, got…
You guessed it already, but the chandeliers in the living room can not stay undecortated. The fake horn one has a story of it´s own as it´s weight is above 40kg and various 'experts' refused to put it up there until our lovely neighbor saved the day. However, my husband still does not 'risk' to put valuable electronic devices below it. Well it looks nice and someone has written a very long wishlist for Santa and put it up there.
I have already set up the Christmas decoration in our windows a couple of weeks back but my hubby refused to take pictures. He said that it does not make sense as long as there is no snow in the background. I can understand that. But once we had the first snow he told me that too much white makes it hard to get good pictures. Well, what can I say, after a little convincing he took them after all…
