Flea market



Today we went to our local flea market (it was terribly cold, despite of the sunshine) and we found some lovely stuff! A gorgeous LP-player for only 12 euros! And yes, it still works! I also found a cute children's book, not something I really needed, but I thought it was pretty...so... Of course we needed some LP records for our new player (not totally true, we already do have a bunch of records, but sssh) so I bought 2 Disney records, with some fine art-work. Finally I found some lovely plates, the salesman couldn't quite believe that I liked them...but I do! Was thinking of trying to make some jewelry out of them. We'll see how that turns out...

Short Telly Tip!

“Grow your own drugs” (season two):
Great show about home remedies that work (love the cold sores remedy of season one).

Where and when?
BBC2, Tuesdays at 21:00 (GMT+1)

“The Delicious Miss Dahl”:
A cooking program that just relaxes me. Her soothing voice, yummi (looking) dishes and great music.

Invitation

Here's the invitation I made for my nephew. Kinda proud of it... Send them to the whole family; wondering what their reactions will be.


Fabric

Last week, I found these fabrics in Hasselt (Stoffenspektakel)


Wondering what they will become... probably a dress... definitely the dotted one.


This is a scarf I once bought on sale, I loved the print. But it's just been laying in my closet ever since...
Going to try to make a skirt out of it... I'll definitely post the result.

Newest purchases!

Here's a list of some lovely stuff we bought recently.


I bought this brooch in a wonderful shop called "Achter de maan" in Ghent. The design is by Chloé Rémiat, on lamarelle.net you can find more nice stuff designed by her, and a lot of other designers.






These earrings, brooch and sweater came from Zoot. Such a pretty shop in the centre of Ghent.








These sweet little things we bought in Huiszwaluw. A shop we recently discovered and which went immediately to the top of our list. It's impossible to walk out without having bought something.
The postcards are from Papierpiraten and Darling Clementine, the sketchbook is from Belle & Boo. You can also find them on 1973.
