vitamins

it's not really cold yet but all of a sudden many people have the flue etc...

so take your vitamins!

many thanks to Mireya for her picture of her ceramic fruit bowls that pack a punch :-) it's good for the eyes too.

colours & shapes

the subtle colours of above vases don't really show, there's just not enough day light for pictures these days... bah, much better to have a look in the shop anyway!

below some japan ware (you could never tell there's 40% wood in the material)that is on sale in the shop.

more ceramics

yesterday white, today colour.

cosy autumn days

who could tell that the two ceramic pieces are not of the same manufacturer? they look like brother and sister to me.

white ceramics look beautifully pristine on wood.

if you give up coffee

too cute an idea not to show you...

i salute the person behind this idea and picture!

though i must admit: the picture alone is enough to make me go fetch a coffee, i definitely need one NOW. after the captivating deed of giving notice to 2 assurance policies, telephone, webhosting, paysystem, domain name etc, i deserve one.

this is going to be a short work week:

please note that the store will be closed this friday and saturday october 3&4.
 

shelf life

 












many thanks to kathrin who sent me these pretty pictures!

if you ask me it looks very cosy in kathrin's cupboard...

soft light

a classic of the shop... candlecup for now available in clear blue and green. soon again in white too.

a nice surprise

just when i thought this post was about scarves for headbands (part 2) it turns out it's about luxenburgerli and flowers!

so there was a candy colour invasion in the shop... the lush bouquet of flowers went straight into this large glass vase (for more pictures of the vase cf post entry 10.4. and 2.4.) and the luxenburgerli had to submit to a (very) short photo session before reaching their final destination/destiny.

but they looked fine on the coloured plates, didn't they? 

many thanks to Rita and Gina! 

tomorrow i'll be working till 4pm, then i'll jump onto the tgv to paris for a couple of days to attend shows and for the rest of the week i'll be off work... have a good time and see you back on july 15th!

lily

big flower, small vases...

tube vase

new colour

so this is the new mint colour. the tube vase in yellow is also new.

i like.

give me the light

this past weekend Mireya sent me this picture with the yellow vase in her home; she just beautifully caught the oblique light beams reflected from the picture frame!

the vase, as some of you will know, is a true classic of the shop, coming in a variety of sizes and colours. last week i received a batch with the brand new mint colour, i think it's absolutely beautiful... see for yourself in tomorrow's post!

new colours

today i received a ceramics delivery from denmark, each and every piece intact, thank you very much!

these candlecups now come in 8 colours: yellow, orange, pink, skyblue, mint, petrol (not shown), light blue and white/white as shown in the first picture.

until the sun is back: a candle a day keeps the gloom away.

crowd of vases

the problem is: we want more than one... and here we can see why.

new vase

manuela's sideboard

this entire week i have been a woman on a mission: deliver tax declaration... uffff, i'm nearly done.

so i'm thankful manuela sent me this picture i can post today :-)

last week manuela came to collect her ordered combination of the stacked system and here you can see the result! 

i really like the mix of ash wood and white elements and the way she stacked it. i'm taking notes! detail: if you look more closely you can see that the backboard of the lower element on the left is pink.

have a lovely weekend!

all the pretty colours

where to start, where to stop? one of each please...

so this time it's official: springtime is here! have a lovely weekend everyone :-)
