A sparkling 2015

Lets end the year a little bit crazy on the beach (my fav place to be) with a big bonfire.

See you all in 2015

Fleurie

My fav restaurant and lunchroom of 2014 is Fleurie in Bloemendaal. I feel so at home there and the food is amazing, I never know what to pick. We had lunch and dinner in so many different places in 2014 but Fleurie is my winner.

Wishing you all an sparkling and healthy 2015. May all your dreams come true.

Kay and family

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

We started to have a little new tradition... going out for a long December walk.

Tell you it was cold today and the coffee place was on a winter break but still the light was amazing.

Wishing you all a merry little Christmas with your family and friends.

see you,
Kay and family


PS: love this song: All I want for Christmas is you.

Christmas is back in Amsterdam

I was in town today looking for Christmas gifts for Nila.It was one of those grey and rainy days, we have a lot of them in the moment. But even on rainy days Amsterdam has a lot to offer...

So tell me have you done all your Christmas shopping yet? I send all my snail mail. Just have to write some cards. So there is time to enjoy some Christmas party's.

see you,
Kay


PS: Totally love the music from Jaqueline du Pre.

Celinda Designs

Last Friday there was a Mini Market in Elle Aime. I had a chance to meet Celinda Versluis. I always liked her Belle Dames on vintage china... they make wonderful gifts.

It was also the first time that I visited the shop in Rotterdam and I must say I love it. Very much my cup of tea, sure we will visit again soon.

See you soon,
Kay

PS: love the work of Floor Rieder

Lots of quiet early candlelit mornings.
Sleeping cats and strong coffee.
Busy making some Christmas gifts.
Wishing you all a cozy week.
Merry & Slow.

Holiday crafting

We are stilll busy getting the house in to the Christmas spirit and finally started with some holiday crafting. Mister Kay is really good in it.

In the Danish magazine  BoligLiv was a nice idea how to recycle your empty tea lights. Have fun.

See you,
Kay

PS: Got myself a nice piece of vinyl today: Jett Rebel.

Oh Tannenbaum

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
How lovely are your branches!
In beauty green will always grow
Through summer sun and winter snow.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How lovely are your branches!

We are on the way to search for the perfect Christmas tree.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend,

Kay

Sinterklaas

The 5th of December it's Sinterklaas.

At the moment I feel like a big kid waiting for the rest of the family to come home. So we can have a nice Sinterklaas dinner.

Wishing you all a wonderful evening.

see you,
Kay and family


PS: wonderful little book  The Fir Tree

December..December

December... let it snow, let it snow.

Really enjoying the cold December days. My cats are inside a lot and they keep me company.

Busy with getting some of my Christmas parcels ready. I should really bring them to the post office this weekend.

Hope you are all well,
Kay

Amsterdam Light Festival 

 

pine cones and glitter

The house is very much like a portrait, the thought of arrangement, the curves and straight lines. It gives an indication of the character at the heart of it.

Spent all afternoon pottering around the house. Very much in an early Christmas mood this year. Feel like lots of fairy lights, pine cones and some glitter. I will visit the Christmas market this weekend and then I start, lol.

see you,
Kay


PS: Kubus by Lassen would be a really nice Christmas gift.
