Last time I saw Maria, in October 2014, she was still working underground. Literally, since her workshop was then in a basement (a cosy one, nothing but good things about the basement). Meanwhile things have changed. You could say that two babies have been born: one is mine (Oscar), the other Maria’s new, overground workshop which Read more…
There’s so much to see and do at An Apple A Day. Play, learn, create, eat, drink, buy – everything is possible in this lovely kids concept store in my hometown Utrecht.

Last weekend we were in Berlin (no kids involved) (thank you parents-in-law)!

New in town and there for just six months, is Felix &Foam, a temporary cooperation between Foam, Frame and restaurant Foyer located in the monumental building Felix Meritis in Amsterdam. You can find exhibitions, films, events, cool shops and a restaurant there. So when in Amsterdam, make sure to check it out!
Love these First of August bags (especially the black one at the front in the second picture – yeah, black is more and more finding its way to me :) ) @ SPRMRKT, Amsterdam
