invitation to opening

Invitation to the opening of our shop at Werkpost. You can hardly read it. It says:

WERKPOSTWINKEL, Nieuwe Ebbingestraat 50-52, Groningen.

My colleques: Marjolein Perin, Siepsfabriek, Angelique Ypma, Studio Eigen.

That day it's also Open Design Day in Groningen.

Het paleis (the Palace)

I had a preview in het Paleis (the Palace) in Groningen where 10 (then unfinished) hotel bedrooms are realised and designed by 10 different designers, amongst whom friends Jack Brandsma & Francoise de Thouars of "Een paar ontwerpers".

our shop to be

still no pictures

Since Im 'forced' into this iMac machine by my husband - after many sighs and curses on my old pc- I still don't know how to photoshop my pictures to the right uploadable (blog) size. I'm still (feeling) too busy to find the time for a photoshop and iMac class...

But the Kindergarten project is finally finished! Wonderfull, colourfull hanging bags as some sort of pigeonholes for posts. (See Siepsfabriek for a picture). Many thanks to Peter with the drill.
The last 2 weeks I went to work-that is really a new thing to say...going to work - since I have been working at home the last couple of years. Sometimes I cycle back and forth a 45 minutes tour, still nice summer weather !

great news!

Starting a new workspace in Groningen, so I just moved out of my house. In a month or so I hope that we have started the shop there as well! Sorry for not writing for a long time...have been busy, you can image.
Pictures later!

open house tour

I proudly present that I'm mentioned in B kids and Bloesem, the blogs of Irene Hoofs in Kuala Lumpur. Pictures made by Simone. Look here, she is also very proud!

And I'm off for a vacation, but I have great news when I get home! Something about a shop and new stuff, and people and work and space and such...

7.30

A morning in the garden...enjoy time.

cooking

I had my last choir singing rehearsal last night. We went for a goodbye drink afterwards and missed the bus back home. So I called my husband if he could come and pick me up. He did, reluctantly though. As atonement he made me promiss that I do some cooking myself during the vacation (after reading my blog yesterday)....darling.

summer

Home made camping gear....with plastic on top for the husband who stirs in the pan too eagerly...

It's almost summer vacation!
