Green is the magic color!
Green as in plants…
Green as in extra oxygen in da house…
Green as in color…
Green as in nature inside…
Green as in teaching our kids…
Green as in funny…
Green as in very inspiring…
Green as in just being incredibly cool!

Crazy hippos
This image made us laugh so loud,
so hopefully, you will too!
It happen to be a sewing pattern for DIY hippos.
Vintage 80’s on Etsy.
First we thought it was a contemporary ‘advertising-ish-thing’
in a newspaper or something.
So funny that we look
and immediately come to conclusions
while after having a better look…
there’s this very cool crazy surprise!
We love that!
It’s just, what we call it, old skool cool!
Very inspiring styles from the past.
Have a great HAPPY DAY!

Mountains and Bears
MOUNTAIN pillows. MOUNTAIN bedsheets,
MOUNTAIN drawings,
MOUNTAIN poufs (Mount Everest, Kilimanjaro, Fuji),
MOUNTAIN graphics,
MOUNTAIN long sleeved tee
BEARS on tiles,
very well illustrated BEARS,
BEAR cushions
and TREES wallpaper.
A lot of designers, creatives, illustrators and artists are inspired by
mountains, bears and trees…
Back to nature…
They’re everywhere, all worked out very well.
Sometimes it’s almost impressive art.
At least very contemporary.
So we are very much inspired too…

Old skool cool
This summer we’ve spent 8 days in Copenhagen-area and Hillerød, Denmark.
Also enjoying one touristic tour. The beautiful, fairytale kind of Castle,
Frederiksborg Slot in Hillerød.
The summer residence of the Danish Royal Family.
Anyway, besides all the beautiful paintings, rooms and ‘walking arounds’,
we always end up in the shop.
There we found this cool DIY.
It felt so contemporary with all the beautiful colors.
One with cool green/white harlequin pants…
we love that one! … and the fish…
It appeared to be from 1918
Drawn and created by Danish Architect Hans H. Koch.
It was used as ornaments in Christmas trees.
Now we own it ,
we don’t want to cut it…
To be honest… ,
we want to FRAME it.
because it’s old skool art!

Paparazzi crew!
As photographers we love camera’s, obviously!
Leica M8 is my sweetheart,
but how cool are the versions for kids?
This Vintage Fisher Price flew in from the States.
Founded by my sweet friend on E-bay…
given to us for Christmas. Personally delivered!
A kid with a camera…, very adorable and cool!
We’ve made a board on Pinterest with some inspiration.
Pssssstttttt… because we’re ‘visual’ not happy with the new look
of this pinning-master, we don’t do a preview anymore…,
so just check the ‘camera crew’– link.
It will make you smile, promise!
ENJOY SNAPSHOTS DAYS!

Dad the coolest!
UK’s Mini-eco made this really cool Father’s Day Wrap Paper and Card.
Very contemporary!
How great to just share this with us.
For people, like me, who will think of Father’s Day on a really short notice…
it’s the best invention…
And it’s a great Wrap Paper for dad’s birthday too!
To add some personal style,
you can be creative with colorful (neon) markers
or draw some funny ‘dad-creations’ on it…
Anyway… we love it big time!
for being so inspiring and for sharing!
Chillin’ at the movies!
Going to the cinema with your baby… to see your favourite movies…
how wonderful, exciting and
yes it’s pretty relaxed!
(“mum hurry, before we get to late” )
Such a wonderful concept this is… originally from Scandinavia
founded fifteen years ago… and now also in a Dutch version.
A cinema especially prepared for parents with babies (up till about one year old)…
They dim the lights and lower the volume (heaven!)
Bottle warming and nappy changing facilities
and buggy parking are available at every screening.
You don’t have to arrange a baby-sitter to see a great movie
but just go together with the little one.
Enjoy the movie, relax and even let go off some maternity or tiredness tears…
So it feels like home, but you’re going out… cool!
The contemporary illustrations for Cinemum caught our eye!
They’re so cool, funny and beautiful… and we love them
just being black and white with a red detail.
They’re created by dutch-based artist Katherina Plevkova.
Check out her brand IAMKAT!
Very creative and cool!
Check out the Cinemum website in Dutch or English for all the details.
Similar offers like this are also in Australia, Canada, Brazil and Great-Britain.
They’re called baby-friendly cinemas.
ENJOY CHILLIN’ OUT!
