DIY bling!
Sometimes you’ll manage to shoot a picture
and it feels like BOOM!
Just one, and just on our Instagram…
Easy… All we needed was a
waterglass, stickers, a marble piece and the sun.
This very regular waterglass, became instantly cool,
with the cool stickerset of Mausbird.
To pimp your glassware, plates & cups,
or other small wannahaves.
And with all the rain in our country (boohoo!),
we’re looking forward to a
‘hangout-weekend-inside’ and
be creative DIY!-ers.
Have a lovely weekend y’all!
XOXO

#tbt coolness no.4
Two astronauts made a spacewalk yesterday,
very very impressive…!!!
Well… you have to know…
45 years ago, two boys,
were standing with their feet on the ground,
being… amazingly cool! ; )
Boys in a Glasgow back court show off their Christmas presents,
which include astronaut suits and Space Hoppers.

#TBT coolness no.1
In these days, with an OVERLOAD of IMAGES,
we feel like we would love to share
the ‘old skool coolness’.
The ones that are still contemporary
and could be an image of all times.
With Stripes forever! And great cool hair!
As a reminder of the good things,
that will stay anyway.
Have yourself a very cool day!

Mr. Toucan is dancing!
Every collection, French designer Delphine Miquel,
SURPRISES US BIG TIME!!!
Yes, we fell in love again!
Her amazingly beautiful brand ANATOLOGY
is graphically very contemporary,
fun (don’t take it all too serious) and still very very sophisticated.
We sell her brand too, so we know the way it’s been produced.
The way the fabrics feel…
So beautifully. A great sense for detail.
The colors in her new collection TOUCAN
are stunning again!
Blue (with a touch of black), Terracotta, softpink,
red, green ( the cool versions)
and the wonderful black.
She also added new items,
like cushions, cases, kid duvet covers
and the most surprising
a big wanna-have LAMP.
So stay tuned to make sure
you will get one of these items
because we know for sure this will be
sold out in a sec.
ENJOY!

Morninggggg… Class has started!
Hi, hello there…, good morningggg…
Class has started with these NEW cool alphabet-cards
from Rotterdam-based fun, graphically very strong
and just amazingly talented brand, Mausbird.
The whole year, stylish designer and owner, Mietze,
is coming up with new idea’s.
You know she’s doing the opposite
of what everybody is doing…
The first time I’ve met her,
she already had designed
the triangle ‘graphics’ coolness.
She’s very inspiring!
So that’s why she was the first to visit
at the HTNK-area at the Kleine Fabriek last monday…
You know you will go home, happily inspired.
And the good thing is,
we will go and work together
on something really nice…
So follow us, to make sure won’t miss a thing! ; )
HAVE A LOVELY START OF THE WEEK!

‘crab’ the coolest!
Last monday I’ve just paid a very quick visit
to the Dutch Kidsfair Kleine Fabriek.
Very glad I did! ; )
So with very little time,
I immediately “ran” to ‘the center-court’.
The HTNK-area, where you’re sure
you can meet all the cool
small independent brands.
“The inspiring-area” ; )
Well, besides lovely other brands,
which I will write about asap,
we found out about Swearhouse.
The brand of a lovely,
Rotterdam based, designers-couple
with beautiful (eco) baby-gear.
Very graphic, but in a sophisticated way.
Very contemporary cool. Lovely colors!
Beautiful (eco) fabrics.
And we immediately fell in love with
THE COOLEST BABY-GIFT EVERRRRRR…
called “krabwantjes” (so funny in Dutch).
Translated in English to “scratch mitts”,
which basically says what it is.
But if you speak Dutch, you know it’s pretty brilliant!
Next month we will sell this great design too,
in our own shop!
And if you’re in a big hurry,
you can go and visit the designer’s shop…,
to get you a pair.
And make sure you get the coolest gift
for friends and family with a newborn
or toddler.
HAPPY WEEKEND!

Fashion Revolution!
Today, the Amsterdam Fashionweek
“Zalando presents 10 days downtown”
will kick off…
Which will make our city a bit more frivolous
and incredibly stylish, as fashionweek always does.
Our friends from CP113,
a cool conceptstore in the center/east-side of Amsterdam
were asked, for the second year in a row,
to organize a bazaar with concept-stores.
Fashionweek NL, DAY 2.
A POP UP edition for one day at the cool Volkshotel.
Well they’ve asked us to join in. Yahoooo!!!
Tomorrow, Saturday January 17th,
between 12:00-19:00 hrs,
we will join the grown-up fashionworld…
With our collection of cool brands and must-haves.
Unfortunately we don’t think the clothes will fit them… haha…
But hopefully they get incredibly inspired!
So, stylish parents…, you can bring your kids,
well… that’s our idea ; )
Enough space, although we’re not sure if the
rest of the contributors are happy with a playground ; )
There will be so much beautiful stylish wannahaves to look at.
So we assume you would loooovvveeee to have
a ‘me, myself and I’-moment, hahahaha!
Anyway… you’re all, very much, invited and veryyyy welcome!
Love to see you and bring your friends… ; )

Marble-ism
Just a little note to let you know
these cool, marble, black & white balloons
are finally available in our store!
They will last forever…
as long as you fill them with air,
and keep them away from pins and a cactus.
Your party will look
as it never did before!
And you can enjoy it for a long long time,
only if you make sure no-one will take it home ; )
