Warsaw (1)

5 days in Warsaw.

A surprising city. Neons, graphic. 35°C. High modern towers.
Strange money, a language that sounds really exotic to me.

For now, i leave you with an overdose of pictures.
Details of the city and my holiday.

Soon more about Warsaw, and my favorite addresses.

Green.

Summer. Time for some green touches. My plants are growing very well, I gave some of them a new place in our large greenhouse in the garden. They are growing so fast.

I lately discovered that a pilea-plant also is called a “friendship plant”. I think that’s a lovely name, because it’s so true. I love taking care of the baby pilea’s, love to see them grow. At the moment I have 10 new baby pilea plants in my greenhouse. I’m waiting till they are big enough to give them to some of my friends. I love the idea of giving the plants to someone else, knowing they will have a new life, in a new home, with new people.

I would like to show you some pictures of my favorite plants. My pilea from Copenhagen, who’s now 1 year with me in my atelier. A large monstera. And a plant which I call ‘bollekes plant’. And a succulent that I adopted during ‘pots & paper’.

Mixmixmix (4)

A mix of the last few weeks, filled with bike riding, flowers, clouds, good food, weaving, pink drinks, lovely people, new plans, driving the car for the first time in my life, … . And a nice exposition, called “Ménage à trois”, where I showed my work.

Embroidery work nr° 2

The second embroidery work is finished.

After making the first one, I’m completely in love with doing embroidery. Both works, the first one, and this, are inspired on the twill-weavings (which I love !). I’m now making a third work, that will fit in the same little collection.

Have a nice weekend.
