Happy holiday.... just had to share

Can I just quietly burst here.... I love this conversion of an attic room. They have created such a light sunny fun playroom. With storage baskets to hide the toys after playing and comfortable seating to enjoy reading or some gaming. I would personally add a little rock climbing wall to one of the sides. With so many mattresses in the room you would have a soft landing.

Needless to say I get so inspired I start to dream about creating this space for myself. I have even looked at what pillows I would use. Here is a first variety that I have quickly chosen from the VT Wonen online shop.




The converted attic room is part of a Westhampton Beach playhouse that has been converted by Change & Co and boy did they do a good job. I always love a good before and after but this one will make me look differently at every home I visit in the future. They have made a dull average house into a bright fun welcoming home. Not all choices made are my liking but overall the entire house looks very well decorated with color links and pattern links from room to room.

Now I am back to my deadlines for my freelance work and than some holiday fun at the coast.

Happy Friday.... I'm not lazy (just in holiday mode)

If they had this on a shirt I would wear it this holiday....

I haven't forgotten about you guys but as I've recently taken on a new job much of my time and energy goes into that. You know how it is the start up takes a lot of research and in that time... Plus I am not sure all my readers are into kids fashion... I get heavily distracted and slightly frustrated as I see all these fun clothes that I would love to get in my own size. 

All sweaters are on sale in the MANGO girls collection.

Corals and mustard colours at Sissy Boy girls collection. 

In addition I am happily running after my two fun crazy kids who are enjoying their holidays. I hope you also enjoy the summer. Let's do a sun dance together hoping the clouds will vanish. What we are up to this summer? Stay up to date by following me on Instagram. 

I'll be back in three weeks or if I cannot hold myself to share the online goodies before that. 

Have a great holiday and see you soon.

Hello Friday.... I am in need of summer

I won't bore you too much with the details as I am sure you all agree with me. We are in serious need of some summer. Just one more week of school and the holidays in our part of the country will start. Can't wait to be honest but would love the enjoy the no rush days with a ray of sunshine. So here is my kind request... Girls just wanna have sun!

Some happy things that have caught my eye this week. I really like the fresh and fun look from this Urban Outfitters bedding set. Both the bedsheet, the pillow and the mustard and grey duvet cover. 

I am a huge fan of good food. Not much of a cooker, all the more a great eater. That is probably why I love to work with the people I worked with last week. When I saw this picture on Pinterest I just had to pin it straight away. These platters are a lust for the eye and not very difficult to make. We sometimes skip the main meal and make a platter instead. 

Another thing that caught my eye is this fun and easy DIY adding your own personal touch to an IKEA chair. Thank you Sugar & Cloth for easy tutorial and the inspiring idea. It is one of her older posts but still very today in chosen pattern. As you can see it is easy to add your own style to basic furniture. Maybe a good idea for the teenagers who will leave their nest after summer to go to university. 

And still need to come up with an easy, affordable idea for the teacher at the end of the school year. Why not make them a lemonade jug. That's what I did after buying this jug at HEMA. I selected some fresh lemonade recipes from Pinterest and put them together on a sheet. To get her started over the weekend I added fresh lemons and mint leaves.
