Amsterdam II - every step we take

Everywhere we went made me look. I looked everywhere, and even some of the floors were interesting! Sorry about the shoe repetition, but we only took one pair each!

Amsterdam I - fell in love with the city

Yes, I fell madly in love with this city on the first day.
Maybe it was the french fries.
Maybe the bikes are to blame.
Or maybe the tulips with their bright colours.
I don't know.
I want to live here!

Handmade: yoga mat bag

This was so easy to make and is such a great way to carry my yoga mat around - I wonder why I didn't think of making one earlier!

Saturday indoors - recovering

Finally emerging from a 9-day-flu-indoors. Feel like myself again!

Sketching gear - custom made!

I made this for J on the evening before we went on summer holidays. He needed to pack his drawing material, and this was the solution I came up with. Today I would change some things (I am planning to do a new one soon)

I won! I won!

I won a beautiful gift, handmade by Alice, in her last giveaway. She has an interesting project along with her blog "NousNous", called "Saber Fazer". Really worth checking out.

I am fascinated by the beauty of japanese calygrafy and want to learn more and more. This time I took a workshop at Fundação Oriente (Lisbon) and had a chance to try different brushes and tecniques. So great.

Rainy weekend

Weekend spent at home, cooking, reading, napping... A much needed break.
