Last year we had some friends over for Easter with us at home. It was an especially rainy one, so we did some crafts. We loved doing this ones with newspaper.
[…] Otra propuesta para decorar los huevos de Pascua, en este caso se trata de envolver los huevos (previamente hervidos) con papel de periódico, tan simple como esto. Recortar de forma ovalada unas divertidas orejas confeccionadas con papeles de colores, de los que seguramente os guardias de los regalos y pegarlos como si fueran las orejas. Para darle el toque simpático engancharle un mini pom-pom para el hocico y ya tenéis un huevo convertido en un divertido conejito para Pascua. Lo hemos visto en Babyccino Kids […]
Our Christmas is a bit of a cultural melting pot. One of my brothers lives in Germany, the other in Ireland, my parents are based in Italy and we arrive from France. Of course we all like to bring along some traditions from all of our countries, so we have these hilarious meals where we ...
It's almost incredible that it's that time of year again, but yes it is. Christmas is creeping up on us. Only 7 weeks to go!! Time to get organised... We've tried to make selecting presents for the little ones in your life as easy as possible, by creating four Gift Guides filled with amazing gift ideas. There's one for boys, ...
You're probably all fed up with gift wrapping after all of the festivities of the last few weeks, but I still wanted to share this super stylish wrapping paper from Casual Fridays with you. So fresh! It comes in a package of three rolls and a sheet of matching message stickers is included. To get ...
Laura Uy is a Canadian illustrator with such a lovely, playful style. Her work mainly focusses on greeting cards and prints, which make great decor pieces for children's rooms. I love that bear in the photo above, so whimsical (the gold stars are hand-painted and make the print extra pretty). Laura's greeting cards have such sweet illustrations with the cutest puns. There are cards for ...
As a young child, growing up in America, we would hand out Valentine cards to every child in our class. We used to create our own Valentine's Day letterboxes and tape them to our desks and everyone would go around sticking the Valentine cards into them. I remember taking home all of my Valentines cards ...
We're coming up on 'birthday season' in our house, where 5 out of the 6 of us have springtime birthdays! It's always a busy time in our family, and this year I have vowed to be a bit more organised than I was last year. (Last year all of my children's birthday parties were planned ...
Growing up with a German mother, celebrating advent was a big deal and magical to us children. In our family I have so much fun putting together and collecting gifts for the advent calendar. Henrik is now at such a wonderful age and gets really excited to open each advent. This year I found some ...
Halloween is around the corner, and I'm as unprepared as ever. Hmmm. !! I was feeling guilty about my tired stash of three-times worn Halloween costume options for Marlow and was needing a bit of inspiration... and these adorable costumes from Thumbelina have done the trick. How perfect are they?! I love a good fleecey zip-up costume ...
Today I would like to share the Christmas Cards we made at home this year which I posted in eb&m this week. With craft paper and a sewing machine we made the envelopes, and the cards. With a snowflake punch I garnished the cards a little bit. And then Nico painted them!! Now we have ...
Happy Easter everyone! Easter is one of my favourite holidays -- the idea of celebrating the beginning of spring is just so wonderful. We have been spending the days cooking, eating, and hanging out with friends and I thought it would be nice to share some of our Easter traditions with you... A week or two before Easter, ...
First day of Advent (and the sweetest Christmas calendar from Fabelab)
Last year I blogged about our last minute advent calendar -- not a calendar filled with gifts and sweets, but one filled with little notes suggesting a daily activity to get us in the mood for Christmas. It was a huge success and a tradition was born, so I just (quite last minute again!) put ...
We don't have a Valentines Day tradition here in the Netherlands, and part of the idea I think is majorly over-commercialised, but the main thought -- expressing and celebrating our love for our best friends and family -- I think is important to emphasise. On Valentines day; every day! These prints by This Many Design ...
