One of the treasured art pieces we have in our living room is the paper cut map of Amsterdam by Famille Summerbelle. I just love the details of it (some of them are so cute and funny!) and the concentric shape of the city, with all its canals, which makes it so typically 'Amsterdam'. The ...

My friend Sabien's company Engel is all about partying. It became well-known for its bunting, but nowadays Engel offers everything you need to celebrate and decorate: big pompoms, fun party hats, colourful garlands, pretty paper flowers and so much more -- it really is a party treasure cove. Engel also offers handy (and eco-friendly!) bamboo children's tableware: sweet little sets including a ...

Famille Summerbelle just came out with these adorable house storage boxes. I just love how clever and decorative they are. Yes please for my office, which is in need of organisation! Plus -- a perfect present for the holidays, don't you think? xxx Esther

We are big fans of the beautiful paper-cut maps of Famille Summerbelle, so we can only love this new line of notebooks that were released today. Featuring the famous World Map and the cities of London, Paris, New York City and San Francisco, they are just perfect to plan your next city trip, or use as a stylish destination for your daily ...

I am a huge, long-standing fan of Famille Summerbelle as I really do admire the craft and hard work that goes into making each one of their beautiful pieces. (Remember this video?) Famille Summerbelle  has just brought out a new range of mugs and trays and I am very partial toward the Paris designs. I love ...

I am such a big fan of Famille Summerbelle, especially of the hand screen-printed city maps. I love the way every tiny detail on the map is so well thought out and incorporated into the image. Julie, the designer, cuts out every little detail by hand with a scalpel. I cannot even imagine the kind ...

I have been a bit interior-decor obsessed lately, as I have been redoing my flat. We have been living in a building site with dust everywhere! Coco managed to lean against a freshly painted white wall: the result was a white line all down her back from her hair to her jeans, just like a ...

Julie from Famille Summerbelle has done it again -- another beautiful print of her hand-cutting genius. This Love Bugs print is so pretty -- and how cool is that little spider hanging down?! I love it! And just in time for Valentine's Day (I hope my husband is reading). PS - If you haven't seen ...

Do you remember the beautiful hand-cut city maps from Famille Summerbelle? We've mentioned them a few times here on Babyccino Kids -- clearly we are huge fans.  Well, they've just this week launched their world map print and it is stunning! I love all the details, including the little idiosyncrasies of each continent, plus the ...

One of the many reasons I love working on Babyccino is because I get to meet so many hugely talented people. Recently I met up with Julie from Famille Summerbelle and I was blown away by her work. I had come across Famille Summerbelle lots of times on blogs and in magazines, so I was ...

The wonderfully kind and talented Julie from Famille Summerbelle invited me to the Pulse trade show last week. It was my chance to meet her, see her new products, and browse the many other designers on display. The show was great -- I promised my husband I wouldn't be more than two hours, but it ...

(All photo credits: Yvonne Eijkenduijn of Yvestown) I'm super proud to announce a little project I've been working on with my friend Julie Marabelle (the super talented lady behind the well known brand Famille Summerbelle) and Snor, the coolest publishers here in the Netherlands: we made a Friends' Book! Now, if you're not Dutch (or ...

We moved into our new house two months ago now, and we are just finally starting to feel settled. Boxes are (mostly) unpacked, artwork is up on the walls, and it's starting to feel like home. I thought it would be fun to share some photos of my daughter's bedroom.  Over the past two months, ...
