shop update



Thursday already. we are slowly recovering from a stomach bug that affected half the household (including me) early this week..
so the shop update will now be on Monday 1st December at about 3.30pm GMT
i've been trying to take decent pictures of Lumi but these little guys kept on trying to steal the limelight.
Elisabeth's show & tell home tour is very enjoyable, isn't it?
have a nice weekend x

cool tattoos






rain, rain, rain
Chacha's tattoos brightened the weekend up. I grew up with Alain Gree's books and Chacha's collection with his illustrations makes me very happy.
thank you for your nice comments about the website, it still needs a bit of work but a nearly one year old is keeping me pretty busy at the moment and i can't do much about it.
