a Lewis for a talented lady who will soon be leaving Paris for a new home in Montreal. bon voyage Séverine!
the school holidays are nearly over and I am very much looking forward to the weekend.
have a good one everyone x

Forgot to mention that Louise and Gracia took some lovely photos of the postcards, have a look!

i re-arranged the inspiration board yesterday. other corners in the house require my attention but this somehow felt more urgent and more fun.

the staff from Couverture kindly sent me pictures of the dolls sitting in the window.
you can see more pics on their site homepage. love it!

i visited my friend in London on Saturday, i would have like to steal a few things from her flat.
hope you had a nice weekend x

In wales we went to an English civil war re-enactment.
Life and craft in the Seventeenth century were also re-created, i find the children's outfits very inspiring. the children also looked very natural.
it is school holiday time so things are going to be quiet (sort of) over here.
the next shop update will probably happen towards the end of the month. in the meantime there are still a few dolls available at Petit Deco + a new couple over at Couverture.

Scenes from the Easter weekend in Wales. it only rained briefly and we caught a nice rainbow in the middle of it.
it was nice to come back home and find the apricot tree in full bloom.
the other highlights of last weekend summed up in two words: Doctor Who.

this sailor top dress was fun to make. it is Lumi's size of course, a special commission for Couverture.
they wanted Lumi's dress to be inspired by Rachel Comey's sailor dress (here is an easy tutorial
on how to make a sailor's collar).
a new Lewis accompanied Lumi but i didn't have time to take any pictures before they left..
the apricot tree is blooming and reminds us it is Spring despite the greyness and the clouds. talking about clouds, Alessandra will have some lovely new ones in her shop tomorrow, go and check it out!
and the picture of Lucien showing the boys how to play the keyboard makes me smile, so here it is!
