Counting down to Christmas * Last Minute Gift Ideas


Look at these beautiful toys made out of wood. Cute mobiles and teether rings for the smallest. A fancy scooter and a circus on rails ... What would your kids like under the Christmas tree?

Diese Sachen sind sooo süß! Endlich mal etwas andere Greiflinge in schönen Farben, niedliche Mobiles und tolles Spielzeug - alles aus Holz. Der Vespa konnte ich gerade noch widerstehen, aber den Zirkus bekommt unser Kleiner zu Weihnachten... ;-)

I just looove Annelies' neon advent calendar! Don't you? I have to admit I have never ever made a pom-pom before in my life... They always looked kind of complicated to make with the cardboard circles and stuff, but now I have found a super easy tutorial on julep! Yeah!

Counting down to Christmas * Neon Advent Calendar


I wanted a neon Advent calendar for my girl this year and started off with some washi tape and neon wool for pompoms. She's loving it!

In Duitsland vieren we Advent met een zelfgemaakte adventskalender. Ik heb me helemaal laten meesleuren en heb dagenlang neon pompoms gemaakt. Superleuk vindt m'n meisje hem. Al heeft zij het dan vooral over de inhoud... ;-)
