Nail Polish Identity Crisis

Image via WeHeartIt

I have been painting my toenails bright red for the past I don'tl know how long. Earlier this week I decided that maybe a change would be nice, so I went for a nice turquoise-ish green. Result: An identity crisis whenever I look at my toes!

Maybe I should switch back to red for my toes, but I would like to use all the other colors of nail polish I have (and want to buy!). I never wear any on my finger nails, because I can't seem to keep it on. Maybe I craft too much, or maybe I am just a clutz, in any case, my nail polish is always chipped within a few hours.

So my question to those of you who are also crafty and/or clutzy, but who do wear nail polish on their finger nails: How do you do it? What's the best brand to buy? Should I add a base or top layer? Any other tips?

How Not To Do Laundry

It's always nice to have an excuse to put off doing laundry for another day. Like because all your clothespins are used for nicer purposes.

Baby News!

I have exciting baby news! No, I am not pregnant myself, but my little sister is! I am going to be an aunt! I've known for a while now, but I had to keep it a secret until my sister and her boyfriend told everyone they wanted to tell in person. I got the all clear a few weeks ago, and shared it on Twitter, but I never got around to sharing the big news here.

My sister and her boyfriend have been together for what seems centuries (in reality it's 8 years, they started going out when she was 18), so I was always secretly (and not so secretly) hoping that they would start making babies soon, but I didn't really expect it to happen so suddenly. I love it!

People now seem to think that just because she is 2 years younger than me, I suddenly need to be pregnant too, or that it's hard for me that my younger sister is having a kid before I am. Huh? No! I am just really really happy. It's not the right time in life for me to start a family, but I did reach the "OMG babies are so cute, can I steal yours?" phase, so what's better than getting a niece or nephew, a baby that is soooooooooooooo close to me, but not mine?

Apple Coasters from Monika Design

Crochet Apple Coasters by Monika Design

Some time ago Monika from Monika Design held a giveaway for a set of her coasters...and I won! I got to choose which set I wanted. Not a hard choice, because I have loved her apple coasters forever. They came in the mail the other day, and they are just as cute in real life, so I definitely recommend you checking out her shop.

Flow Magazine

It was such a gloomy and wet day here yesterday. Luckily I had no plans, so I spent the day reading my favorite new magazine Flow on the couch, listening to the cozy sound of the rain.

I only discovered Flow recently, when Maartje from Mamutopia told me about it. I can't believe I didn't know about this magazine before, because its fantastic! Just look at the cover, I should have noticed that in the shops, right? I guess its a sign that I don't look at the magazine shelves in the bookstore enough.

Anyway, when Maartje told me about the magazine, I went out an got the latest issue. I loved it so much, that I ended up getting s subscription and ordering some back issues right away! Every issue is filled with interesting articles & stories, the best shopping tips (you now, all those cute little webshops you wouldn't have found out about otherwise!) and it comes with lots of freebies lie cards and notebooks and other fun stuff. Aaaah. It's like reading a blog on paper, and then getting tons of free goodies along with it. Love! ♥

So, if you are Dutch and hadn't heard about Flow yet (in other words: if you lived under a rock, like I did), hop hop to the shop and go get the latest issue. Sorry for those of you who aren't Dutch!
