Grateful for my daughter getting on board to have my wallpaper in her room. A comfortable space with her own mini library. Larger than life peonies in a small room where she can grow older.
An exciting new project so happy to share. Peonywallpaper out now. More in my instastories.

Happy sunday from my home to yours.
Still dahlias with the first chrysanthemum. I always try to delay that moment of buying the first chrysanthemums because it always means the absolute end of summer with no prospect of warm (sunny)days anymore. Snapdragon and cosmos flowers, crabapple and lots of big hydrangeas. Fall has officially started in our home. I’m embracing the gifts of autumn. Wishing you a lovely Sunday and beautiful new week everyone.

They call them the dancing houses /de “Dansende Huisjes” Picture taken from the boat last Friday.
My apologies in advance for the blurry sight but the thing is that these houses are impossible to photograph without the help of a boat. I was so fortunate to be on a boat with my son and his class when they were sailed back to school, after an outing at the Hermitage museum. It has been raining almost non stop in the past few weeks and there is no change in the weather for the next few weeks. I always find it amazing how our crooked canalhouses are still standing after all these years. Sending love from rainy Amsterdam. Have a lovely Sunday and bright sunny new week everyone.

Sugar roses
You always have to decide upfront in which blooming stage you want to create a sugar flower. I’m the first one to admit I have a pattern. Open roses always a favorite.

Sugar rose
Hope your week has been coming up roses. A visit with my sons class at the hermitage this morning. A stunning exhibition, Jewels! On display. So wonderful to see incredible treasures with the young ones. Diamonds and more through their eyes. Creating their own jewelry after the tour with goldpaper and bling stones. A boat bringing us back to school sailing the canals of Amsterdam. After so much beauty and activity hardly any attention left for the beauty of the canalhouses. I can’t blame them. Passing these houses daily, chatting with eachother much more interesting than our architecture. Back in my kitchen now, my morning in my #instastories
Happy friday. Sending love and wishing you a wonderful weekend everyone.

Happy Sunday, raining outside. It is pouring down actually with the darkest clouds. My favorite and most special tulips from @passionfortulips Hardly ever that I repost my sunday flowerarrangments at home. But taking the opportunity today because it is unfortunately impossible to photograph this weeks flowers because of the darkness all day long. Photography always with natural daylight.
It always works the other way round. Planting tulip bulbs on my rooftop as we speak in the fall to enjoy all this beauty in the spring.
Whether loads of bulbs in a garden with plenty of space or just a single planter for a balcony, not a whole lot gives me more pleasure and something to look forward to than those first green heads poking out the soil catching the first rays of sunshine after a wet fall and long cold winter. Making the most today with candle light, my family and plenty cups of hot tea.
Fall or spring on your side, have a lovely sunday and beautiful new week everyone.

These lovely amsterdam canalhouses. My apologies for my absence this past week. We had reserved a few days off for the restoration of one of the ceilings in our living area. A few days has turned into two full weeks. More damage than we expected, hitting a brick wall (in the ceiling we knew nothing about) longer drying time than estimated and to make matters worse... coming back home at the end of the day to a completely finished room in... the wrong colour.
All is almost well now. The right colours are back in place and we keep our fingers crossed that the leakage will be history. I love these houses, wouldn’t want to live anywhere else, but there is always something going on somewhere.
I know there are worse, more serious things in life but I’m not the best person when it comes to home renovations. There are people who thrive in chaos or when builders are at work. I wish I was one of those. Thrive instead of just survive.
I hope to resume to my regularly postings soon. Happy to share up next my sundayflowers. Sending all my love from Amsterdam. Thank you for your patience everyone.

Happy sunday at home with roses, dahlias, hydrangeas and delphiniums. In love with the frilly, fuzzy soft pink lysianthis. I love this time with hydrangeas blooming. They make flowerarranging so much easier. Eventhough I can occasionally feel blue, blue has always been my favorite colour. Everything always looks brighter with a little bit of blue. Happy or sad, flowers always by my side and to the rescue.
Have a lovely sunday and bright beautiful new week everyone. I would love to hear the things you can’t live without and that make you happy.

Last two days of summer expected this weekend for us. Nothing but rain next week. Soaking in the sun as much as I can before the rain drops and fall sets in.

Happy sunday from my home to yours. Dahlias, zinnia’s and soft scabiosa. Lysianthis and Japanese anemone as a cut flower. I love how each year more garden flowers are being offered as cut flowers.
The lights are changing from light to dark at an earlier time. I can tell fall is waiting. Fall or spring on your side, have a lovely sunday and bright new week everyone.

Sugar Hibiscus
One of my most frequently asked questions... how long do sugar flowers last? In real life hibiscus flowers are very short lived. They usually bloom for only one day. So happy to be able to recreate. Sugarflowers when kept out of direct sunlight (because of fading) and out of moisture they last forever.
Happy saturday and a lovely weekend everyone🌺

Happy sunday from my home to yours. Dahlias, roses, hydrangeas, zinnia’s cosmos, scabiosa and Japanese anemones from saturday’s market. End of summer blooms giving me lots of colour and inspiration to go on this week. The small vases with single flowers just as important as the big (ginger) jar. I always keep moving the smaller vases around. At the dinner table with high and low candles or at my desk, there always needs to be a bloom everywhere.
Have a lovely sunday and beautiful, colourful new week everyone.

Favorite corner. One of the oldest cafés in Amsterdam, this corner never gets old. Cappuccino and apple pie the usual order. It is on both sides left and right of this corner I always buy my weekly flowers. Every saturday a moment I always look forward to. Up next my sunday flowers.
Sending you a postcard from Amsterdam signing it with love. Have a lovely sunday and wonderful new week everyone.

Sugar Dahlias
They take forever to make. Dahlias one of the most time consuming of all flowers. A tbt to last year’s sugar dahlias before recreating new ones.
Some people meditate. This is just another way for me stay grounded and clear my mind. One sugar petal at a time.
Hope your week is going well. Have a lovely day everyone.

First of september. A new sunday, a new week, a new month and almost a new season. Wishing you a beautiful time everyone.

Breathing space. Happy sunday. The most beautiful dahlia’s from @famflowerfarm There are over 250 varieties here. Just when I think I found a favorite, a new one comes along and captures my heart. Watching the sun go down with dahlias as far as the eye can see. These are the moments I feel so rich and lucky to be able to experience, this slice of heaven in Holland. Upnext my sunday flowers. Dahlia’s...ofcourse.
Happy September everyone. Wishing you a beautiful sunday and a happy new month.

Happy sunday from my home to yours. Dahlias, roses and zinnias from saturday’s market. Every tone of hot pink in a gingerjar. Enjoying these as much as I can. Even if only for a brief moment. Flowers can only take so much when it comes to heat. Another extremely hot day in Amsterdam. Recordtemps expected again this week. The streets today were unusually quiet. Everyone keeping their cool indoors.
Have a lovely sunday and beautiful new week everyone. First day of school for my children tomorrow. Let the new year begin!

When you don’t have a garden... Sunday sunset at the garden of the Rijksmuseum. Pink Japanese anemone in full bloom. I wish summer could last forever. Sharing one of my favorite spots in Amsterdam. The most precious, finest art displayed behind these walls. It will take me less than 10 min on my bike to watch Rembrandt or Vermeer just to name a few. This reason alone one to not move out of Amsterdam yet.
Happy sunday everyone. Enjoy this new week. Hope you can find some breathing space in a garden or find some time viewing beauty and art.

Sugar Agapanthus
Its name derived from the Greek words “agape” which means love and “anthos” meaning flower.
All of the above translating to flower of love. Hope all is well. Sending lots of love everyone.
