Easter Home Decor at De Bosrand
















Easter is only three weeks away, so it's the right time to start decorating the house. I love Easter home decor, it's so cute! After a long winter, I always long for fresh flowers, bright colors and cute baby animals. Garden center De Bosrand in Wassenaar is my absolute favorite for Easter decoration. Their spring bouquets, centrepieces, wreaths and Easter decorations are the best! See for yourself at:

Welcome Spring 2025

 












Finally... Spring 2025 is here! I was longing for spring so bad, just like many people I guess. After months of cold and grey weather, we are all ready for some sunshine, higher temperatures, flowers that are blooming, having a drink outside, spring walks, new spring fashion, the start of the beach season... So Welcome Spring 2025!

Cabana Capri

 











Cabana Capri is one of the prettiest home decor stores I have ever seen! Owner Helen White, a former editor for (U.S.) Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, really knows how to seduce you with the most incredible home decor items and fashion accessories. 

Cabana Capri offers bamboo cutlery, rattan placemats, mouth blown glassware from Murano/Venice, Mediterranean tableware, appetizer plates, embroidered napkins, as well as objects that can be used as centerpieces.... it's just too much to mention.

If you're going to Capri and you're looking for a unique gift, for example for a wedding, the hostess of a dinner party, or for yourself, this is the place to be. I literally wanted to buy everything in the store!! Especially the water carafe with koalas and the gilded seashell salt cellars blew my mind... 

Cabana Capri also has a younger sibling... Cabana St. Moritz. Read all about it in one of my previous articles: Cabana St. Moritz

Valentine's Day Wishlist 2025











 






With only a week until Valentine's Day you better hurry if you still have to find a suitable Valentine's Day gift! It's the thought that counts... so a gift doesn't have to be expensive if you ask me. Heart-shaped pasta can be just as nice as a bouquet of red roses. As long as you write a nice Valentine's Day card, give it your all, put in some TLC (tender loving care)... and make sure it's suitable for the object of your affection! In case you need some inspiration, here's my yearly Valentine's Day Wishlist:
