More Easter Table Inspiration





















Easter is coming up soon... with only ten days until Easter Sunday, I started thinking about my Easter table setting. Every year I try to decorate the table in a (slightly) different way.
Sometimes all you need is a different type of flowers. In fact, Easter flowers don't necessarily have to be yellow. I like to experiment with unusual colors, like pink or lilac.

The same goes for my tableware. Although I love the colorful ceramics from Vietri by Solimene Art, I also use white plates with a bamboo trim, square turquoise plates and "green cabbage" plates by Bordallo Pinheiro.

Other small details that can give your Easter tablescape a new look are (cloth) napkins, vintage glassware, bamboo cutlery, embroidered tablecloths and more. A must-have for any Easter table if you ask me is an Italian colomba cake by Loison!

Happy International Women's Day






Happy International Women's Day! In Italy this Day is celebrated by giving women mimosa. Since I lived in Italy, it's one of my favourite traditions. Although flowers can't take away all the problems women are (still) facing around the world... it’s a nice gesture.

This year my heart goes out especially to the women and girls in Afghanistan... where they have literally no rights left... 
In these difficult times let's try to be nice to one another and support the women in your life.
