sibella court books

Sibella Court, bestselling author of Etcetera, The Stylist's Guide to NYC, Nomad, Bowerbird and Gypsy is a globetrotter and treasure hunter.

Sibella is a unique and incomparable stylist and author. I love her style and sense of color.

Last week Henk got the 'The Life of a Bowerbird' a as birthday gift, which makes our Court book collection almost complete. Today I enjoyed browsing Bowerbird*

Heavenly books, full of inspiration to look at again and again! Highly recommended. You can find them all in The Society Inc.

* A bowerbird is an Australian native bird that builds a reedy ground nest and goes to extraordinary lenghts to decorate it with 'stolen' goods and found objects like shells, bones, pegs and shiny milk caps.

Saturday, another sunny day, what a spring!

Curtains fluttering in the wind, what do you mean 'spring fever'...

In the morning we visited the market and Lammies Shop (more on that later).
In the afternoon we made some wood & wool stools and a scrapwood frame for the Picasso, we brought from Bruges last week.

The new Gypsy book by Sibella Court was delivered today and we slowly browsed it [sigh] on the garden bench.
My friend Rosa showed me the book some weeks ago and I fell in love. Some books you simply have to buy.
