indoor oasis

You can never have too many houseplants.

Although we don't have plants everywhere in the house, but clustered together in one place in the kitchen, the 'daybed-side' of the living and in my atelier.

Yesterday I've adopted some green babies (cyperus haspan, banana plant, sparmania africana, mimosa pudica) some of which can go outside in the garden in spring. For the time being they will stay inside for an indoor oasis atmosphere.

sustainable & eco friendly evergreen

Do you fancy one of the three sustainable x-mas trees?

You can order them in my ETSY SHOP and you will definitely have it in time for Christmas.

The utterly cute hare family that I bought years ago at Anthropologie also has made its appearance from the attic.

They are my traditional models on the recycled x-mas trees.

If you want an unique and eco friendly Christmas tree that lasts for years and takes up little space, you have 3 pieces to choose from.

jubilee for a sustainable evergreen

New sustainable and unique handmade trees in the SHOP

10 years in a row, a jubilee year for the original woodwoolstool x-mas tree.
I'd rather don't mention the x-word yet, but already got some questions about the trees this weekend.

Therefore, entirely according to tradition, I've made a small collection of the eco-friendly trees for the enthusiasts.

It's never too early (and late) for an evergreen! Have a look and pick your favorite.
