Red street art in Breda on Saturday.

... and red fruits for breakfast on Sundaymorning in the frontyard.

Loving those sunny summerdays of the last weeks.

Have a bright and cozy pre x-mas Friday!

backyard poppies

The oriental poppies in the backyard are blooming.
The huge poppies are quite strong, you can pick them and they just remain beautiful in the vase for quite some days.

We planted it some years ago and it requires no special care.
The bright red cup-shaped blooms grace our early summer garden.

Autumn is my favorite 'fashion' season.
Wearing cardigans, boots and layered clothing.
I love the earthy tones of this season.

Today I found my new boots in Rotterdam.
In the shop I put my old boots in the box, to wear my new pair straightaway...

(had to strike a pose in front of this Marrakech-style wall)

Dear all, have a nice Indian summer weekend!

the red makes it

Our kitchen, this Friday morning.

The kitchen is actually very basic, white and bright. The red makes it...(without dominating)

I love this place!

red beanies project

This week i've knitted three red beanies.

Pippa asked me to make a thight red beanie for her some weeks ago.
So I ordered a crochet kit with two red balls of 100% wool and a crochet needle at we are knitters™.
Pippa's beanie was ready in less than 2 hours. She loves it and I made another one for a sweet friend the next day. I could easily make two thight beanie out of one ball of wool and so had enough wool left to make myself another beanie in red. (like my brown beanie) It's lovely to wear, so warm and soft!

Finally I decided to knit the three hats anyway and did use the crochet needle only to make a big red heart... Knitting with needles No 15 goes like a rocket!
