Tomorrow will be my 38th birthday and as I found out that Bo didn’t plan any work we’ve decided to drive up to England to do some Christmas shopping. Now what’s a better Birthday gift for me? Before I leave I want to show you the one room that’s Christmas proof.
I don’t believe in a one coloured Christmas, I decorate according to the colours I use in my home. This article is in German but if you put it in Google translate you’ll get to know about the multi-coloured trend that’s going on right now. Well I’ve been multi-coloured my whole life, literally that is.
I mix vintage with homespun. I’ve made the paper garlands myself and tied a Christmas tree on the Jag, like everyone does. It’s just so funny …
I stuff the room with many coloured candles and lit them when it’s dark. I place pink hyacinths in cups for the lovely flowers and the lovely smell.
The pink wire basket is from Ferm Living and my latest treasure, it’s so beautiful!!
And I dress to match the room. Boy I wish it was Christmas all year round.
See you in a couple of days xox






I wish you a safe journey Yvonne, and a wonderful 38th when it arrives. 38′s a great age to be, I should know
Thank you for sharing your home, I especially love the tree tied to the Jag. Inspired….

You’re such an inspiration! You and Jutta of Kootut Murut have made me wish for a more colourful home where I’d feel happier with all the colour around me – and I’ve started taking the first steps. I think your Christmas looks just delightful and happy and absolutely so homely!
The little tree cracked me up -genius idea!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
I loooooove your tree!

Bo made the table.
Lucky you!! But I found out that the small company that made our bed, produce also tables
Your home is elegant and Beautiful!! Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday wishes!!
LOVE the jag! Have a great birthday shopping spree, and share it with us please. My tree has all the decos I’ve collected over the years just piled on. I adore Christmas.
Mag ik vragen waar je het kerstboompje (dat boven op de auto ligt) vandaan hebt?
Alvast bedankt!
Heb ik in Amerika gekocht. Maar probeer Intratuin eens.
Bedankt!
simply love it!
Hello! Your blog is very inspiring! I love the Christmas tree on the jaguar! I will surely do that on my fiat 500 model!
Belated happy birthday Yvonne, hope you had a great day
Wat een heerlijk huis heb je toch, helemaal mijn ding! Enjoy de Kerstdagen!
Prachtige boom! Dank voor het delen! lfs, Femke
Yvon! Die lieve, mooie, gezellige dames op dat groene doek. Wie schilderde dat? Ik ken een grote Fan
Fijn weekend!
mijn vriend, Auk van Hilten, heeft dat schilderij gemaakt. Het zijn 2 vriendinnen van hem met carnaval kleding aan. http://www.avhilten.com
What a sweet, beautiful home you’ve created Yvonne! I love the dog/cat basket under the tree. This year I convinced my kids that it was ok to have a smaller Christmas tree and put it on a table. We got one yesterday and it looks great, but I was wondering what to put under it.
Thanks for sharing.
Sprookjesachtig en in harmonie!Ben verliefd op jouw interieur.
Wat een leuke blog! Mag ik vragen waar de lampen boven je eettafel vandaag komen?
