I've been a big Super Rural fan for quite a long time now. It started out with their famous For Like Ever poster, you can see it featured in my home here and here.

I can't tell you how happy I am with this new sponsorship thing I have going on. And I can't tell you how happy I am that Super Rural is one of my sponsors and sent this amazing neon pink (heart) ampersand print to me. It hangs perfectly in my new dining room above the magazine table.

Thank you Tracy for being such an amazing sponsor!

I'm really excited to introduce you to a new blog sponsor, Falcon Enamelware.

I bought one of the Falcon Enamelware Bake Sets, in the white & blue rim, over a year ago. Ever since the day those dishes arrived everything else I used for baking went out.

Falcon Enamelware was kindly enough to sent me a Pie Set, in Pillarbox Red, to promote on my blog. I'm so delighted to now have both sets as I have the perfect array for baking, cooking and grilling.

All Falcon Enamelware products don't burn, don't fade are dishwasher and oven proof up to 270 C. They can also be used on gas and electric hobs. The extra bonus is that they look amazingly rustic and are so easy to clean. They are also unbreakable, boy do I love this product.

I've made a really simple apple crumble in the large dish of the Pie Set and ate it, with some lemon sorbet ice cream, out of the smallest dish of the Pie Set.

Follow Falcon Enamelware on Twitter and Facebook.

I had the pleasure to conduct a colour sampler for the Dutch website www.kleurinspiratie.nl. It's a very fun and useful website about paint.

You can view my colour sampler (kleurtrend) here and read an interview with me (in Dutch) over here. Try throwing the page into Google Translator to understand what I'm babbling about.

Have a lovely day xox

Hello there, I'm back again after spending a week on the sofa with a nasty cold.

Today I bring you a sponsor post, if you want to become a sponsor click here.

My friend, Roel, is one of the founders of ixxi. By now I think you all have heard of this amazing company that makes decorative wall systems. I've been thinking about an ixxi for my own for a while now but couldn't come up with one as I didn't want to just enlarge a photo. Frankly speaking I'm not keen on family photos on the wall or anywhere in the house for that matter.

So after some pondering and contemplating a large bare wall in my basement studio I came up with an ixxi crochet wall hanging. I individually photographed 25 unique crochet starburst rounds on a white paper background, cut and resized them all to the same size in Photoshop and uploaded them to the ixxi mainframe.

Once I had my ixxi at home and up on the wall I thought it looked boring with the x's and i's onto the back, as it's supposed to be. So I thought I could have them the wrong way round as it looks like a cross stitch instead. It worked and I love it!

The cool thing is that I can order more cards of the various startburst rounds and make the ixxi larger. I have my very own ixxi crochet blanket!

Get in touch with me if you'd like an ixxi/yvestown crochet blanket for yourself.
