Preparing for Sunday Market 6th June Amsterdam

To some of you this is not news. I will be attending the Sunday market on 6th June in Amsterdam. I am working hard to make all the necessary preparations. And so today I decided to 'practice' my booth setup. I stuck my mobiles to the ceiling with some adhesive tape to see what it will look like when they hang from the booth. I took some pictures. Here's one of them.

More posts about preparations coming soon.

Visiting Turkey

We visited Turkey recently and enjoyed ourselves extremely well. It's such a beautiful country and we met amazingly hospitable and friendly people. Here's an impression of our travelling.

Visiting Utrecht, meeting friends

Last Saturday I visited Utrecht. I met up with some members of the Dutch Handmade blog. This blog promotes Dutch Etsyshops and their owners. I contribute to this blog by interviewing members. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of this meeting. That's not the only thing that didn't go as planned. We agreed to be there at 2 and I tried to make it in time, but the traffic was terrible, I don't know Utrecht very well and sort of got lost. Well, to make a long story short, I was late. 
But it was great fun to meet up with PlanetFur, Mamutopia, ZsBcreations, GreenEnvydesigns, Handmade Handsome, Pinipiru, MissMinoes, BisouVanRianne and KittyKilian, who is not a seller on Etsy. Off course all of these shopowners have normal names, but I don't remember all of them, sorry guys! 

After the meeting I met up with one of my dearest friend, who I have known almost our lifetime. We usually catch up while drinking tea or having lovely dinners or both, because we always have a lot to talk about. I always look forward to this.
We had dinner together last Saturday in a great restaurant, but before we did, we went for a stroll through the old historic part of Utrecht and that's when I remembered I took my camera.
