HOW MANY BITCOINS ARE MINED EVERY DAY

Have you been to a library lately?

I have…

But not the kind you are thinking of. I’ve stumbled upon a fashion library. It’s amazing how you live in a city for ages and still can find hidden gems like this.

We all crave new stuff, new clothes, new furniture… but then again, we all have old things, old clothes and furniture. So how do we replace old with the new? Sure, we can just keep on buying and accumulating stuff in our caves, lovingly walking

Aaaaaand a year is up!

Did I run screaming to the shops on first of January? No. That was the first thing that surprised me. I did miss shopping, but for different reasons than I thought I would. I missed the hunt, the social aspect, but after a year of

My girl Mandy Lauderdale (Creator of Rare Remedies. Crooner of cabaret. Master of jazz hands. Expert in upcycling. Maven of minimalism. Keeper of Mr. Stevens. Grantor of champagne. Lover of the slightly inappropriate) has really inspired me to make my own Christmas decorations this year (and for all the years

So it’s been a few months since I’ve cleared out my closets. These few months have been filled with new (long lost, at the back of my wardrobe) clothes. But after some time even my long lost friends don’t seem as exciting anymore.

I WANT NEW STUFF

Thought you'll never see me out of the house before 9...(ok, 10am?). Wrong! There's one thing that will get me out and about this early - dancing!

I've been to my share of after-parties, so when I heard about the "Morning Gloryville" party I was a tad skeptical. Being

So... it's been a long few months and I finally came to the end of my first big challenge: sorting out my closet.

Every girl is familiar with this concept: "my closet is full to the brims and still nothing to wear". Since I can't buy anything new I was

Quite often I need to use a light table for some illustration work. Using a light table can save a lot of time and paper, but most of them are bulky, expensive and difficult to assemble. If you don't have space in your office, a large budget and a lot

We have never really celebrated Valentine's Day. It's just too easy to go and buy some flowers, chocolates or a card. Too standard and not unique or personal enough (for me :).

This year my experiment actually inspired me to make a present. I always look for DIY ideas on the

A few weeks ago our neighbor came over and brought Maya these beautiful rain boots. Her little girl outgrew them and, after hearing about my project, she decided to give them to me. The boots where brand new, with the price tag still on.

Often we don’t know what

I am so inspired! I've been having a bit of a hard week... really wanted to shop, felt a bit sorry for myself. And then... and then I've stumbled upon an article in the British Telegraph. I'm going to highlight the parts that I found most interesting.

Sickened by the

Last week I've been invited to a crocheting group... A week before that I couldn't even tell you the difference between crocheting and knitting.

So when the lovely ladies from that group sat with their advanced projects, I got my "Crocheting for Dummies" out. After a while they've taken a

Last year a friend of mine has posted on her Facebook wall a post about a dinner guest she had over, Simon. Simon is a regular guy... except... except that he took upon himself a challenge: 365 days of eating dinner with different people. At least one of them has

So... I was invited by my lovely friend Merel to the first birthday party of the year. Normally (and I'm ashamed of it), I'd buy something on the way to the party and not even make a separate trip to the city for the present. I love my friends dearly

Yesterday I got a parcel from my mom. It was meant to be for the New Year (we celebrate that instead of Christmas). It was full of new things for the husband (t-shirts), baby (dress and pyjamas) and me (sweater and lipstick). The parcel was late... so I'm in a

The first item to finish in our house... (drum roll please) was floor cleaning liquid. Usually I buy cleaning products from German company "Frosch", which claims to be all natural and biological. The price for a bottle: 1,99 euro. I get about 100 washes out of a 1 liter
