canadian designer Jillian Harris

were are in deepest winter here. minus 16 this morning. lots of snow. uuuuaaa.

are my kids dressed warm enough for a whole day inside and outside?

am a little obsessed with Canada these days, therefore a post about the canadian interior designer Jillian Harris. many might recognize her from `the bachelor/bachelorette`.

but she is also a talented designer. lately she did some episodes of `extreme makeover - homeedition`.

besides that she seems like a charming and positive person.

 here some of her designs:

hi again!

i feel like a bad blogger lately...not much blogging, but a lot of working and other things;)

work is just very fun right now:D

yesterday we were at the wedding of my husbands brother. these two are sooo in love, it`s beautiful to see.

i wish them all the luck!

wanted to show you gift wrapping ideas, of course, because it`s xmas soon. and because the wedding and my beautiful daughters 7 th birthday tomorrow have inspired me xtra much.

have fun with wrapping your presents!

just wanted to show you some of my favourite materials. i do like the old-fashioned real materials. they give a feel of quality. wood, linen, stone, felt, glass, porcelain.

another week has past. the thermometer shows -9 C this morning.

am headed for a bachelorette-party this afternoon. there is so much happening in the time before x-mas. every weekend there is at least one event. puuuh.

as long as i`m healthy it`s good fun!

yesterday at work i was talking to a client with a runny nose. don`t get too near me, please;)

when i look outside the window, everything is covered in ice. well well, the snow might just come as well then!

 hugs
