Breda

Yesterday I met my dear friend Inge in Breda for lunch. She lives near Eindhoven, while I live in Rotterdam, so Breda is sort of in the middle. On the internet I found a place for lunch called Stilleven. It was really cosy! At Stilleven you can have lunch, or a coffee with pie, but you can also buy accessories for the home. At the back they have a cute little courtyard, where we sat outside in the sun (and later in the rain...).

We both had a sandwich & some mint tea, both were nice. We also had something sweet. I had a piece of pistache-mango pie and Inge had a brownie. I didn't like the pie that much, and neither the brownie (I had a little bite of Inge's brownie). So I wouldn't advise to go for the sweet stuff. I must admit thoughtthat I'm not much of a 'sweet' person anyway, so maybe it's just me.

Quiero! op Lowlands 2012

Last weekend (17, 18 + 19 August) I was on a big three-day festival in the Netherlands; Lowlands. I wasn't there as a normal visitor, but I was there with a market stall on the so-called Etsy Bazaar to sell Quiero! jewelry (my brand) & to put some nice neon & glitter festival make-up on the party people! I shared the stall with Nicole Sies from Studio BIG. She makes beautiful felt phonecovers, and especially for Lowlands she also made some little bags and some bracelets and necklaces.

Nicole & I had met only a few times before Lowlands, so I found it quite exciting, but all went well. We got along very well, and also we helped out each other's customers. I am very thankful that I could do this together with Nicole!

It was very hot during Lowlands festival, especially on Saturday & Sunday (30+ degrees Celcius). Everyone was looking for some shadow. Underneath our Etsy 'tent' there was shadow and also the wind could blow through it (íf it blew), so according to a lot of visitors we were lucky to be underneath the tent (and they joined us).
