The Wonder in Us

A few weeks ago we were contacted by Douglas Little of D.L. & Co., who wanted to use our Dark Floral II XL (200%) wallpaper for a window display at Bergdorf Goodman during New York Fashion Week. Here's the amazing result!

How to change your powder room into a real paradise? Some of our clients inspired us by hanging Ellie's Wallpaper in such a small place where you can spend some hours to just enjoy the beauty of flowers.

Some time ago, Nikki Kanowski (@jeadoreblogger) made a pair of mother-daughter dresses using our Dark Floral Fabric. Her gorgeous photos caught our eye on Instagram, so we got in touch with Nikki to hear her story. Here's a short interview we conducted with her recently.

Not a whole lot of time last week to write (or think) anything too thought-provoking. I take a lot of pictures of chairs these days but never actually sit in any of them ...

An alternative title for this post is 'Work Life Balance.' I feel like I'm always trying to find the right balance between time spent at work and with my family.

When I started this blog almost exactly 4 years ago I decided to call it The Wonder in Us. I was going to (b)log about my pursuit of a dream/goal to become a successful designer.

In October of last year I started taking painting lessons from a teacher here in the Netherlands who specializes in the techniques of the Old Masters. I think he's what you could call a 'national living treasure.'

Today I added a new product category to the shop: Silk Scarves. Dark Floral, Dark Floral II Black Saturated and Dark Floral II Gray on Silk Charmeuse (130 cm square) are the first products in the collection.

At the beginning of 2015, I moved out of the attic studio that had been my work space for six years and took over a little bit of space at my husband’s office.

I haven’t written here at the blog in a long time. One of my New Year’s resolutions is to write/blog more (weekly) in 2016, and I’m planning to start right now and stick to that.
