It's not every day that you stumble upon a product with your own name. But it happened when Igor and I discovered these glass terrariums from Holland called Urban Jungles. Lucky us, they are pretty and the perfect gift for any Urban Jungle Blogger 😉 Urban Jungles are glass terrariums made from glass & solder. Read article…

Joyeux Noël!
It's one of my very rare blog traditions to reveal you our wooden tree on Christmas morning. After an intense year which included tons of Urban Jungle Bloggers fun, it was an obvious choice to dress the tree in little succulents. From newborn babies to toddlers grown from inherited plants, travel cuttings, succulent gifts, Ikea Read article…
Merry & Bright
There's not a single blogger I know that takes their own pictures who isn't complaining about the light in these dark days before Christmas. It's not ideal, but well… let's hope Christmas will be merry & bright! Our home is slowly getting dressed for Christmas, so I also wanted a new fresh poster on our Read article…
Paper snowflakes
It's one of these unwritten Dutch traditions to decorate your home for Christmas only after the Saint Nicholas celebrations. But my hands were itching last week (due to #UJBXMAS of course!) and I took out the lights, balls and Lego Advent calendar. And I kept my hands busy by cutting a few paper snowflakes and Read article…
Urban Jungle Bloggers #14
The days are so short this week that I almost considered taking these pictures in the middle of the night. It could have been a nice experiment, but well… I need my sleep 😉 In a cosy and green bedroom of course! After Igor and I decided upon this month's Urban Jungle Bloggers topic, I Read article…
Our bathroom renovation #3
Oh yeah! Another bathroom renovation update, because things are slowly starting to look like a real bathroom! The plumbing is done, the walls are up and we even have two little circle windows! I think they are the coolest feature yet, not only because I love circles but even more so because they keep our Read article…
Our new bathtub
By now I wish I could unveil our new bathroom to you, but it’s not nearly finished! We are working very hard to finalize the floors, tiling, painting, faucets… Believe me, I can’t wait to take the first shower in the new double shower. In our floorplan we didn’t include a bathtub (as you can Read article…
Urban Jungle Bloggers #12
This month's Urban Jungle Bloggers topic fits my current state of mind pretty well: back to school, plants on the workplace. It's been one busy month, but a very productive one too, here in my home office. Strangely enough I don't have many plants on my desk. Most of them don't like the northern light Read article…
Our bathroom renovation #2
More than two months after the first update, it's time to show you some new images of our bathroom. Unfortunately the renovation was paused for more than four weeks due to illness, but we're back on track! I really like that with the new walls we're now aware of the real volumes of the bathroom.

Our bathroom renovation #1
I almost can't believe our very temporary bathroom lasted for almost 10 years! It is so hideous that I never showed any images of it on my blog. Or wait, yes I did: as part of the ugly truth 😉 When we moved in, our bathroom was the first "project". The former ladies room of Read article…
