This time of the year is always a little bit special. In September it's la rentrée (back to school/work/life in France) which is usually extra busy but September has also proven to be a month full of unexpected personal adventures for the past two decades. I have no idea what this month has in store Read article…

Flowers for Inga
One things that I love most about blogging is getting to know all kinds of new people. Creative folks you follow from afar, people that make things happen, like-minded people that sometimes turn into new friends… And when someone who made things that you loved happen disappears, it's so so sad. Last week I found Read article…
Gradient Hydrangea
Even though our home is such a mess because of the bathroom renovation, I'm trying to keep up with the flowers at home. The #2flowergirls challenges by Elodie & Inga really helped me to get over the no-flowers-at-home itch. And our cats seem to be fine with it too. They haven't nibbled on these hydrangea… Read article…
2 Anemone girls
It has been a while but #2flowergirls is back! This flower challenge by Elodie & Inga is always so much fun and really challenges me to play around with flowers. And it's also very nice to see all the other contributions on Pinterest. As you can see above, our cats are never far when I Read article…
My favorite flowers of 2013
In 2013 I re-discovered the joy of having flowers at home, not in the last place through the fun monthly challenge by Elodie and Inga called #2flowergirls. Having flowers at home is always a little challenging with our flower eating cats, but it was worth the effort: Colorful Gradient Berries /// Pretty dahlias for flower Read article…
Win a set of my cards!
In 2013 I tried my best to send a little more snail mail. Opening your mailbox to find something else than publicity and bills is so nice, isn't it? In a few weeks my family will be sending our New Year's photo and we're currently in the middle of finding a new concept. Sending cards Read article…
2 Dahlia girls
My grandmother had dahlias in her garden (click here for a peek) and I think that's the only memory I have of these flowers. As a little girl I liked the colors but not their spikey petals. Through the #2flowergirls project I rediscovered them, not far from our home in one of the community gardens. Read article…
Summer Flowers for Countlan mag
In stead of showing you some garden roses for this month's #2flowergirls challenge, I'll present you some summer flowers I recently photographed for Countlan magazine. The idea was to show the vision of summer through floral arrangements by different florists from around the globe. Upon recommendation of Elodie I visited florist Loïc from Argevil in Read article…
2 Peony Girls
Last week I headed to Compiègne for a photo shoot at a florist called Argevil. While I was taking pictures of some very pretty summer flowers (and chatting with the adorable owner Loïc), I couldn't help but capture these peonies for this month's #2flowergirls challenge. The shape of these particular peonies are so delicate and Read article…
2 Popcorn Girls
Maybe I'm starting this tradition of bending the rules: last month for the first #2flowergirls tag I used daffodils in stead of ranunculus. And today I'm showing you the requested flowers, hydrangeas, but I didn't photograph them at home. Actually I didn't find fresh cut hortensias near my place and even in Paris they only Read article…
