About Me

Hi there!

I'm Laura and I'm from Amsterdam.

Being creative makes me really happy, I can't think of anything nicer than crafting with a nice CD playing in the background while sipping from a neverending cup of tea.

I'm a blogger and an Etsian. I have a huge love for owls! And I love exploring the city with my camera on hand.

Finding something new is one of the most exciting things in the world to me, whether it's an artist, a musician, a store, a little notebook or a nice parcel in my mailbox.

Favorite Things

*Anything Japanese, from paper, stickers, tape and pens to clothes, jewelry and food. Zakka and Kawaii, I love it all! *Stationary, notebooks, washi tape... all that jazz. *Owls. But I also love hedgehogs and stranger creatures like tapirs and tarsiers. *Acorns, don't know why, they're just cute. *Jewelry, especially with birds/owls or miniature food, etc... *Matryoshkas *Vintage items. *Anything Frida Kahlo *Fairies *Moustaches

Favorite Movies

Juno, Wonderboys, Away We Go, 500 days of Summer, Elf, I Love You, Man; Frida, V for Vendetta, Nocturna, Amelie, Jesus Henry Christ and everything Studio Ghibli

Favorite Music

I love all sorts of music, but I mostly enjoy singer/songwriters and old jazz and soul.

Ella Fitzgerald, Otis Redding, Jimi Hendrix, CocoRosie, Regina Spektor, Jack Johnson, Andrew Bird, Kings of Convenience, Lisa Mitchell, the Weepies, Emiliana Torrini, Justin Nozuka, Corinne Bailey Rae, India Arie and Ray LaMontagne

Favorite Books

Special Topics in Calamity Physics, Middlesex, Old Magic, the Spiderwick Chronicles, Anything Murakami or David Sedaris

I also love graphic novels, such as V for Vendetta, Persepolis and the three comics by Ariel Schrag.

Favorite Colors

Teal, purple, grey/silver/taupe, mint green and pink and sky blue and peach

Favorite Crafts and Materials

Crocheting, Knitting, Spinning, Sewing, Painting, Drawing, Sketching. And I love to work with felt, yarn, beads, buttons, ribbons, oil paint, charcoal and ink.

Food and Drinks

I'm addicted to tea and probably drink 2 liters a day, I really enjoy baking and I absolutely love ginger!

Favorite Painters and Artists

I'm fond of lots of different painters and lots of different styles. I love low brow art and adore the work of Mark Ryden and Benjamin Lacombe. Frida Kahlo is one of my heroes, not just because of her art, although I love that too, but also because of her as a person and the stuggles she has overcome.

Please Do Not Send

*edibles, as I can't have lots of different foods due to allergies *anything too patriotic or (1 of the 50)states-themed, because I live in Europe *religious items
