Mit første håndsyede iPhone etui ¦ My first hand sewn iPhone sleeve

20140714-224121-81681205.jpg

Tilbage i januar troede jeg, at jeg skulle sy mit første iPhone etui – men så kom jeg til at sy hjemmesyede “doodle and dream notebooks” i papir i stedet…

I mellemtiden har jeg fundet en masse skønt vintage stof i en genbrugsbutik, blandt andet Laura Ashley stof fra 1977 – og sammen med min skønne broderiskat har jeg nu en mere afdæmpet version i mine tanker end mit forrige moodboard

Denne vil jeg sy i hånden, og måske også brodere lidt undervejs – så jeg stadig kan sy i papir på min symaskine…

Jeg er spændt på at se, hvordan den kommer til at se ud, når den er syet færdig…

Kærlig hilsen Susanne ♥

PS. Jeg laver korte blogindlæg sommeren over for at kunne leve mest muligt i nuet – og væk fra computeren…

Back in January, I thought that I was going to make my first iPhone sleeve – but then I came to sew some home-made “doodle and dream notebooks” in paper instead…

In the meantime, I have found a lot of beautiful vintage fabrics at a thrift store, including Laura Ashley fabrics from 1977 – and with my beautiful embroidery treasure, I now have a more subdued version in my thoughts than my previous moodboard

This sleeve I will sew by hand, and perhaps also make some embroideries on it – so I’m still able to sew in paper on my sewing machine…

I’m so excited to see how it will look like when it’s finished…

Lots of love and happiness, Susanne ♥

PS. I make short blog posts during the summer to live as much as possible in the moment – and away from the computer…

Shopping tips til Amsterdam

Er kommet hjem fra vores sommerferie – efter 14 skønne dage i Frankrig, Belgien og senest Amsterdam i Holland.

Amsterdam var uden tvivl den største oplevelse for mig. Og phew, jeg fik shoppet igennem!

Jeg har skrevet flere blogindlæg om vores 48 timer i Amsterdam – dette blogindlæg er en samlet oversigt med mine rejsetips – hvis du selv har planer om at skulle af sted:

De 9 straatjes ♥

Har du mindre end 48 timer til rådighed, vil jeg absolut anbefale dig at starte i ‘De 9 straatjes‘ – der er både gear til mænd og kvinder – og masser af genbrugsbutikker og små trendy spisesteder.

Men ellers er alt inden for ret korte afstande, så det er bare med at have de gode gåsko på :)

Hvordan er dit favorit Amsterdam?

Kender du butikker eller steder i Amsterdam, jeg ikke har skrevet om, så læg endelig en kommentar, så jeg ved, hvad jeg også skal se efter, næste gang turen går til Amsterdam.

Kærlig hilsen Susanne ♥

Colorful power shopping in Amsterdam

Have returned from our summer vacation – after 14 wonderful days in France, Belgium and latest Amsterdam in Holland.

Amsterdam was without doubt the greatest experience for me. And phew, I really did some shopping!

Shopping tips for Amsterdam

I have written several blog posts about our 48 hours in Amsterdam – this blog entry is an overview of my travel tips – if you plan to go to Amsterdam:

De 9 straatjes ♥

If you have less than 48 hours available, I would definitely recommend you to start in ‘De 9 straatjes‘ – there is cool gear for both men and women – and lots of recycling shops and small trendy cafés.

But otherwise everything is within fairly short distances, so just bring your good walking shoes and walk on :)

How is your favorite Amsterdam?

Do you know stores or locations in Amsterdam, I have not written about, please leave a comment so I know what I also have to look for the next time I go to Amsterdam.

Lots of love and happiness, Susanne ♥

Hollænderne kan altså noget med papir, stempler, plakater og illustrationer!!!

Jeg har badet i eyecandy i 48 timer – og brugt små 1000 kr på at shoppe papir, magasiner, smykker, retroting og maskingtape fra følgende butikker:

Shopping guide for papirnørder og kreagrej plus det løse…:

  • Athenaeum Boekhandel‘, Spui 14-16: Internationale magasiner
  • Stormagasinet ‘de Bijenkorf‘, Dam 1: Pip Studio og det hollandske magasin Flow Magazine
  • De 9 straatjes‘ (De 9 gader): Smykker, postkort, illustrationer, retro, genbrug, kaffe
  • Vlieger‘, Amstel 34: Papir, papir, papir!!! (Rullet sammen fra store ark – lidt heldigt at være i bil, så det ikke krøller eller bliver bukket)
  • Posthumus‘, Sint Luciënsteeg 23-25: Stempler
  • Kitsch Kitshen‘, Rozengracht 8-12: Indisk kitsch
  • Hema‘, Nieuwendijk 174-176: Papirsposer, gavepapir, stempler, stempelpuder og maskingtape til uhyre lave priser. Genialt koncept!!! (Og softice til 50 cent)
  • Raw Materials‘, Rozengracht 229-231: Orange trashede husnumre
  • Wow To Go – Feel Good Fashion‘, Reestraat 18: Skønne blomstrede retrokrus (og de mest fantastiske flower power Yvonne-kjoler)

Dansk pop-up shop hos Lomography i Amsterdam

Selvom vi ikke lige købte et kamera, fik vi den længste snak og sødeste betjening i Lomography, Herengracht 298, der sælger Old school new School fotoapparater.

De har også en midlertidig pop-up shop med dansk kunsthåndværk, design og Bülow lakrids – og de sejeste notesbøger, rejseguider, chapbooks og scrapbooks for en papirfoto-nørd som mig…

Begrebet chapbook havde jeg aldrig hørt om før – det er dem, der er på dagens moodboard – i hollandsk orange, selvfølgelig!

Priser som i Danmark

Prisniveauet er stort set som i Danmark, så billig ferie er det ikke…

Vi boede forholdsvist billigt og centralt på Hotel Asterisk, Den Texstraat 16, tæt på det hippe kvarter De Pijp, hvor vi fik 2 overnatninger for 128 euro. Derfra var vi i gåafstand til alt i Amsterdam.

TAK til Instagram

Havde det ikke været for opdateringer og dialog via Instagram med to hollandske følgere @dinnisje og @gnoe, var jeg gået glip af papirforretningen ‘Vlieger‘ – som jeg vel nok brugte en hel time i – samt den enestående stempelbutik ‘Posthumus‘.

Elsker virkelig at være en del af det medie!!!!

TAK Amsterdam for 48 fantastiske timer!!!

TAK for 48 timer udnyttet til det yderste – tanket op med fotos, kreagrej og masser af inspiration.

Og tak til min dejlige kæreste for den største shopping tålmodighed ♥

Kærlig hilsen Susanne

Sweet memories from Amsterdam

The Dutch are really amazing with paper, stamps, posters and illustrations!

I have been overwhelmed with eyecandy for 48 hours – and spent around 1,000 DKR to shop paper, magazines, jewelry, retro stuff and maskingtape from the following stores:

Shopping guide for paper nerds and creative supply:

  • Athenaeum Boekhandel‘, Spui 14-16: International magazines
  • de Bijenkorf‘, Dam 1: Pip Studio and the Dutch magazine Flow Magazine
  • De 9 straatjes‘ (De 9 gader): Jewellery, postcards, illustrations, retro, recycling and coffee
  • Vlieger‘, Amstel 34: Paper, paper, paper!!!
  • Posthumus‘, Sint Luciënsteeg 23-25: Stamps
  • Kitsch Kitshen‘, Rozengracht 8-12: Indian kitsch
  • Hema‘, Nieuwendijk 174-176: Paper bags, wrapping paper, stamps and maskingtape for very low prices. Brilliant koncept!!! (And soft ice to 50 cent)
  • Raw Materials‘, Rozengracht 229-231: Orange trashed house numbers
  • Wow To Go – Feel Good Fashion‘, Reestraat 18: Retro mugs (and the most amazing flower power dresses)
  • Lucie’s‘, St Luciensteeg 22, and ‘Beadies‘, Huidenstraat 6: Jewellery and beads
  • Flower market‘, Singel 610-616: Flowers and bulbs

Danish pop-up shop at Lomography in Amsterdam

Although we didn’t buy a new camera, we got the longest chat and sweetest service in Lomography, Herengracht 298, selling Old school New school cameras.

They also have a temporary pop-up shop with Danish crafts and design – and the coolest notebooks, travel guides, chap books and scrap books for a paper photo geek like me…

I had never heard of the term chap book before – they are the ones that are on the mood board – in Dutch orange, of course!

Prices as in Denmark

The price level is basically the same as in Denmark, so it isn’t a cheap holiday…

We stayed relatively cheap and centrally located on Hotel Asterisk, the Texstraat 16, close to the trendy De Pijp quarter where we got 2 nights for 128 euros. From there we were in walking distance to everything in Amsterdam.

THANKS to Instagram

Had it not been for updates and dialogue via Instagram with two Dutch followers @dinnisje and @gnoe, I have missed the paper shop ‘Vlieger‘ – which I probably spent an hour in – as well as the unique stamp shop ‘Posthumus‘.

I really love being a part of that media!!

THANKS Amsterdam for 48 amazing hours!

Thank you for 48 hours utilized to the utmost – filled up with photos, creative supply and lots of inspiration.

And thanks to my lovely boyfriend for the most amazing shopping patience ♥ ♥ ♥

Lots of love and happiness, Susanne ♥
