Let’s Cuddle Up, Illustrated.

National Cuddle Up Day, In Drawings

It’s National Cuddle Up Day today and I’ve updated one of my Best Nine illustrations of 2020 with this day in mind.
The Dutch weather is perfect for cuddling up under a blanket at the moment, it’s so cold! So, put on something warm & comfy (2020 has been the year I embraced sweatpants!) and cuddle up. If you don’t have anyone to cuddle with, remember that plant love is also real love. I REALLY love my plants, so who’s to say that my plants don’t also really love me?? I choose to believe they do, haha. Oh, and also: real cuddles will be making a comeback soon!⁠ Have a nice day!⁠

If this drawing is giving you all sorts of happy and cozy feelings, I have a very similar illustration available on a postcard on Etsy.

Hello Winter!

Today is the first official day of winter (on the Northern hemisphere that is). And although this one will be a little (or a lot) different from other years, there’s still so much to enjoy. For starters: the days will start to get longer again, hurray!! And what about candles, cozy knitwear, yummy comfort food and long winter walks followed by hot drinks? (Mulled wine is my favourite!) Winter can also be a time to recharge, find new inspiration and make plans. Are you as excited for the start of winter as I am? I would love to hear it and why.

Hej! Scandinavian Style, Illustrated.

Scandinavian Winter Style, In Drawings.

Scandinavian-winter-style-inspired illustration, because French style is not the only style I’m obsessed with.⁠.

I love the simple, practical yet elegant fashion that Scandinavians are known for. They really know how to dress well for the cold. I often think of their famous saying: “There is no bad weather, only bad clothes” when I feel like staying inside because of bad weather. It really motivates me to go outside anyway.

Looking For More Hand Drawn Happiness?

I’m selling a few original drawings, in A4 and A5 size. I have them available in my Etsy shop.

Hello February, In Drawings.

February Mood, Illustrated.

Hello February! A new month always means a new calendar page illustration. This month’s drawing is filled with cold weather fashion and food elements, perfect for a cozy, wintery mood.

It’s from my 2020 wall calendar. If you’re quick you can still get one of the very last copies on Etsy, now with discount of course. My big winter sale, where I have 20% off EVERYTHING will end on February 4th.

Hello January!

I hope you’re having an awesome January so far. I’m recovering from the flu and using the time to think about my plans and goals for 2020. A new year is perfect for a fresh start. That’s why I’m having a BIG WINTER SALE on ETSY, with 20% discount on almost all items.
This illustration is from my 2020 wall calendar. I still have some available on Etsy, now also with 20% discount!

Hello Winter!

Happy First Day Of Winter!

Today is the first day of winter (if you’re in the Northern hemisphere like me). Soon the days will start to get longer again, but until then I love candles and the pretty Christmas lights everywhere. I also love game nights with mulled wine, staying in and keeping warm with a hot water bottle, drinking tea and reading a book or having a Netflix night. I will try to go outside a lot to go ice skating for example, or have a nice winter walk, preferably in a snow covered landscape (followed by more mulled wine of course 😉 )

I hope this drawing gets you in a happy winter mood! What are some of the things that you love about winter?

Hello 2019!

Reasons Why January Is The Best Month!

Happy New Year!! I love January because it marks a fresh start full of new ideas, adventures, plans and goals. In 2019 I want to continue to live a more minimalistic life with less stuff and less waste. I want to stay creative and productive, learn some new skills, travel, read more books and stay healthy. And I also want to enjoy myself while doing all these things of course! What are your plans/ goals for the new year?

This illustration is filled with happy, healthy and positive new year’s vibes. If you like it you can follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for regular updates or shop my illustrated postcards and other papergoods on Etsy.
