See You Soon! (I Hope)

2020 Spring Hope Look Mangomini

This is the spring I wish we were having. All this being stuck at home, mostly in sweatpants, is making me want to draw pretty clothes. I saw this skirt on Riviera Retro‘s Instagram Page and it just made me happy! Maybe I should treat myself? Hmmm🤔 Anyway, I hope this drawing of it brings you a little bit of happiness as well. Stay safe and stay positive! ⁠Things will get better again.⁠💚

Take Care, Stay Safe!

Self Care Practise Ideas During Lockdown

Third week of being stuck at home. I hope you are all doing OK. Take good care and stay safe! ⁠♥♥♥♥ This is a drawing of what I try to do as a self care routine, slightly updated for the current Covid situation.

I have this illustration available on Etsy as a limited edition downloadable print and as a postcard. Your support is very much appreciated! ♥ If you like this you can also follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for regular updates like this.

Support Small & Local

Here are some ways to support your favorite (local) small businesses, so that they’ll still be around by the time everything goes back to “normal”. ⁠
See if you can order online, if they deliver or have a take-out option. You can also buy a gift card to spend later. Let them know that you care!⁠ 💚

Artists like me are also small business owners and we need your support as well. Selling my cards in shops is one of my main sources of income. Since most shops are now closed, that means no new card orders. Luckily my Etsy shop is still open as usual and one of the easiest way to support me right now is to place a small (or big!) order. I’ve also installed a donations button on my home page.

Also, if you want to share an artist’s work online: always clearly credit and never edit, and if you’re a company: ask permission first. Thank you! Stay healthy and take care!

Take Care! (Corona Virus Update)

2020 Take Care Corona Update Mangomini

Self Care Plan During Covid, In Drawings.

Self-care in times of Corona virus. This is an updated version of my autumn/winter self-care card, because the virus is forcing us to do certain things a little bit differently. (I’ve never washed my hands so often and also realised that I love touching my face!) This week I’ve been feeling quite worried and sad but I’m going to take my own illustrated advice and use the extra time inside for some quality ‘me-time’.⁠
Take care! ⁠♥♥♥♥

Want More Hand Drawn Inspiration?

Basic Houseplant Care, In Drawings.

Plant Lady Skills, An Illustrated Guide.

As you might have noticed in my illustrations, I’m becoming more and more of a plant lady! Because the number of plants that I own has grown so much, I needed to improve my “keeping-my-plants-alive” skills. I’ve learned a lot from watching videos on YouTube. I’m still not an expert by far, but I did sum up the basics of houseplant care in this drawing. I hope you find it useful.

In case you’re interested: my two favorite places for plant advise are Mama Botanica and Planterina. I’ve learned so much from them. For example: I had no idea I had to clean my plants! I also loved the tip about turning your plants a little bit (if possible) when you water them, to keep them growing nice and full.⁠

Self Care Plan For 2020, In Drawings.

Take Care in the New Year, Illustrated Inspiration.

Take good care in 2020, of yourself and of those around you. Wishing everyone all the best for the new year ♥

I have this self care reminder card available on Etsy. It’s not so easy to always get all of the things on there right, I know this very well myself. But hopefully it can inspire you in some way, even if it’s just to do one good thing for yourself today. For me, it’s listening to Ben Howard on “eternal-shuffle-mode” at the moment.
