New in my shop!

Less stuff A6 Etsy Mangomini1

New in my Etsy shop: Less stuff, more adventure postcard!

Are you inspired by the minimalism movement, dream of living in a tiny house, travelling more or obsessed with Marie Kondo? I’ve been trying to live a more minimalistic life, reduce my waste and focus more on experiences rather than on things. So less stuff and more adventures. Isn’t buying this card also buying more stuff? Well, in a way yes, but I keep it on my wall to remind myself of this goal and it helps me to stay focussed and motivated, maybe it can do the same for you 😉

Happy Cherry Pie Day!

Happy Cherry Pie day! What better way to celebrate this special day then with a quote from the world’s most famous cherry pie lover, Agent Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks? (And with a slice of cherry pie, of course.)⁣⁣

Warm Sweater Day

 

warm sweater day mangomini instaToday is Warm Sweater Day, a Dutch national initiative that draws attention to saving energy. If we all become more aware of the energy that we use, we can help protect the environment. So today (and why not every day?) turn down the heating a little, put on your favourite warm sweater and save energy. Extra points for wearing a vintage sweater! 😉 #warmetruiendag

When life gives you lemons..

2019 favourites Mangomini

When life gives you lemons, you better find a good way to use those lemons! Like in your illustrations or in a nice cocktail (or both!) These are some of my 2019 favourites, so far.

Get well soup… I mean soon!

Homemade soup day Mangomini broth bar

Happy homemade soup day! With the cold winter weather and so many people down with a cold or flu, it’s a perfect day for some healthy and tasty homemade soup. I made these “Get well soup” cards especially for The Broth Bar in Maastricht. They serve delicious, organic, healthy, home made broth and soup (also to-go) for when you don’t have time to make it yourself. Lots of gluten free and vegan options too!

Hello February, Illustrated.

A Vintage Winter Mood For February, In Drawings Of Course!

Can you believe it’s already February?! Me neither, but it really is, so time to turn my calendar to a new page. This month illustration has a vintage winter fashion vibe. I actually own everything in this outfit, except the glasses. They are all personal vintage fashion finds,(I love to shop vintage) paired with tea and chocolate because, well.. why not?

If you like this drawing I have two very similar cards available on Etsy with the same vintage fashion vibes here and here.

Perfect weather… to stay inside!

Although I always have every intention to go outside, no matter what the weather is like, in reality I find the cold winter temperatures to be a perfect excuse to chill inside and not leave my house. Luckily I have a lot of nice things to draw there as well. (Illustration available as prints and greeting cards in my Etsy shop!)
