Hello February! (In Drawings)

Cozy Winter Mood At Home, Illustrated.

Hello February! I always love the start of a new month to make plans and think of ways to make the most of that particular month.

For February it’s all about creating coziness at home. When it’s raining and dark outside I love to chill inside with candles, snacks, a glass of wine, a good book or a nice show to watch under a warm blanket. I also give my plants a little extra attention, because some of them are struggling from the lack of light and the cold. What do you like to do in February?

PS. This illustration is from my 2023 Wall Calendar. I still have a few copies available on Etsy, now with 25% discount.

2022 Hello February Cindy Mangomini blog

February Style Inspiration, Illustrated.

Hello February! I always love the start of a new month to make plans, set goals and think of ways to make the most of that particular month.

For February it’s all about creating coziness inside, while getting as much daylight as possible and enjoying the rare sunny days to the fullest. It’s also a month to give my plants extra attention, because some of them are struggling from the lack of light. What are your plans for this month?

This illustration is an updated version of one of my wall calendar’s February pages. Sadly I didn’t have time to make one for this year, but keep an eye out for the 2023 calendar later this year.

Take a look here and here for my February pages from previous years.

Hello February! (In Drawings)

February Style Inspiration, Illustrated.

A new month still means a new calendar page, even though this page will probably stay pretty empty since we’re still in lockdown here. I guess I could start marking what I watched on Netflix on it…🤔

Hopefully by the end of this month things will have changed for the better and I can finally start filling up this calendar. In the meantime I will just make the best of it and enjoy a lot of chilling at home time.💚 Do you have exciting plans for February or are you also still stuck at home?⁠

January Favourites, In Drawings.

My January Favourites, Illustrated Recap.

As you might be able to tell from this illustration, despite the lockdown and an evening clock here in the Netherlands, my January has been pretty OK and much better than my December.

Why? Let’s see:⁠
– Getting my Vitamin D with regular muddy hikes in good company⁠
– New music and an album coming soon from Ben Howard⁠
-‘Conan O’brien needs a friend’ makes me laugh so much every week.⁠
– I did 2 (very) cold water dives in the river and felt SO good afterwards⁠
– A lovely sunny trip to the island of Brrrrr with Andrei⁠
– A lot of chilling at home, cooking, reading, dancing, Netflix, etc with zero FOMO⁠

How was your start of 2021? ⁠💚

Hello January!

Happy New Year!

November is almost over, so time for an illustrated recap of what I wore most a.k.a. my November favourites. The last part of this month has been cold, so I’ve been keeping warm in some new (coat) but mostly old favourites.
