Spotlight: Vintage Kitchen accessories from relique

{my favorite vintage items from relique: 1. seltzer bottle 2. rosette irons 3. jade mixing bowl 4. wire basket 5. scale 6. midcentury plate 7. picnic ice box} 

Do you have any vintage accessories in your kitchen?

I do! And although my kitchen is no way near looking as nice as the kitchen below, I do try to give my vintage accesoiries the same decoration and display feel as in these beautiful images.

Not sure where you can find lovely things from a previous life ... start right here at relique. They carry a huge selection vintage and repurposed interior items.

.. Relique

Monday's quick start: By Molle

A new shop in town ... online that is ... By Mölle carries a collection beautiful pieces that are totally up Bloesem's alley.

Mölle means 'mill' in a certain Dutch dialect not far from where I grew up... and an old mill is also the home and showroom of 'By Mölle'. Sisters Eveline and Marianne Maat are the founders and I wish them all the luck and success in the world!

Black Kitchens

While working on a styling job I was doing some research on kitchens ... should you go for white, colored or black ... today I show you my favorite black ones ... but just choosing the color is just a first step ... if you were to decide on black would you go for matte, gloss, wood, veneer or else ...

Taped coffee cups

Some taped cups for you today in all the colors from the rainbow ... which color would you choose for your home ... normally I am not so much a but this picture above makes me wonder if I should try and ad some color to my kitchen wardrobe ...

The Taped cups are by Studio PS, a design studio based in The Netherlands. They focus on both product design and interior architecture.      [MORE IMAGES BELOW]

Visje Bij De Thee

Everything you see in these pictures is for sale at a lovely new online shop called Visje bij de Thee = 'little fish with tea' ... a perculiar name I know but in dutch it sounds quite nice :)

Stylist Iris Rietbergen who founded Visje bij de Thee created a sweet and romantic world. I have fallen in love with the beautiful bird wallpaper. And I like how Iris dared to combine thsi already very busy patteren with more patterns from skinnylaminx ... great idea and makes me want to try doing this at home too.... no need to always keep it plain and simple .. do you like combining colors and patterns like this?     [READ AND SEE MORE]

Washi collection

 

a collection perfect for washi tape lovers ... I know many of you really like everything masking tape ... so how about the new collection from mrs. eliot books ... I rather like it :) ! The cushion above is my favorite, but a iphone cover is very lovely too ... I have been a fan of mrs eliot for a long time and it is just great to see her collection expand ...
