Just wrote a post about TimeCapsules at BKids ... a new BEST present created by Dutch product desginer Anouk van der El and graphic designers Mae Engelgeer and Marloes Sijm.
More info over at BloesemKids or at TimeCapsules.
My dear friend Jurianne Matter re-invented her first and very succesfull product, the paper wish-boats by giving them a gorgeous new pattern and color palette.
The little paper boats are designed to sail out to celebrate weddings, newborn babies, birthdays, anniversaries or sometimes even as treasure ships (with money or candies). With a bit of inventiveness you can also make a unique paper chain or a mobile for a child’s room!
Before you start folding, you can write a personal wish or message along the railing. The folding takes only a few minutes per boat. [MORE IMAGES]

You might have seen these images over at Decor8 last week ... Holly was so super kind to introduce Nala design and my first official styling job to her readers.
Just before Christmas a photo shoot took place in my home here in Kuala Lumpur for Nala Design, a stationery and home decor line from Malaysia founded by my friend Lisette Scheers.
It was a fun day and I have to give a special thanks to Tian Xing and Sammie from Show Up Pictures, they are fantastic to work with and I would definetly hire them for any photography job.
Hope you don't mind me letting you be with just the images today ....and I do hope you visit Nala's webshop.

Hello everyone! Every new year I feel brings a fresh start. Why is that? I want to have new stationary, new clothes and a new set of mind to do things better than 2012. Let's start with new calendars. Believe me, you need the perfect one to look at everyday for a year. These are some of our favorites here at Bloesem. A clean simple one for my wall with lots of space for me to doodle on would be my choice. After the year ends, you can look back at all the things you've done for the year.
The many different ways to illustrate a moustache by Blush Face. I find this simple and funny and would definitely make a great gift for the moustache in the family.
Kissanpäivät's simple illustrated 2013 calendar. What I love about this one are the colors. Blue, teal and turquoise have always been my favorites.
On to the next page for more of Bloesem's pick for 2013.
