We're so happy to finally announce the launch of Bloesem.co - our new portfolio website! This is our own little secret project that the team has been working really hard on for about a year now, so we're stoked to finally be able to share it..
As Bloesem slowly expands, we have had wonderful opportunities to take on more projects and clients, Bloesem.co makes sense as the next step as a consolidated platform to showcase all of them. (Some of you may have remembered Bloesem.co as our old page for the Bloesem Shop, but we have since moved it to this page.)
Have been wondering what exactly Bloesem does? Hop on over to our new site and get to know us a little bit better.. Or if you're interested in collaborating with the Bloesem Team, it's the perfect place and check out the services we provide and our past projects with various clients.. some examples would include our recent work with TANGS, Etsy and Bosch.
Psst.. many of our partners such as Cuckoo, Le Petit Society and FP juice are also going to be the at the Stock Up! Christmas market with us this Friday and Saturday, so why not come join us and have a chat?
A huge thank you to the people whom we've had the amazing chance of working with so far. We're definitely looking forward to future opportunities to work with more of you bunch! Now go on, give Bloesem.co a visit.. we're really proud of it and we hope you like it too!

There are little things better than cosying up during the kind of rainy weather we've been experiencing.. Koeka, which originated as a clothing brand from Netherlands, offers a new line of Home accessories that includes the softest collection of throws, bedding and even cushion covers, and they truly make cosy time a dream! The products come in comfortable, muted colours so you can mix-and-match endlessly and integrate them into your home.
Now, if only somebody could tell us how to get enough of some extra snug during this Monsoon season..

Cassina's Cicognino Side Table ; HAY j104 wooden chair
Before you go off and think I made a huge splurge on these furniture pieces, these beautiful accessories are just on loan from our friends at DREAM.. just to play dress up with. Their collection will blow your mind and also transform your home.. I borrowed some of my favourite pieces to style in my living room and now it's become a big problem.. I can't seem to let them go!
But on a serious note.. with the upcoming Stock Up! Christmas Market we will be organizing in collaboration with DREAM (more on that this week and on the Event page) you will be able to enjoy up to 70% off selected pieces from their collection. I've visited the showroom several times this week while we prepare and discuss final details for the event.. of course I kept an eye out for pieces I'd like in my own home too..
Come down on 4th or 5th December for our Stock Up! Christmas Market and get your pick of from DREAM's furniture sale.

It's here, it's here!Bloesem Gazette Volume 5 is here. Every-time we publish a new issue of the Bloesem Gazette we get all hyped up and excited but this time our excitement level is through the roof. Let's break down the thrilling bits of this issue:
1. It's the Holiday Season and this special issue of the Gazette comes with a whopping 20-page Gift Guide. Our very first printed edition of our annual gift guide..
2. Bloesem Gazette Volume 5 touches on all our favourite topics: Styling, craft, design, fashion, beauty, food and travel.
3. We invited 42 contributors from all over the world (we bet you'll recognise a few names) to share some wise words.
4. Of course it was next to impossible to fit everything we discussed with our contributors in one gazette, so look out for full length interviews and many more amazing visuals in the weeks to come!
As usual there's a long list of people that we would like to thank for being a part of this issue.. both our contributors and of course our sponsors for supporting our passion project! A special thank you to Frieda Mellema, who's artwork we used as a backdrop while shooting the cover for the Bloesem Gazette. Her work is an inspiration!
If you haven't already had a cheeky read, please do have a look.. we promise you won't be disappointed. We put our hearts and souls into creating every issue of the Gazette and we hope you enjoy every one of them.. and if you are residing in Singapore, we would love to indulge you in a printed copy of the Bloesem Gazette which we have distributed to cafes and hotspots across Singapore. (Check our Facebook and instagram for the list of locations) ..& if you take a photo of the Gazette remember to tag us on instagram and #bloesemgazette! We'd love to see it..
