Make Your Life Gezellig with… science

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

I was cleaning out a cabinet when I found a folder full of random magazine pages. Most of the pages were apartment decoration ideas when I was going through a phase where I thought I’d actually ever do anything like that.
Anyway, one of the pages had photos of stuff like this:

You’ll have to envision […]

The first time ever I saw your dinnerware…

Monday, March 5th, 2007

So, there I was; pushing my kid in her stroller, headed down Broadway, from my husband’s office, heading towards Union Square.
And then I saw it. Fishs Eddy.
I stopped dead in my tracks and pressed my face to the window like an old-timey street urchin, gaping at wonders, well, like these:

When I snapped out of my […]

Make Your Life Gezellig With Little Flower Designs

Monday, February 26th, 2007

It’s Monday. Even though I overslept this morning, I’m still wiped out from last night’s Oscar revelry. It’s snowing. Sort of.
All I want to do today is browse through the delightful Little Flower Designs and imagine a world in which I would be okay with spending $40 on a sweet little bowl my husband would […]

Make Your Life Gezellig with Skookum Handmade

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

I sat down to write this post mostly as a way to show off this cutting board I just bought.

Nice, isn’t it?
It’s from Skookum Handmade, a brand-new Etsy shop. In an effort to make this a real post (and not just me bragging about latest Etsy score), I asked Justin, its proprietor and a Seattle-area […]

I think I’m in love.

Sweet, translucent, blue plastic love.
Meet the Cupcake Courier.

It’s crazy gigantic, but it holds three dozen standard cupcakes, or you can remove the trays and use it as a cake carrier.
The Cupcake Courier could make me rethink my plans to homeschool the kid — just so I could use this baby more often.

Gezellig Girl regrets the error.

As it turns out, margobianca (featured in yesterday’s Make Your Life Gezellig) does not charge anything extra for a customized order. So, if you want a table runner in pink and chartreuse to match your favorite chair, it’ll still only run you $15.
Sorry about that!

Make Your Life Gezellig with Margotbianca

I’ve been holding on to this link for a while now because, frankly, these hand-printed batik linens are so lovely I didn’t want to share them.
Oh, Kristen, I hear you sighing, batik? Isn’t that for stanky unwashed hippies? Well, yes, it usually is — but not this batik. Have a look:

Once again: relatives, please look away.

As I am about to detail what sort of Christmas cookies I’m making for my mom and sisters this year under this cut here:

Mondays give me teh stupids.

Monday, November 27th, 2006

I should just officially designate Mondays as my hey, come look at this thing I found so I don’t have to write a real blog post day. I don’t know what it is, but it takes me forever to get it in gear on Mondays.
Anyway — hey, come look at this cool thing I found!

Make Your Life… Kawaii

Monday, November 20th, 2006

Gezellig Girl Fun Fact: I admit, I am a Japanophile. Not a full-on otaku, but I do have more interest than most 32 year-old American housewives.
So, when I was doing some late-night JBox.com shopping yesterday and came across these new additions to their stock, I’m pretty sure I squealed.

Jiji! And Totoro! On aprons! My […]
