Hello Loves!

We adore mornings, we love the idea of having a fresh start every day. However, week day mornings can be a bit hasty for us. That is why we like to have at least one morning free every week to enjoy it as much as we can. This morning almost always falls on Sunday and we have found ourselves creating a routine for it. Thus, here is our Sunday morning routine: Continue reading

However, that doesn’t mean that we cannot change the tides and try to save it. Here are 5 little ways to help our planet which you can hopefully (easily) incorporate into your life. Continue reading

Three self-help books that have actually helped us

 

 

Every book you pick up has its own lesson or lessons, and quite often the bad books have more to teach than the good ones.

Hello Loves!

It’s been a hot minute since we’ve written anything here. But we are back. Today we’ve got three self-help books for you that have actually helped us. Now to be fair, we were (and still are) a bit sceptical about the term “self-help books.” In our opinion any book can be a self-help book, as long as it helps you and maybe teaches you something. However these books that are already connected to the term “self-help” have opened our eyes more than we ever expected when we started reading them. Hence, why we wanted to share them with you.

TeaChats ep. 1

 

We learn from failure,
not from succes.

Hello people!

Everyday we discover new things, things that aren’t necessarily new to other people, but, they are new to us. Things, such as, how beautiful a word can be or how much energy the sun can give us. They are often silly little things, nevertheless very significant for our lives. We do like to talk about these subjects, hence why we came up with this new concept called TeaChats. During TeaChats we will write, whilst sipping tea, about certain topics that we find interesting, or that we recently discovered, anyway topics we feel like writing about.  Continue reading

Dear people,

Christmas is a time of giving people presents. And something we might enjoy even more than buying the presents and giving them, is the wrapping of the gifts. We always try to wrap every gift as fun and cute as possible. We tend to put a lot of effort in our wrappings, however, we do know that it can be very difficult to come up with some ideas for it. Here are the elements that we use to wrap our gifts during Christmas.  Continue reading

A documented life

Dear all,

Capturing moments is one of our favourite things to do.  We love writing down quotes which remind us of certain moments in our lives, or finding old pieces of art which we made when we were little, or looking back at old videos or photographs which take us back to some of the most hilarious moments. We are not ashamed to say that we are very sentimental persons and are really attached to all these memories. Continue reading
