Obsessives: Soda Pop

As a visual person I prefer video above reading. So these Chow Obsessive video’s are a treat for me, especially since they are about food, passion and craft. Check out this one about a guy who runs a soda pop shop, he as 500+ different ones.

ugly bonbon stand gone washi

What to do with an ugly bonbon stand (christmas gift) that missed the ride to the trash. I’ve spunked it up with some washi tape and now it’s a nice stand for erasers, paperclips etc.

prettiest apron ever

Baking and keeping clean is not my piece of cake. I do have an apron, but not as pretty as this one. COOKie is a Polish brand that sells the prettiest aprons I’ve ever seen. This one is called Lukrecja and it costs about 65 euro’s. It’s also available in a pretty flower print, white or yellow.

Old Faithful Shop

If you ever visit Vancouver Canada, be sure to check out Old Faithful Shop. They have a very nice collection of good quality goods for simple, everyday living. “We are drawn to products that are well-made, classic in design and when possible hand-crafted by a human being. We feel that the best products are the ones that age well and stand the test of time – items that will exist long after we do not.” And as a bonus they have a cute dog that lives in the shop.
