Every year I bought an advent calendar at the supermarket. A cheap paper one with small chocolates inside. This year I couldn’t find them at the store because apparently they found something toxic in the paper. So I decided to make one myself. I had to make 24 small envelopes but it looks better than the ones from the supermarket and the chocolates I put inside are way better!

Another week of inspiration on pinterest

Found on Society6. A website where you can buy artwork from artists around the world. As an artist you can just upload your work, so don’t need to print it beforehand because Society6 will do that for you when someone orders something.

Adventkalender
1 december is not for away so I’m gathering ideas to make an advent calendar. Usually I bought one with chocolates inside but they’re not for sale anymore this year because apparently they found some toxics in the packaging..

Last saturday I went to make photos at North Empire Fest: a punkfestival which took place in De Bakkerij in Castricum. Here’s a selection, you can see the whole series on flickr.

Two weeks ago I want to Brussel to visit two of my friends who moved there because of their studies. I left my digital camera at home but took some plastic film cameras instead so I could have a good time and enjoy exploring Brussel with my friends rather than focussing on taking nice pictures. So I took a Holga camera with me with and an expired disposable camera and made photos of random things.

The holga photos:

These paintings by Jeremy Geddes almost look like photos. Have a look on his website or his blog which shows more work than his website.
