i love, we all love, mieke willems


i really like how mieke and veronik say they like to wear socks in sandals. and that my favourite story-maker renilde also makes things for their store. and that they document things they both have. and i really like how i can see many of my favourite versions of japan in their wonderful world: a special aesthetic that is full of care and humble beauty, handkerchiefs, the paper balloons, origami books, figue plants, beautiful teacups and lovely handmade-ness.

and i really like how everyone else loves them too: see here for the
hello sandwich post.

ps:

this post on houseofmilk just made me laugh.
and if you are in melbourne this saturday, perhaps you might consider attending this soiree.

  4. Great shop! I would love to visit.

    I notice "mur mur"on your reading matter. I have seen it on 恵文社 website. Do you like it? It is hard to buy books online since I can not see inside but from the discription, i have a feeling I would like it. I should wait until next month and go to 恵文社 though.
