a little bit of neon - the second bouquet
I used some very simple flowers this time, but they look really spectacular in my"air vase" from the Japanese designers Torafu Architects. this is a thin peace of paper that you can fold in the shape you like.




first bouquet of the week
sneak peek
rhapsody in blue
I don't only love peonies - no I also love delphiniums - the blue beauties. I had another improvised photo shooting in my kitchen yesterday after a visit so to the flower shop - with a little furry visitor. Let's see if you manage to spot him in the pictures. I love using different sizes of vases from very small to very big. I think the flowers look like they directly come out of a fairy tale - I think they look like the hat of a very little magician. But that's probably only my imagination...

Je n'ai pas qu'une passion pour les pivoines, j'adore aussi les delphiniums. J'ai encore organisé un photo shooting improvisé dans ma cuisine hier après une petite visite chez le fleuriste - et j'ai eu une petite visite de mon petit ami poilu. On va voir si vous arrivez à le repérer sur les photos. J'aime utiliser des vases de différentes tailles pour créer un décor. J'ai toujours l'impression que les fleurs de delphinium sortent directement d'un conte de fée - Je trouve qu'elles ressemblent au chapeau d'un tout petit magicien. Mais j'ai peut-être trop d'imagination...
peonies obsession
I know I've been posting quite a lot of peonies lately but for me it is one of the best things about springtime. I can't get tired of those beauties.Especially the pink ones which are yellow inside. So there you go - here are some new peonies directly from my kitchen. I think peonies are the perfect gift, when going to your friend's party. They look so unspectacular when they are still closed and so incredibly beautiful when they open up. The petals are so thin, that they almost look like silk. That's maybe the reason why I like them so much: They look like they directly come out of a very talented tailor's workshop.

Je sais que j'ai posté beaucoup de pivoines sur mon blog ces derniers temps, mais je ne peux pas m'en empêcher. Pour moi, c'est une une des raisons pour lesquelles j'adore le printemps. J'aime tout particulièrement les pivoines roses avec un pistil jaune fluo. Alors voilà: de nouvelles pivoines en direct de ma cuisine. Je pense que les pivoines sont le cadeau parfait à amener à vos amis, lors d'une fête. Elles ont l'air très banal quand elles sont encore en bouton et créent la surprise en s'ouvrant le lendemain matin. les pétales sont si fins qu'on dirait de la soie. C'est sans doute la raison pour laquelle j'adore les pivoines: On dirait qu'elles sortent directement de l'atelier d'un merveilleux tailleur.

nothing special, but just some delicate roses from the market combined with some peonies that I used yesterday for decorating my stand. The new week can start! I hope you enjoyed your week end as much as I did!



Küchenblume and flowers in my kitchen
So it is time for me to write a bit about my neighbourhood (Kiez in German).I live in a very beautiful part of Hamburg called Eppendorf. It is very green, full of little decoration shops and pretty cafés. In the Isestrasse, where the splendid Isemarkt (a very cool market) takes place twice a week, you will find my favorite flower shop in Hamburg: Küchenblume.
but you know me, I couldn't just have gone there, just to take some pictures...so now, I have some very pretty peonies in my kitchen. I love this season.

Black and white flowers
with a little bit of pink.I got this gorgeous flowers from the Isemarkt.
It is a composition of scabiosa, peonies and like I said in a previous post, I am not sure about the correct name of the white ones in English. Anyway, I like the arrangement so much, that I wanted to share it with. So, there you go:
