marlous' world :: color and love

Hello!

I found the wonderful world of Marlous, of Planet Fur, yesterday.  Marlous is a sweet, sweet artist from Utrecht, the Netherlands, and that is her awesome blue 1950s petticoat you see above (how cool is that?).  She kindly allowed me to share some of her work and home with you, and that rocks, because I am so in love with everything she does...

We'll start with what she makes, first.  Check out these sweet and so endearing felt animal heads!  Such a lovely take on the awful tradition of real heads, don't you think?  I can just see these little guys winking, as if to say, "Don't worry!  We were made for this!"

Marlous has a sweet little shop, called Planet Fur, where she sells her goods;  you'll surely want to visit and say hello...

And look at these little British flags made of felt!  I love them:

And these two deer for wedding decorations!  So sweet!

So, there's that, her awesome little shop of love.  But then, look at these beautiful pics of her home! 

 
 
It's wonderful, and yet still so strange, to feel like I have so much in common with someone who lives all the way around the world:  she clearly loves color, and crafting, and sweet vintage finds...Don't we all, who visit this blog?!  The internet is truly amazing.  To find inspiration like this, from someone I will surely never meet, what a wonderful thing...It makes me so happy.

Also making me happy is Marlous' blog where she shares her latest news and the things she finds inspiring.  (And so it goes on and on...!)  And don't miss her flickr and shop, too! 

Thanks, Marlous, for allowing us this peek into your world.  I truly love it.

Cheers, all!
