yesterday was special since it was mother's day. i made a card and bought a little something for 
my mom. we took a walk to the weekend market where i found these funny moustache-men-egg-cups 
and two red coffee cups. have to find a good spot for them in my kitchen..

sci-fi & pez




Rönnells is a second-hand bookshop in Stockholm that I sometimes visit. At the moment they 
have a fun collection of sci-fi books in their window display - the book covers are amazing! I wish 
I could have the  R2-D2 Pez dispenser.. The bottom pic shows some cool vintage dispensers I found 
on PEZ website

royal wedding


a magazine asked me to illustrate the swedish princess Victoria and her fiancé Daniel for an article 
about their future. they are getting married on june 19th so there is a lot of preparation going in in 
stockholm at the moment. the magazine comes out on june 12th.
