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.

swedish delights there so make sure to visit next time you're in london! the mugs are made by designers
anonymous. view their work here
