Via @mieke.lannoey “Leef licht. Moeiteloos is beter. Lach tot de tranen over je wangen rollen. Ontspan. Vertrouw. Adem. Wees jezelf. Beleef avonturen. Neem het leven minder serieus. Maak tijd voor de essentie. Houd geen scores bij. Geniet, geniet nog meer. Schrap het woord “moeten”. Kom uit je hoofd. Voel. Maak plezier. Leef elke dag alsof het je eerste en laatste is. Richt je aandacht op dankbaarheid. Ga op zoek naar wonderen. Ga op zoek naar wonderen. Wees mild voor jezelf. Vergeet alles wat je geleerd heb. Ontdek je eigen waarheid. Beleef vrijheid”.
Last week I was a weekend with 6 friends of the #consciouswomensociety and after two days the three M’s stayed and the rest had to leave. We talked a lot about our lifes and dreams. I still feel gratitude but also feel the need to make things and life smaller and more clear. After much talking and the most honest questions there is a sense of a deep feeling that I have the key in my hand. But I was not sure if I could open the lock. I was afraid to break something. Often life is much more simple than I think it is. I know what I really want to do, I just don’t know how to “sell” it. I don’t want to do anymore masterclasses or read books about how to earn money, think about customers roadmaps, how to do online marketing. I want to dye with whats around me and make whatever I want with all the delicious materials I have in our studio. I want to make my life my masterpiece. Today I show you my little #dyekitchen My bigger pots are in the garden now. Today I decided to start my #tannin project in the most simple way. I decided that because tannins are antibacterial they are a good choice to use the #solardye method of @prophet_of_bloom to get the #local tannins from the plantmaterials. More pots will follow. One small step of my #goafteryourdreams dream is done! 🐼🙏🏼🐼
I made myself a shiftdress. It’s for my vacation next week on a camping. My nightgown. On the same time its a sampledress for the collection. I really wanted to make one for so long. This one is made from soft recycled mousseline dyed in Madder. The mousseline is used in a museum for packaging. A dear friend thought I might use it. And I certainly do. I did some ecoprint on them and made some samples. And now a nightgown. I have to test if I like sleeping in it. I am used to jersey now. But women have been sleeping in these for thousends of years so... #slowfashion #slowliving #recycle #marijkebongers #sustainableluxury #plantdye #madder

Organising my #quilt samples. And decided what I will make for the collection from it. Making samples is so much fun. Making a choice for a whole piece is always harder. I hope I will have a long and healthy life, so much samples to work with, and even more ideas...😱😂💪
