Amsterdam is a city that rewards aimless wandering. Narrow alleys contain random art installations. Views shift as you mount canal bridges. And the Dutch custom of curtainless windows seems designed to entertain flaneurs*
Scenes from our many strolls. Getting lost in Amsterdam is the best experience ever. Enjoy, feast your eyes and your wandering hearts! (winks)
Leafde- one of my favourite shops in Jordaan. My loot- a couple of handmade natural linen cases by Fog Linen Work. Happy days!!
Next door to Leafde is Juffrouw Splinter. My loot- a couple of vintage tea cups and saucers, a couple of vintage 1930's traditional Dutch biscuit plates and a gorgeous hand-knitted cotton throw. Love this shop!
De Negen Straatjes- my favourite shopping streets. They really stunned me. Love!
De Waldaad- another favourite shop of mine at De Negen Straatjes. It stocks amazing home decor items. My loot- ceramic knobs and hooks ;)
We bumped into the Spui Art Markt on a Saturday morning stroll. My loot- a gorgeous tiny handmade etching print. Precious!
