The choices made during the design process for Wennekerpand, an Industrial theater-café in Schiedam are though. Made by Studio Bertjan Pot, it all started with a new safety ladder and carnival lights. When they arrived it suddenly seemed like the perfect illogical combination to make. Rawness and glitter. The installation is called ‘Stairway to heaven’ the repurposed ladders became a brilliant and attractive object, there to illuminate.

I made this belt from a vintage bed sheet.

The unusually warm Christmas meant the girls could spend time repurposing Grandpa and Grandma's back yard - from young forest growth to rooms and dungeons. I got in trouble multiple times for walking through walls (note the lines of bricks and logs - don't cross!). We had a sweet time in West Virginia.
