New Blog Design // Blog Makeover with Kathastrophal

August 29, 2017

Hooray, today is such an exciting day for me! After my blog makeover back in 2014 and my last major blog makeover style changes in 2016, it was now time for a really big new step. My friend Katha (Kathastrophal.de) is not only a blogger, but also a web developer and after I had heard about her doing a blog makeover for Lisa (Mein Feenstaub), I became curious and asked for details. One thing which had been on my to do list for my blog for quite a while was getting a responsive design and a new and more functional layout and it was sure that I would definitely need help for this.

I founded my blog back in 2010 and since then, I had been blogging on Blogspot. I changed my blog design and the code over the years, but everything was DIY with the help of Google and friends. By now, it was really time for someone professional to put hands onto my code. Katha offered to do this and to move the whole blog to WordPress for better usability and better modification options and one of my main wishes was to get automatic post archives. We talked about the details and have been working on everything over the past few weeks. Wuoah!

Moving to a New Home (with Zapf Umzüge) and a Free Handlettering Printable (for Moving Boxes)

August 8, 2017

[Werbung / sponsored:] This post was written in cooperation with Zapf Umzüge who moved all my boxes and furniture to my new home.

Wohooo, it’s already a month since I moved from Potsdam to Berlin and today, I want to tell you how I found a new home, how moving was like and how I organized everything – including a free printable for labeling your moving boxes.

Back in spring, my Monsieur and I started with apartment hunting in Berlin. We wanted to move together and after eight years of living in Potsdam, I finally wanted to live in Berlin. Apartment hunting was no fun at all. Crowded homes, looking at apartments with fifty other people at the same time, no success in sight. Moreover, I’m not patient at all.

Bloghütte Fläming – Four Days of Adventures in the Brandenburg Countryside

July 24, 2017

[Werbung / sponsored:] This is a travel and adventure report which is part of a cooperation with the tourist board ‘Der Fläming’, now written after I was invited to a blogger trip by them.

Oh wow, this is going to be a REALLY long blogpost with many many photos. So better grab yourself a pot of tea and lean back, it’s gonna take a while…

Some weeks ago, some other bloggers and I went on a little adventure trip for four days and were invited to the Brandenburg countryside by the tourist board ‘Der Fläming’. Fläming is a region in Brandenburg in Germany, south of Berlin. This region is full of wonderful nature, far away from urban mass tourism, but still super rich of impressive sights, creative activities and wonderful people. But see yourself what we experienced and become curious of going there on your own!

Bloghütte Fläming – Four Days of Adventures in the Brandenburg Countryside

So back at the beginning of June, Laura (Herz an Hirn), Katha (Kathastrophal), Lisa (Mein Feenstaub), Inka (Blickgewinkelt), Tobi (Der Kuchenbäcker), Antje and Flo (for Freiseindesign), photographer Greg (Greg Snell Media) and I were invited to spend four days at museum village Baruther Glashütte which is a technical monument, dealing with the social and technical history of the old glassmaker profession and lifestyle.

DIY: Sewing Tutorial for a Sleepover Purse

June 18, 2017

[Werbung / advertisement: This post is sponsored by apotal]

We all know this: sometimes we hop over to a friend’s house and stay for the night, sometimes we go on a little weekend trip with the family or sometimes we stay at someone else’s place super spontaneously… The circumstances may be different, but in each case, it’s nice to have some essentials for a sleepover with us.

For this occasion, I made a tutorial for a sleepover purse with the content you could probably need for sleeping at somebody else’s home and today you can learn how to do this yourself.
