Let’s try a no bake blackberry pie recipe! We have soooo many wild blackberries in the neighborhood and now they are ready to be harvested! And why not make a delicious blackberrie pie with it, with a Oreo cookie crust, how irresistible does that sound? Aaaaand make the vegetarians happy, no gelatin! I make mine the day before a birthday party so they have some time to get firm inside the fridge. So let’s get to it!
Ingredients:
28 Oreo cookies original (2 packages)
1/3 cup butter (80 gram)
8 oz wild blackberries (250 gram)
A handful of blueberries
1/3 cup sugar (65 gram)
500 ml whippe ..read more

When I started this article I was worried about the title. Minimalism, I would call it. It’s what the documentary on Netflix was called I watched before writing this article. But thinking about minimalism makes me think about a hippies philosophy and someone living in a tiny home. But that is not what minimalism really is about. It’s about what truly makes us happy. About Living more with less stuff. So that’s what I’m going to be talking about here.

Autumn has started so time to get the autumn decoration out! But maybe even more important. This means it’s time to get ready for Halloween. Halloween is just a couple weeks away and I’m so excited! Halloween is my favorite holiday. It’s the day that I can go all out in decoration. I can make my house look like it’s haunted or it’s invested with spiders. I can invite zombies or witches and have a big party together. Skye Tattersal had a great idea for the decoration this year. She made a small DIY Baba Yaga house!
I loved it so much I asked if I could know how she made it and share it with eve ..read more

I’m back home from a lovely holiday and ready to decorate the home for the new season. All the beautiful summer flowers are ready to form seeds and so there are lots of red berries to be found. These would be beautiful for a garland. So I grabbed myself a bag and walked around the neighborhood. Roses, Firethorn, red chokeberries, holly and many more are growing bright berries. This garland is very easy to make and needs little materials. Wanna make your own Red Berry Wreath? Follow the instructions below!
What you need:
Wreath base ( I used a straw base)
Hot glue gun and glue sticks

Is everyone ready to leave summer and roll into autumn? I’m slowly packing up my summer clothing, finishing up any late garden chores and getting my autumn decoration out. The sun will get behind the rainy clouds, so we get inside to watch the drops fall upon our windows. And what better season to start getting back into some indoor hobbies? I have to many hobbies to count. Making miniature’s, clothing, drawing, painting and of course I love to crochet. Once you know the basics you can make almost any pattern you find. And I would love to make some new autumn decoration with crochet patterns ..read more

I decided to add a little name to these kind of posts. People I follow. This time we’ll be talking about Her86m2! Her86m2 or Thuy Dao lives in Germany and named her channel after her 86m2 sized appartement, where she makes videos about her life. Which is all about gardening and living. So here is another People I follow with Her86m2 in the spotlights.
I really get an instant cottagecore feel as soon as I play one of her videos. They are so lovely sereen with relaxing music, soft tones and simple daily life. I even use her videos as background music while blogging.
