In my previous post you have read about our Miele US kitchen appliance such as the oven, plate & cup warming drawer, dishwasher, ceran cook top and built-in hood. Will write later about our food warming drawer from Miele and our washer and dryer from Miele. Oh, yes we got a Miele vacuum cleaner as well...
BUT the 2010 Miele Magazine shows you whether it's haute couture, business dress or casual wear, when it comes to fashion, Miele's connection is clear to see. This is demonstrated by events in the USA, Belgium and Great Britain, which deal with the topic of fashion in quite different ways, but all with the same result: their customers are inspired. This did result in a first place winning look at Product Runway in Seatle, Washington. The following images are taken from the above hyperlink (2010 Miele Magazine) and you can find the matching page right there. Hope you will enjoy this fascinating catwalk made from Miele appliances. The dress below is made from the anti-slip warming drawer mats! Guess you will need more than one warming drawer so I will not be able to convert mine into a très chic ensemble... Enjoy!
On August 30 in my post
{Our Kitchen Improvements} I did promise to show you more of our kitchen, so here it is... When we bought our property we were looking for a lot with sun in the back of the house, south side for the afternoon. That also meant that our bay window area would have morning sun as it is facing east.
We never did regret this—as it is the most joyful start of the day for having breakfast in the sun! Husband Pieter did make the design of our home and we had it custom build by a local contractor.

Well deserved recognition! It is so true. Miele is available at

See how those two Gardena scissors are hung from three chrome knobs.

Love to share these darling Linen Angel pillows that hang from a twine on a door knob. They come from France and are hand embroidered. You can order them at
L'Ârret Déco France. If you are searching for the authentic French Toile de Jouy fabric, look at
L'Arrêt Déco. This is the exact fabric that is used for most of my French Country Style Sachets, Totes and Bags on Mariette's Back to Basics Boutique.
Their website works fine, however they are not set up for deducting the VAT (Value Added Tax) which is not supposed to be charged for countries outside of the European Union! So be aware of that, you always can write them a note for having this amount adjusted for you. Which of the two do you like best?
This is the linen color cross stitch embroidery on pure white linen.
There is a linen twine for hanging and also a heart shaped mother of pearl button.
This one is unbleached pure linen with white embroidery.
Hanging from our bifold closet doors they look really pretty!
Which one is your favorite?
