Bensimon for Magga

Asking someone to buy a pair of shoes back for you while they're on a holiday
is like giving them a big burden.
They have to be very very close to you...close enough for making you feel alright
to give them this burden.
Three of my best friends went to France and I asked them to buy Bensimon shoes for Magga
which I longed for ages. Need I say more how close we are? Thanks everyone!

My handmade doll

Isn't she cute? I like the pattern on her.
The first picture I took her photo while she was standing up.
The following one I told her to sit down then she cross her legs.
Is she a model? Maybe she is.

My handmade cushion

In interior design work that's too minimal
we can design something warmer for the space to make it look more comfortable.
I like this piece for its simply white but with lots of details.
Fun stuff in a serious clean room.

Lou Doillon

Lou Doillon
French actress, model, musician, and designer.
The daughter of actress Jane Birkin and director Jacques Doillon,
and sister to chanteuse Charlotte Gainsbourg.


I was the hippy teenager. At that moment I would have spat on a girl
who was buying Yves Saint Laurent.
I always laugh today thinking if I ran into myself when I was 15, the other one would slap me.
I sold my soul to the devil.........................................................................

I don't like what my mother was wearing. She was only wearing jeans and T-shirts
when I was born because it was in the ’80s.
I didn’t know the fashionable Jane Birkin in the ’70s...............................................

I was a daughter of a bourgeoisie family, and was kind of ashamed of it
I guess when I was a teenager.
I had dreadlocks and pretended I had no money................................................................

I guess I always wanted to move more than be sexy.
I always wanted to look like a little animal that you wanted to take home
more than the super beautiful girl who’s not moving.
It’s not about impressing people, it’s about moving them.........................................................

I always found my mother extremely moving because she had no boobs.
The girl who has the perfect body, like Betty Paige,
freaks me out............................................................................

I get a bit angry when I talk about history for four hours, and people say,
“Oh we didn’t know you read books.”
I wanna say, “Fuck what did you think?!” ..............................................................

If you need it you get it darling.

To solve my problems that Magga only wants to wear a long sleeve shirt
with a pant in a very very hot weather now.
I’m thinking about making him in a lightweight and breezy fabric.
I found something very inspiring

Dressing with Magga..."we are sailing"

Muji has a line for little kids which I found that most of Magga's clothing is from here.
We have Muji in Thailand but not available in kid's stuff......I don't know why.
Normally I would ask my friends to buy them back when they have a trip to Japan.
When I was there I couldn't stop buying things for Magga from here because it's quite affordable.
At the moment I want to see Magga in this top
even though I know he wants to wear only long sleeve top all the time in these days.


And to go along together with him I will be in this outfit from a.p.c.
By the way we don't have a.p.c. here and it's quite pricey

For someone who stop from working like me
and spend money from my husband's wallet like me (at the moment).

My handmade cards

This Monday is my eldest sister Nui’s birthday.
I want to make her my own design card.
Long before I always made my own card but forgot how good I feel
after finish it and give it to someone special.
I just finish this one for her.
Happy Birthday!

My new handmade blouse

I made these in grey and of course in....white

Quote of the day "J.Lennon&P.McCartney"

Magga…I’m sorry

I had a little fight with Magga this morning and I just realised how mean I was.
At these days he wants to dress in a long sleeve shirt
and a pant in a very very hot weather to school.
That some time he came back with a rash on his body because of his too much sweat.
I told him to wear shorts and a t-shirt but he insisted in what he wanted.
After explaining to a 3 years old little boy for half an hour
he asked me to help him taking off his pyjama and taking a bath.
I helped him but with a hard action that he said I made him hurt and then he cried.
And that makes me realised how delicate he is and...was.


This made me cry too. I'm so sorry.

That was the first morning….

I still remember how exciting I was for the first time that I took a bath for Magga.
He’s so delicate and I was worried that I would hurt him.
I couldn't remember any other things much but that was such a beautiful morning.
These are some pictures of that morning.
It's kind of a good start for all of us.
Shiny and bright.

This is the chair I see

I found this chair is so interesting.
It's Sergio Rodrigues Cantu Chair. And it was designed in 1961.
So timeless.

White cupboard

Every time I thought I got enough of the white cupboard,
I saw some pictures that stop me to look at.
And it turns out to be that white cupboard again.
For my experience the white cupboard looks good for a certain time.
Not like timber cupboard that age perfectly years after years.

What we need in our house "kitchen"

We thought that by the time Magga get 6 years old our house project should be completed.
But we didn't start to do anything yet. I have 3 years left.
Hope this is enough for the slow thinker like me.
From now on we start to think about what we need it to be.
This is a kitchen that I'm thinking of at the moment.

Quote of the day "A. de Saint-Exupery"

Kanchit

Kanchit always asks me if I write about him in here.
But no matter how I t tried I couldn't.
I'm not a kind of people who tell others a lot about how much I feel for my husband.
I think it's better to say after you stay together for a long time
...let's say...40 years like my parents.
Because things change and people change too.
But if I have to say something here to others about this
it must be the words of how glad I am to meet him.
I'm really glad to meet you...Kanchit and I really mean it.

Lunch along Choa Praya River

Yesterday we went to Pakkred a small old town along Choa Praya River.
There's an old restaurant called Hong Seng Pochana
located in an old wooden house on the river bank.
It was a really hot day but Magga insisted to wear long sleeve shirt
and long pant with his high rubber boot.
He siad he wanted to be a fireman today.
He was soaking by his sweat but refused to change into the other outfit.
I mean...the proper one.
what else could we do?
We had lunch with Kanchit's family.
But for Magga...he was so interested in the boats on the river but not the food on the table.

My quote of the day "Sylvia Plath"

My next dream destination "Hideaway Ninh Van Bay"

I told Kanchit that I was dreaming to go there when we got married.
But since then my iittle boy joined the family members
and this may not be the right place to go for us at the moment.
I'm still dreaming of this.

My interior design "ISBN salon"

Two branches of this salon name ISBN that I designed
located at the department stores in Bangkok.
I think I still love the look of it.

My sketch "elephant"

Sometime when I feel lost I get myself back by drawing things around.
I went to Dusit zoo in Bangkok;the old zoo in Thailand
and drew these pictures many years ago.
Elephants are the animal that can calm you down when you are close to them.
Big and humble that how I felt.

My trip to "Pranburi" at Aleenta

Pranburi is a small town next to Hua Hin;a famous beach in Thailand.
Pranburi is much quieter than Hua Hin and has many interesting hotels along the beach.
We stay at Aleenta; a small hotel that once before didn't welcome children under 12 years old.
But then later it has new section with 5 rooms for family with kids.
Magga loves the place and swam all day because the pool is next to the terrace
and he could jump right into there since he opened his eyes in the morning.
