Holiday Mood by Siham Mazouz for French By Design

• This dutch baby pancake recipe looks so good and so easy to make, it’s on my must-try list this weekend.

• Have you seen the house tour of the couple behind Maman, Manhattan’s most Instagram-worthy new café? So much goodness!

• In absolute love with this blue kitchen inspiration .

• Another winter recipe I’m dying to try.

• In love with this bedroom setting!

• If you haven’t yet seen Mindhunter, a newly released series on Netflix, you should. I couldn’t stop and binged watched the entire season during the Thanksgiving break. Well done, Netflix!

• Aren’t these DIY Gucci-inspired velvet appliqué pillows gorgeous?

• Jenna Lyon’s newly redesigned Soho apartment is swoon worthy – still drooling over her shoe closet!

I recently discovered Fab Goose, a Scandinavian company that designs 3D paper holiday decorations and home decor pieces. Have you heard about them? They kindly sent* me a few samples of their holiday pieces, and I’m in love.

Fab Goose collaborated with Danish illustrator Theresa Jessing, from Sort Lakrids, to offer 4 different DIY sets ready to assemble at home. Each kit includes :

Paper arks with ready-to-use elements made of 175 g sturdy paper with natural antique finish. FSC and ECF certified (no heavy metals or chlorine bleaching)
100% natural silk string with a special safe needle attached – 2 m
Plastic beads – (400+ pcs.)
Simple assembling instruction with illustrations

You’ll receive your decor piece ready to assemble [we did it with Maya and it was super easy to follow the instructions and get the pieces ready and assembled, like 5 minutes top].

and then, all assembled, you get this adorable nordic fir tree on foot.

I also adore the nordic fir hanging tree version:

Or the mistletoe one… Cute and clever design, isn’t it?

Fab Goose is committed to its environment, and produce all its products locally in the most sustainable way possible. Their products all comply with strict ecological standards.
