Waking up at Mirlo's

Lately we've been seeing a lot of coffeeplace/conceptstore combinations popping up everywhere.
These 'little shops around the corner' are often brimming with personality, becoming an extension of the character (and living room) of the owner, who is usually pooring the coffee herself.

Mirlo's in Antwerpen is a fine example of a lovely place to have your coffee, breakfast and lunch. With loads of character, a clean interior design and a welcoming owner (Merel).
And now, aside from all the edible and drinkable goodness, you can also visit Mirlo's to buy Waterworks!

Waterworks @ EIGEN Apeldoorn

One of the results of ShowUP: Waterworks is now available at lovely City Garden / Cafe / Concept Store EIGEN in Apeldoorn.
We actually did a little research ourselves before ShowUP and reached out to EIGEN before the fair by sending them an e-mail, because we thought they would make a great point-of-sale for Waterworks.

A few snapshots from the EIGEN's Facebook page to prove my point:

EIGEN has a Facebook page you can visit for more information, and check out this lovely video about the store:

ShowUP - the aftermath


As you may or may not have noticed, we've been working our behinds off to prepare for our first official tradefair ShowUP.
And it was worth it!

Slightly dazed from many short nights (add up deadlines + a 4-month-old) we pretty much made it through the two-day fair on enthusiasm and adrenaline - and coffee of course.


Since it was our first time at ShowUP, we had no idea what to expect, and were pleasantly taken with the totally fresh and mellow atmosphere and the many lovely new products.

The response we got to our booth was great and we spoke with many people, bloggers and retail merchants alike, who are appreciative of the way we're developing our brand as self-producing designers.


Aside from the direct orders that we're obviously content with, we're very happy about all the interesting people we met and contacts we made.
New stockists will be added to the website soon!

There's just one thing i regret about the two days: being at the booth the whole time, we only got to have a little glance at the many other lovely brands and their products.
Actually, it might've been just as well, the greed would've probably taken the better of me otherwise.

Newsletter trouble....

Something went wrong when we tried to send out our newsletter yesterday.
Click here to read it online: "Zien we je bij ShowUP?".
And here is our (Dutch) press release.

Since it's all about the Dutch Tradefair ShowUP, the newsletter is completely Dutch this time.
An English newsletter will follow after the fair.
