to the artists, designers and craftspeople who think I call their work kitsch... this is NOT the case, it refers to my own work

noisy day

A few boxes filled with toy racecars are waiting for a project. 

Meanwhile we're 'enjoying' the real thing...


The view from our window this morning.  The field in front of the house is turned into a racetrack.  The autocross - as it is called here - will be going on all through the day.


A roaring sound for the entire day...
Apart from that it looks like it is going to be a nice one.

recycled car - build your own

Le Patron
kit car









This peculiar car caught my attention on the Brussels car show because it is a RECYCLED car. The base is from a Citroën 2CV - the legendary Deux Chevaux - Dyane or Ami 8. With a new redesigned polyester body, the whole car is available in kit. It can be assembled with the usual tools in a normal toolbox and will take some 200 hours. The car is approved and allowed on the streets in Belgium and the Netherlands.

kindergarten for cars

Every time we happen to drive past this spot where these cuties are for sale, I think it looks like a kindergarten for cars. These cars are SO tiny.
Some have extra storage space

rainbow colours

a glamorous one with 'eyelashes'

some with 'handles', I can't stop thinking that it looks like you could lift this car by its 'handles' on the rear and the front and carry it to a parking space.

very funky interior - is it fifties?
