About Me
- Jientje
- Antwerp, Belgium
- Welcome to the new, and improved version of Heaven in Belgium. I am Jientje. "Jientje", like the boys name Gene, followed by "chu"? "Gene-chu", that's how you pronounce my name. Yes!!!!That's it!! So now you know huh? I am an addicted blogger. I was born and raised and am still living in Belgium. Yeah, the "this-is- Tuesday-so-this-must-be-Brussels" kind of Belgium .. There, you see? Maybe you couldn't find it on the map, but at least I'm trying to change that a little by sharing lots of pictures. I really love to cook and create new things, like this blog for instance. I am a mother,a grandmothe and a wife too! They say I'm a traveler, and a photographer. Well that's just what they say, I love to make pictures, but I am far from professional ... If my English is not perfect, that would be because it's my second language. I do hope you'll forgive me any possible misspellings or strange vocabulary ... Now, as a result of all of the above, I get way too little sleep and my days are always much too short!

Sepia Scenes, Bokrijk Museum Park
It's been a while since I've done a Sepia Scenes, it seems.
The nostalgic decoration inside the houses at Bokrijk Park Museum are perfect for Sepia Scenes.
All the old houses at the Museum Park are decorated inside with the same old furniture, authentic utensils and tools our grandparents would have used daily.

Great sepia scenes. You are right these things do make perfect sepia photo's. I love the shoes.
You photos show us such beauty in the everyday things that suuround us...we just need to look and see!!!
Love it! Still trying to go see Bokrijk, maybe this summer.
Sepia was perfect for these. I especially love the wooden shoes.
Such perfect scenes for sepia, as you said, jientje! Thanks for playing this week! :)
Absolutely lovely! I LOVE that top one! The candy jars... they are all great though!
I's amazing what a difference this makes, in the "feel" of the photo's.
I'm going to have to give this a try.
wonderful pictures! I love the new blog design as well. Hope you can stop by to see my sepia scene and window views Thanks!
great shots for sepia!

Ohhhh, PERFECT.
Hi!
Awesome photos! Sepia just makes everything look older! Have a great day!!

Lovely sepia scenes! You are right, the old fashioned scenes do resonate well from a sepia print.
I have missed seeing your sepia photos....they are beautiful! Especially that first one.
Is there no type of photo you don't know how to do? These are just excellent. I wish you would do that monochrome meme. I think you would be fantastic at that one as well :) Perfect :)
Perfect pictures for Sepia. They look like they were taken long ago when there was no color film.
I love the new page! And I love pictures in sepia! :-) *huge grin*
I came by to invite you to join us for Fun Monday on June 1st.
Come check out the topic at MommyWizdom.
Ah, the sepia adds so much to these photos. They match the time of the subjects wonderfully.
@ hip Chick: Thanks! I love them too, but I'm not sure I could wear them!
@ Wanda: That's right, but you are good at that too!
@ Korie: You SHOULD do it you know, you really really should! We bought a ticket for the whole season.
@ Nessa: Thanks, I thought it would!
@ Mary the teach: I still enjoy playing very much!
@ Melli: Candy jars is my favourite one too!
@ Libby: Yes, doesn't it?
@ Kaye: Thank you!
@ Balerina girl: I love sepia too, but not every subject looks good in sepia
@ Terri: Thanks!
@ Sherie: It does, it makes old things look even older!
@ Quilly: I think so too!
@ Jacki: I missed it too, too many memes sometimes!
@ Thom: I don't know? Is that Monochrome Monday you're referring to? Too many memes sometimes, like I said!
@ Dr John: That's right, they fit the era of their subjects!
@ Mommy Wizzdom: Thanks for letting me know! Too many memes sometimes!
@ Sandy: They do, that's what I liked about these too!
