The beautiful places in Bruges

Stories Bruges

Now that we have been living in the center of Bruges for a while, we sometimes get the question what are your most beautiful places in Bruges that I really must have seen or visited?
I have to say that I don't always have a ready-made answer to that.
You can recommend the tourist attractions of Bruges, the restaurants, the cozy bars and coffee bars, but even then there will be many places that we forget.
I could easily make some lists with the top 5 or top 10 places to visit in Bruges but even then I would dishonor some beautiful places in Bruges, so I decided to dedicate an entire column to it in my Instagram stories.
If you want to see all the beautiful treasures that can be found in Bruges and the surrounding area, feel free to take a look at the webshop. Online store (bdr84.be)

Never thought it would come to this, but here it is my very first blog post. I really didn't see this coming when I had the crazy idea to open a webshop. What would I write about, answer no idea. Would people like this writing, answer no idea. Will there be people reading this at all, answer no idea. Well, how blogging came about. Other webshop owners are to blame for this, they said to me Bram you have to start blogging to get interaction with your audience, your target audience and maybe later also your potential customers. Rest assured, this is my first post, so I'm still very skeptical of this thought. I see this post more as a test. My next question to those merchants was what should I write about. Answer. Yourself, your products, your knowledge... We already have a problem with the latter because I am not an expert with knowledge at all, I am rather a lover of antiques, brocante, vintage, it can also be new products that are in the shop. I buy what I like and put it at my home and through the shop we try to sell it, and if someone likes it it can be bought in the shop, this is the thought process of the shop. We deviate a bit, I told you earlier that I see this blog/post more as a test. Here are a few questions for you. Are there any issues you guys would like me to write about, suggestions are welcome. Please keep it webshop related thank you. This question is perhaps the most important question for you. Feel free to take a look at the website / webshop www.bdr84.be and let me know what you think of it and what can be improved, a lot of it probably. I'd love to hear it. Feel free to send me an email. info@bdr84.be This also had to be included, sign up now for my newsletters. You'll be the first to get them when new products come to the shop. You will also be notified when a new blog appears. Go to the newsletter subscriptions page to complete this process easily. So this was my very first post, Until the next one.

From accounting to marketing and yes even taking the photos that come on the shop, we make it completely ourselves. We also choose the design of the sweaters ourselves, it shows, but that being said... In this blog I will further highlight my USPs, my Unique Selling Points. Because everything here is DIY, you are assured of a very personal service. So I am also my own helpdesk. For example, if you have any questions about the ordering process or about other matters, feel free to send them on, I will be happy to answer them. 1 product in stock. The products that come on the shop are personally selected by me, whether they come from another webshop or from an antique or flea shop in Bruges, the products that are on the shop are selected by me. If I had 2 pieces of some products I would add it but for now this is not the case. So be quick because gone is gone. 2 Delivery time from 2 to 5 working days. When placing an order, I always try to work as quickly and as carefully as possible so that the product you order arrives at your home in one piece. Because everything here is DIY, I put a Delivery time of 2 to 5 working days with the products, this is just to give myself a little more leeway, but it may well be that the product arrives at you faster. 3 Free delivery. I give free delivery with all the products. That way it is much clearer for me and for all of you. If you order 1, 2 or more products, the delivery remains free. Even if I have to put the products in more than one box to prevent breakages and the like, shipping will still be free for you, so feel free to take advantage of this. In case you're wondering. We also write the texts of the blog ourselves, no AI and Chat GTP have been used yet. With this last note, we close this blog here. Hopefully you have learned a bit more about how things work here. Until the next one. We still need to keep asking you these questions. Feel free to take a look at the website / webshop www.bdr84.be and let me know what you think of it and what can be improved. Feel free to send me an email. info@bdr84.be From now on, you can also sign up for my newsletters. You'll be the first to get them when new products are added to the shop. You will also be notified when a new blog appears. Go to the newsletter subscriptions page to complete this process easily.
