Décalée

Pictures from my advent wreath will come later as the ones I have taken sofar have turned the yummy raspberry pink into a crazy red...
So in the meantime : here is a Little house in the prairie like dress but cute -to me.

Retour to sender

Ahhhhh! rediscovering the NL and their gift/love for design...
Have you ever read 101 woonideeën?
Worth trying.

They have a article on a designer for HEMA (one of the fave things in the NL, in case you don't know)...a job for one of my next lives...

She designed
this lovely gingerbread men for the HEMA's (fair trade) Retour to Sender Xmas collection.
Her blog
SjoeSjoe is also worth visiting!
(Ah la la, les premiers temps après un déménagement ou l'on se prend à être un touriste et on (re)découvre des jolies choses (qu'on aimait bien)!!!
Parmi elles, un super magazine avec un article sur une designer pour HEMA et blogueuse. son bonhomme en pain d'épices déco de Noël - qui plus est fabriqué de manière équitable- est à croquer!
Ça donnerait pas envie de venir dans l'Autre Pays du Fromage, ça?)

and while moving


You know how when moving, it is vital to keep few things personal around you. Homeward Bound on repatriation and Marylin's Fragments along with the last issue Martha Stewart 's Living have found a little spot in my luggage.

simultaneity

Both Rere and I have moved last weekend. We are officially now on the same continent. though in two different countries. Hence the non posting lately. Leave us just few days to unpack/recover and we'll see ya soon!(emptying the house and getting ready to cross the Atlantic)

Xmas craft

With some very good ideas as well, take a look at the Inspire.Co Xmas issue. I do prefer the Gifted (see previous post below) but have still told myself I might try the the yarn wreath (p.109), the Swedish sock but with paper (p.134) and the yoyo Xmas tree (p.140).


I absolutely looooooove the yoyo tree!! I shall be having a go!! Nice one B (as usual).

very gifted indeed!

Have you seen the Gifted magazine?

Don't know if it's new, don't know exactly what the story behind it is (I follow several of my fav bloggers appearing in the issue) but it is absolutely lovely and has quite a few things I will seriously take as inspiration.


(trop beau ce e-mag, a voir AB-SO-LU-MENT!)
