Such a perfect day

It was such a perfect day,
let me some things up, if I may...
 
Woke up before the alarm
felt pretty comfortable and warm.
Got to talk to an angelic friend from over the ocean
LOVE was at least one present emotion!
Broke the fast with warm food
could I have been in a better mood?
 
Oh yes, I could, because there she is...
It's ''CinderELLA'' to you, miss!
Just when I think I have seen her cutest way
she comes up and makes this a perfect day...
With the softest voice she ''read'' her New Years Letter 
with gestures and signs that made it even better.
 
Liefste meter,
Met mijn armpjes open,
kom ik aangelopen.
Een kusje hier, een kusje daar.
Een gelukkige Nieuwjaar!
Uw kleine kapoen,
Ella.
 
When I showed her what, for her, I made
she played and played and played...

Home made pastries, hot chocolate, ice-cream, a housemate that baked pancakes and tea...
A perfect ''perfect day'' feast, if you ask me!
All that sugar made us need fresh air
''Hey, I know of a slide and grass over there!''
Ella loves chickens and slides
and never ever her excitement she hides...

When they left I had to run off the empty space
and made my Sunday evening activity into a race
Half an hour and about 5K
hot salty soup... and yes there it is... Just a perfect day!

The ear wants something too...

So I've been making these rings,
out of buttons and things...
My button collection is starting to grow
and so is my excitement for this whole show...
I am now making earings as well...
don't they look swell?
 
 
My plans for an onlineshop are getting more clear
stay tuned, an announcement might appear!

Travelling rings

I made this ring-case myself,
in an old suitcase.



I put my creations in a suitcase,
so you can give them a better gaze.
I am equiped and ready to make more
let me know if you want to score
a ring or two
I bet they will look great on you!













Not so difficult to make, do you want to know how?
Send me an email, or check:

In dutch...
Thank you Gerhilde for this great idea!



Now it's time for me to pack too...
you wonder what I am going to do?
I will be in India for three weeks
and  promiss you some peeks
in what I do and don't and feel
and maybe about my favorite meal!

The ring of F...abric

It was fun, it was a blast,
it was easy and fast...
Some rings of fabric on the wall.
and it's the prettiest wall of them all :).

 
 
 
 
Want to make some too?
All you need is:
- embroider-ring(s)
- some pieces of fabric
- nail and hammer
- a wall
- maybe some old frames?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
All you do is:
- for the embroider-rings:
tighten the fabric in the rings
and cut the fabric off at the edge
hang up :)
- for the frames:
put the fabric in the frame,
push the back of the frame in
and cut of the fabric at the edge
hang up :)
 
Have fun and enjoy the view!
