A bag begins

I took some photos from the beginning of the idea for a bag all the way to through the process. I chose moss green wool this time and decorated it with beautiful flowers.

I get my inspiration from the books, nature, magazines - and the finished product sometimes resembles the ideas, most of the time not. Somehow it seems that the flowers are taking over the little bees and birdies but we´ll see.

Soon I am off to funfair with my fantastic goddaughters and that should be not only great fun but also give me some inspiration too. I cannot (will not, don´t want to) take any rides at the gadgets but I´ll be enjoying the happy faces. And some sun, finally!

Enjoy your week!

Rainy days vol.2

It´s still miserable here but rain is good for the nature - so I have been told. It actually works, everything looks more fresh and green.

The rain brings out the little bugs too and they´re quite adorable sometimes. Or what do you think this red lady who just flew into the shop?

Happy Saturday!

Summer brings the birdies too

It´s the first day of my holidays and it´s been wonderful so far. I spent the morning (and most of the day, too) with my wonderful sister and the world´s most adorable nephew. Sun shined and birds were singing. Absolute bliss.

The birds inspired me to decorate a cute felted bag I knitted last weekend. The bag is adorable (even if I say so myself) and went to the shop. I assume there are more birdies awaiting - could someone knit me more bags, please?

Blooming

Flowers are blooming everywhere. Beautiful.

Good morning!

I just opened my PC and checked my mails and yippee, one of my handmades has been featured with some amazingly pretty etsy felts here ! Thank you Melissa!

It made me smile, and my smile just widened when I saw that it was my red felted birdie cozy, and the picture there looked great. And it was me who complained about it just a few days back.

It´s quite early morning still, and I am having my coffee just next to big window. Land is getting greener, birds are singing and it´s Friday. Life is good.

Have a great weekend!

Birdie in red

Just how difficult is it to take a decent picture of
a red felted cozy with a green birdie?

Very* indeed.


*these six here are "the best" of the bad 45. Lucky me.

Wonderful weekend

It´s been wonderful weekend.

The weather has been sunny, hot almost, summer-like really.
We got the yard cleaned (leaves somehow were there again when snow left, how come that happens every year?), had a great mother/granny´s day, and I got some more birdies done.

The great weather got me out with my camera also. The pictures were crappy but it was wonderful to realize, that there will be light for my projects in the evenings too. And the pictures will get better eventually.

All in all just plain fabulous weekend. Hope yours was good too!

Spring colors

Spring has officially arrived with the birds and
the bees, and all the pretty colors.

I really love it.
