stuck in the snow



So the Holidays started on Friday.......
and how! with a huge pack of snow!
I planned to go buy my own torch,some silver wire and silver plate and other metalsmith stuff, on friday....but nope.... it was far to dangerous to hit the road to the supply shop located 40 km from my home... :-(
mmmm, disappointed, I really wanted to practice some soldering at home,...
So I needed to change plans....

I packed some more earrings for Nathalies shop. You should really go there one of these days, se gives a big promotion (till 31 of december) and gosh! she has some very nice stuff in stock. I could not resist and bought me a super lovely dress!

Je kunt zeker een paar uurtjes doorbrengen in Onderbergen, niet alleen Natalies winkel is een bezoekje waard maar ook de aanpalende winkel a.pur.a (één van mijn all time favorieten!! met heel veel leuke en japans geïnspireerde spullen) een gezonde (overheerlijk e) lunch bij 't lepelblad of een zoete pannenkoek in de Jacobijn. een paar leuke restaurants tips zijn vintage.(een aanrader!), Domestica(waar vroeger de Japanse Foeton winkel was) en Mineral (jaren geleden een vaste stek, maar eigenlijk een tjdje gelden nu, dat ik er at!) Die buurt is altijd een beetje thuiskomen voor mij (ik woonde er 6 jaar!)

I expect the Christmas shopping rush will be over for now, so lots of free time are in front of me... I need to plan my time, lots of creative ideas are bubbling in my mind too :-)

it's snowing!


picture: snowbunting

Can't take any pics of my workspace!
No worries, it's a mess!
The reason is the greyness outside..., finally it's snowing :-) and it keeps snowing, yay! The kids couldn't wait togo out and have snowfun this morning :-)

So maybe I can show now what I made for Secret Santa.
Two weeks ago I finished my Secret Santa present, and yesterday I got a message from Netka from Woodbenice that she received it , as she has no blog, I show you here the presents Santa (me) made for her :-)

Christmas trees


I am happy the tree of last year survived! I only hope he can stand another two weeks in a warm house!

I looove the drawings of my son, so sweet, innocent and fun!
I secretly hope he will have the drawing skills I had, and maybe later takes art classes, hm, who knows,.... one can only dream...

I am busy these days wrapping up orders and shipping them, almost no time to set up my shop, so the FREE SHIPPING continues.

We woke up to a frosty morning today, it was damn cold to bike to school!
But yet not cold enough to have the beautifull wite frost on the branches and leaves.
I secretely wish that it gets much colder, I enjoy the beauty and silence of nature on such days!
Anyway the weatherforecast promises snow on Wednesday: yay!

I hope your monday starts as good as mine: I had a good sleep and that definitely gives me a good mood! The weekend was busy because of te fair on sunday, but I booked good results, so it was worth the energy! I am glad though that it was the last fair this year, next weekends will be completely dedicated to family and friends!
