photoshoot !

Toen een vlinder neerstreek
op een roze bloem in 't gras
zag ik
dat de vlinder bloem
en de bloem vlinder was

en dat ik in het een dat leeft
het andere herken
en dat ikzelf
een levend deel
van alle leven ben

gewoon, omdat ik dit een heel mooi gedichtje vind!

en misschien ook omdat ik wou dat er meer kansen en mogelijkheden waren voor kindjes met een beperking, in deze maatschappij die zichzelf voorbijholt.
hm, ik moest het eens kwijt :-)

*bedankt Nathalie dat ook Miesje mocht poseren voor de photoshoot van Guppies*

A very busy weekend with lots of socialising lays behind me.
I am happy to be here now , on my own, complete silence.
I think a nap will do me good, just have to catch up some sleep!

Weekend wishlist
(find some other weekend wishlists on Karuski's blog)

Only two things on my wishlist: more time and more sleep.
(I had two terrible nights (with too less sleep), I feel a wreck:-()

Last week:
I've been busy with orders(remember the recycled paper necklaces!)
made a bunch of Japanese garden earrings,
finally did some sales shopping in town (in a hurry)
bought these in olive green.
saw this 'moving' theatre play
catched up with a friend I had not seen for months
tried to find a nice holiday-place for this summer vacation


I truly wish I had more time to practice my metal class skills.
Hm, I need to investigate in some more tools too, and these are not cheap,...
I've been soldering lots of rings (little ones, bigger, copper, silver).
and I already assembled one pair of earrings with some rosey copper rings, I like the quirky rough touch of the rosey copper, a lovely contrast with the translucent aqua/teal/mint color of the agate stones.
Te earrings are in my shop now.
A matching necklace is on it's way!

Alice

Haven't found the time to show you this.
It's created for the Challenge hosted by Kreativlink "make something you never did before"
I made a journal.
This is the cover, I still have to finish it and make the inside.
The illustration is from a vintage 'Alice in wonderland' book I found at the thrift shop last week. The fabrics are all vintage. ANd I just love the stamp.

hm, this reminds me I have to pop in the thrift shop today, you never know which treasure I will find this time.

been busy

SWeet studs from vintage fabrics for Guppies.
I designed a whimsical card to pin them on.
New collection of etnic inspired earrings. soon in my shop

No friday Night Outfit today , I 've been so busy and have no time now, have to run in town for some shopping....
in the meantime I show what I've been busy with:

New Playlist :-)

Serpentine
Deus


I'm caught in the flow of things
My memory's a broken machine
This is how my day begins
This is just one day unseen

Lets do it serpentine any time
Lets do it right here

It is bad that you're good for me
Did I love you just randomly?
I'm caught in the flow of sound
And you're just some melody

Let's do it serpentine, any time
Let's do it right here

There's a cute little litany
Put it on my shoulder
Eight o'clock and we agree
It makes me look much older

Got my clockwork company
Got my dark green trenchcoat on
I'm sure it will always be
Someone staying and someone gone

Let's do it serpentine, any time
Let's do it right here
Let's do it serpentine, I don't mind
Let's do it right here
