back home

inspiration in/from a shell

it happens me
always
when I am on holidays

after a few days
I am so relaxed
that
inspiration comes to me
easily

then I am happy I brought some things
to create with
in this case
lots of
cotton yarn


I guess
I just have more time
to notice
all these little things
around me
I have them back home too
but there I am mostly
busy
doing other things

My youngest daughter Mies
found this
tiny empty shell

just look at it
a little bit closer
and
discover
how nature
makes the most
awesome colorcombinations...

and
by coincidence
I found these gorgeous handmade Raku buttons
from a ceramics artist
at Sarlat
can't wait
to finish
this necklace
back home!

My creative workspace

oh yes,
I took some yarn
on holiday

while kids
are having fun
at the swimming pool
I enjoy the sun and garden
in the mids
of the
Perigord Noir woods

find more creatve spaces on Kotooyoo's blog

Forest Finds

can't help it

those simple things
you find
along the roads

I love
the shades
the colors
the textures
the forms

just can't do a walk
without
gathering
all sort
of inspiring
beautiful
nature finds

and what's so funny
also
my kids
are thrifters too
LOL!
(what is nature, what is nurture? ;-)

two more days...

...and we'll be back in Belgium.
I hope to bring home a bit of the sun from France!
