My plants.

My livingroom has turned into a greenhouse last night;
because of the coming night frost, I had to rescue all the
plants of the terrace, except the grasses;
so what you're seeing here is only a tiny part of the jungle
that I have brought in yesterday evening!
It gives me a bit of a 'Jane feeling'
Only my runny nose does not fit into the picture :^).
But the light was gorgeous today!!

A vintage shop for 4 days.

Thursday next, there will be a 4-day pop-up at atelier solarshop;
My pillows will be for sale and also the little furs.
And potholders of course!

Thank you all for the sweet words on my previous post :^)

Good Night and Sweet Dreams!

My week.

I've been through a weird and busy week, filled with dull jobs
and unpleasant things that needed to be done urgently
so,
this is my top 3 against little nervous breakdowns when your
free time is rather limited:

1 watch a good movie
2 take care of your plants and make sure there are always
fresh flowers in your house
3 make small walks in your neighborhood and take your
camera with you.

Painting balls also helps; those on the photo had a three layer
glossy varnish.
The rider in bearskin comes from 'True Gritt'.

Have a nice weekend all!

Gift from a friend.

A nice set of embroidered fabric samples :^)









Happy weekend!

Black&white, or almost.

When looking back at my flickr pages, I'm a little embarrassed
about the poor quality of my pictures, especially those of my
sampler are really no class, brrr.
So, if the weather is ok, I mean, when there's enought light,
I will try to make some better ones, soon!
The pictures here are from a small piece of sampler; I was trying out
some leaves and flowers in different stitches; the black shapes are
a combination of crochet and embroidery, it was fun to do!
The cute cat is Amy, Luc & Zjé's pet, love the black pads
under her right leg :^)









Have a nice evening & sweet dreams!

Looking after Stella, 3

1 & 2

Play.

Finally some sun today!
It gives me energy :^)

I was painting balls for a new set of mobiles,
played with the blocks for a while,
then browsed in a book of Oscar Schlemmer
and made some pictures of the light that occasionally
lit up my room.
I tried a few compositions with the wooden
plates, but I'm still not quite sure what I want.
We'll see :^)






Have a nice weekend all!

My plants.

New life and wild times gone by...

I've got a few stems of an umbrella palm to take root; they're
now for about two weeks with their leaves down into the water,
so I wonder when the first roots will appear.
Maybe tomorrow :^)

What about the the Nepenthes, could it be a carnivorous
becomes harmless once he's domesticated and cared for? The thing is,
the plant is doing very well but makes no more traps; the last
one was about two years ago and has now completely dried.

Or is it just laziness?
I would do the same of course!
Goodnight & Sweet dreams :^)



Tree of Life, love!!!
