feeling slightly "on hold" lately

the gorgeous weather is a treat though

it´s so warm my cat likes to retreat into my shadow

and does not approve when i move around

.

after talking to a lot of cat owners

mine seemed to be the sweetest creature out there

so kind and careful

probably because she get´s to be so wild around the garden

(my gardening companion thinks she´s a special breed between a monkey and a cat

since her climbing skills are so outstanding)

.

lots of patient sawing

the new collection is almost finished now

and a PENDANT for RIKE adorned with a sky full of tiny stars

(+ a new addition to my moon cookie cutter collection)

thank you for all your patient "business help"

thinking about putting it in the shop now

.

new shoes with shadowy dots

can´t wait to wear them

.

have a sunny weekend

oh that glorious weather!

looks like we will have a break from all that sunshine starting this weekend

but how beautiful those weeks have been...

.

a perfect start for the flea market season

strangely almost all my bargains were somehow rose coloured

a marble lamp foot and a rose/copper coloured mirror

i tried these shoes on with too thick socks

so i probably have to give them to K

unless you´ve got an idea how to shrink vintage Bally sandals a size or two

(wearing my favorite HUI HUI scarf)

.

E is gone now for almost two weeks

but she left glasses full of coloured water and paint stained cloths all over the place

i quite like how the cat and i turned out

she says i´m getting more and more exhausting

being grumpy and talking endlessly about plants

but she liked that "painter´s primerose"

(i made up that name since it looks like someone draw delicate lines on the petals

probably with a LAMY fountain pen)

and to prove her right:

i´m completely enamoured with those pale yellow wild daffodils

just planted a few last fall to see how i like them

and i do very much

dreaming of a whole meadow of those now

.

have a wonderful weekend

ZWISCHENZEIT

W doesn´t like ugly lighters and sanding paper in pictures

he thinks it doesn´t look pretty

but i say the truth is beautiful

we do need beauty in our lives

but one tends to hide reality for the sake of it

so now it´s time to show of those bright blue fleece sweaters and old hands
he´s working on one of his old classics

.

the last hours of Fasching

made myself a construction with bouncing and bobbing paper balls

cat likes it to

E is doing a little dance wearing TI´s hat - thank you so much
tried to make Ninas CHOCOLATE CONFETTIS
looks like the circulation air setting of my oven does not work
made myself some egg coal
but since i´m obviously in a Zen-like state of mind i didn´t took it to hard
the Krapfen were shop bought after this
but KATHREINERLE made them herself

.
can´t get enough of INTELLIGENT CLASHING
or the new ladies collection by MUKU
