it looks like i´m very good at channeling a saint
not interested in that career though
being one involves lots of pain and making miracles happen
.
turned some casualties caused by severe cutting back
into a divine smelling wreath
if someone would be interested in making me fall in love with him
it might help a great deal if he wore the scent of santoline, artemisia and basil
get´s me every time...
.
my hydrangeas are still battling with the ground
small flower heads but they do look quite optimistic to me
and i´m very smitten with those tiny explosive looking ALLIUMS
(quite a match in that vase looking like a grenade somehow)
they come in lots of colours and i´m going to order ALL of them this fall
.
a copper CAT NECKLACE
for a ginger cat owner
and a custom made silver plated HAIR COMB
it turned out so nice we decided to offer tis option too
.
a SOUR CHERRY SHAKE
and a very old plum tree breaking down bearing too much fruit
.
and YES, E would very much like to sell her paintings
do get in touch with her any time
.
a for no reason my favorite part of Breakfast at Tiffany´s:
"The sky was red Friday night, it thundered, and Saturday, departing day, 
the city swayed in a squall-like downpour. 
Sharks might have swum through the air, 
tough it seemed improbable a plane could penetrate it."
you just have to love Truman Capote

last week i visited E in Leizig
didn´t take any pictures outside her flat
but it was spectacular enough
.
it´s such a different city compared to our clean small Bavarian town
i quite enjoyed riding my bike there
taking in new sights and smells
.
also visiting art school without being a student anymore
is a really relaxed thing
(we were quite the attraction - apparently we look very much alike)
.
unfortunately all my little souvenirs from the Zeughaus broke
on the way back home

thank you so much for stopping by on Saturday
we had a wonderful afternoon
actually after such good weather we didn´t mind the rain in the end
.
since some of you asked for the recipes
i made a lemon-thyme-cake from Nigel Slater´s Kitchen Diaries II
a GREEN TEA + RASPBERRY CAKE from Rose Bakery
(it´s the second recipe, but the first one sounds like a stunner too - french version HERE
and a nectarine-honey-sirup based loosely on this RECIPE
.
E did not only brilliantly finish her studies
she also just had her 25th birthday - just like the ICE CREAM we´re so fond of
so we made her a popsicle stick necklace
.
i´m pretty fond of my own TROPICAL MOON NECKLACE right now
it´s so perfect for summer outfits
.
does anyone know where i can get those SILVER ARIZONA BIRKENSTOCK in Germany?
i like shoes that match our profession...
.
every now and then my tall spruce trees get visited by three shrieking hawks
spitting cast all over the place
but i do like their sounds

our small TROPICAL COLLECTION is now ready
.
bold brass elements for EAR STUDS and NECKLACES
a collection of amazing FANCY STONE RINGS
(you can choose one and get the ring custom made in rose or yellow gold)
and a new collaboration with OTCHIPOTCHI - the PLANT HANGER
.
also: new pieces are added now to the SAMPLE SALE
and we´ve made lot of new GLASS BEAD NECKLACES
.
and don´t forget:

do come to our SUMMER FAIR tomorrow, Saturday, 3 - 8pm
Am Gries 35, Stadtamhof, Regensburg

no matter what kind of weather we´re having
(the weather report offers four options so far: sun, clouds, rain, thunderstorm)
we already built a tent
and are busy baking up a storm now
.

a post for E
who is - together with her boyfriend - presenting her Fine Arts Diplom this minute
at the Academy of Fine Arts in Leipzig
you go, girl!!!
.
S will present her with a tiny antique Diplom box afterwards
(found at the flea market a few weeks ago)
filled with even tinier sweets
and since W and me can´t be there
this is our way to congratulate them both
with a candy coloured bouquet of geranium flowers
the cat says hi too - i guess
.
also:
some goodies from the STUDIO MEEZ plant swap arrived in the mail
finally managed to take some pictures of Alex´s wonderful PLANTERS
