Pastels #2

for the love of pastel colors again...
fabric, ribbon and my new pie dish in lovely pastel shades


oilcloth found at Ahléns


the wonderful Greengate pie dish is a dear belated birthdaygift I got from my brother and his girlfriend

~ love ~


all ribbons and fabric (two of them from Tilda) found in Sweden
in vintage shops, crafstores and more lovely places

I am flying home today
hope security will allow me to take all these lovelies with me... cross my fingers

~ have a lovely new week! ~

    Hi Maaike!

    Thank you for your comment! I love the beautiful fabric and ribbons! I can never find anything like that in vintage shops... what are you going to make with them?

    Alhoewel ik veel met heldere kleuren werk, zijn pastels ook zeker mijn favoriet, mooi!

    I love everything but especially the pie dish and the oilcloth. The website of Ahlens is amazing.
    All your treasures are so pretty that I am sure that security will let you pass with no problems!

    De stofjes zijn geweldig, maar de ovenschotel vind ik echt fantastisch. Wat een leuk verjaardagscadeau.

    hey maaike,

    ik moest weer even bijlezen op je blog.
    Maar ow,ow,ow, wat heb je weer mooie dingen staan!!
    vooral de hexagons wat je aan het maken bent. In die geel/groene kleuren....PRACHTIG!! echt waar!
    en wat heerlijk dat je 'even' naar zweden bent geweest.
    Alle mooie stofjes en lintjes veilig in nederland gekregen? ben benieuwd!

    Fijne week!

    Hi! Pastels always makes me melt... But in reality I am NOT a pastel person. But still they make me melt... And Swedish goodies... Ahlens is such a nice place, nothing like that here.

    PhotoShop. Should have guessed. Don't have PhotoShop anymore. Got to find an alternative. I have seen others make collage and I think they use Picasa. Got to investigate more. Thanks for stopping by. Kram.

    Sorry, I am completely brain dead... Read Power Point but brain thought Photo Shop. I really need to go to bed and get some rest I think... Completely confused. Now I am with you. I will absolutely give it a go. Great idea! Thanks Maaike. (alone with my 3 kids for a few days AND working... tired and with tired comes errors... Ha ha ha!)
