Update

wow

I can hardly believe it has been a week since I posted!

sometimes I get distracted by life so much, I forget about the computer

so here is a little update about the past week

I have been painting: a chair, cabinet, pinboards and more little items

the chair looks better with a little seat cover I made for it ~ a super fast easy and fun project

I decorated a corner of my craftroom with a hearts wall of fame ~ hearts I got from dear (blog)friends

during a thriftstore adventure with Andrea from the lovely blog silence and noise

I found this kitsch but fun lamp ~ it makes me laugh every time I look at it

the shade came plain with the lamp, I added the layers of ribbon with a glue gun to spice it up

and make it more kitsch ~ who could not use some double kitsch some times?

not the latest version but well, a lovely issue of Mollie Makes in my M(ail)

and a screenprint from a Carl Larsson drawing I once found in Sweden

it all matches the wedding bunting I made last minute this June for our own wedding

and as we are in Canada now

we decorated our Christmas tree even before December 5th

I shipped some of our ornaments to Canada

and I am very happy to see some familiar and beloved glass ones back

including the shoe boxes I have decorated over the years to store the ornaments
