Oh my!

These past few days have been really sunny and pleasant, but today tops them all - not only has the first pendant from the previous post been sold within 15 minutes of being posted, but I have been featured on Polymer Clay Daily, by wonderful Cynthia Tinapple. I couldn't be happier! 

Spring gardens blossoming

Very flowery mood over here. I have even planted some flowers on the balcony! (I have a red thumb, hence my excitement). I am truly enjoying this spring and all the sunshine. The thing I love about Holland is the time the sun sets during the warmer part of the year - we are currently at 9pm! Woohoo!

Therefore, I give you a few gardens (some of which, you can also find in the shoppe)

Here I almost went into summer - think orient, sipping cold tea under a canopy on a fresh warm summer evening...

Hope you are enjoying your spring as well!

Spring tree

Look what I got yesterday!

My boyfriend made it for me. It's made of wood and painted white and can be taken out of the base. I am loving it! It's supposed to be for this:

...but I am loving it as decoration on its own.

Woohoo! Spring is being so good to me so far (bows to the boyfriend as well :D)

Birds of sunshine

Hey there! Sunshine is here and I am so happy. I really thrive in the sunshine. It's been busy over here and there are a few little projects on the way, inspired by various colourful things out there. But more about that in some of the next posts. For now, I give you the sunshine burdie (just because the colour reminds me of the seaside):

It's a polymer clay brooch which I made just for myself because I felt sunny. Hope you like.

Happy Easter!

Hristos vaskrse! 

My eggs turned out far more pastel than they were meant to be, but I still like them.

But just look at these!

Jungle is massive!

After a long and hard battle with a man-flu type of cold (in other words - I am the worst whiner when I get sick), I am back to posting ;)

Despite my horrendous cold, I was actually quite busy, and apart from a few bits and pieces that I'll show you in one of the next posts, I have finished a new jewellery collection! Woohoo!

As you can see, it's called "Jungle is massive", which only means that I am still into that tribal groove and going towards my most beloved huge, enormous, oversized jewellery (I want it even bigger, believe you me). I am loving crochet for allowing me to go huge and stay light.

Most pieces are already in the shoppe, and now I let you browse and I hope you like what you see. (And, of course, I would love to hear what you think)

Cheers!

First the earrings:

This pic is to show you the size:

Then rings:

Bracelets/bangles:

And finally, my favourites of the collection - necklaces:

6 things about me

Nela invited me to this game and I find it fun. So, the rules are: write six random things about yourself and illustrate them with a photo, so you would get to know other bloggers better.

Well, here goes:

1. I am a complete salt lover, I eat very salty food which mostly no one else can eat. I'm not much into sweets, but salt I love. Yep, bad for you, I know, but so are cigarettes and I smoke, too. Seems I'm into organ failure ;)

2. I am a complete sucker for colours, that is, certain colour combinations (they can be monochromatic as well), they make me weirdly happy and inspire me immensely. On that topic, I strongly dislike blue house-ware of any sort, while blue is one of my favourite colours in my wardrobe, and on the other hand - I never wear yellow, but love it in the house. Hmmm...

3. I am terrified of creepy crawlies, and pathologically so. Once I was late for work because I didn't dare go into the bathroom where I saw a bug. I had to call a friend to come and kill it. Seriously. I can't even kill them, I'm that terrified.

4. I used to have a "splav" (like a raft house) on river Sava, in Belgrade. My dream house has to be next to water and with loads of trees and a porch, I don't care about much else. I may never get it, but that was close enough ;) I love water and trees.

5. When the weather is nice, I love nothing better than to sit outside a cafe and watch people go by. The only other thing that relaxes me as much is driving or being driven (in whatever).(The picture is for Nela, since it was taken at Ada Safari).

6. I only comb my hair when I wash it. It's horrible, I know, but I really don't like combing it. And, yes, that's me in the picture.

So, I finish with a gross random fact and tag: beademecum, Doreen and Fiona
