J'adore!

Around the Clay Cafe today

Painting pottery is only one of the reason why I go to the Clay Cafe.....

Fantabulous Surprise

The other week O came home with a huge gift, in silver paper and a bow on top.

After opening, it revealed this:

and a bunch of these:

I guess this girl can catch a hint and so I have been making things like this lately

But to be fair, when I asked him in utter shock, for what reason he got me such a huge gift. (no birthday or any days lurking around!) He smiled and said:" just because! And didn't you say ages ago that you want one of these?"
I guess I did :D

Confession

I have been shopping a lot lately! First I bought the above knitting needles. It is a small interchangeable set of circular needles... and all I have to say is that I need to get more!

But more importantly I needed to get some yarn to use the gorgeous needles

So I got some wool. All from Nurturing Fibres, one of a kind yarns. I admit I got a bit carried away.

And I promise I will stop buying stuff now- well just after I bought a basket to store my newly aquired stash ;)

J'adore!

More gorgeousness from the Mother City...

This time: around my home

(ps all the photos were taken last week- its rainy around here at the moment)

And which corners of your city do you adore?

Review of my Week

At the beginning of this week spring seemed to be fading out- the last spring flowers are slowly vanishing and the summer blooms are starting to pop up- and it was really hot. Proper swimming pool- kinda hot. I was about to pack away my winter cardigans- and then at the end of the week the weather took a sudden turn, and brought winter like rains and winds from the antarctic. (hence the last photo)
While non of us are clear what is happening to the seasons, i went to the clay cafe, spent time at the library-planing and plotting, swam (i just simply couldn't resist!),held girls luncheons, did some test knitting, went shopping and got a fabulous surprise gift! ( i will tell you about my shopping spree and my fantabulous gift in the week!)

How was your week?

Enjoy the rest of your weekend! xo

Weekword

I like holey things.

So when Linda Sue chose HOLE as the week word- there was lots I could think of. Like my jewellery- rings/chains/earrings are often  a string of holes ... or this barnacle shell - one of my favourite treasures. I was so excited, I posted it on Wednesday.

In fact I like holes so much that I'm even knitting them at the moment:

(others do call it lace knitting)
