New Year Diaries

End of year means a new year, a new year means a new diary, it means decoupage! Every year I decorate 3-4 diaries with a very different images, but this one - medieval book illustrations - is always in presence. I bought this paper two years ago in some museum in Munich and use everywhere since. Sorry to bore you with the repeats but I love this paper to bits!

Of course I can't stay away from a vintage theme! This year it's going to be Americana and Wild West. Hope I haven't overdone ageing!.. Pict 990 Pict 991

New Napkins Giveaway

Xmas is closer and crafters are busier! I decided it's time to do a new giveaway. Set of 10 napkins, 7-10 of each variety to be send to you!

The rules are the same:

- there is no need to be my "follower", but you need to write a comment with the list of napkins you would like to get;

- anyone could claim up to 10 napkins, only one of each variety;

- it is on the "first come, first served" basis;

- the end of action - 12 December;

- your postal address should be send to my e-mail address. If you have already took part in my giveaways I might still have your address.

- if you get less then 10 napkins I will add some of my choice so you still will have 10 items.

Take your pick!

The Tray "Autumn Bouquet"

I was away for a while, then unwell with a cold... Today the weather was more suitable for making photos so I pull myself together and this is a result - finished tray.



I called it "Autumn Bouquet" because of rich colours and subtle hues of the season, that's why shading and craquelure on the tray are very delicate. It feels like autumn to me...

Another One!

Here we are again! I am working hard, this is another one!



I wanted it to look more 50's (or 60's?) that's why such a choice of motive and bold colours.

CD Rack "Old Music"

I've bought two CD rack blanks recently and started to work on them straight away! This is the first one, rather simple affair - a well known napkin and a old sheet of music (original!) inside.

The tray "Lilac Haze"



This is my first work with a new tray blank. I like the blank, its simple shape may be decorated in any style. I played safe with the first one - a bunch of flowers is the best!

Gone Felting!

Dear All! As you may aready know I took up a new craft - wet felting. It's very exciting and I am happy to share it with anyone interested. But I understand that "anyone" doesn't mean "everyone"! So I've decided to separate decoupage and felting and started a new blog about felting and named it appropriate Gone Felting!
