These last days I was reading a book. I couldn't wait to sit down in the evening and start reading again. Chloë by Freya North. Reviews don't give it any credits but I liked it. One of those fairytales. I used to live in one. Some time ago. Two days ago I played with the paper again; I found so many magnificent blogs about kirigami. Japanese paper folding and cutting. People make amazing things. I started with the little elephants. Tutorial was found here. I was invited to go to Ikea tomorrow. Of course I didn't say no. I will be back behind the screen on Friday, hopefully. :)
Also some plants started to bloom at this time of a year. Amaryllis. Two of them. Red and pink-white. Both with two stems. And both orchids, too. Pink and white. And one of the cacti. White. Lovely.

Cozyness
It started to snow. It is a total chaos out there on the streets. I might make a little snowman in front of my door in the afternoon. Shoveling the snow away from the street in front of my house is waiting for me this afternoon. Winter's tale.

I love the little elephants, they are so cute and fun. I will have to show these to my daughter - she is very crafty and happens to love elephants.
It is snowing here as well, finally. Like real snow, in a holiday picture. And it is supposed to get really cold. The roads here were awful - it usually takes 12 minutes to get to work, today it took 35 minutes. But I do like the snow a lot!
Hello I came across your blog.
That elephant Kirigami is very interesting.
