Holiday spirit

My mom came around in the afternoon and brought me a magazine with Christmas ideas (crafts, recipes, ...). I liked some of them, one of them is this one on a photo. I realized in the evening that first advent Sunday is not so very far away and that it would be time to make some decorations for windows (yes, they will be the same paper stars like last year but maybe of different color) and for front door, as well.

I intend to visit a Christmas fair at Waldorf school next Saturday where I will try to buy some organic vegetable seeds and hopefully some other nice things, too. I did not attend the workshop that was held there yesterday, and I hardly managed to stay at the course in the evening. This time we talked about typography, one of the most interesting topics for me. I have always liked different kinds of letters and every now or then I change the writing when I write on computer. It is interesting, that like an inclination to some colors also inclination to some different kind of writing changes through the years in my life.

I will stay at home tomorrow, hopefully I will fully recover by Saturday. Happy Friday & weekend, too!

Paper flowers

After the conference held yesterday in Ljubljana I went shopping. To relax a bit after all the stress I went through the last couple of weeks organizing the event. I actually more looked than bought. I saw a nice idea in a craft store - paper flowers. You might like them too, so here's the photo:Nice flowers for winter time or dark spaces in our homes. I saw some beautiful linen fabric but I have to figure out what I would sew and then buy it as it is not so cheap.

Another project is waiting for me this weekend. We will have our annual Street festival/feast on 7 June. Last year we had the first one, organized by my close neighbors and me & Mr Ž. Other neighbors were invited too but just for a drink and a quick chat. They are invited again this year. My close neighbors had actually not been aware that the feast was approaching so quickly. Each of us will prepare some food and I guess there will be too much of everything again. I have to check some cook books in the library and decide what to prepare. I know already that I will bake some bread and cookies but for the rest - I have to find something delicious and not too complicated. I will take care for the decoration and I am really looking forward to be creative again.
