The place to be : Petit Bazar & Petit Café

Get a glimpse of good taste ! Geert and Caroline have been collecting the most amazing stuff you can imagine. Caroline loves to make 'des pieces uniques' by customizing furniture, cushions etc ... They open up their house for the first time for only 4 unique days. Geert will give you the atmosphere of a real vintage café, playing awesome music. Meanwhile you can admire (and buy) the items of Caroline's collection. If you are a fan of the Provence and the typical 'vide-greniers', you surely will love this !

A small selection of my jewelry line will be displayed too !

;-)

Tomorrow we are heading towards Lago di Como -

see if Mr Decaffeinato is still around ;-)

Keeping it simple and minimalistic

Making some minimalistic chokers with pendants

Demolition Brothers Ltd

Hi, we look ever so cute, we know ... be we are

also known as the Demolition Brothers Ltd.

Let's have a look how we rearranged the garden :

Who needs eggplants ? We don't like that, yuk !

The newly planted Gaura ... a paradise made in heaven as it is (was) supported with lots of rope and we really love that. 

 It looks like a maze to us.

Trying to catch the flower of chives and my brother at the same time.

Ok ... now we can start to demolish our little nest.

Like little apes in our rosemarybush.

Just a little performance how we do our demolition job.

The kittens (now about 8 weeks old) where brought to animal shelter today and will be adopted very soon.

We trained them during 4 weeks to get used to people and not become wild just like their mother.

We hope our garden will recover ...

Classic with a twist

As still no 'details' can be crocheted - I am experimenting with other possibilities to uplift a classic beaded necklace into something more modern.

Here  I used some silver wire and seed beads to make an unsual detail.

These sodalite beads look a lot bigger on photo than they really are - they only mesure 4mm - I've twisted some silk yarn around the basic wire for a nice detail.

This uplifts this classid necklace into a more modern version.

Contrasts

Only a week ago we had 25 ° : bbq's, shorts, tops and slippers

This week we have 9.5 ° : stews, soup, trousers and a fleece !

Speaking about contrasts ...

(and what is happening to the climate ...)

Asymmetric beading instead of crocheting

Amazonite and aquamarine beads combined with matt glass

Eggshaped silk picasso jasper combined with lava and crackled mountaincristal.

Taking a closer look you would discover these white disco faceted jade beads that just look like golfballs.

Recycled one crochet pin to make this necklace with a crochet bead.

All one of a kind and on sale in my shop.
