Hi my Dears!!!! The moving is completed!!! I've opened all the boxes and all our stuff is in place : we have a cosy place to call home again!!!! HURRAY!!!! In the meantime I crafted a little, as some gifts were requested … I had the joy to open my beads boxes and create a couple of beaded bracelets … The first one had to be done with neutral colours ... … while the second one was just up to me, so I went for blues … … then I crocheted two pairs of fingerless Minions mitts (free pattern found  here ) for a couple of twins brothers (7 years old!) who are going to celebrate their birthday this coming Sunday … So, I had some fun in creating all these little gifts, all handmade with love!!! I'll be here in my place very soon : no more "excuses" for delay after delay!!! xxxx, Alessandra

You have to crochet some tiny circles in autumnal shades... Then add some velvety beads... Use some more yarn (little stitching), a piece of string and a pair of scissors... At this point you can start the assembling process... ....and yes, a nice vintage button and a cotton tassel will do!!! Just few more details... Do you like it??? ;oD It's so funny I did something like this here in JK, where it's always Summer (split in wet season and dry season!!!)..... See you soon, xxxx Today I join  creative jewish mom   !!!

... A brand new owl : Miss Owllure! As the other owls of my nest, she is a gift for a friend of mine and she already left my home!! She is different from Miss Owlette and Miss Owloween for just one thing.... Infact, there is no cage dangling from her claws, but a clock! I think it's good, anyway! I didn't have any more cages in my drawer...Just some bycicles, the Eiffel Tower, some butterflies and some flowers....I thought the clock had a good chance to have a perfect fit with my owl! I'm in love with these fish! What do you think? I'm so excited about the velvety effect! Look how different they are even from this one This one is amazing, too, but it's not so warm, so brilliantly colourful....!!! Well, i'm so happy with the new version! New handknitted bracelets! They didn't take a long time to knit : it was much longer the customizing time, oh yes! The result is attractive and I hope that tomorrow at the bazaar they will catch some ...
