new year

wish you a very happy, peaceful, light and exciting new one!

here is something we made the last days, she wanted a market like in 1001 fairy-tales.

and we made fortune cookies for tonight.

. . .

.

sometimes it's hard to decide in which order to start.

library

sorting out inbetween years.
found some old pictures taken in the library in hamburg where they have every vogue starting from the fifties.
those days when the rare visits at that place had to be enough inspiration before we had the www.
made me happy that i still like what i picked up many years ago, i still would like to make and have both.

the bv bag ad says: when your own initials are enough

merry christmas

to you!

we are spending cozy & calm days with family and friends.

hope you are all very well!

her farm

her all time companions, her beloved animals and today as she was in a total christmas mood she chose a white dress for our dinner tonight and even the dolls were invited to take part - holiday happiness!

making cookies, presents and a dinner for friends, that has been our sunday.

i wish there will be snow again soon.

pearl embroidery found at a fleamarket.

upside down

i feel like i have nearly adjusted back to everyday life!
we had a good weekend and friday has been officially my last working day for the movie we finished shooting monday night!
it is so good to be back and my lists for the holiday preparations, things that had to be done for home, several crafting projects and collaborations with friends are endless but i am really looking forward to be able to make my own schedule again.

Lou has two new friends, they are siblings, clever, sweet and wild and i like their socks!

blankets

accidentally i found a nice new shop yesterday here in berlin. during the summer they sell organic ice cream and now in winter warm blankets.
today i got a link from a friend where i found this wonderful shawl today. samare.
i am totally inspired by that technique and the bright colours.

all kinds of blankets are the perfect things to have and make during winter.

light creature

yesterday nights lightening for our film.
reminded me somehow of myiasaki's totoro.

good night

yesterday night Lou got her advent calendar, the bags i needed 3 years to finish, the first years i cheated and operated with less then 24.
but today i got a red calendar too, the first picture showed the small green bag she got today.

good night. it's a very cold night here, hope you all have a warm home like we do.
