:: Paper Snowflakes II

From Peppersprouts (via Poppytalk). Not made of paper but out of acrylic. It kills me.

:: Totally lost

Today I actually wanted to spend not much time in the internet but Cafe Cartolina drew my breath away. I forget about time, about doing the laundry, about everything. Very spectacular findings. Not to mention the fabulous stationary they design. They are very unique and unseen. I'm a sucker for such things.
Until sunday is a great giveaway of the christmas cards. Visit and dance!

:: Trash Thursday

A window I walked by on the way to one of my favourite flower shops. They held their annual christmas flower show last weekend which is always a hit and quite a tradition. Although it was quite mild - about 14° - I had my first Glühwein.

:: I love a good beard

Surprisingly mustaches in all kinds and forms are very popular. To commemorate men finest hairy parts I came up with this little pillow. I know we see them on mugs and nearly everywhere else but I had to eternalize them in a way. The truth is, I like a good beard.

:: Chic & cheap: paper snowflakes

This year I was looking for some simple chic windows decorations. Cut paper snowflakes seem to be perfect if you don't want to buy new decorations but also want something new. As a child we used to cut these stars at kindergarden. You can use golden and silver foil as well.
Here's a little pic and DIY from Jelene.

Christmas decoration is always a challenge. Of course you can buy a whole deco concept but I think especially for christmas you have to make something on your own. It's the season to be crafty. And it's cheap.

:: Thursday trash

OMG, I'm sitting here - after 5 hours stitching - surfing through the net and searching ebay for a folkloristic jacket when I found at Creature Comforts these pics by Dottie Angel reminding me of my thursday trash column. I know it's late, thursday is almost over here at Berlin but I was so absorbed in doing some research for my christmas decoration that I nearly forgot. Tomorrow more about a simple but very decorative window deco DIY. And about my moustache project.

:: Presents from Bejing

Look what I found in my post box today: fabrics to die for and some nice buttons. So little things to brighten up a grey november day.
