Roses are red... and pink and white..

In goana vietii multe lucruri frumoase trec pe langa noi fara sa le simtim prezenta . De multe ori ,  poate alerg sa ajung la o programare, sau merg pe strada gandind la lista de cumparaturi sau pur si simplu sunt prea obosita sa privesc in jur. Acelea sunt clipele cand pierd din vedere un cer senin care-mi sta deasupra, parcurile pline de copii in vacanta si florile vesele in gradinite. Trebuie sa recunosc totusi ca sunt norocoasa sa am parinti care traiesc la casa. Iar minunile de flori din curtea mamei mele opresc timpul in loc cand le admiri..

In the rush of life , many beautiful things go by without feeling their presence. Often, maybe I am runing to get to an appointment, or walking down the street thinking about  the shopping list or I am simply too tired to look around. Those are the moments when you miss the blue sky above, parks full of children on vacation and cheerful flowers in the garden. I must admit though that I'm lucky to have parents living in a land house. And the gorgeous flowers from my mother's yard can stop the time when you admire them..










What you say? Do you love flowers? 
Voi ce spuneti ? Iubiti florile?

Lavender sachets

I finally did! I started re-doing my room. I know, a mounth later than i was supposed, but you know how it's said, better later than never. Last week I managed to paint the walls white. I have to say it was a though work because the wall surface was not uniform at all. I had to paint it 3 times to get a satisfactory white.. I don't have pictures right now, and I want to install the plinth before I'll show you the room..But this will have to wait untill I'll be able to get another week off.

In sfarsit am facut-o! Am inceput sa amenajez camera mea. Stiu, o luna mai tarziu decat era prevazut, dar stiti cum se spune, mai bine mai tarziu decat niciodata. Saptamana trecuta am reusit sa vopsesc peretii in alb. Trebuie sa va spun ca a fost o munca titanica pentru ca suprafata peretilor nu era delco uniforma. A trebuit sa dau 3 straturi de vopsea ca sa ajung la un alb satisfacator.. Nu am fotografii momentan, si vreau sa montez plinta inainte sa va arat camera.. Dar va trebui sa astept pana cand voi putea sa-mi mai iau o saptamana de concediu.


Meanwhile I want to show you the things I am working on right now... Sachets with lavender.. I bought dried lavender flowers and I'm using my immagination to create beautiful and romantic scented sachets so here you are the first pattern. 

Intre timp vreau sa va arat lucrurile la care lucrez acum... Saculeti cu lavanda.. Am cumparat flori uscate de lavanda si imi folosesc imaginatia pentru a crea saculeti parfumati frumosi si romantici asa ca acesta este primul model.


I used red cotton, white cotton lace and white cotton embroidery for this one, all tied up with red lace
Am folosit bumbac rosu, dantela alba din bumbac si broderie alba din bumbac, totul legat cu panglica rosie


You have to know that the beautiful white cotton emboridery is actually cut out from an old vintage cotton lace and applied by hand on the sachets
Trebuie sa stiti ca broderia cea alba, frumoasa, din bumbac este de fapt decupata dintr-o dantela veche si este aplicata de mana pe saculeti


Do you like them? You should feel the smell...
Va plac? Sa simtiti cat sunt de parfumati....



Hugs, Cristina
