Hello my dear blogger friends! Hello my dear and forgotten blog! actually is not I forgot my blog (or you my friends), just I could not find the time to post everything I´ve been crafting and leave you some love on your blogs...
Christmas is almost here!! where did the whole year go??? I love Christmas season, so many sweet childhood memories... besides making some cards I´ve been doing some crafts too!
Here I am to show you a Christmas bunting I made a few days ago
let me tell you I LOVE how it turned out, my pictures are not good (sorry about that!), but believe me it looks better IRL.
I took some pages from an old book and printed the images (all from The Graphics Fairy) directly on the pages, cut them in a flag-like shape and added a few sparkling details: sequins, glass seed beads, glitter glue; colored some parts of the images with colored pencils and used a knotted string to hung it.
It was so easy and fun to make I´m thinking to do more of them to decorate my place all year round! here you have a few more pictures:
On my cooking side I´ve been trying a few baking recipes I had spotted here and there. In particular I made these super-wonderful chocolate cookies (you can find the recipe here) and some beer breads (using this recipe). Hope you try them too! love the smell of my house when I find the time to bake, the cookies are wonderful and the bread is simply amazing!
Next week I´ll take a few day off, so I hope I can find the time to blog a bit more and to visit you too! Thank you for stopping by, have a wonderful day!
It looks like Christmas!
